Climate change in a critical planetary perspective: Dipesh Chakrabarty and the Anthropocene vs. Capitalocene controversy
No full textThe essay traces Dipesh Chakrabarty’s reflections on the Anthropocene, the epoch of “anthropogenic” climate change, to discuss them in light of the critiques developed in ecomarxist circles, particularly by Jason W. Moore, Andreas Malm, and Alf Hornborg. Chakrabarty, a well-known exponent of postcolonial studies and keen critic of globalization processes, points out that the “globe” of “globalization” is not the same “globe” of “global warming,” but rather “the planet” – the Earth-system – with its many forms of life. A complex trajectory of deliberation leads the author to question the “geological agency” of human beings and, ultimately, argue that the climate crisis can be better understood and addressed from a “planetary perspective" (rather than a humanocentric one) capable of placing “life in general” at the center of discussion. In their critiques of the Anthropocene narrative, Moore, Malm, and Hornborg speak instead of a “Capitalocene.” Through comparison with this critical stance, the essay highlights and discusses some of the theoretical premises underpinning Chakrabarty’s thinking so as to advance the hypothesis of a critical planetary perspective. Such a perspective recognizes capitalism as an ecological regime and climate change as a political challenge in which the problem of human domination over the rest of nature is clearly intertwined with the problem of domination and privilege in interhuman relations
A Tale of Two Populations: Rotating Radio Transients and X-ray Dim Isolated Neutron Stars
No full textWe highlight similarities between recently discovered rotating radio transients and X-ray dim isolated neutron stars. In particular, it is shown that X-ray dim isolated neutron stars have a birthrate comparable to that of rotating radio transients. On the contrary, magnetars have a formation rate that is too low to account for the bulk of the radio transient population. The consequences of the recent detection of a thermal X-ray source associated with one of the rotating radio transients on the proposed scenarios for these sources are also discussed

Pre-consolidation of decayed Angera columns with ammonium phosphate : a pilot study in a Milanese courtyard of XVI Century
No full textAngera stone is a lithotype widely employed in Lombardy (north Italy) for ornamental elements/frameworks of
historical buildings. Owing to decay processes it is affected by detachments, exfoliations, pulverizations with
consequent loss of material. The traditional application of synthetic organic products on the Angera surfaces had a
significant role in the decay processes as well (Colombo et al., 2006). Over the last years, the boundaries of
Conservation Science have been pushed toward the use of inorganic-mineral treatments that are stable, durable, highly
transpirable and more compatible with the stone substrates. Ammonium phosphate [DAP, (NH4)HPO4], one of the most
recent inorganic-mineral treatment, is based on the reaction between a water soluble precursor with carbonatic
substrates; the newly formed crystalline phases are able to restore the lost cohesion of the microstructure. Recent studies
investigated the interactions of DAP solutions with calcite of marbles and limestones (Matteini et al., 2011; Possenti et
al., 2016). To the best of our knowledge, no data are available on the application of DAP to: i) the conservation of
dolostones; ii) the pre-consolidation of decayed stones.
Therefore, in this study we explored the potentialities of DAP treatments as a pre-consolidating agent for white
Angera stone. DAP solutions were vaporized on vertical specimens to avoid mechanical contact with decayed surfaces.
The research evaluated the effects induced by the molarity and the application method (repeated applications, wetted or
dry substrate, comparison with paper poultice) on the surface and the influence of pre-consolidation on the subsequent
consolidation with DAP.
The formation of specific crystalline phases and their diffusion inside the first few microns of the stone matrix were
investigated following a multi-analytical approach (SEM-EDS, Raman and IR spectroscopies, XRD). The research
outcomes supplied outstanding indications for restoration, supporting the application of DAP pre-consolidating
treatments to Angera columns strongly decayed in a Milanese courtyard of XVI Century.
