Lezioni dall’Antartide. Per un’ecologia del sistema solare [PDF]

open access: yesS&F_scienzaefilosofia.it, 2023
Lessons from Antarctica. For an ecology of the Solar System It seems plausible that the near future will see an ever greater expansion of human presence in several environments of the Solar System, such as the Moon and the planet Mars.

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Engineering Plasmonic Reactors for Co2 Reduction: from Nanoscale Catalysts to Novel Reactors

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
This mini review highlights the critical role of reactor design in advancing plasmonic CO2reduction technologies. It emphasizes the need to integrate optimized reactors with LSPR materials to enhance catalytic efficiency, light absorption, and hot‐carrier generation. Overcoming challenges in scalability, stability, and product separation.

Ethics and the Potential Conflicts between Astrobiology, Planetary Protection, and Commercial Use of Space

open access: yesChallenges, 2017
A high standard of planetary protection is important for astrobiology, though the risk for contamination can never be zero. It is therefore important to find a balance.

The Stability of Manganese Oxides Under Laser Irradiation During Raman Analyses: II. Layer Structures

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Manganese oxides are important geomaterials with diverse technological applications. Here, we investigate the behaviour of the most common Mn oxides with layer structures under irradiation by a 532‐nm laser, with intensity ranging from 23 µW/µm2 to 36.8 mW/µm2.

Black Plastic Identification for Sorting and Recycling With Deep‐UV Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
We present a deep ultraviolet (DUV) Raman spectrometer for sorting black plastics in recycling. The common identification modality of hyperspectral NIR struggles with black plastics due to strong absorption by the black pigment. By using a 248.6‐nm NeCu laser, we enable stand‐off detection over a conveyor belt while avoiding fluorescence interference ...
