Prospects of additional contribution at Optical-NIR band of EBL in the light of VHE spectra

Nijil Mankuzhiyil, Massimo Persic, Alberto Franceschini

The Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) that spans the UV-IR band originates from direct and dust-reprocessed starlight integrated over the history of the Universe. EBL measuremen…

Inversion maps and torus actions on rational homogeneous varieties

Alberto Franceschini, Luis E. Solá Conde

Complex projective algebraic varieties with -actions can be thought of as geometric counterparts of birational transformations. In this paper we describe geometricall…

Revisiting the evidences for spectral anomalies in distant blazars: new data on the photon-ALP mixing

Francesco Cenedese, Alberto Franceschini, Giorgio Galanti

We re-examine possible dependencies on redshift of the spectral parameters of blazars observed at very-high energies (VHEs) with Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). T…

Differential attenuation in star-forming galaxies at 0.3 1.5 in the SHARDS/CANDELS field

L. Rodríguez-Muñoz, G. Rodighiero, P. G. Pérez-González +21

We use a sample of 706 galaxies, selected as [OII]3727 ([OII]) emitters in the Survey for High- Absorption Red and Dead Sources (SHARDS) on the CANDELS/GOODS-N field, to stud…

Predictions of TeV emission for a set of hard BL Lac objects

Simona Paiano, Aldo Treves, Alberto Franceschini +1

We focus our analysis on 55 BL Lac objects with a hard Fermi gamma-ray spectrum, and for which a redshift or a lower limit to it has been determined by a previous study of ours. We…
