Fundamental times, lengths and physical constants: some unknown contributions by Ettore Majorana
S. Esposito, G. Salesi
We review the introduction in physics of the concepts of an elementary space length and of a fundamental time scale, analyzing some related unknown contributions by Ettore Majorana…
Microscopic study of the isoscalar giant resonances in 208Pb induced by inelastic alpha scattering
Do Cong Cuong, Dao T. Khoa, Gianluca Colo
The energetic beam of (spin and isospin zero) -particles remains a very efficient probe for the nuclear isoscalar giant resonances. In the present work, a microscopic folding mo…
A Search for B+ -> tau+ nu Recoiling Against B- -> D0 l- nu X
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We present a search for the decay () in pairs recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-Facto…
The Step-Harmonic Potential
Luca Rizzi, Oliver F. Piattella, Sergio L. Cacciatori +1
We analyze the behavior of a quantum system described by a one-dimensional asymmetric potential consisting of a step plus a harmonic barrier. We solve the eigenvalue equation by th…
The pre-inflationary and inflationary fast-roll eras and their signatures in the low CMB multipoles
C. Destri, H. J. de Vega, N. G. Sanchez
We study the entire coupled evolution of the inflaton and the scale factor for general initial conditions at a given initial time. The generic early universe evolution has three st…
Demonstration of a programmable source of two-photon multiqubit entangled states
Simone Cialdi, Davide Brivio, Matteo G. A. Paris
We suggest and demonstrate a novel source of two-photon multipartite entangled states which exploits the transverse spatial structure of spontaneous parametric downconversion toget…
Fitting Parton Distribution Data with Multiplicative Normalization Uncertainties
The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Luigi Del Debbio +5
We consider the generic problem of performing a global fit to many independent data sets each with a different overall multiplicative normalization uncertainty. We show that the me…
Direct observation of the glue pairing the halo of the nucleus 11Li
G. Potel, F. Barranco, E. Vigezzi +1
With the help of a unified description of the nuclear structure and of the direct reaction mechanism we show that a recent 1H(11Li,9Li)3H experiment provides, for the first time in…
The cosmological constant as an eigenvalue of the Hamiltonian constraint in Horava-Lifshits theory
Remo Garattini
In the framework of Horava-Lifshitz theory, we study the eigenvalues associated with the Wheeler-DeWitt equation representing the vacuum expectation values associated with the cosm…
Dual black holes in merger remnants. II: spin evolution and gravitational recoil
M. Dotti, M. Volonteri, A. Perego +3
Using high resolution hydrodynamical simulations, we explore the spin evolution of massive dual black holes orbiting inside a circumnuclear disc, relic of a gas-rich galaxy merger.…
Supersymmetric AdS_4 black holes and attractors
Sergio L. Cacciatori, Dietmar Klemm
Using the general recipe given in arXiv:0804.0009, where all timelike supersymmetric solutions of N=2, D=4 gauged supergravity coupled to abelian vector multiplets were classified,…
Do WMAP5 data favor neutrino mass and a coupling between Cold Dark Matter and Dark Energy?
S. A. Bonometto, G. La Vacca, J. R. Kristiansen +2
We fit WMAP5 and related data by allowing for a CDM--DE coupling and non--zero neutrino masses, simultaneously. We find a significant correlation between these parameters, so that…
Stochastic Schrödinger equations with coloured noise
A. Barchielli, C. Pellegrini, F. Petruccione
A natural non-Markovian extension of the theory of white noise quantum trajectories is presented. In order to introduce memory effects in the formalism an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck colour…
Running Cosmological Constant and Running Newton Constant in Modified Gravity Theories
Remo Garattini
We discuss how to extract information about the cosmological constant from the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, considered as an eigenvalue of a Sturm-Liouville problem in a de Sitter and…
Spectra of dynamical Dark Energy cosmologies from constant-w models
Luciano Casarini
WMAP5 and related data have greatly restricted the range of acceptable cosmologies, by providing precise likelihood ellypses on the the w_0-w_a plane. We discuss first how such ell…
New experimental limits on the Pauli forbidden transitions in C nuclei obtained with 485 days Borexino data
The Borexino Collaboration
The Pauli exclusion principle (PEP) has been tested for nucleons () in with the Borexino detector.The approach consists of a search for , , and emit…
NLO QCD corrections to W+W- gamma and Z Z gamma production with leptonic decays
G. Bozzi, F. Campanario, V. Hankele +1
The computation of the NLO QCD corrections to the cross sections for W+W- gamma and ZZgamma production in hadronic collisions is presented. We consider the case of a real photon in…
