European Physical Society 2018 EPS Condensed Matter Division Europhysics Prize – Milan May the 15th 2018

The 2018 EPS Condensed Matter Division Europhysics Prize is awarded to Lucio Braicovich and Giacomo Ghiringhelli for the development and scientific exploration of high-resolution Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS). The discoveries made using RIXS have fundamentally changed the discourse on the electronic structure of the cuprates. Notably, Braicovich and Ghiringhelli and their collaborators showed that dispersive high-energy spin excitations persist well into the cupratesoverdoped regime. The greatly enhanced sensitivity of the SAXES spectrometer was crucial in the discovery of a charge density wave (CDW) phase in moderately doped cuprates. More info at Europhysics-prize

Neutrons matter

7th – 8th November 2017, Villa Wolkonsky and Centro Fermi – Museo Storico della Fisica e Centro Studi e Ricerche Enrico Fermi

SCOPE
Neutrons Matter, the seventh edition of the International Workshop on Electron-volt Neutron Spectroscopy, celebrates the 85th anniversary of the discovery of the neutron by James Chadwick, and the 80th anniversary of the patent issued by the Ministero delle Corporazioni on 27th October 1937 to Enrico Fermi for the use of neutrons to enhance artificial radioactivity. The last discovery took place at the Istituto di Fisica di Via Panisperna at the very heart of Rome. Following a successful sixth edition of this workshop series in the United Kingdom in 2014, we aim to bring to the fore and highlight the most recent (and quite exciting) advances in the field, with an emphasis on the use of the technique across condensed matter research, as well as the concurrent use of contemporary computational materials modelling. The workshop will be held in Rome, in the beautiful setting of Villa Wolkonsky and at the Centro Fermi – Museo Storico della Fisica e Centro Studi e Ricerche Enrico Fermi.

1st International School on Computational Microscopy 2017

The international school on computational microscopy (Iscm) is organized by the Institute of applied sciences and intelligent systems (Isasi-Cnr). Its first edition, Iscm2017, will be focused on ‘Label free and quantitative phase imaging techniques’. The school will be held at Hotel La Bussola in Amalfi (Italy), from the 5th to the 8th of September 2017.

Computational microscopy is an emerging technology which extends the capabilities of the classical optical microscopy with the help of computation. In particular, the complexity of imaging systems moves from the optical arrangements to the computational part, which mainly consists into the smart data manipulation to achieve high-quality imaging capabilities.
The International school on computational microscopy school (Iscm) aims to provide the basic information about these unconventional imaging systems and relative advanced computational methods. Each edition of the school will be focused on one main topic in the field of computation microscopy.

The 4-day program is supposed to host more than 8 top-level international speakers, and 50 young researchers participating.

Nessuno mi troverà – Majorana Memorandum

Esce il 15 aprile 2016 il film- documentario “Nessuno mi troverà – Majorana Memorandum”, dedicato al fisico Ettore Majorana e al mistero che lo avvolge. Il ricercatore scomparve infatti il 26 marzo del 1938, all’età di 31 anni, senza lasciare traccia alcuna traccia di sé. Sulla sua sparizione sono state fatte diverse ipotesi (tra cui suicidio, rapimento, fuga volontaria), ma ancora oggi, a distanza di quasi ottant’anni, nessuna ha trovato riscontro.

L’enigma si è infittito ed è diventato un paradigma di questioni scientifiche, politiche e morali (come la responsabilità degli scienziati rispetto all’atomica). Questi temi vengono trattati nel film attraverso documenti, immagini d’archivio, animazioni da graphic novel, testimonianze e ipotesi investigative che diventerà anche un cofanetto dvd + libro.

Il CNR collaborerà con l’Istituto Luce-Cinecittà, accompagnando con i propri ricercatori alcune proiezioni del film in diverse sale cinematografiche italiane, scuole ed istituti universitari ed il 13 maggio a Torino, in concomitanza con il Salone del Libro, alla presenza del Presidente del CNR, Massimo Inguscio.

Corrado Spinella, Direttore del Dipartimento di Scienze Fisiche e Tecnologie della Materia del Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, prenderà parte alla conferenza stampa e proiezione del docufilm, martedì 12 aprile alle 10.00 presso la Casa del Cinema a Roma.

“Nell’immaginario collettivo la figura di Ettore Majorana si identifica con lo stereotipo dello scienziato eccentrico, geniale, molto riservato e distaccato dalla realtà. Eppure gli anni vissuti da Majorana sono stati, per la Fisica e per la Scienza in generale, anni di svolta nella comprensione dei meccanismi che regolano il comportamento della materia nella sua struttura più intima”, commenta Spinella. “Insieme a Fermi, Majorana diede un contributo rilevante alle applicazioni della Fisica quantistica nella descrizione della struttura della materia e della fisica delle particelle. In linea con l’eccentricità del suo personaggio, alcune sue idee portarono alla conclusione dell’esistenza di particelle elementare, i fermioni di Majorana, alle quali si continua a dare la caccia (come è stato per il bosone di Higgs). Soltanto recentemente, nel 2001, grazie a ulteriori sviluppi teorici delle idee di Majorana, si è ipotizzato che le sue ‘strane particelle’ potessero essere scovate cercando in forme speciali della materia, quelle che danno origine al fenomeno della superconduttività (la proprietà grazie alla quale un materiale può condurre corrente elettrica senza resistenza, senza dissipare energia). E a circa 80 anni dall’ipotesi dell’esistenza dei fermioni di Majorana abbiamo le prime evidenze della loro esistenza. Insomma, Majorana ci ha messo davanti a tanti misteri e sfide complesse”.

Il calendario delle proiezioni del film:

  • 15 aprile, Roma, cinema Farnese – ore 19.00

DSFTM @ MEMEX – The atom

4th Episode Memex RaiScuola: The atom

Matter is it made of atoms. The atom is the smallest portion of matter that retains all the characteristics of a single element. Every atom is composed of a core and one or more electrons arranged on circular orbits. The core that is made from high-density positively charged particles, protons, and particles with charge neutral calls precisely neutrons. The atom is not a discovery of modern science.

DSFTM @ MEMEX – See the atoms and the matter

3rd Episode Memex RaiScuola: See the atoms and the matter

The ability to magnify objects, atoms and matter, to grasp the details of their intimate structure is a need felt since the birth of modern science. In fact this need was at first directed to observations of distant objects, like the heavenly bodies, which appear small in their own right away. The physicists “see” by using various forms of radiation produced by, or interacting with, the bodies to be observed.

DSFTM @ MEMEX – The technology to spy on the matter

2nd Episode Memex RaiScuola:The technology to spy on the matter

Technologies to closely observe the atom and matter are many. The spectroscopy (atoms and molecules in motion), and the synchrotron light and pulsed electromagnetic radiation such as that produced in a free electron laser, allow to observe transient phenomena that take place inside of the molecules. These are phenomena which occur in very small time intervals, of the order of a millionth of a billionth of a second (femtosecond).

DSFTM @ MEMEX – Design the matter

1st Episode Memex RaiScuola: Design the matter

Our ability to “look closely” the atoms, molecules, matter, gives us leisure to study their structures and be able to manipulate matter at the atomic scale; this in order to achieve artificial forms of aggregation of the matter itself, not existing in nature, thus generating structures with unique properties, fundamental for the realization, for example, of devices which today cohabit daily with each of us, and then of miniaturized devices and apparatuses …
