Simplified energy landscape of the model and the phase transition
Fabrizio Baroni
The on lattice model is a paradigmatic example of continuous real variables model undergoing a continuous symmetry braking phase transition (SBPT). In this paper we study the…
The CALOCUBE project for a space based cosmic ray experiment: design, construction, and first performance of a high granularity calorimeter prototype
Adriani O., Albergo S., Auditore L. +48
Current research in High Energy Cosmic Ray Physics touches on fundamental questions regarding the origin of cosmic rays, their composition, the acceleration mechanisms, and their p…
The evolution of the Line of Variations at close encounters: an analytic approach
Giovanni Battista Valsecchi, Alessio Del Vigna, Marta Ceccaroni
We study the post-encounter evolution of fictitious small bodies belonging to the so-called Line of Variations (LoV) in the framework of the analytic theory of close encounters. We…
Brownian motion of supermassive black holes in galaxy cores
Pierfrancesco Di Cintio, Luca Ciotti, Carlo Nipoti
We investigate the dynamics of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galactic cores by means of a semi-analytic model based on the Langevin equation, including dynamical friction and…
-body chaos, phase-space transport and relaxation in numerical simulations
Pierfrancesco Di Cintio, Lapo Casetti
Using direct -body simulations of self-gravitating systems we study the dependence of dynamical chaos on the system size . We find that the -body chaos quantified in terms…
Yarkovsky effect detection and updated impact hazard assessment for Near-Earth Asteroid (410777) 2009 FD
Alessio Del Vigna, Javier Roa, Davide Farnocchia +5
Near-Earth asteroid (410777) 2009 FD is a potentially hazardous asteroid with potential impacts on Earth at the end of the 22nd century. The astrometry collected during the 2019 ap…
