Sunyaev Zel’dovich cluster surveys can be used to constrain cosmological parameters. Extracting clusters from the primary anisotropies and the unresolved background from very faint clusters is simple when the telescope beam size is small (∼ 1′), but could be difficult if the beam is larger (∼ 8′). By reference to examples, we show that this is possible by carefully designing the depth of the su...

DAMA is an observatory for rare processes based on the development and use of various kinds of radiopure scintillators. Several low background setups have been realized with time passing and many rare processes have been investigated. Main activities are briefly summarized in the following and the main arguments on the the results achieved in the investigation of the WIMP annual modulation sign...

No doubt, among the most exciting discoveries of the third millennium thus far are Oscillations of Massive Neutrinos and Dark Energy that leads to an accelerated expansion of the Universe. Accordingly, Nuclear Physics is presented with two extraordinary challenges: the need for precise (5% or better) prediction of solar neutrino fluxes within the Standard Solar Model, and the need for an accura...
