On the wake of results obtained so far at SPARC_LAB test-facility Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (Italy), we are currently investigating possibility to design and build a new multi-disciplinary user-facility, equipped with soft X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) driven by ∼1 GeV high brightness linac based on plasma accelerator modules. This study is performed in synergy EuPRAXIA study. In this paper report about recent progresses going facility.
The monomiality principle is based on an abstract definition of the concept derivative and multiplicative operators. This allows to treat different families special polynomials as ordinary monomials. procedure underlines a generalization Heisenberg–Weyl group, along with relevant technicalities symmetry properties. In this article, we go deeply into formulation meaning employ it study properties set polynomials, which, asymptotically, reduce two-variable Kampè dè Fèrièt family. We derive...

As a matter of fact, may be very critical issue context, when grid networks damaged. Emergency vehicles, including ambulances and trucks, well mobile units such containers operating rooms, can equipped with photovoltaic modules serve emergency sources, supporting both vehicle operations relief efforts. A methodology was developed to estimate production under...

This thesis is intended to provide an account of the theory and applications Operational Methods that allow "translation" special functions polynomials into a "different" mathematical language. The language we are referring symbolic methods, largely based on formalism umbral type which provides tremendous simplification derivation associated properties. strategy will follow establishing rules replace higher trascendental in terms elementary take advantage from such recasting.
In this paper, we introduce higher-order harmonic numbers and derive their relevant properties generating functions by using an umbral-type method. We discuss the link with recent works on subject, show that combinations of umbral other techniques (such as Laplace types integral transforms) yield a very efficient tool to explore these numbers.
Differintegral methods, namely those techniques using differential and integral operators on the same footing, currently exploited in calculus, provide a fairly unexhausted source of tools to be applied wide class problems involving theory special functions not only. The use transforms Borel type associated formalism will shown an effective means, allowing link between umbral operational methods. We merge these two points view get new efficient method obtain integrals summation generating as well.
The FEL integral equation is reviewed here and studied under different contexts, accounting for diverse physical regimes. We include higher order harmonics saturation effects, explain the origin of scaling relations, widely exploited to describe either dynamics or nonnlinear harmonic generation.
