Abstract The standard cosmological model with cold dark matter provides an accurate account of the cosmological background and large-scale structures of the Universe, while numerical simulations based on this model successfully reproduce many observed …

Abstract In massive galaxies, dark matter is only detectable in the outer parts, in the form of a dark halo. The best tracer for the outer parts is the HI-21cm atomic gas, which traces the total mass. Inner galaxies, high-spatial-resolution ionized gas …

The seminar will continue with a reading of Ulpian's On the Duties of the Proconsul , a kind of guide that allows us to virtually see the Roman provincial governor in action, and to understand how his actions were bound by the bonds of law. The seminar …

The lecture explores how Roman jurists, who were also writers, used metaphors to express and even forge their concepts, some of which are still ours today. Metaphors are a cognitive matrix, a way of thinking, not just speaking. Body, head, ears, hands, …

Abstract This seminar will present a brand-new version of the Nice model, where the planets' resonant chain is constructed from simulations of planetary migration in a low-viscosity protoplanetary disk. In this scenario, Jupiter and Saturn are captured in …

One-hour lecture , followed by the seminar. Abstract The new versions of the Nice model are based on the observation that the orbits of the giant planets should be in mutual resonance at the moment of gas dissipation, after the migration phase induced …
