Broad band time-resolved E_{p,i}--L_{iso} correlation in GRBs [PDF]
We report results of a systematic study of the broad band (2--2000 keV) time resolved prompt emission spectra of a sample of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected with both Wide Field Cameras on board the \sax\ satellite and the \batse\ experiment on board ...

Numerical study of the random field Ising model at zero and positive temperature [PDF]
In this paper the three dimensional random field Ising model is studied at both zero temperature and positive temperature. Critical exponents are extracted at zero temperature by finite size scaling analysis of large discontinuities in the bond energy ...

Administration of nivolumab plus ipilimumab: Infusion of the fixed-ratio combination versus sequential infusions in two randomized controlled trials of metastatic melanoma (CheckMate 742) and renal cell carcinoma (CheckMate 800). [PDF]
Abstract Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors can be coadministered as a fixed‐ratio combination (FRC) or administered as sequential infusions (ASI). Two randomized, open‐label trials compared nivolumab + ipilimumab as a FRC versus ASI in patients with melanoma or renal cell carcinoma.

Gamma Ray Burst origin and their afterglow: story of a discovery and more
In this paper we review the story of the BeppoSAX discovery of the Gamma Ray Burst afterglow and their cosmological distance, starting from their first detection with Vela satellites and from the efforts done before BeppoSAX.

Monte Carlo study of the growth of $L1_2$ ordered domains in fcc $A_3B$ binary alloys [PDF]
A Monte Carlo study of the late time growth of $L1_2$ ordered domains on a fcc $A_3B$ binary alloy is presented. The energy of the alloy has been modeled by a nearest neighbor interaction Ising hamiltonian.

Free‐Standing Supramolecular Pyridine N‐Oxide‐Silver(I) Metallogels
A comprehensive analysis of pyridine N‐oxide‐silver(I) trifluoroacetate complexes reveals remarkable mechanical strengths that enable the creation of free‐standing objects with shape control, reaching dimensions of up to centimeters and shedding new insights into the gelation mechanisms.

Expected performance of a Laue lens based on bent crystals
In the context of the LAUE project devoted to build a long focal length focusing optics for soft gamma-ray astronomy (70/100 keV to $>$600 keV), we present results of simulation of a Laue lens, based on bent crystals in different assembling ...
