Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Light kaonic atoms spectroscopy offers the unique opportunity to perform experiments equivalent to scattering at vanishing relative energies. This allows the determination of the antikaon-nucleus interaction at threshold, without the need of extrapolation to zero energy, as in the case of scattering experiments. In this framework, the SIDDHARTA-2 collaboration aims to perform the first measurement of kaonic deuterium transition to the fundamental level, which is mandatory to extract the isospin dependent antikaon—nucleon scattering lengths. The experiment will be carried out at the DA(formula presented)NE collider of LNF-INFN in 2019–2020.

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The tetraneutron has been drawing the attention of the nuclear physics community for decades, but a firm conclusion on its existence and properties is still far from being reached despite many experimental and theoretical efforts. New measurements have recently been performed at RIBF with the SAMURAI spectrometer by applying complementary reaction probes, which will help to pin down the properties of this four-neutron system.

Pure spinor superfields - an overview
- 2014

In: Springer Proceedings in Physics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 0930-8989 .- 1867-4941. ; 153, s. 61-93

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Maximally supersymmetric theories do not allow off-shell superspace formulations with traditional superfields containing a finite set of auxiliary fields. It has become clear that off-shell supersymmetric action formulations of such models can be achieved by the introduction of pure spinors. In this talk, an overview of this formalism is given, with emphasis on D=10 super-Yang-Mills theory and D=11 supergravity. This a somewhat expanded version of a talk presented at the workshop "Breaking of supersymmetry and ultraviolet divergences in extended supergravity" (BUDS), Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, March 25-28, 2013.

Loop amplitude diagrams in manifest, maximal supergravity
- 2014
-
In: Springer Proceedings in Physics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 0930-8989 .- 1867-4941.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The issue of finiteness of maximal supergravity has been subject to research for quite some time. Here, we approach that question through an examination of how to describe amplitude diagrams in D=11 maximal supergravity from a field theory point of view. The strength of the formulation is the presence of manifest supersymmetry through the use of pure spinors. An initial analysis of what the subsequent characteristics turn out to be, partly in lower dimensions through dimensional reduction, gives at hand results that agree with previous work, pointing towards a first divergence for the 7-loop contribution to the 4-point amplitude in four dimensions. The text is mainly based on [arXiv:1212.5175] and may be regarded as an introduction to the main points presented there.

Insights into the Structure of Reaction Intermediates Through Coupled X-ray Absorption/UV-Vis Spectroscopy
- 2021
-
In: Springer Proceedings in Physics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 0930-8989 .- 1867-4941. ; 220, s. 141-154
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this work, we propose a method for the structural characterization of chemical reaction intermediates. It allows one to analyze time-resolved coupled energy dispersive X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EDXAS) and UV-Vis reaction data through a matricial approach. Concentration profiles for the reaction key species are derived from the UV-Vis data and are used as mathematical constraints to extract their associated X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra. The obtained XANES spectra are then quantitatively characterized by full multiple scattering (MS) calculations. We demonstrate the capabilities of this approach by applying it over a series of coupled EDXAS/UV-Vis spectra acquired in the reaction between FeII (tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) ([FeII(TPA)(CH3CN)2]2+ ) and H2O2. As a result, structural information for the elusive reaction key intermediate [ FeIII (TPA)(OOH)(X)]2 + is derived and it is suggested that X = CH3CN in opposition to X = H2O.

Modelling of elastic wave propagation through damaged interface via effective spring boundary conditions
- 2018
-
In: Springer Proceedings in Physics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 0930-8989 .- 1867-4941. ; 207, s. 375-387
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The present work deals with the application of spring boundary conditions in order to describe elastic wave propagation in composites with damaged interfaces. Dynamic behaviour of the damaged zone is described by means of a distribution of micro-cracks and introduction of spring boundary conditions, where stresses are proportional to the jump in displacement along the damaged interface and the proportionality factor is the distributed spring stiffness. The stiffness in the spring boundary conditions is determined from the equivalence of the transmission coefficients for these two models. As a result, the normal and tangential components of the spring stiffness tensor depend on the concentration of the defects, their typical size and elastic properties of the contacting materials. The three-dimensional problem with elastic wave scattering by a random or periodic distribution of rectangular microcracks is considered, the latter with a boundary integral equation method. The transmission through the damaged interface with random and periodic distribution of rectangular cracks is compared with a good correspondence giving confidence that the models are appropriate.

A Statistical Analysis of the Nuclear Structure Uncertainties in μD

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The charge radius of the deuteron (D), was recently determined to three times the precision compared with previous measurements using the measured Lamb shift in muonic deuterium ((formula presented)D). However, the (formula presented)D value is 5.6 (formula presented) smaller than the world averaged CODATA-2014 value (Pohl R et al. (2016) Science 353:669 [1]). To shed light on this discrepancy we analyze the uncertainties of the nuclear structure calculations of the Lamb shift in (formula presented)D and conclude that nuclear theory uncertainty is not likely to be the source of the discrepancy.

Spectral and polarization properties of VUV-mirrors for experiments at a HHG beamline
- 2020
-
In: Springer Proceedings in Physics. - Cham : Springer International Publishing. - 0930-8989 .- 1867-4941. ; 241, s. 175-179, s. 175-179

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- For polarization-resolved reflection experiments such as ellipsometry, not only is high reflectivity in a wide spectral range required for mirrors but also the quality of their polarization response is important. Furthermore, for VUV ellipsometry, optimal angles of incidence at the sample are between 45° and 60° with respect to the surface normal. In the best case, a setup should even allow variable angles. This requires reflective optics working at non-grazing incidence. In this theoretical study, a selection of potentially relevant materials and mirror designs for broadband use in the VUV is investigated. Based on the available tabulated databases of optical constants, we performed transfer-matrix calculations to obtain reflectance as well as polarization-response spectra in the desired VUV range up to 50 eV. From the variety of materials, we discuss metals that are otherwise commonly used at grazing incidence, Si, SiC, and as representatives for coating layers MgF2, SiO2, and Al2O3. While SiC is most universal, Si with only native oxide layer performs well especially below 25 eV. Aluminum has good properties but oxide layers are very detrimental, as protective coatings are in general.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Anatural question in general relativity is to find initial data for the Einstein equations whose past evolution is regular and whose future evolution contains a black hole. In [1] initial data of this kind is constructed for the spherically symmetric Einstein–Vlasov system. One consequence of the result is that there exists a class of initial data for which the ratio of the Hawking mass (Formula presented) (r) and the area radius r is arbitrarily small everywhere, such that a black hole forms in the evolution. This result is analogous to the result [2] for a scalar field. Another consequence is that there exist black hole initial data such that the solutions exist for all Schwarzschild time t ∈ (−∞,∞). In the present article we review the results in [1].
