Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The physics potential of e + e - linear colliders is summarized in this report. These machines are planned to operate in the first phase at a center-of-mass energy of 500 GeV, before being scaled up to about 1 TeV. In the second phase of the operation, a final energy of about 2 TeV is expected. The machines will allow us to perform precision tests of the heavy particles in the Standard Model, the top quark and the electroweak bosons. They are ideal facilities for exploring the properties of Higgs particles, in particular in the intermediate mass range. New vector bosons and novel matter particles in extended gauge theories can be searched for and studied thoroughly. The machines provide unique opportunities for the discovery of particles in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the spectrum of Higgs particles, the supersymmetric partners of the electroweak gauge and Higgs bosons, and of the matter particles. High precision analyses of their properties and interactions will allow for extrapolations to energy scales close to the Planck scale where gravity becomes significant. In alternative scenarios, i.e. compositeness models, novel matter particles and interactions can be discovered and investigated in the energy range above the existing colliders up to the TeV scale. Whatever scenario is realized in Nature, the discovery potential of e + e - linear colliders and the high precision with which the properties of particles and their interactions can be analyzed, define an exciting physics program complementary to hadron machines.

Collective Excitations in the Vicinity of N=Z

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In our contribution to the INPC98 conference we reported on the experimental investigation of high spin collective states in medium and heavy mass N≈Z nuclei at LNL. The main purpose is to set light on the role of the proton-neutron interaction in the collective behavior of the nucleus. In medium mass N=Z nuclei, in contrast with the stable nuclei, valence protons and neutrons occupy the same orbitals and one may expect a reinforcement of neutron-proton T=0 (np) pairing correlations[1]. In this interesting subject, the medium mass N=Z=36 72Kr has been studied and completely reported in [2]. In this proceedings we will concentrate in unpublished results concerning the onset of collectivity on nearly spherical nuclei in the 100Sn region. In nuclei with Z=50 and Z=49 dipole bands have been found indicating the presence of "Magnetic Rotation" [3].

Spectroscopy at N=Z with EUROBALL III
- 1999

In: AIP Conference Proceedings. - : AIP. - 1551-7616 .- 0094-243X. ; 495, s. 195-198

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A complete study of the nuclear structure by means of gamma spectroscopy requires, in addition to the high resolution gamma measurement and accurate DCO's or angular distributions, the information concerning the Electric or Magnetic character of the transition. This information for transitions in nuclei far from stability valley is now reachable in the new generation of Ge-arrays based in composite detectors. EUROBALL III is a good example with the high polarization sensitivity of the 90 degrees ring of Clovers. The Polarization correlations PCO's measured in coincidence with the Cluster detectors permits to investigate transitions in weakly populated nuclei. In this contribution we present results on medium mass N=Z nuclei measured with EUROBALL III coupled with light particle ancillary detectors.

Crystal structure and morphology of melt-crystallized poly(propylene-stat-ethylene) fractions.
- 1997
-
In: Polymer. - 0032-3861 .- 1873-2291. ; 38:2, s. 371-377
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Crystallinity, crystal structure and lamellar thickness in melt-crystallized samples of poly(propylene-stat-ethylene) fractions with 2.7–11.0 mol% ethylene comonomer and of approximately constant tacticity were assessed by wide- and small-angle X-ray scattering, differential scanning calorimetry and infra-red spectroscopy. Most of the samples were crystallized under isothermal conditions at 373 K. In comparison with an isotactic homopolymer of polypropylene, the copolymers showed lower crystallinity, melting enthalpy and average length of 3/1 helices, a slightly larger unit cell, a longer long period and an invariant lamellar thickness. The X-ray crystallinity of the copolymers remained approximately constant with increasing ethylene content, whereas the γ-crystallinity increased and the heat of fusion decreased moderately. It is suggested that the ethylene units are partially included in the crystals, and that this causes the invariance in crystallinity and crystal thickness. The observed gradual decrease in average 3/1 helix length with increasing ethylene content as assessed by infra-red spectroscopy is in accordance with this suggestion.

Crystallization kinetics and morphology of poly(propylene-stat-ethylene) fractions.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The crystallization and melting behaviour and the morphology of fractions of poly(propylene-stat-ethylene) with 2.7–11.0 mol% ethylene were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, wide-angle X-ray scattering, polarized light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, after etching with permanganic acid. The inclusion of ethylene co-repeating units in isotactic polypropylene (0–11.0 mol% ethylene) caused approximately linear decreases in kinetic and equilibrium melting temperatures and in the glass transition temperature with increasing ethylene content. X-ray scattering showed that the content of the γ form increased with increasing ethylene content, increasing crystallization temperature and decreasing cooling rate from the molten state. It was shown for one of the copolymers (8.7 mol% ethylene) that during heating approximately 50% of the γ form was converted to the α form before the final melting of the sample. The rest of the γ crystals melted without transformation to the α form. The multimodality of the crystal melting above the crystallization temperature in the polymers with a more uniform crystal structure was caused by recrystallization during heating, whereas polymers with appreciable contents of both α and γ forms exhibited multimodal melting at all the heating rates adopted. The size of the low temperature melting peak as assessed at a heating rate of 40 K min−1 was approximately proportional to the initial content of the γ form. By comparison with the spherulitic structure of homopolymers, that of the copolymers was coarser with internal and peripheral pockets of molten material during spherulite growth. The crystal lamellae exhibited more curvature in the copolymer samples than in the homopolymer.
