Pharmaceuticals can exist in many solid forms, which can have different physical and chemical properties. These solid forms include polymorphs, solvates, amorphous, and hydrates. Particularly, hydration process can be qu...

Abstract: Charge Coupled Devices (CCD) are being used for reactor neutrino experiments and have already demonstrated their potential in constraining new physics models. The prospect of a Skipper-CCD experiment looking fo...

Neutron star crusts are studied using a classical molecular dynamics model developed for heavy-ion reactions. After the model is shown to produce a plethora of the so-called pasta shapes, a series of techniques borrowed ...

Having in mind its future extension for theoretical investigations related to charmed nuclei, we develop a relativistic formalism for the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) of single-λ hypernuclei in the framework of the inde...

A promising energy range to look for angular correlations between cosmic rays of extragalactic origin and their sources is at the highest energies, above a few tens of EeV (1 EeV ≡ 1018 eV). Despite the flux of these p...

INFN-CHNet is the cultural heritage network of the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) and is constituted by units from Italy and from outside Europe, one of them at Universidad Nacional de San Martín (...

We have built a short Foucault pendulum of 1-m length. The aim of this work was to increase the sensitivity to elliptical trajectories from other longer pendula. The design was a semi-rigid pendulum that rolls over a sma...

We find that for adsorbed terephthalic acid (TPA) molecules surface Sn alloying deactivates the Cu(001) surface by decoupling the adsorbed molecules from the substrate. This effect is investigated for the case of the 0.5...

We systematically study several classical-quantum correspondence properties of the dissipative modifiedkicked rotator, a paradigmatic ratchet model. We explore the behavior of the asymptotic currents for finite effvalues...

Several metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have been recently employed in optoelectronic devices due to the unique properties of the MOF materials that result in enhanced performance and stability. In this work, the...

Frontal and parietal regions are associated with some of the most complex cognitive functions,and several frontoparietal resting state networks can be observed in wakefulness. We used functional magnetic resonance imagin...

Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is an organochlorine pollutant widely distributed in the environment around the entire world. Previous reports from our group and others have demonstrated that this compound is as an endocrine dis...

The probability distribution function for an out of equilibrium system may sometimes be approximated by a physically motivated "trial" distribution. A particularly interesting case is when a driven system (e.g., active m...

When polymers are irradiated with heavy ions new chemical groups are created in a few microns of the material. The irradiation changed the polarity and wettability on the surface so that could enhance the biocompatibilit...

The performance of membrane electrode assembly (MEA) prepared with PtRu nanoparticles supported on a mesoporous carbon as anode catalyst are presented and compared against PtRu synthesized over Vulcan carbon. Polarizatio...

The ferromagnetic amorphous phase in rapidly solidified Nd60Fe30Al10 glass forming alloys is investigated in melt spun ribbons (100 µm thick) and in chill cast cylinders (2 mm diameter). The amorphous resulting for thes...

The amorphous reduction product of the oxide ion conductor La2Mo2O9 was previously shown to be a good, sulphur-tolerant, anode material for solid oxide fuel cell devices (X. C. Lu, J. H. Zhu, J. Electrochem. Soc., 2008, ...

We study non-equilibrium electron transport through a quantum impurity coupled to metallic leads using the equation of motion technique at finite temperature T . Assuming that the interactions are taking place solely in ...

The redistribution of high energy alpha particles due to internal kink modes is studied in plasmas with ITER-like parameters. The exact particle trajectories in the total fields, equilibrium plus perturbation, are calcul...

A search for new particles decaying into a pair of top quarks is performed using proton-proton collision data recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at a center-of-mass energy of s=13  TeV corr...

Results on stress analysis for single-crystal diamonds are presented. Isolated crystals were studied by Raman mapping and depth profiling techniques, using confocal microscopy. Diamonds were deposited on molybdenum and t...

We study the structural properties of networks formed by random sets of bit strings—namely the ordered arrays of binary variables representing, for instance, genetic information or cultural profiles. Two bit strings ar...

This investigation explores the nucleonic thermal conductivity of nuclear star matter as it undergoes the “topological” transition to the “pasta” regime, and further down to the solid-liquid phase transition. The...

We present a molecular dynamics study of the liquid and plastic crystalline phases of CCl 3Br. We investigated the short-range orientational order using a recently developed classification method and we found that both p...
