Journal Article
Di Luzio, L., Kamenik, J. F., & Nardecchia, M. (2017). Implications of perturbative unitarity for scalar di-boson resonance searches at LHC. The European Physical Journal C, 77(1), Article 30. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-4594-2

We study the constraints implied by partial wave unitarity on new physics in the form of spin-zero di-boson resonances at LHC. We derive the scale where the effective description in terms of the SM supplemented by a single resonance is expected to br...

Abell 1201 is a massive galaxy cluster at z=0.169 with a brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) that acts as a gravitational lens to a background source at z=0.451. The lensing configuration is unusual, with a single bright arc formed at small radius (∼2 arc...

Log D versus HPLC derived hydrophobicity: The development of predictive tools to aid in the rational design of bioactive peptoids (2017)
Journal Article

Hydrophobicity has proven to be an extremely useful parameter in small molecule drug discovery programmes given that it can be used as a predictive tool to enable rational design. For larger molecules, including peptoids, where folding is possible, t...

Context. In the last decade several massive molecular gas reservoirs were found <100 kpc distance from active galactic nuclei (AGNs), residing in gas-rich companion galaxies. The study of AGN–gas-rich companion systems opens the opportunity to determ...
