Nonlinear alfvenic fast particle transport and losses
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities like Toroidal Alfvén Eigenmodes or core-localized modes such as Beta Induced Alfvén Eigenmodes and Reversed Shear Alfvén Eigenmodes driven by fast particles can lead to significant ...

Nonlinear driven diffusive systems with dissipation: Fluctuating hydrodynamics
(American Physical Society, 2012)
We consider a general class of nonlinear diffusive models with bulk dissipation and boundary driving and derive its hydrodynamic description in the large size limit. Both the average macroscopic behavior and the fluctuating ...

Output factor determination for dose measurements in axial and perpendicular planes using a silicon strip detector
(American Physical Society, 2012-04-23)
In this work we present the output factor measurements of a clinical linear accelerator using a silicon strip detector coupled to a new system for complex radiation therapy treatment verification. The objective of these ...

Simultaneous measurement of neutron-induced capture and fission reactions at CERN
(Springer Verlag, 2012)
The measurement of the capture cross-section of fissile elements, of utmost importance for the design of innovative nuclear reactors and the management of nuclear waste, faces particular difficulties related to the γ-ray ...

Steady Representation of the Homogeneous Cooling State of a Granular Mixture
(AIP Publishing, 2012)
The study of a freely evolving granular mixture using particle simulations presents the inherent limitation that, as a consequence of the inelasticity of collisions, the system is continuously cooling. Therefore, the typical ...

Core excitation effects in the breakup of halo nuclei
(American Institute of Physics, 2012)
The role of core excitation in the structure and dynamics of two-body halo nuclei is investigated. We present calculations for the resonant breakup of 11Be on protons at an incident energy of 63.7 MeV/nucleon, where core ...

Rheological effects in the linear response and spontaneous fluctuations of a sheared granular gas
(American Physical Society, 2012)
The decay of a small homogeneous perturbation in the temperature of a dilute granular gas in the steady uniform shear flow state is investigated. Using kinetic theory based on the inelastic Boltzmann equation, a ...

Particle motion in a deformed potential using a transformed oscillator basis
(American Physical Society, 2012)
The quantum description of a particle moving in a deformed potential is investigated. A pseudostate (PS) basis is used to represent the states of the composite system. This PS basis is obtained by diagonalizing the system ...

DHalo nuclei follow rutherford elastic scattering at energies below the barrier? the case of 11Li
(American Physical Society, 2012-12-26)
The first measurement of the elastic scattering of the halo nucleus 11Li and its core 9Li on 208Pb at energies near the Coulomb barrier is presented. The 11Li+208Pb elastic scattering shows a strong reduction with respect ...

Quasi-stellar objects in the ALHAMBRA survey: I. Photometric redshift accuracy based on 23 optical-NIR filter photometry
(EDP Sciences, 2012)
Context. Even the spectroscopic capabilities of today's ground and space-based observatories can not keep up with the enormous flow of detections (>10 5 deg -2) unveiled in modern cosmological surveys as: i) would be ...
