Coupling traffic models on networks and urban dispersion models for simulating sustainable mobility strategies

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the viability of macroscopic traffic models for modeling and testing different traffic scenarios, in order to define the impact on air quality of different strategies for the reduction of traffic emissions. To this aim, we complement a well assessed traffic model on networks (Garavello, Piccoli, 2006) with a strategy for estimating data needed from the model and we couple it with the urban dispersion model Sirane (Soulhac, 2000)

Heavy quasiparticles in the ferromagnetic superconductor ZrZn2

We report a study of the de Haas-van Alphen effect in the normal state of the ferromagnetic superconductor ZrZn2. Our results are generally consistent with an LMTO band structure calculation which predicts four exchange-split Fermi surface sheets. Quasiparticle effective masses are enhanced by a factor of about 4.9 implying a strong coupling to magnetic excitations or phonons. Our measurements provide insight in to the mechanism for superconductivity and unusual thermodynamic properties of ZrZn2.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures (one color
