Combined Scanning Electron Microscope and Micro-InfraRed measurements on Interplanetary Dust Particles
A. Aronica, A. Rotundi, G. Ferrini +3
Laboratory characterization of Interplanetary Dust Particles (IDPs) collected in the lower stratosphere represents a concrete analysis of cosmic dust properties which played a fund…
Implementation of the trigger algorithm for the NEMO project
G. d'Angelo, G. Riccio, M. Brescia
We describe the implementation of trigger algorithm specifically tailored on the characteristics of the neutrino telescope NEMO. Extensive testing against realistic simulations sho…
Statistical analysis of the trigger algorithm for the NEMO project
G. Riccio, G. D'Angelo, M. Brescia
We discuss the performances of a trigger implemented for the planned neutrino telescope NEMO. This trigger seems capable to discriminate between the signal and the strong backgroun…
Surface Brightness Fluctuations: a theoretical point of view
M. Cantiello, G. Raimondo, E. Brocato +1
We present new theoretical evaluations of optical and near-IR Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) magnitudes for single-burst stellar populations in the age range t=5-15 Gyr and…
The Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851: its dynamical and evolutionary properties
I. Saviane, G. Piotto, F. Fagotto +3
We have completely mapped the globular cluster NGC 1851 with VI CCD photometry, obtaining a CMD for ca. 20500 stars. From the apparent luminosity of the HB we derive a distance mod…
The Luminosity and Mass Function of the Globular Cluster NGC1261
M. Zoccali, G. Piotto, S. R. Zaggia +1
I-band CCD images of two large regions of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 1261 have been used to construct stellar luminosity functions (LF) for 14000 stars in three annuli from…
