61. The BioPhys scientific activity

Silvia Morante (ROMA2)

15/12/2017, 11:30

Experiments are devised to answer theoretical questions and theory is a necessary prerequisite to analyze data and extract useful information. The complexity of biological systems makes extremely difficult to construct models and identify simple questions to ask to experiments. On the other end, models in many cases look overwhelming complicated. In this situation Molecular Dynamics...

79. High Performance Computing: a tool for the study of turbulence

Guido Boffetta (TO)

15/12/2017, 11:50

In this talk I will briefly review the use of HPC for different fundamental problems in the study of fully developed turbulence. Recent results on the signature of time irreversibility in the statistics of turbulent flows, and the role played by numerical simulations in these investigations, will be discussed in details.

66. The Euclid Mission

Alessandro Renzi (PD)

15/12/2017, 12:10

The European Space Agency's Euclid Mission will be launched in 2021. During its six-year mission, the Euclid satellite will survey nearly 40% of the sky, providing scientists with an extraordinarily large amount of data that will impact many aspects of modern cosmology and astrophysics. The Euclid Mission's primary science goals are targeted towards constraining the nature of two of the most...

81. The SFT scientific activity

Michele Caselle (TO)

15/12/2017, 12:30

I will briefly discuss the main research topics of the INFN research initiative SFT (Statistical Field Theory) with a particular attention to those involving HPC (mainly related to Lattice QCD)
