*Martedì 24 luglio* *alle 21.00 in Pinacoteca Civica a Como, *la
professoressa *Nadia Robotti,* prima italiana storica della fisica, parlerà
di* “Bruno Pontecorvo: da Pisa a Dubna, un viaggio senza ritorno”*.
L’incontro è organizzato da
FONDAZIONE ALESSANDRO VOLTA, PAROLARIO, DIPARTIMENTO DI ECONOMIA UNIVERSITÀ
DELL'INSUBRIA, DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA STATALE DI MILANO E DIPARTIMENTO
DI STATISTICA E METODI QUANTITATIVI UNIVERSITÀ DI MILANO BICOCCA.
In collaborazione con il Comune di Como.
Bruno Pontecorvo, fisico noto soprattutto per essersi trasferito nel 1950,
in piena Guerra Fredda, in Unione Sovietica, è stato uno dei primi e più
importanti allievi di Enrico Fermi a Roma, a via Panisperna.
Utilizzando documenti originali d’archivio si cercherà di*ricostruire il
suo percorso scientifico, culturale* *e umano* che lo ha portato da Pisa,
sua città natale, a Roma e poi a Parigi, a Tulsa (Stati Uniti), a Montreal
(Canada), ad Harwell (Inghilterra) e, infine e definitivamente, a Dubna
(Unione Sovietica).
Pontecorvo non è stato solo “*l’uomo dei neutrini*”, ma è stato durante
tutto il corso della sua vita, l’uomo delle grandi scelte, tutte sempre
autonome e profondamente motivate da considerazioni scientifiche e
culturali.
*Ingresso gratuito.Registrazione su www.pontecorvo.eventbrite.it

*Nadia Robotti* è professore ordinario di Storia della Fisica
all’Università di Genova. I suoi interessi sono orientati alla
ricostruzione dell’attività scientifica e accademica di Enrico Fermi,
Ettore Majorana e Bruno Pontecorvo.
È responsabile, insieme al fisico teorico Francesco Guerra, di un'indagine
rivolta ai fisici di fama che contribuirono alla crescita della ricerca in
Italia nel periodo fra le due Guerre dal titolo "I fisici italiani tra
ricerca scientifica e impegno civile: dal Congresso di Vienna all'avvento
della Repubblica" e fa parte del gruppo di esperti che si è occupato dei
contenuti della mostra "Enrico Fermi: una duplice genialità tra teorie ed
esperimenti", proposta con un grande successo di pubblico a Genova e
Bologna, che sarà presto aperta in maniera stabile presso il complesso
monumentale di via Panisperna.
Nel 2017 è stata insignita del Premio Le Muse.
Si prega di dare la massima diffusione presso tutti gli interessati.
Cordiali saluti.

Dear Colleagues,
following the success and the high scientific
standard of the First Italian Meeting on
Probability and Mathematical Stastistics
(http://calvino.polito.it/~probstat/torino2017/index.html),
it is a pleasure to announce preliminarly that the
Second Italian Meeting on Probability and Mathematical Statistics
will be held from June 17 to June 21, 2019, at
the Lloyd's Baia Hotel, Vietri sul Mare (SA),
www.lloydsbaiahotel.it/
Scope of the meeting is the scientific exchange
between Italian researchers working on
Probability and Mathematical Statistics in Italy
or abroad. The participation of foreign
researchers working in Italy is also welcome.
Other information will be available soon.

The Department of Statistical Sciences of the University of Padova,
www.stat.unipd.it, announces
the opening of a selection to award a 24 months research grant for
innovative and excellent research
projects proposed by young independent scholars within the framework of
the Project of Excellence
“Statistical methods and models for complex data”. The Department of
Statistical Sciences is a
department of excellence whose project “Statistical methods and models
for complex data” has
been financed by the Ministry of Education, Universities and Research
(MIUR) at the beginning of
2018. The project will last for five years, from 2018 to 2022, and
details on the project activities are
available at this link http://www.stat.unipd.it/bandi .
In particular, the Project of Excellence (PE) purpose is to develop
novel skills for the analysis of
complex data, according to the following progress lines:
a) To the overcoming of deficiencies of the current statistical methods
and models for data
characterized by various forms of complexity;
b) To meet the growing demand for solutions to complex problems in
various application fields by
developing and/or using innovative statistical tools, specifically
designed to tackle the specific
aspects of application fields and of data they might generate;
c) To develop strategies for the management of novel data types as, for
instance, those emerging
from the contemporaneous presence of various elements of complexity;
d) To contribute to the definition of general approaches for inference
on complex data of different
origin, that will become the methodological infrastructure for the
developments of modelling,
forecasting and classification strategies.
The new position builds on the project “Statistical models for complex
data” and the selected
candidate will be involved in the development of the project activities.
In the evaluation of the
research proposals, adherence to the project topics is a necessary
requirement.
The candidates must be PhD graduates with at least one year of
post-doctoral research experiences
in Italian or international research institutes of recognized scientific
quality. Candidates must have
their degree by the selection announcement deadline and the PhD program
in which they have been
enrolled should have lasted for at least three years. For additional
details on the requirements,
limits, exclusions and further rules governing the selection, see
http://www.stat.unipd.it/bandi.
The research grant has an annual gross amount of 28.500 Euro covered by
the Project of Excellence
financial resources, is issued in accordance with the current
Regulations Governing Research Grant
Awards. The research has to be conducted at the Department of
Statistical Sciences.
In addition, the winning projects will be provided with financial
contribution towards research
expenses with an amount of 4000 Euro (for missions, translations and
language revisions, durable
materials).
For further details on the call, the application procedure, and other
formal requirements, see

AVVISO di SEMINARIO
Meander, excursion and last passage time of Brownian motion with drift
Prof. Enzo Orsingher
Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, Università La Sapienza, Roma
Abstract: In this talk a generalized Brownian meander with drift is
considered. The weak limit is studied and the tightness conditions
investigated when the initial position converges to the lower bound of the
meander. The maximal distribution is obtained and generalizes the
distribution of the maximum of the driftless meander. We obtain a
representation of the meander involving the last return to zero of the
Brownian motion. In the same spirit also the excursion of the Brownian
motion with drift is examined and its maximal distribution discussed.
Il seminario si terrà il giorno 13 Luglio 2018 ore 12:30 nella Aula E terzo
livello del Dipartimento Matematica e Applicazioni, Università di Napoli
FEDERICO II, Complesso di Monte Sant'Angelo, Via Cintia, Napoli.
