In piena emergenza Coronavirus, con le scuole chiuse e le uscite limitate, come misure di contrasto alla diffusione del virus, Frascati Scienza vuole contribuire e dare il proprio sostegno a tutti gli studenti confinati a casa. Arriva Scienza Contagiosa, il programma … Continua a leggere → Continue reading
Lattice QCD Calculations Disprove Anomaly In Muon Gyromagnetic Ratio
A new long article which appeared on the arXiv preprint repository last week is sending ripples around the world of particle physics phenomenology, as its main result -if proven correct- will completely wipe off the table the one and only long-standing... Continue reading
Bronowski, un senso del futuro
Quando leggo un libro voglio sempre imparare qualcosa. Lo sottolineo, prendo appunti, penso sulle frasi scritte e il loro significato. In questo caso ho esattamente la stessa idea di scienza di Jacob Bronowski, quindi in qualche modo ho imparato poco, … Continua a leggere → Continue reading
Pagamenti digitali “virali”
Strano, si parla sempre di pagamenti digitali per limitare l’evasione fiscale, contro il riciclaggio e le attività illegali. Nessuno sembra però aver pensato, nell’anno del coronavirus, che uno dei modi migliori per limitare il contaggio potrebbe essere eliminare i pagamenti … Continua a leggere → Continue reading
Optimizing The Geometry Of A Muon-Electron Scattering Experiment
Tomorrow morning the Cornell arXiv will publish the preprint of a long scientific article, the result of 4.5 months of painstaking work by yours truly. So I thought I would give you a preview of its contents. Of course, it will take more than a single ... Continue reading
Three And A Half Muons
A few days ago I received from my esteemed colleague Massimo Passera, a theorist and an INFN director of research in the Padova section where I also work, a draft of a new article he produced with his colleagues Antonio Masiero and Paride Paradisi, whi... Continue reading
Alvin Tollestrup, Father Of The Tevatron, Dies
The Tevatron collider, the giant marvel accelerator built at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in the eighties and operated there for over thirty years, until its demise in 2012, lost one of its fathers the other day, as Alvin Tollestrup passed... Continue reading
The Plot Of The Week – Narrowing CP Violation Down
The ATLAS Collaboration has released last week the results of a careful analysis of a large dataset of proton-proton collisions acquired during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider. This is a measurement of CP violation effects in the system of B hadron... Continue reading
