Silicon carbide (SiC) is a compound semiconductor, which is considered as a possible alternative to silicon for particles and photons detection. Its characteristics make it very promising for the next generation of nuclear and particle physics experiments at high beam luminosity. Silicon Carbide detectors for Intense Luminosity Investigations and Applications (SiCILIA) is a project starting as a collaboration between the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) and IMM-CNR, aiming at the realization of innovative detection systems based on SiC.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared 158 children: 44 with selective mutism (SM), 65 with mixed anxiety (MA), and 49 controls, focusing on their behavioral and emotional functioning.
  • Children with SM showed lower social skills than controls, but there were not many significant differences between the SM and MA groups regarding social skills and anxiety, except for higher ratings of social anxiety in those with SM.
  • The results suggest that SM should be seen as an anxiety disorder with notable social functioning deficits, leading to recommendations for incorporating social skills training in treatments for both SM and anxiety disorders.
