Superconductivity in S/F hybrids: a Scanning Probe Microscopy study of orbital interaction
(2016-04-14)
In the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau (G-L) theory [1], conventional superconductors are classified in type I and type II, based on the value the G-L parameter... [edited by Author]
Low and high field Magnetic Resonance Imaging and its application in food science and plants
(2018-11-20)
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are techniques that have seen a remarkable success and a fast growth over the past decades.
Thanks to its non-invasivity and non-descrutivity, the MRI ...
Graphene and carbon nanotubes in transistors, diodes and field emission devices
(2017-03-22)
Since their discovery, graphene and carbon nanotubes have been playing an important role in nanoscience and nanotechnology thanks to their extraordinary physical and chemical properties.
With silicon-based electronics ...
Nb nanoporous ultrathin films: matching effects and interconnected wires
(2012-03-03)
When the applied magnetic field is higher than the lower critical field but below
the upper critical field, a type-II superconductor allows magnetic flux to penetrate it
in the form of vortices, a tiny normal area surrounded ...
Electrical and thermal transport properties of superconducting materials relevant for applications
(2018-07-06)
Superconducting materials are used in several applications among which the large-scale ones take advantage of the high energy transport capabilities of superconductors due to the low losses in electrical conduction. From ...
Study of the hadronic current in the neutrino interactions of the OPERA experiment
(2013-04-22)
The OPERA experiment was designed to observe the appearance of the vr in a pure
beam ofvll (CNGS). The evidence ofthe appearance signal is provided by the detection
of the daughter particles produced in the decay of charged ...
Improvements in the acoustical modelling of traffic noise prediction: theoretical and experimental results
(2011-04-21)
Traffic acoustical noise is one of the most important component of the urban environmental pollution in densely populated areas all over the world.
A very recent ACI-Censis study [1] on Italian urban areas shows that car ...
Development of an adaptive hierarchical multi-scale approach for the assessment, planning and prevention of the impact on anthropic and natural environments due to the exceeding of radon gas concentrations above threshold values and the corresponding risk associated to indoor radon exposures
(2018-04-17)
Human exposure to natural Naturally Occurring Ionizing Radiation (NOIR), as that one related to Radon and
its progeny, has been established as harmful by the worldwide scientific community and acknowledged by
many international ...
Low-frequency noise spectroscopy as an effective tool for electric transport analysis
(2018-07-09)
In this work, several experiments and analyses performed by means of noise spectroscopy, on a broad typology of materials and compounds, are presented. Structural, DC electrical transport and noise properties are exposed ...
The neutrino interaction analysis chain in OPERA
(2011-04-20)
The aim of the OPERA experiment is to provide a “smoking-gun” proof of neutrino oscillations, through the detection of the appearance signal of ντ’s in an initially pure νμ beam. The beam is produced at CERN, 732 Km far ...
