O espelho invertido

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir de que modo a pintura dos imigrantes japoneses residentes no Brasil está de alguma maneira relacionada ao que o Japão produziu nos períodos moderno e contemporâneo. Ao longo de sua pesquisa, o autor constatava com espanto que a grande maioria dos japoneses não fazia ideia da importância cultural que possuem seus imigrantes para o contexto brasileiro. A conclusão primeira era a de que seria muito difícil estabelecer uma comparação direta entre os dois grupos sem levar em consideração um estilo internacional (americano e europeu), bem como a personalidade e o estilo dos artistas abordados.The aim of this article is to discuss how the Japanese immigrant painting is related somehow to what Japan produced in the modern and contemporary period. During the research the author was shocked by the fact that the majority of the Japanese have no idea about the cultural importance of their immigrants in the Brazilian context. The author conclusion is that is very difficult to establish a direct comparison between theses two trends without taking into account the international style (American and European) as well as the personality and style of the artists taking into account

Venice in Volpi

The article seeks to investigate how Volpi’s voyage to Europe, specially Venice, has had a significant impact on the artist’s pictorial work since this city has chromatic and urban features that can be seen in the artist’s paintings from the 50’s. Este artigo indaga em que medida a viagem realizada por Volpi para a Europa, em particular a Veneza, teve impacto significativo na sua obra pictórica, pois esta cidade possui características cromáticas e urbanísticas que podem ser vistas nas pinturas do artista a partir da década de 1950.  &nbsp

International Standard Problem No 50 – The University of Pisa contribution

The present paper deals with the participation of the University of Pisa in the last International Standard Problem (ISP) focused on system thermal hydraulic, which was led by the Korean Atomic Energy Research Institution (KAERI). The selected test was a Direct Vessel Injection (DVI) line break carried out at the ATLAS facility. University of Pisa participated, together with other eighteen institutions, in both blind and open phase of the analytical exercise pursuing its methodology for developing and qualifying a nodalization. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the code results have been performed for both ISP-50 phases, the latter adopting the Fast Fourier Transfer Based Method (FFTBM). The experiment has been characterized by three dimensional behavior in downcomer and core region. Even though an attempt to reproduce these phenomena, by developing a fictitious three-dimensional nodalization has been realized, the obtained results were generally acceptable but not fully satisfactory in replicating 3D behavio

A viagem como formação

O texto discorre sobre como o ato de viajar pode despertar e formar um pensamento plástico. Neste sentido, uma série de considerações históricas confere diferentes sentidos a uma atividade que embora extra cotidiana, acaba por propiciar uma dimensão estética ao simples ato de ver o mundo ao redor numa nova perspectiva.

The Sun as a target for axion dark matter detection

The exploration of the parameter space of axion and axion-like particle dark matter is a major aim of the future program of astroparticle physics investigations. In this context, we present a possible strategy that focuses on detecting radio emissions arising from the conversion of dark matter axions in the Sun's magnetic field, including conversion in sunspots. We demonstrate that near-future low-frequency radio telescopes, such as the SKA Low, may access regions of unexplored parameter space for masses $m_a\lesssim 10^{-6}$ eV.Comment: Matches published version in PLB 85
