The central Apennines represent one of the most seismically hazardous regions of the Mediterranean basin, within a post-collisional extensional tectonic framework characterized by a complex network of active faults. In this context, the Monte Marsicano Fault (Upper Sangro Valley, Abruzzo) represents one of the least characterized active structures of the Apennine chain, despite its proximity...

The interplay between optoelectronic characteristics and electrical behaviour is complex and requires detailed exploration. In this context, spectroscopic techniques are a valuable tool for gaining a better understanding of real devices, particularly for checking the effects of ageing, use, environment, damage and irradiation.

We study the dynamics of electrically charged black-hole binaries and their gravitational-wave emission during the inspiral phase. Within the post-Newtonian framework, we derive the conservative and dissipative dynamics up to second order (2PN). We compute the NNLO conservative Lagrangian, LO dissipative effects in harmonic and Lorenz gauges, and provide the equations of motion, center-of-mass...

68. Chemical and electronic characterisation of realistic on-surface synthesized conjugated polymersMr Carlo Calcatelli (Department of Physics and Geology, University of Perugia, Via Pascoli, 06123 Perugia, Italy; CNR—Istituto Officina dei Materiali (IOM), Via Pascoli, 06123 Perugia, Italy)4/9/26, 5:15 PM
Semiconducting conjugated polymers (CPs) are widely recognised as key materials in organic electronics due to their tunable chemical structures, cost-effective production methods, robust mechanical properties, and high charge mobility. Among the various synthesis methods, on-surface polymerisation has emerged as a powerful strategy to fabricate well-defined conjugated nanostructures directly...

Micrometeorites dominate the flux of extraterrestrial material reaching Earth [1]. They are classified into three groups: melted micrometeorites or cosmic spherules, unmelted micrometeorites and partially melted or scoriaceous micrometeorites [2]. We provide an unprecedented estimate of the cosmic dust flux based on the study of rare micrometeorites that retain most of their pristine features...

The ability to finely tune and probe the elastic properties of microstructured materials is central to the design of advanced phononic, optomechanical, and bio-inspired systems. Silica microparticles synthesized via the Stöber process are widely used as model resonators and building blocks for phononic materials; however, their stiffness is typically determined by the synthesis conditions and...

We study hierarchical triple systems formed by a compact binary orbiting a supermassive black hole (SMBH), focusing on the role of relativistic magnetic tidal interactions. Extending previous analyses of precession resonances to 0.5 post-Newtonian order, we incorporate quadrupolar magnetic tidal moments, which have no Newtonian counterpart. We find that magnetic tides introduce new resonances...
