Integrability and Dif feomorphisms on Target Space
(National Academy of Science of Ukraine, 2007)We briefly review the concepts of generalized zero curvature conditions and integrability in higher dimensions, where integrability in this context is related to the existence of infinitely many conservation laws. Under ... -
eIMRT: a web platform for the verification and optimization of radiation treatment plans
(Wiley, 2009)The eIMRT platform is a remote distributed computing tool that provides users with Internet access to three different services: Monte Carlo optimization of treatment plans, CRT & IMRT treatment optimization, and a database ... -
Potential groundwater contribution to Amazon evapotranspiration
(Copernicus Publications, 2010)Climate and land ecosystem models simulate a dry-season vegetation stress in the Amazon forest, but observations do not support these results, indicating adequate water supply. Proposed mechanisms include larger soil water ... -
The role of mesoscale eddies time and length scales on phytoplankton production
(Copernicus Publications, 2010)Horizontal mixing has been found to play a crucial role in the development of spatial plankton structures in the ocean. We study the influence of time and length scales of two different horizontal two-dimensional (2-D) ... -
O camiño á complexidade: por que a economía debería seguir á física
(Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 2012)Na presente contribución mostraremos que a dirección dominante da economía contemporánea, tras o seu desenvolvemento inicial no marco conceptual e analítico da física clásica do século XIX, segue ancorada no seu “core” ... -
Posibilidade, necesidade e tratamento da complexidade na física: unha aproximación histórica
(Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 2012)Neste traballo faise un percorrido ao longo da historia da física, partindo do que é posible especular sobre as actitudes protocientíficas dos primeiros seres humanos e rematando polas máis importantes achegas á disciplina ... -
Dual Drug Release of Triamterene and Aminophylline from Poly (N-Isopropylacrylamide) Hydrogels
(Sage Publications, 2012)We used temperature-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogels as drug delivery systems, so changes in body temperature induced by pathogens could act like external stimuli to activate controlled release of the drugs ... -
An effective-charge model for the trapping of impurities of fluids in channels with nanostructured walls
(Springer, 2013)We present model equations for the trapping and accumulation of particles in a cylindrical channel with nanostructured inner walls when a fluid passes through, carrying a moderate load of impurities. The basic ingredient of ... -
Precision measurement of the B0s–B0s oscillation frequency with the decay B0s →D−sπ+
(IOP Publishing, 2013)A key ingredient to searches for physics beyond the Standard Model in B0s mixing phenomena is the measurement of the B0s – B0 s oscillation frequency, which is equivalent to the mass difference 1ms of the B0s mass ... -
Path-integrated Lagrangian measures from the velocity gradient tensor
(Copernicus Publications, 2013)Spatial maps of the finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE) have been used extensively to study LCS in two-dimensional dynamical systems, in particular with application to transport in unsteady fluid flows. We use ... -
Towards inkjet-printed low cost passive UHF RFID skin mounted tattoo paper tags based on silver nanoparticle inks
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013)The present work describes the inkjet printing and low temperature sintering of silver nanoparticle inks onto transfer tattoo paper. Our approach results in silver features of excellent resolution and conductivity and, ... -
Angular analysis of charged and neutral B → Kμ + μ − decays
(Springer, 2014)The angular distributions of the rare decays B + → K + μ + μ − and B0→K0Sμ+μ− are studied with data corresponding to 3fb−1 of integrated luminosity, collected in proton-proton collisions at 7 and 8 TeV centre-of-mass ... -
Beauty production in pp collisions at √s=2.76 TeV measured via semi-electronic decays
(Elsevier, 2014)The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC reports measurement of the inclusive production cross section of electrons from semi-leptonic decays of beauty hadrons with rapidity |y| <0.8and transverse momentum 1 <pT<10GeV/c, in pp ... -

Potential hydrologic changes in the Amazon by the end of the 21st century and the groundwater buffer
(IOP Publishing, 2014)This study contributes to the discussions on the future of the Amazon rainforest under a projected warmer-drier climate from the perspectives of land hydrology. Using IPCC HadGEM2-ES simulations of the present and future ... -
