Continuing our analytic computation of the first-order self-force contribution to the "geodetic" spin precession frequency of a small spinning body orbiting a large (nonspinning) body, we provide the exact expressions of the 10 and 10.5 post-Newtonian terms. We also introduce a new approach to the… |

The motion of matter immersed in a radiation field is affected by radiation drag, as a result
of scattering or absorption and re-emission. The resulting friction-like drag, also known
as Poynting-Robertson effect, has been recently studied in the general relativistic background
of the… |

This work presents the first results of an experiment aiming to derive a high resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM) by kinematic GPS surveying. The accuracy of the DTM depends on both the operational GPS precision and the density of GPS samples. The operational GPS precision, measured in the field… |

We present a new multistage method to study the N-Methyl-D-Aspartate (NMDA) neuroreceptor starting from the reconstruction of its crystallographic structure. Thanks to the combination of Homology Modelling, Molecular Dynamics and Lattice Boltzmann simulations, we analyse the allosteric transition… |

We evaluate a mathematical model of the predator-prey population dynamics in a fragmented habitat where both migration processes between habitat patches and prey control policies are taken into account. The considered system is examined by applying the aggregation method and different dynamical… |

We study the statistical properties of homogeneous and isotropic three-dimensional (3D) turbulent flows. By introducing a novel way to make numerical investigations of Navier-Stokes equations, we show that all 3D flows in nature possess a subset of nonlinear evolution leading to a reverse energy… |

We consider a core-radius approach to nonlocal perimeters governed by isotropic kernels having critical and supercritical exponents, extending the nowadays classical notion of s-fractional perimeter, defined for 0<s<1, to the case s>=1. We show that, as the core-radius vanishes, such core-… |

It is shown that the combination of generalized Van der Waals equations of state with high-order discrete velocity lattices, permits to simulate the dynamics of liquid droplets at air-water density ratios, with very moderate levels of spurious currents near the droplet interface. Satisfactory… |
