Millimeter wave absorption by confined acoustic modes in CdSe/CdTe core-shell quantum dots
2007
International audience; Taking advantage of the specific core-shell charge separation structure in the CdSe/CdTe core-shell Type-II quantum dots (QDs), we experimentally observed the resonant-enhanced dipolar interaction between millimeter-wave (MMW) photons and their corresponding (l = 1) confined acoustic phonons. With proper choice of size, the absorption band can be tuned to desired frequency of MMW imaging. Exploiting this characteristic absorption, in a fiber-scanned MMW imaging system, we demonstrated the feasibility of CdSe/CdTe QDs as the contrast agents of MMW imaging.
The study of neutron-rich nuclei production in the region of the closed shell N=126 in the multi-nucleon transfer reaction 136Xe+208Pb
2015
Expérience LNL/PRISMA; International audience; The unexplored area of heavy neutron rich nuclei is extremely important for nuclearastrophysics investigations and, in particular, for the understanding of the r-process ofastrophysical nucleogenesis. For the production of heavy neutron rich nuclei located along theneutron closed shell N=126 (probably the last "waiting point" in the r-process of nucleosynthesis)the low-energy multi-nucleon transfer reaction 136Xe+208Pb at Elab=870MeV was explored.Due to the stabilizing eect of the closed neutron shells in both nuclei, N=82 and N=126, andthe rather favorable proton transfer from lead to xenon, the light fragments formed in this processare well b…
Hydration dependent dynamics in sol-gel encapsulated myoglobin.
2008
In this work we study the effect of hydration on the dynamics of a protein in confined geometry, i.e. encapsulated in a porous silica matrix. Using elastic neutron scattering we investigate the temperature dependence of the mean square displacements of non-exchangeable hydrogen atoms of sol-gel encapsulated met-myoglobin. The study is extended to samples at 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 g water/g protein fractions and comparison is made with met-myoglobin powders at the same average hydration and with a dry powder sample. Elastic data are analysed using a model of dynamical heterogeneity to take into account deviations of elastic intensity from gaussian behaviour in a large momentum transfer range and r…
Co-production of Hydrogen and Methane From the Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste in a Pilot Scale Dark Fermenter and Methanogenic Biofilm Rea…
2018
The co-production of biohydrogen and methane from the organic fraction of municipal solid waste was investigated using a two-stage AD system, composed of a pilot scale dark fermenter (DF) and a continuous methanogenic biofilm reactor. From the DF process, a biohydrogen yield of 41.7 (± 2.3) ml H2/gVSadded was achieved. The liquid DF effluent (DFE) was rich in short chain volatile fatty acids, i.e., mainly acetic and butyric acid. The DFE was valorized by producing methane in the methanogenic biofilm reactor. Two methanogenic biofilm reactors were used to assess the biotic and abiotic role of the DFE on the performance of the reactors. Regardless of the different DFE feeding (i.e., biotic an…
I RODITORI DI CAVA MONTICINO (BRISIGHELLA, RA)
2021
Rodents are the most abundant group of small mammals occurring in Brisighella deposits. They are represented by 12 species in total, among which 2 hamsters (Apocricetus cf. barrierei and Ruscinomys cf. lasallei), 2 dormice (Muscardinus sp. and Myomimus sp.), 1 porcupine (Hystrix (Hystrix) depereti), 2 sciurids (Atlantoxerus cf. rhodius and Hylopetes sp.) and 5 species of muridae (Apodemus cf. gudrunae, Centralomys benericettii, Occitanomys sp, Paraethomys meini and Stephanomys debruijni). This association suggests a relatively dry open environment, interrupted by forest environment with more or less dense underground.
Collective features of Cr and Fe isotopes
2014
The question of the sudden increase of collectivity in neutron-rich nuclei when approaching N = 40 has recently interested both experimentalists and theorists. In this paper we study the development of collectivity along the chromium and iron isotopic chains. The calculations are performed within two different perspectives, namely, the proton-neutron interacting boson model (IBM-2) and interacting shell model (ISM) and compared with the available experimental data. The onset of collectivity is studied through nuclear quantities and observables that suggest differences in the nuclear structure of Cr and Fe isotopical chains. Furthermore, a prediction for the shape transition from a spherical…
Espungere e interpretare: a proposito dell’esodo di Ifigenia in Aulide
2014
L’articolo mostra che l’espunzione dell’esodo di Ifigenia in Aulide, su cui concordano quasi tutti gli editori, può comportare conseguenze decisive sul piano dell’interpretazione della tragedia. Infatti, in alcuni studi recenti, basati sull’edizione Kovacs (Loeb Classical Library, London 2002), che espunge la parte finale relativa al racconto del messaggero con la sostituzione animale, la morte di Ifigenia viene considerata la vera conclusione della tragedia. Da qui è derivata un’interpretazione in chiave politica del sacrificio, secondo la quale, conclusasi negativamente la guerra con Sparta e in assenza di una valida classe dirigente, la morte di un’innocente sarebbe necessaria alla reali…
Metafora i piękno w "Iliadzie" Homera
2017
Iliada Homera jest wielowarstwową opowieścią o heroicznej przeszłości achajskiej arystokracji. Choć skażeni winą, ate, choć zaangażowani w niesprawiedliwą, łupieżczą wojnę, bohaterowie achajskiej historii dosięgają wzoru cnoty, arete – męstwa połączonego z mądrością. Wina zarówno Achajów – Achillesa i Agamemnona, jak i Trojan – Parysa i Hektora, przesłania oraz odbiera im część chwały, jaka winna wypływać z mądrego męstwa połączonego z szacunkiem dla zwyciężonych. Wina zrodzona z pokusy, której nie mogą się oprzeć jako śmiertelni, paradoksalnie obarcza ich odpowiedzialnością za zło, nad którym nie panują. Jednak spadająca na nich kara staje się ekspiacją i aktem odzyskania heroicznej cnoty.…
Ultrastructure of the Interlamellar Membranes of the Nacre of the Bivalve Pteria hirundo, Determined by Immunolabelling.
2015
The current model for the ultrastructure of the interlamellar membranes of molluscan nacre imply that they consist of a core of aligned chitin fibers surrounded on both sides by acidic proteins. This model was based on observations taken on previously demineralized shells, where the original structure had disappeared. Despite other earlier claims, no direct observations exist in which the different components can be unequivocally discriminated. We have applied different labeling protocols on non-demineralized nacreous shells of the bivalve Pteria. With this method, we have revealed the disposition and nature of the different fibers of the interlamellar membranes that can be observed on the …
