Self-locking in Collapsed Carbon Nanotube Stacks via Molecular Dynamics
Andrea Pedrielli, Simone Taioli, Nicola Maria Pugno
Self-locking structures are often studied in macroscopic energy absorbers, but the concept of self-locking can also be effectively applied at the nanoscale. In particular, we can e…
Elastic scattering of electrons by water: an ab initio study
Francesca Triggiani, Tommaso Morresi, Simone Taioli +1
In this work we devise a theoretical and computational method to compute the elastic scattering of electrons from a non-spherical potential, such as in the case of molecules and mo…
The role of low-energy electrons in the charging process of LISA test masses
Simone Taioli, Maurizio Dapor, Francesco Dimiccoli +5
The space environment encountered by operating spacecraft is populated by a continuous flux of charged particles that penetrate into electronic devices inducing phantom commands an…
In search of the ground state crystal structure of TaO from ab-initio and Monte Carlo simulations
Andrea Pedrielli, Nicola Maria Pugno, Maurizio Dapor +1
Tantalum oxides (TaO) are characterised by attractive physical and chemical properties, such as high dielectric constants and anti-reflection behaviour. Recently, TaO$_…
Simulating the nanometric track-structure of carbon ion beams in liquid water at energies relevant for hadrontherapy
Pablo de Vera, Stefano Simonucci, Paolo E. Trevisanutto +4
The nanometric track-structure of energetic ion beams in biological media determines the direct physical damage to living cells, which is one of the main responsibles of their kill…
Understanding Anharmonic Effects on Hydrogen Desorption Characteristics of MgH Nanoclusters by ab initio trained Deep Neural Network
Andrea Pedrielli, Paolo E. Trevisanutto, Lorenzo Monacelli +3
Magnesium hydride (MgH) has been widely studied for effective hydrogen storage. However, its bulk desorption temperature (553 K) is deemed too high for practical applications.…
