I present a new physical-mathematical method that describes the shape of a distorted interstellar bubble, namely the surface of a heliosphere deformed by the motion of the circumstellar gas. I created a straightforward but rigorous model, which has been tested on two real objects through a specifically developed algorithm that produces the outline of the bubble. Thus, I obtained a...

Our project aims to find new strategies for identifying chemical residues that are toxic to the environment and humans using Green Chemistry principles and Nanotechnologies. The Italian production of rice is about 1,500,000 tons/year, despite these numbers large quantities of rice are imported to meet national needs. We developed a colorimetric sensor based on gold nanoparticles for the detection of...

The purpose of this research is to use civil wastewaters entering the purification plant and those coming out of it after various treatments to build a galvanic battery and produce electric current. The water sent for purification contains molecules formed by elements such as carbon, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus in a predominantly "reduced" state and is scarce in oxygen concentration....
