We study the thermodynamical properties of Fermi vapors confined in a harmonic external potential. In the case of the ideal Fermi gas, we compare exact density profiles with their semiclassical approximation in the conditions of recent experiments. Then, we consider the phase-separation of a multicomponent Fermi vapor. In particular, we analyze the phase-separation as a function of temperature, number of particles and scattering length. Finally, we discuss the effect of rotation on the stability and thermodynamics of the trapped vapors.

We study the thermodynamics of the Bose-condensed atomic hydrogen confined in the Ioffe-Pritchard potential. Such a trapping potential, that models the magnetic trap used in recent experiments with hydrogen, is anharmonic and strongly anisotropic. We calculate the ground-state properties, the condensed and non-condensed fraction and the Bose-Einstein transition temperature. The thermodynamics of the system is strongly affected by the anharmonicity of this external trap. Finally, we consider the possibility to detect Josephson-like currents by creating a double-well barrier with a laser beam.

A novel one-pot multicomponent synthesis of heteroarylogous 1H-indole-3-carboxamidines starting from readily available N-alkyl-N-(1H-indol-2-ylmethyl)amines, isocyanides, and carbonyl compounds is reported. The strategy exploits the ability of the indole nucleus to interrupt the classical Ugi reaction, by intercepting the nascent nitrilium ion.

Synthesis of Heteroarylogous 1H-Indole-3-carboxamidines via a Three-Component Interrupted Ugi Reaction. -The novel one-pot multicomponent reaction is based on the reaction of N-alkyl-N-(1H-indol-2-ylmethyl)amines, with various carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes including formaldehyde or cyclohexenone, and variously functionalized isocyanides. -(LA SPISA, F.; MENEGHETTI, F.; POZZI, B.; TRON*, G.
