A test of Lorentz invariance for electromagnetic waves was performed by comparing the resonance frequencies two optical resonators as a function orientation in space. In terms Robertson-Mansouri-Sexl theory, we obtain $\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{-}1∕2=(+0.5\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}3\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.7)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}10}$, tenfold improvement compared to previous best results. We also set first upper...

A novel experimental set-up for the measurement of Casimir effect at separations larger than a few microns is presented. The apparatus based on mechanical resonator and will use homodyne detection technique to sense force in plane–parallel configuration.
An experimental set-up for the measurement of Casimir effect at separations larger than a few microns is presented. The apparatus based on mechanical resonator and uses homodyne detection technique to sense force in plane-parallel configuration. First measurements 3-10 micrometer range show an unexpected large probably due patch effects.
Abstract Worldwide efforts to tackle the nature of exotic nuclei comprise construction new-generation Radioactive Ion Beam facilities. The Italian community is deeply involved in process and SPES at Legnaro National Laboratories (INFN) progressing. This contribution describes layout all its flavours, from Nuclear Physics Applications Medicine Neutron Physics. In particular, status SPES-β ISOL facility, together with some relevant physics cases associated equipment are described.
The High Energy Vibrational Powder Plating (HIVIPP) technique allows for the preparation of targets starting from refractory metal powders with negligible material losses during process, thus preserving expensive isotope-enriched materials. An upgraded HIVIPP apparatus was developed at Legnaro National Laboratory Institute Nuclear Physics (INFN-LNL), and it is reported in this work. Particular attention paid to design sample holder, automation power supply, control all aim obtaining a...
An improved analysis of the Michelson-Morley-type experiment by P. Antonini et al. (Phys. Rev. A. 71, 050101 (2005)) yields Robertson-Mansouri-Sexl theory parameter combination $β-δ-1/2=(-0.6\pm 2.1\pm 1.2)\cdot10^{-10}$ and Standard Model Extension $(\tildeκ_{e-})^{ZZ} = (-2.9\pm 2.2)\cdot 10^{-14}$.
In 2016, Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro (Italy) started the commissioning of a new accelerator facility based on high-power cyclotron able to deliver proton beams up 70 MeV energy and 700 [Formula: see text]A current. Such machine is core Selective Production Exotic Species (SPES) project whose main goal provide exotics beam for nuclear astrophysics research high-intensity medical applications neutrons generator.
SPES (Selective Production of Exotic Species) is an ISOL type facility for production and post-acceleration exotic nuclei forefront research in nuclear physics. Radioactive (RA) species (A = 80÷160) will be produced by fissions induced a proton beam impinging on UCx target: the delivered commercial cyclotron with 40 MeV maximum energy 0.25 mA current. The RA species, extracted from Target-Ion-Source system as 1+ beam, cooled RFQ (radiofrequency quadrupole) cooler (RFQ-BC) purified isobars...
The LARAMED project, acronym for LAboratory of RAdioisotopes MEDicine, is the new research infrastructure being established at Legnaro National Laboratories (LNL), focused on production novel medical radionuclides, actually unavailable scientific community. This work presents recent advancements laboratories and bunkers in SPES facility, where 70-MeV high current proton cyclotron was installed 2015 to perform not only fundamental nuclear physics studies but also activities related...
The feasibility of fully floating high voltage (HV) generation was demonstrated producing a prototype modular HV system. primary power source is provided by efficiency semiconductor cell illuminated laser system ensuring the nature each module. then generated dc-dc conversion and multiplier. possibility series connection among modules verified.
A high voltage generator built by a series connection of 100 kV modules was produced. The feasibility is ensured the inherent floating character each module which wireless powered efficiency photovoltaic cells illuminated laser system. Each equipped with control and monitoring board allowing excellent stabilization output. performance system in terms reliability, stability, evaluated. In particular using three setup, we achieved maximum 234 stability better than 0.1%.
