Probing dark matter and quantum field theory effects with Rydberg atoms
A. Capolupo, S. M. Giampaolo, G. Lambiase +1
We analyze the oscillations of Rydberg atoms in the framework of quantum field theory and we reveal non-trivial vacuum energy which has the equation of state of the dark matter. Th…
The effect of spacetime torsion on neutrino mixing
A. Capolupo, S. Monda, G. Pisacane +2
In the framework of quantum field theory, we analyze the neutrino oscillations in the presence of a torsion background. We consider the Einstein Cartan theory and we study the case…
Proton irradiation on Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon flexible devices
M. Menichelli, S. Aziz, A. Bashiri +58
Radiation damage tests in hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) flexible flux and dose-measuring devices have been performed with a 3 MeV proton beam, to evaluate combined displa…
HASPIDE-SPACE: a new concept of a radiation-resistant instrument for solar energetic particles
C. Grimani, M. Fabi, M. Menichelli +55
Galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles (SEPs) affect the performance of instruments carried on board space missions and are the source of the absorbed dose to astronaut…
Formation and relaxation of halos in the context of wave DM particles evolving on a background of neutrino condensate
A. Capolupo, I. De Martino, S. Monda +2
We investigate the formation and relaxation of dark matter halos in the context of wave dark matter particles evolving on a background of neutrino condensate. To this aim, we solve…
Novel Scintillating Materials Based on Phenyl-Polysiloxane for Neutron Detection and Monitoring
M. Degerlier, S. Carturan, F. Gramegna +7
Neutron detectors are extensively used at many nuclear research facilities across Europe. Their application range covers many topics in basic and applied nuclear research: in nucle…
