Raffaello Caverni (1837 - 1900) and the Society for the progress of the sciences: an independent priest criticized by the lay scientists

Dino Boccaletti

Raffaello Caverni, a Catholic priest, was a truly lay and anti-establishment intellectual in his opinions both on Darwin and on Galileo. He opposed the mythicization of Galileo, as…

Periodic orbits in the logarithmic potential

Giuseppe Pucacco, Dino Boccaletti, Cinzia Belmonte

Analytic methods to investigate periodic orbits in galactic potentials. To evaluate the quality of the approximation of periodic orbits in the logarithmic potential constructed usi…

Quantitative predictions with detuned normal forms

Giuseppe Pucacco, Dino Boccaletti, Cinzia Belmonte

The phase-space structure of two families of galactic potentials is approximated with a resonant detuned normal form. The normal form series is obtained by a Lie transform of the s…

On the Orbit Structure of the Logarithmic Potential

Cinzia Belmonte, Dino Boccaletti, Giuseppe Pucacco

We investigate the dynamics in the logarithmic galactic potential with an analytical approach. The phase-space structure of the real system is approximated with resonant detuned no…

Stability of axial orbits in galactic potentials

Cinzia Belmonte, Dino Boccaletti, Giuseppe Pucacco

We investigate the dynamics in a galactic potential with two reflection symmetries. The phase-space structure of the real system is approximated with a resonant detuned normal form…

Space-time trigonometry and formalization of the "Twin Paradox" for uniform and accelerated motions

Dino Boccaletti, Francesco Catoni, Vincenzo Catoni

The formal structure of the early Einstein's Special Relativity follows the axiomatic deductive method of Euclidean geometry. In this paper we show the deep-rooted relation between…
