Herewith, we review the available experimental data of thermoelectric transport properties of iron-based superconductors and parent compounds. We discuss possible physical mechanisms into play in determining the Seebeck effect, from whence one can extract information about Fermi surface reconstruction and Lifshitz transitions, multiband...

In this paper we report basic properties of iron-based superconductors and review the latest achievements in the fabrication of conductors based on these materials. We compare state-of-the-art results with performances obtained with low-T c and high-T c technical superconductors, evidencing in particular the most significant differences with...

Paralympic swimmers compete in classes, according to their swimming functional abilities. The classification protocol of physical and technical tests carried out to assign a class has undergone multiple revisions over time, the latest one in 2018. As a consequence, most of the athletes with physical impairment were required to attend an...

BACKGROUND: We present the detailed protocol set up to investigate how agonistic sport affects the self-perceived psychological and emotional well-being of disabled young people. METHODS: The study will be carried out on a number of subjects as large as 800-1200, using well-established indices that give a quantitative measure of such...

CONTEXT: Kinesio Taping (KT) produces several clinical effects, including pain relief, edema absorption, and improved muscle performance. When applied in the insertion to origin mode, it is claimed to inhibit excessive muscle contractions.OBJECTIVE: Investigate whether KT applied in the insertion to origin mode could reduce the exaggerated...

We used ink-jet printing technique to fabricate conducting silver circuits on two substrates of technological interest (alumina and insulating ceramic-glass) using a very simple and cost-effective reduction reaction of silver nitrate (AgNO3) aqueous solution followed by annealing in argon-5% hydrogen atmosphere. Commercial dishwashing detergent...

Regular practice of sport activities yields psychophysical benefits for both the general population and persons affected by physical or intellectual impairments. Practicing competitive sport may add further value to these benefits. The objective of this observational cross-sectional study was to investigate the role of competitive sport...

The potential of Fe2TiSn full-Heusler compounds for thermoelectric applications has been suggested theoretically, but not yet proven experimentally, due to the difficulty in obtaining reproducible, homogeneous, phase-pure and defect-free samples. In this work, we studied Fe2TiSn1-xSbx polycrystals (x from 0 to 0.6), fabricated by high-frequency...
