Search for heavy neutral lepton production in K+ decays to positrons
2020
A search for heavy neutral lepton ($N$) production in $K^+\to e^+N$ decays using the data sample collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2017--2018 is reported. Upper limits of the extended neutrino mixing matrix element $|U_{e4}|^2$ are established at the level of $10^{-9}$ over most of the accessible heavy neutral lepton mass range 144--462 MeV/$c^2$, with the assumption that the lifetime exceeds 50 ns. These limits improve significantly upon those of previous production and decay searches. The $|U_{e4}|^2$ range favoured by Big Bang Nucleosynthesis is excluded up to a mass of about 340 MeV/$c^2$.
Ponti abitati, tipologie complesse - Intervista a Michele Sbacchi
2009
Si tratta di una intervista a Michele Sbacchi, docente del Workshop La casa ponte, uno dei 30 workshop estivi organizzati dalla Università IUAV nel 2009. Sbacchi spiega i suoi interessi di ricerca ed il suo lavoro di architetto, che lo vede impegnato nella costa sud della Sicilia. Nella seconda parte si descrive il tema del workshop e le motivazioni che hanno spinto a questa tema.
Cytotoxic secondary metabolites from the endophytic fungus Aspergillus versicolor KU258497
2018
Abstract Two new isocoumarin dimers (1 and 2) and one new dihydroquinolone derivative (3) were isolated from Aspergillus versicolor, an endophyte derived from leaves of the Egyptian water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes (Pontederiaceae), together with ten other known metabolites. Chemical structures of the isolated metabolites were determined based on HRESIMS, extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The relative and absolute configurations of the new natural products were established by ROESY and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy, respectively. The axial chirality of the isocoumarin 7,7′-homodimers (1 and 2) was deduced by TDDFT-ECD calculations. All isolated compounds were asses…

Esegesi strutturale, stilistica ed ermeneutica dell'opera "Così fan tutte" di Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart su libretto di Lorenzo Daponte
Della musica e delle parole
2018
This article explores the relations between music and poetry, starting form Rousseau's theory of the origin of languages. Two main distinctions are considered: when poetry is written before music, and when music is written before poetry. "Non più andrai farfallone amoroso" by Daponte and Mozart is examined as an example of the first strategy; "Yesterday" by Paul McCartney as an example of the second one.
[Diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of "myocardial bridging": state of the art and unresolved issues].
2013
The current gold standard for the diagnosis of myocardial bridging is conventional coronary angiography; however, it shows only indirect signs of the disease, due to the systolic compression of the artery caused by the myocardial bridge with narrowing of the lumen and diastolic relaxation. On the other hand, computed tomography coronary angiography, even though exposing to radiation, clearly demonstrates the intramural course, the overlying muscular bands and the surrounding tissues also in asymptomatic patients and in absence of systolic compression. The prognosis of patients with myocardial bridge is usually good, but further studies are needed to evaluate the long-term prognosis of these…
Nonzero |U_e3| from charged lepton corrections and the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle
2013
After the successful determination of the reactor neutrino mixing angle theta(13) not equal 0.16 not equal 0, a new feature suggested by the current neutrino oscillation data is a sizeable deviation of the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle theta(23) from pi/4. Using the fact that the neutrino mixing matrix U = (UeU nu)-U-dagger, where U-e and U-nu result from the diagonalisation of the charged lepton and neutrino mass matrices, and assuming that U-nu has a i) bimaximal (BM), H) tri-bimaximal (TBM) form, or else Hi) corresponds to the conservation of the lepton charge L' = L-e - L mu - L-tau (LC), we investigate quantitatively what are the minimal forms of U-e, in terms of angles and phases …
Neutrino counting experiments and non-unitarity from LEP and future experiments
2020
Non-unitarity of the neutrino mixing matrix is expected in many scenarios with physics beyond the Standard Model. Motivated by the search for deviations from unitary, we study two neutrino counting observables: the neutrino-antineutrino gamma process and the invisible $Z$ boson decay into neutrinos. We report on new constraints for non-unitarity coming from the first of this observables. We study the potential constraints that future collider experiments will give from the invisible decay of the Z boson, that will be measured with improved precision.
Heavy Neutrinos and Lepton Flavour Violation in Left-Right Symmetric Models at the LHC
2012
We discuss lepton flavour violating processes induced in the production and decay of heavy right-handed neutrinos at the LHC. Such particles appear in left-right symmetrical extensions of the Standard Model as the messengers of neutrino mass generation, and can have masses at the TeV scale. We determine the expected sensitivity on the right-handed neutrino mixing matrix, as well as on the right-handed gauge boson and heavy neutrino masses. By comparing the sensitivity of the LHC with that of searches for low energy LFV processes, we identify favourable areas of the parameter space to explore the complementarity between LFV at low and high energies.
Dirac neutrinos from flavor symmetry
2013
We present a model where Majorana neutrino mass terms are forbidden by the flavor symmetry group Delta(27). Neutrinos are Dirac fermions and their masses arise in the same way as that of the charged fermions, due to very small Yukawa couplings. The model fits current neutrino oscillation data and correlates the octant of the atmospheric angle with the magnitude of the lightest neutrino mass, with maximal mixing excluded for any neutrino mass
