RUPTURE HISTORY OF THE 1997 UMBRIA-MARCHE (CENTRAL ITALY) MAIN SHOCKS FROM THE INVERSION OF GPS, DINSAR AND NEAR FIELD STRONG MOTION DATA

Rupture history of the 1997 Umbria-Marche (Central Italy) main shocks from the inversion of GPS, DInSAR and near field strong motion data

We investigate the rupture history of the three largest magnitude earthquakes of the 1997 Umbria-Marche sequence by inverting GPS, DInSAR and near-source strong motion Gun Oil waveforms.We use the frequency domain inversion procedure proposed by Cotton and Campillo (1995) and calculate the Green s functions for a layered halfspace using the discret

Decays of a bino-like particle in the low-mass regime

We study the phenomenology associated with a light bino-like neutralino with mass under the tau mass in the context of the R-parity violating Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.This is a well-motivated example of scenarios producing potentially light and long-lived exotic particles, which might be testable in far-detector experiments, such as th

Strategy of image management in retail shops

A sound positioning in consumers’ mind, along with strong promotion support, brought many retail shops to the top.This is mostly thanks to the image created in the consumers’ mind.A retail shop’s image may but need not conform to reality.Image often looks like a cliché.It overstates certain elements of the shop while simply omitting others.T
