Dynamics of liquid nanodroplet formation in nanosecond laser ablation of metals
The laser ablation mechanisms of metallic targets leading to liquid nanodroplet ejection are of wide interest both from a fundamental point of view and for applications in various fields, especially when nanoparticle synthesis is required. The phase explosion process was recognized as the driving mechanism of the expulsion of a mixture of vapor and liquid nanodroplets in the short pulse laser ablation of metals. A model based on thermodynamics that links the theory of homogeneous vapor bubble nucleation to the size distribution of the generated liquid nanoclusters has been recently proposed. The present work aims to take a step ahead to remove some assumptions made in previous work. Here an improved computational approach allows us to describe time-dependent nucleation in a homogeneous system with no temperature spatial gradients under nanosecond laser irradiation. Numerical results regarding the size distribution of formed liquid clusters and the time evolution of the process are shown for aluminum, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, silver and gold. Connections with experimental data and molecular dynamics simulations, when available from literature, are reported and discussed

Due maschere votive fittili dai santuari dell'antica Capua (pellegrinaggio trasnsumante e/o la cura degli occhi?)
Nelle collezioni del Museo campano di Capua sono conservate due maschere fittili che recano ben evidenziati gli occhi; esse appartengono a una classe diffusa soprattutto nel comparto centro italico e, tra i materiali votivi, sono state classificate con dubbi sulla loro effettiva caratterizzazione per quanto attiene al significato originario. Nell'articolo si propone una lettura che collega questa speciale classe di materiali ai santuari raggiunti dai pellegrini ed anche dai transumanti, laddove le maschere, piuttosto che collegabili agli occhi votivi fittili, sembrano rappresentare la presentificazione del vovente come sua abbreviazione nell'ambito delle dediche

Coastal roads atlas. Reshaping daily infrastructures for coastline adaptation
The widespread poor quality that characterizes many cities and urbanization today is often related to the outdoor spaces. These conditions are common situations in many contexts of our country but are intensified where spatial inequality and environmental vulnerability converge. Although declined in different territories these situations have at their center the complex space of the road. The road system not only contributes significantly to climate change but is also the main victim of the consequences related to these changes. The research investigates the role of the roads and parking spaces, interpreted as the main background of our everyday lives, in facilitating socio-ecological transition of most fragile territories. Particular attention is paid to the different vulnerabilities of Italian coastline and to the ways in which adaptation measures can be implemented to mitigate risks. The initial analyses are focused on developing methods to measure and evaluate the climatic, geophysical, and socio-economic vulnerabilities of coastal roads, which are rendered, through aggregated maps of quantitative and qualitative indicators, in an "Atlas of Coastal Roads". The Atlas is conceived as an operational tool, able to guide stakeholders to develop national and place-specific interpretations
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
