The species was described from specimens collected in Algeria, and was later also reported from Belgium, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Spain, and Tunisia (Recalde Irurzun & Pérez-Moreno 2007; Bonamie et al. 2010; Bouyon 2014; Gielen & Smets 2020; Nikitsky 2020; Bleich & Gürlich 2021; Háva 2021; Eisinger in press, all sub Eulagius). It has been imported to Great Britain, where it seems to be established (Harrison 1996; Foster 2001, 2013; Booth 2012; Denton & Dodd 2013; Nikitsky 2020, all sub Eulagius). The biology and ecology of Stereophilus filicornis gen. et comb. nov. are poorly known: some authors report catches from under bark on dead trunks, on woody debris of old trees, and by beating dead branches of broadleaf trees such as Castanea sativa Mill., Quercus canariensis Willd. (= mirbeckii Durieu), Q. robur L., Q. suber L. (Caillol 1925, sub Atritomus; Peyerimhoff 1926, sub Parabaptistes; Labatut et al. 2014, sub Eulagius); only Freeman (2003, sub Parabaptistes) reported a series of specimens reared from carpophores of Stereum hirsutum (Willd.) Pers. (Russulales, Stereaceae), sampled from Fagus sylvatica L. The single specimen here reported from southern Italy, Calabria (Aspromonte) was found by sifting wood mould, woody debris, and Daedaleopsis nitida (Durieu & Mont.) Zmitr. & Malysheva (Polyporales, Polyporaceae) carpophores, likely its local host fungus, collected from inside a large hollow on a Quercus suber trunk. The site is a mesophile cork oak mixed forest, referred to the Helleboro-Quercetum suberis association (Signorello 1984; Mercurio & Spampinato 2001). The habitat of Stereophilus filicornis gen. et comb. nov. in Tuscan sites is represented by fragments of hilly submesophile woodland dominated by Castanea sativa and Quercus cerris L. (Nugola municipality: Bosco Malenchini and Bosco Macchia Grossa) and mosaics of Mediterranean maquis, holm oak and Aleppo pine woods (Antignano and Bellosguardo municipalities) (V. Lazzeri, pers. comm.). Our records are the first of this species for Italy. According to Tempère (1974, sub Parabaptistes), the species could also be present in Sicily. However, no source was provided and the occurrence of Stereophilus filicornis gen. et comb. nov. in Sicily remains unconfirmed.Published as part of Biscaccianti, Alessandro B., Esser, Jens, Cuoco, Silvio, Grimaldi, Enrica Giuliano & Audisio, Paolo A., 2022, West Palaearctic taxa formerly connected to the ' old' genus Atritomus Reitter, 1877 (Coleoptera, Mycetophagidae): taxonomy, distribution, and description of a new genus, pp. 61-74 in European Journal of Taxonomy 828 on pages 65-66, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.828.1853, http://zenodo.org/record/681152

Sensing and control in Virgo experiment
No full textThe gravitational wave detector Virgo is presently under commissioning. A large part of the last year has been spent for control activities, such as the longitudinal locking. This work has been carried out with steps of increasing complexity: locking a simple Fabry-Perot cavity, then a Michelson interferometer with Fabry-Perot cavities in both arms, and finally recycling the light beam into the interferometer

The valuation of bonds and bond options: some empirical tests
No full textIn this paper we describe the techniques needed to value securities whose price depends exclusively on the term structure of interest rates.
Closed-form formulae are presented for the valuation of bonds and call options on bonds and yields, and the put-call parity used to derive the values of put options. We recall that the value of any financial asset whose price depends exclusively on the term structure of interest rates can be obtained using numerical methods (such as the finite differences method used here).
We also describe a method of estimating the parameters of the one-factor CIR model based on non-linear regression techniques (Marquardt’s algorithm).
In order to exemplify the method, we applied the model to fixed rate bonds denominated in lire (Italian Treasury bonds - BTPs), ecus (Italian Treasury ecu certificates - CTEs) and dollars (U.S. T-notes and T-bonds) and to Italian Treasury option certificates (CTOs), which are equivalent to combinations of fixed rate bonds and bond options
Transport and proximity effect in unconventional ferromagnet/superconductor heterostructures
No full text2009 - 2010This dissertation collects results of my own work about heterostructures with unconventional ferromagnets
and superconductors. It both introduces the matter by reviewing part of the existing literature
and it includes original results. In particular charge and spin transport in ferromagnet/superconductor
bilayer, Josephson effect in superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor junctions, and proximity effect
in ferromagnet/triplet superconductor structures are examined. All work has been supervised by Prof.
Canio Noce and Dr. Mario Cuoco from Dipartimento di Fisica “E. R. Caianiello”, Università degli Studi di
Salerno. I have also benefited from collaborations with Prof. Alfonso Romano and Dr. Paola Gentile from
the same department. Part of the work has been supervised by Prof. Asle Sudbø and Prof. Jacob Linder
from Department of Physics, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. I have also benefited from
collaboration with Henrik Enoksen from the same department. [edited by Author]IX n.s
