description: We study the near-horizon AdS_2\timesS^2 geometry of evaporating near-extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black holes interacting with null matter. The non-local (boundary) terms t_{\pm}, coming from the effective theory corrected with the quantum Polyakov-Liouville action, are treated as dynamical variables. We describe analytically the evaporation process which turns out to be compatible with the third law of thermodynamics, i.e., an infinite amount of time is required for the black hole to decay to extremality. Finally we comment briefly on the implications of our results for the information loss problem.

Spectral synthesis of this region reproduces some but not all atomic and molecular features. The equivalent width of the He line appears directly correlated with the soft X-ray stellar surface flux except among the coolest M dwarf stars, where the helium is surprisingly weak.

description: O presente artigo procura lançar as bases de uma investigação centrada na identificação da identidade feminina como um conceito aplicável aos séculos XIX e XX, em Portugal. As bases de análise incidem sobre a doutrina existente, centrando-se essencialmente na literatura jurídica produzida e na principal dogmática elaborada pela literatura de conselho, a que se associa a influência da doutrina da Igreja presente em vários manuais de catecismo da época. O estudo propõe-se analisar a forma como a legislação em matéria de Direito de Família aborda a temática, designadamente na identificação dos papéis assumidos pela mulher enquanto esposa, mãe e cuidadora. Neste sentido se analisará o protagonismo legislativo presente essencialmente em instituições como o casamento e o poder paternal. Igualmente se articulará a compreensão da identidade feminina, considerando a atividade judicial desenvolvida nos séculos XIX e XX, mais concretamente em matéria de separação dos cônjuges na vigência do Código Civil de 1867 e em caso de divórcio, após 1910, com a publicação da Lei do Divórcio.

description: Angle-resolved ultraviolet photoemission spectra are interpreted by combining the energetics and spatial properties of the contributing states. One-step calculations are in excellent agreement with new azimuthal experimental data for GaAs(110). Strong variations caused by the dispersion of the surface bands permit an accurate mapping of the electronic structure. The delocalization of the valence states is discussed analogous to photoelectron diffraction. The spatial origin of the electrons is determined, and found to be strongly energy dependent, with uv excitation probing the bonding region.

description: We calculate the linearized metric perturbation corresponding to a massless four-dimensional scalar field, the radion, in a five-dimensional two-brane model of Randall and Sundrum. In this way we obtain relative strengths of the radion couplings to matter residing on each of the branes. The results are in agreement with the analysis of Garriga and Tanaka of gravitational and Brans--Dicke forces between matter on the branes. We also introduce a model with infinite fifth dimension and ``almost'' confined graviton, and calculate the radion properties in that model.

description: In recent years, noticeable progress has been made in the development of quantum equipment, reflected through the number of successful demonstrations of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) technology. Although they showcase the great achievements of QKD, many practical difficulties still need to be resolved. Inspired by the significant similarity between mobile ad-hoc networks and QKD technology, we propose a novel quality of service (QoS) model including new metrics for determining the states of public and quantum channels as well as a comprehensive metric of the QKD link. We also propose a novel routing protocol to achieve high-level scalability and minimize consumption of cryptographic keys. Given the limited mobility of nodes in QKD networks, our routing protocol uses the geographical distance and calculated link states to determine the optimal route. It also benefits from a caching mechanism and detection of returning loops to provide effective forwarding while minimizing key consumption and achieving the desired utilization of network links. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the validity and accuracy of the proposed solutions.

description: We present a mesoscopic approach to analyze the dynamics of a single magnetic dipole under the influence of an oscillating magnetic field, based on the formulation of a Fokker-Planck equation. The dissipated power and the viscosity of a suspension of such magnetic dipoles are calculated from non-equilibrium thermodynamics of magnetized systems. By means of this method we have found a non-monotonous behaviour of the viscosity as a function of the frequency of the field which has been referred to as the ``negative'' viscosity effect. Moreover, we have shown that the viscosity depends on the vorticity field thus exhibiting non-Newtonian behaviour. Our analysis is complemented with numerical simulations which reproduce the behaviour of the viscosity we have found and extend the scope of our analytical approach to higher values of the magnetic field.

La Relación de Amor/Odio Entre Gobierno, Medios de Comunicación y Periodistas en Ecuador
Creators: name: Alonso, Martín Oller
Publisher: name: E- Revista de Estudos Interculturais
Year: 2021

description: La relación entre el gobierno, los medios de comunicación y los periodistas en Ecuador los sitúa en el centro del tenso debate acerca de los intereses creados entre estos actores. En primer lugar debido al carácter protagónico que viene desempeñando el gobierno de Rafael Correa dentro del área periodística a través de la creación de nuevos organismos y legislaciones al respecto y, en segundo lugar, motivado por el rol político que ejercen ciertos periodistas y medios de comunicación en su diálogo y relación con el gobierno, situando a la ciudadanía en una encrucijada a la hora de diferenciar dónde termina la información y comienza la publicidad o la propaganda oficial. Esta relación entre los actores políticos y los periodistas está consolidando la estructura comunicacional en la última década (2007-2017) en el país. Para conocer con mayor profundidad esta relación en Ecuador, este artículo 1) analiza las percepciones de los periodistas en torno a sus roles profesionales; niveles de autonomía, credibilidad y confianza; ideas de ética profesional y percepciones de las influencias contextuales a partir de los resultados obtenidos en el proyecto Worlds of Journalism Study y 2) las influencias procedentes del contexto -dentro y fuera de las redacciones- a partir de la aplicación del Modelo Orgánico Multinivel (MOM) propuesto por Oller (2015). Los resultados muestran, en primer lugar, que las políticas del gobierno de Ecuador, desde un punto de vista comunicacional, poseen ciertos rasgos que las definirían como populistas y, en segundo lugar, que los periodistas ejercen principalmente el rol de difusor, lo que les podría llevar a actuar como “voceros” o interlocutores del gobierno, aunque con marcados matices del rol cívico, perro guardián y abogado.

description: We study the low-energy consequences of the mass and mixing angle relations in grand unified theories (GUT), which follow from an assumption that some quarks and leptons are placed in the same GUT multiplets. This assumption is a simple extension of that for the well-known bottom/tau mass ratio, which is one of the most successful predictions of grand unification of matter multiplets. We show that imposing the GUT relations leads naturally to a limited parameter space from the large lepton mixing between the second and third generations.

description: O filme francês Que Mal Fiz Eu a Deus? vai provocar o sentido crítico dos espectadores, desafiando-os a experienciar uma diversidade de emoções e a construir e reconstruir ideologias. Neste filme deparamo-nos com uma panóplia de conceitos já estudados na disciplina académica de Estudos Interculturais, expondo estereótipos que regem a sociedade francesa contemporânea, mas que poderiam ser aplicados e observados na maioria das sociedades europeias, inclusivamente em Portugal. A ameaça terrorista latente e o recente problema dos refugiados tornam o filme ainda mais significativo, visto que voltam a ser debatidas questões culturais pertinentes. A cultura, no sentido de modo de vida de um povo ou comunidade ou se a entendermos como a produção e circulação de significados, implica que haja sempre membros que nela se incluem e outros que são excluídos, o que não passa despercebido nesta comédia francesa, que indica diretamente o problema que afeta a Europa e todas as suas culturas. Camuflar ou ignorar a existência de determinadas estruturas de pensamento, juízos de valor e identidades sociais associadas a todos os sujeitos poderá ter repercussões negativas no futuro, para além das já existentes. O trabalho que se segue irá estabelecer então uma ligação entre a realidade representada no filme já citado e a terminologia e teorias abordadas na unidade curricular de Estudos Interculturais.

description: The quantum speed limit (QSL) provides a fundamental upper bound on the speed of quantum evolution, but its evaluation in generic open quantum systems still presents a formidable computational challenge. Herein, we introduce a hybrid quantum-classical method for computing QSL times in multi-level open quantum systems. The method is based on a mixed Wigner-Heisenberg representation of the composite quantum dynamics, in which the open subsystem of interest is treated quantum mechanically and the bath is treated in a classical-like fashion. By solving a set of coupled first-order deterministic differential equations for the quantum and classical degrees of freedom, one can compute the QSL time. To demonstrate the utility of the method, we study the unbiased spin-boson model and provide a detailed analysis of the effect of the subsystem-bath coupling strength and bath temperature on the QSL time. In particular, we find a turnover of the QSL time in the strong coupling regime, which is indicative of a speed-up in the quantum evolution. We also apply the method to the Fenna- Matthews-Olson complex model and identify a potential connection between the QSL time and the efficiency of the excitation energy transfer at different temperatures.

description: Many investigations in empirical software engineering look at sequences of data resulting from development or management processes. In this paper, we propose an analytical approach called the Gandhi-Washington Method (GWM) to investigate the impact of recurring events in software projects. GWM takes an encoding of events and activities provided by a software analyst as input. It uses regular expressions to automatically condense and summarize information and infer treatments. Relating the treatments to the outcome through statistical tests, treatment-outcome constructs are automatically mined from the data. The output of GWM is a set of treatment-outcome constructs. Each treatment in the set of mined constructs is significantly different from the other treatments considering the impact on the outcome and/or is structurally different from other treatments considering the sequence of events. We describe GWM and classes of problems to which GWM can be applied. We demonstrate the applicability of this method for empirical studies on sequences of file editing, code ownership, and release cycle time.

O único sítio que sabia que tinha que ir era a Machu Picchu. Fazia estas viagens normalmente sozinha. Encontrou três amigos na Costa Rica e passou alguns dias com eles, mas estes voltaram para Lisboa. Conheceu imensas pessoas que tiveram um grande impacto na sua vida. Fez uma amiga chamada Rita que era de Sintra. Até adotou um cão, por um breve período de tempo, enquanto estava no Chile ao qual deu o nome de “Pura Vida” (frase repetida pelo povo da Costa Rica). É desnecessário dizer que a separação não era fácil. Aprendeu que “viajar é perder pessoas”. Mas mesmo assim, isso não era motivo para não continuar.

description: Twenty-one meteors showing double peaked light curves were analysed with observations collected with the Canadian Automated Meteor Observatory tracking system. Each event has orbital information, photometry, and at least one high-resolution observation. Two distinct light curve shapes were found: sudden double peaked curves, and smooth double peaked curves. The sudden peaked curves were produced by objects on asteroidal orbits and mostly showed noticeable fragmentation, while the smooth peaked curves were produced by cometary meteoroids and predominantly showed little to no visible fragmentation. An attempt to model these meteors as single bodies with two chemical components was unsuccessful, implying that fragmentation must be included in meteoroid ablation models.

description: Discrete scale invariance (DSI) has recently been documented in time-to-failure rupture, earthquake processes and financial crashes, in the fractal geometry of growth processes and in random systems. The main signature of DSI is the presence of log-periodic oscillations correcting the usual power laws, corresponding to complex exponents. Log-periodic structures are important because they reveal the presence of preferred scaling ratios of the underlying physical processes. Here, we present new evidence of log-periodicity overlaying the leading power law behavior of probability density distributions of affine random maps with parametric noise. The log-periodicity is due to intermittent amplifying multiplicative events. We quantify precisely the progressive smoothing of the log-periodic structures as the randomness increases and find a large robustness. Our results provide useful markers for the search of log-periodicity in numerical and experimental data.

description: The plane of bacterial cell division must be precisely positioned. In the bacterium Myxococcus xanthus, the proteins PomX and PomY form a large cluster, which is tethered to the nucleoid by the ATPase PomZ and moves in a stochastic, but biased manner towards midcell, where it initiates cell division. Previously, a positioning mechanism based on the fluxes of PomZ on the nucleoid was proposed. However, the cluster dynamics was analyzed in a reduced, one-dimensional geometry. Here we introduce a mathematical model that accounts for the three-dimensional shape of the nucleoid, such that nucleoid-bound PomZ dimers can diffuse past the cluster without interacting with it. Using stochastic simulations, we find that the cluster still moves to and localizes at midcell. Redistribution of PomZ by diffusion in the cytosol is essential for this cluster dynamics. Our mechanism also positions two clusters equidistantly on the nucleoid. We conclude that a flux-based mechanism allows for cluster positioning in a biologically realistic three-dimensional cell geometry.

description: We investigate the semi-classical instability of vacuum domain walls to processes where the domain walls decay by the formation of closed string loop boundaries on their worldvolumes. Intuitively, a wall which is initially spherical may `pop', so that a hole corresponding to a string boundary component on the wall, may form. We find instantons, and calculate the rates, for such processes. We show that after puncture, the hole grows exponentially at the same rate that the wall expands. It follows that the wall is never completely thermalized by a single expanding hole; at arbitrarily late times there is still a large, thin shell of matter which may drive an exponential expansion of the universe. We also study the situation where the wall is subjected to multiple punctures. We find that in order to completely annihilate the wall by this process, at least four string loops must be nucleated. We argue that this process may be relevant in certain brane-world scenarios, where the universe itself is a domain wall.

description: Improvement of carcass merit traits is a priority for the beef industry. Discovering DNA variants and genes associated with variation in these traits and understanding biological functions/processes underlying their associations are of paramount importance for more effective genetic improvement of carcass merit traits in beef cattle. This study integrates 10,488,742 imputed whole genome DNA variants, 31 plasma metabolites, and animal phenotypes to identify genes and biological functions/processes that are associated with carcass merit traits including hot carcass weight (HCW), rib eye area (REA), average backfat thickness (AFAT), lean meat yield (LMY), and carcass marbling score (CMAR) in a population of 493 crossbred beef cattle. Regression analyses were performed to identify plasma metabolites associated with the carcass merit traits, and the results showed that 4 (3-hydroxybutyric acid, acetic acid, citric acid, and choline), 6 (creatinine, L-glutamine, succinic acid, pyruvic acid, L-lactic acid, and 3-hydroxybutyric acid), 4 (fumaric acid, methanol, D-glucose, and glycerol), 2 (L-lactic acid and creatinine), and 5 (succinic acid, fumaric acid, lysine, glycine, and choline) plasma metabolites were significantly associated with HCW, REA, AFAT, LMY, and CMAR (P-value < 0.1), respectively. Combining the results of metabolome-genome wide association studies using the 10,488,742 imputed SNPs, 103, 160, 83, 43, and 109 candidate genes were identified as significantly associated with HCW, REA, AFAT, LMY, and CMAR (P-value < 1 × 10–5), respectively. By applying functional enrichment analyses for candidate genes of each trait, 26, 24, 26, 24, and 28 significant cellular and molecular functions were predicted for HCW, REA, AFAT, LMY, and CMAR, respectively. Among the five topmost significantly enriched biological functions for carcass merit traits, molecular transport and small molecule biochemistry were two top biological functions associated with all carcass merit traits. Lipid metabolism was the most significant biological function for LMY and CMAR and it was also the second and fourth highest biological function for REA and HCW, respectively. Candidate genes and enriched biological functions identified by the integrative analyses of metabolites with phenotypic traits and DNA variants could help interpret the results of previous genome-wide association studies for carcass merit traits. Our integrative study also revealed additional potential novel genes associated with these economically important traits. Therefore, our study improves understanding of the molecular and biological functions/processes that influence carcass merit traits, which could help develop strategies to enhance genomic prediction of carcass merit traits with incorporation of metabolomic data. Similarly, this information could guide management practices, such as nutritional interventions, with the purpose of boosting specific carcass merit traits.

description: The scattering matrix approach to phase-coherent transport is generalized to nonlinear ac-transport. In photon-assisted electron transport it is often only the dc-component of the current that is of experimental interest. But ac-currents at all frequencies exist independently of whether they are measured or not. We present a theory of photon-assisted electron transport which is charge and current conserving for all Fourier components of the current. We find that the photo-current can be considered as an up- and down-conversion of the harmonic potentials associated with the displacement currents. As an example explicit calculations are presented for a resonant double barrier coupled to two reservoirs and capacitively coupled to a gate. Two experimental situations are considered: in the first case the ac-field is applied via a gate, and in the second case one of the contact potentials is modulated. For the first case we show that the relative weight of the conduction sidebands varies with the screening properties of the system. In contrast to the non-interacting case the relative weights are not determined by Bessel functions. Moreover, interactions can give rise to an asymmetry between absorption and emission peaks. In the contact driven case, the theory predicts a zero-bias current proportional to the asymmetry of the double barrier. This is in contrast to the discussion of Tien and Gordon which, in violation of basic symmetry principles, predicts a zero-bias current also for a symmetric double barrier.

description: One-dimensional potentials defined by $V^{(S)}(x) =S(S+1) \hbar^2 π^2 /[2ma^2\sin^2(πx/a)]$ (for integer $S$) arise in the repeated supersymmetrization of the infinite square well, here defined over the region $(0,a)$. We review the derivation of this hierarchy of potentials and then use the methods of supersymmetric quantum mechanics, as well as more familiar textbook techniques, to derive compact closed-form expressions for the normalized solutions, $ψ_n^{(S)}(x)$, for all $V^{(S)}(x)$ in terms of well-known special functions in a pedagogically accessible manner. We also note how the solutions can be obtained as a special case of a family of shape-invariant potentials, the trigonometric Pöschl-Teller potentials, which can be used to confirm our results. We then suggest additional avenues for research questions related to, and pedagogical applications of, these solutions, including the behavior of the corresponding momentum-space wave functions $ϕ_n^{(S)}(p)$ for large $|p|$ and general questions about the supersymmetric hierarchies of potentials which include an infinite barrier.

description: We discuss the mechanism of reheating in pre-big bang string cosmology and we calculate the amount of moduli and gravitinos produced gravitationally and in scattering processes of the thermal bath. We find that this abundance always exceeds the limits imposed by big-bang nucleosynthesis, and significant entropy production is required. The exact amount of entropy needed depends on the details of the high curvature phase between the dilaton-driven inflationary era and the radiation era. We show that the domination and decay of the zero-mode of a modulus field, which could well be the dilaton, or of axions, suffices to dilute moduli and gravitinos. In this context, baryogenesis can be accomodated in a simple way via the Affleck-Dine mechanism and in some cases the Affleck-Dine condensate could provide both the source of entropy and the baryon asymmetry.

Vortex Contribution to Specific Heat of Dirty $d$-Wave Superconductors: Breakdown of Scaling

description: We consider the problem of the vortex contribution to thermal properties of dirty d-wave superconductors. In the clean limit, the main contribution to the density of states in a d-wave superconductor arises from extended quasiparticle states which may be treated semiclassically, giving rise to a specific heat contribution δC(H)\sim H^{1/2}. We show that the extended states continue to dominate the dirty limit, but lead to a H \log H behavior at the lowest fields, H_{c1}\ltsim H\ll H_{c2}. This crossover may explain recent discrepancies in specific heat measurements at low temperatures and fields in the cuprate superconductors. We discuss the range of validity of recent predictions of scaling with H^{1/2}/T in real samples.

description: The present study introduces an effective and rapid method for isolation of antifungal compound ricinine from Ricinus communis (L.). In this respect, the tender leaves of R. communis were extracted using methanol and tested for antifungal activity against a panel of dermatophytes and plant pathogenic fungi. Primarily, the total extract exhibited broad-spectrum antifungal activity with the zones of inhibition ranging from 12 ± 1.00 to 18.66 ± 1.52 mm. Further, investigation of chemical constituents led to the isolation of a cyano-pyridone alkaloid, ricinine using acid-base extraction. The compound exhibited significant antifungal activity with MIC values ranging from 6.25-250 µg/mL against the tested pathogenic fungi. Particularly, antifungal activity was recorded against A. flavus with the MIC value of 7.81 µg/mL followed by B. cinerea and A. niger with 15.62 µg/mL, respectively; T. mentagrophytes and T. rubrum with 62.5 µg/mL, respectively and it showed weak activity against Scopulariopsis sp. with 250 µg/mL. This efficient result provide new insights on large-scale isolation and identification of 4-methoxy-1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (Ricinine) which possess potent antifungal activity. In conclusion, the compound ricinine can be used as potential antifungal agent for controlling plant pathogenic fungi as well dermatophytes. Further, this potentially useful technique is operationally simple, safe, time-saving and inexpensive, and can be applied by medicinal, pharmaceutical and scientific research for the isolation of other potentially useful alkaloids in the drug discovery programs.

description: The |ΔI|=1/2 rule in non-leptonic decays of hyperons can be naturally understood by postulating a priori mixed physical hadrons, along with the isospin invariance of the responsible transition operator. It is shown that this operator can be identified with the strong interaction Yukawa hamiltonian.

description: In addition to the conventional contribution that is directly controlled by the single-particle energy spectrum, the superfluid phase stiffness of a two-component Fermi gas has a geometric contribution that is governed by the quantum metric of the honeycomb's band structure. Here, we take both contributions into account, and construct phase diagrams for the critical superfluid transition temperature as a function of the chemical potential, particle filling, onsite interaction and next-nearest-neighbor hopping. Our theoretical approach is based on a self-consistent solution of the BCS mean-field theory for the stationary Cooper pairs and the universal BKT relation for the phase fluctuations.

description: O objetivo deste trabalho é mostrar a influência que a cultura exerce na música metal, disponibilizando, mais do que um trabalho, um estudo que permita também esclarecer algumas dúvidas e preconceitos relativamente a um género musical que tem pouca exposição e influência não só em Portugal, como em muitos outros países. O metal é cultura, mas em muitos países não existe a cultura deste género musical. Este não é apenas um tipo de música, mas uma forma de vida com tradições e costumes próprios. A cultura do metal é um modo de distanciamento dos erros percetuais básicos inerentes ao pensamento que produziu a história humana e a sociedade, implementando a independência, consciência e valores ligados à satisfação e hedonismo como uma forma de expressão individual. O metal formou-se a partir de uma ideia básica de descrença nos valores inerentes da sociedade e a partir desse ponto examinou tabus e explorou medos, levando à adoção do niilismo como uma técnica intelectual para entender o caos que nos rodeia. Tal como a cultura não é estática, o metal também não se limita a um tipo musical estático, mas que vai sofrendo modificações ao longo do tempo, dando origem a novos tipos de música. Iremos então estudar as circunstâncias sociológicas e ideológicas, que foram determinantes no aparecimento do metal e nas suas modificações, através de história humana, teoria musical, simbolismo e comportamentos. Por outras palavras, iremos ver de que forma a cultura influenciou o aparecimento e evolução deste género musical.
