Quark core formation in spinning-down pulsars
Pulsars spin-down due to magnetic torque reducing its radius and increasing
the central energy density. Some pulsar which are born with central densities
close to the critical value of quark deconfinement may undergo a phase
transition and structural re-arrengement. This process may excite oscillation
modes and emmit gravitational waves. We determine the rate of quark core
formation in neutron stars using a realistic population synthesis code.Comment: Proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on Astronomy and

Double fermiophobic Higgs boson production at the LHC and LC
We consider the phenomenology of a fermiophobic Higgs boson (h_f) at the
Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and a e+e- Linear Collider (LC). At both machines
the standard production mechanisms which rely on the coupling h_fVV (V=W,Z) can
be very suppressed at large tan beta. In such cases the complementary channels
pp to H^\pm h_f, A^0 h_f and e+e- to A^0 h_f offer promising cross-sections.
Together with the potentially large branching ratios for H^\pm to h_fW* and A^0
to h_fZ*, these mechanisms would give rise to double h_f production, leading to
signatures of gamma gamma gamma gamma, gamma gamma VV and VVVV.Comment: 19 pages, 9 figures, expanded discussion, fig.1 changed slightly,

Expected Coalescence Rate of Double Neutron Stars for Ground Based Interferometers
In this paper we present new estimates of the coalescence rate of neutron
star binaries in the local universe and we discuss its consequences for the
first generations of ground based interferometers. Our approach based on both
evolutionary and statistical methods gives a galactic merging rate of 1.7
10 yr, in the range of previous estimates 10 - 10
yr. The local rate which includes the contribution of elliptical
galaxies is two times higher, in the order of 3.4 10 yr. We
predict one detection every 148 and 125 years with initial VIRGO and LIGO, and
up to 6 events per year with their advanced configuration. Our recent detection
rate estimates from investigations on VIRGO future improvements are quoted.Comment: talk given at the GWDAW9 (Annecy, 2004) to be published in CQ

A bright nanowire single photon source based on SiV centers in diamond
The practical implementation of many quantum technologies relies on the
development of robust and bright single photon sources that operate at room
temperature. The negatively charged silicon-vacancy (SiV-) color center in
diamond is a possible candidate for such a single photon source. However, due
to the high refraction index mismatch to air, color centers in diamond
typically exhibit low photon out-coupling. An additional shortcoming is due to
the random localization of native defects in the diamond sample. Here we
demonstrate deterministic implantation of Si ions with high conversion
efficiency to single SiV- centers, targeted to fabricated nanowires. The
co-localization of single SiV- centers with the nanostructures yields a ten
times higher light coupling efficiency than for single SiV- centers in bulk
diamond. This enhanced photon out-coupling, together with the intrinsic
scalability of the SiV- creation method, enables a new class of devices for
integrated photonics and quantum science.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
