Temperature dependence of modified CNO nuclear reaction rates in dense stellar plasmas

F. Ferro, A. Lavagno, P. Quarati

We study the dependence of the CNO nuclear reaction rates on temperature, in the range of K, the typical range of temperature evolution from a Sun-like star towards a w…

Non-extensive resonant reaction rates in astrophysical plasmas

F. Ferro, A. Lavagno, P. Quarati

We study two different physical scenarios of thermonuclear reactions in stellar plasmas proceeding through a narrow resonance at low energy or through the low energy wing of a wide…

Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays from Quasar Remnants

C. Isola, G. Sigl, G. Bertone

One of the models recently proposed to explain the origin of the ultra high energy cosmic rays assumes that these particles may be accelerated by the electromotive force around pre…

Soft gluon resummation in the quark-vector boson vertex at high energy: On-mass-shell case

Igor O. Cherednikov

Resummation of the soft gluon radiative corrections for the quark-vector boson vertex is performed within the path-integral (world-line) approach. The leading order expression for…

Travelling waves in a mixture of gases with bimolecular reversible reactions

A. Rossani, A. M. Scarfone

Starting from the kinetic approach for a mixture of reacting gases whose particles interact through elastic scattering and a bimolecular reversible chemical reaction, the equations…

Black Hole fragmentation and holography

Mariano Cadoni

We discuss the entropy change due to fragmentation for black hole solutions in various dimensions. We find three different types of behavior. The entropy may decrease, increase or…

Lesche Stability of -Entropy

G. Kaniadakis, A. M. Scarfone

The Lesche stability condition for the Shannon entropy [B. Lesche, J. Stat. Phys. 27, 419 (1982)], represents a fundamental test, for its experimental robustness, for systems obeyi…

First observation of the KS->pi0 gamma gamma decay

NA48 Collaboration

Using the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS, 31 KS->pi0 gamma gamma candidates with an estimated background of 13.7 +- 3.2 events have been observed. This first observation leads to a…

Antineutrinos from Earth: A reference model and its uncertainties

Fabio Mantovani, Luigi Carmignani, Gianni Fiorentini +1

We predict geoneutrino fluxes in a reference model based on a detailed description of Earth's crust and mantle and using the best available information on the abundances of uranium…

GPCALMA: a Grid Approach to Mammographic Screening

S. Bagnasco, U. Bottigli, P. Cerello +7

The next generation of High Energy Physics experiments requires a GRID approach to a distributed computing system and the associated data management: the key concept is the "Virtua…

Charming penguins in B => K* pi, K (rho,omega,phi) decays

C. Isola, M. Ladisa, G. Nardulli +1

We evaluate the decays B => K* pi, K (rho,omega,phi) adding the long distance charming penguin contributions to the short distance: Tree+Penguin amplitudes. We estimate the imagina…

Entropy bounds in two dimensions

S. Mignemi

We discuss entropy bounds for a class of two-dimensional gravity models. While the Bekenstein bound can be proved to hold in general for weakly gravitating matter, the analogous of…

The CALMA system: an artificial neural network method for detecting masses and microcalcifications in digitized mammograms

A. Lauria, R. Palmiero, G. Forni +7

The CALMA (Computer Assisted Library for MAmmography) project is a five years plan developed in a physics research frame in collaboration between INFN (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica…

Diagnostic performance of radiologists with and without different CAD systems for mammography

A. Lauria, M. E. Fantacci, U. Bottigli +10

The purpose of this study is the evaluation of the variation of performance in terms of sensitivity and specificity of two radiologists with different experience in mammography, wi…

Phase Space Cell in Nonextensive Classical Systems

F. Quarati, P. Quarati

We calculate the phase space volume occupied by a nonextensive system of classical particles described by an equilibrium (or steady-state, or long-term stationary state of…

Entropy of the 3-brane and the AdS/CFT duality from a two-dimensional perspective

M. Cadoni

A two-dimensional (2D) scalar-tensor gravity theory is used to describe the near-horizon near-extremal behavior of black 3-branes solutions of type IIB string theory. The asymptoti…

Transformations of coordinates and Hamiltonian formalism in deformed Special Relativity

S. Mignemi

We investigate the transformation laws of coordinates in generalizations of special relativity with two observer-independent scales. The request of covariance leads to simple formu…

On the definition of velocity in theories with two observer-independent scales

S. Mignemi

We argue that a consistent definition of the velocity of a particle in generalizations of special relativity with two observer-independent scales should be independent from the mas…

Countintg Extra Dimensions: Magnetic Cherenkov Radiation from High Energy Neutrinos

G. Domokos, Andrea Erdas, S. Kovesi-Domokos

In theories which require a space of dimension d>4, there is a natural mechanism of suppressing neutrino masses: while Standard Model fields are confined to a 3-brane, right handed…

KamLAND, terrestrial heat sources and neutrino oscillations

G. Fiorentini, T. Lasserre, M. Lissia +2

We comment on the first indication of geo-neutrino events from KamLAND and on the prospects for understanding Earth energetics. Practically all models of terrestrial heat productio…
