Continuing advances and reduced costs in computational power, graphics and network bandwidth let 3D immersive multi‐user Virtual Worlds (VWs) become increasingly accessible while offering an improved and engaging quality ...

The clinical use of ionizing radiation to obtain a necrosing or cytotoxic radiobiological effect on tumoral lesions requires wide and complex physical and dosimetrical procedures. In particular, it is necessary to calculate ...

Nella notte tra il 24 e 25 agosto del 79 d.C. villaggi e città vennero distrutti e migliaia di persone persero la vita per l' improvvisa eruzione del Vesuvio. Le rovine di Pompei ed Ercolano, sepolte e conservate dai ...

The Dissertation Quantumness of Gaussian and non-Gaussian states in the op- tical domain collects my personal both theoretical and experimental contribu- tions, in the context of the Quantum Information theory in continuous ...

This dissertation was carried out within the framework of the Quantum Information (QI). In particular, I have analyzed the main aspects: the protocol, the quantum states, the conditional measurements, and the decoherence. The ...

The cell membrane functions as a platform for the assembly of many signal transduction pathways and provides an additional level of regulation in cell signaling networks. The complex dynamic structure of the plasma membrane ...

In this work we investigate some aspects of the physics of strongly correlated systems by taking into account both electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions as basic mechanisms for reproducing electronic correlations ...

This PhD work describes the development of different Michael and Michael type processes employing different bifunctional organocatalysts. All the processes studied involved a non-covalent activation of the substrates ...

Computational chemistry represents today a valid and fast tool for the research of new compounds with potential biological activity. The analysis of ligand-macromolecule interactions and the evaluation of possible “binding ...

Sensitive effect determination, the understanding of molecular toxicity mechanisms and the discovery of novel biochemical biomarkers are some of the major challenges in ecotoxicology in dealing with chemicals in the ...
