A characterization of dual quermassintegrals and the roots of dual steiner polynomials

For any $I\subset\mathbb{R}$ finite with $0\in I$, we provide a characterization of those tuples $(\omega_i)_{i\in I}$ of positive numbers which are dual querma\ss integrals of two star bodies. It turns out that this problem is related to the moment problem. Based on this relation we also get new inequalities for the dual querma\ss integrals. Moreover, the above characterization will be the key tool in order to investigate structural properties of the set of roots of dual Steiner polynomials of star bodies

Prompt photon yield and v2v_2 coefficient from gluon fusion induced by magnetic field in heavy-ion collision

We compute the production of prompt photons and the $v_2$ harmonic coefficient in relativistic heavy-ion collisions induced by gluon fusion in the presence of an intense magnetic field, during the early stages of the reaction. The calculations take into account several parameters which are relevant to the description of the experimental transverse momentum distribution, and elliptic flow for RHIC and LHC energies. The main imput is the strength of the magnetic field which varies in magnitude from 1 to 3 times the pion mass squared, and allows the gluon fusion that otherwise is forbidden in the absence of the field. The high gluon occupation number and the value of the saturation scale also play an important role in our calculation, as well as a flow velocity and geometrical factors. Our results support the idea that the origin of at least some of the photon excess observed in heavy-ion experiments may arise from magnetic field induced processes, and gives a good description of the experimental data.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, conference paper from ISMD 201

Desde África a Latinoamérica : encuentro diacrónico de mujeres pintoras

In this article, we propose to explain a situation that presents some complexity because it refers to different levels, all of which are given off to relate the work of women painters which, despite being produced in different times and contexts such geographically distant between them, they share certain biographical circumstances. All in all, we aim to link here all the limitations that they found in their respective artistic paths, it means, exposing their lives, something crucial in the path taken by each of them, from Peru in Latin America, via Canary Islands until South Africa. To this purpose we find appropriate the feminist theory. Which theory is now plural, heterogeneous, once the scheme has exceeded monolithic Eurocentric, of the initial feminism new codes and change the hegemonic discourse. Opens the way for minorities in particular, we are interested in highlighting the importance of autobiography to legitimize marginalized spaces, mostly in the domestic field. What we want, taking into account diversity, is to meet the specific testimony to trace the traits that unifies the experience of a Latin American painter, one of the Canary Islands and Africa

An Application of SVM to Lost Packets Reconstruction in Voice-Enabled Services

Voice over IP (VoIP) is becoming very popular due to the huge range of services that can be implemented by integrating different media (voice, audio, data, etc.). Besides, voice-enabled interfaces for those services are being very actively researched. Nevertheless the impoverishment of voice quality due to packet losses severely affects the speech recognizers supporting those interfaces ([8]). In this paper, we have compared the usual lost packets reconstruction method with an SVM-based one that outperforms previous results

A rapid procedure for the isolation of plasmid DNA from environmental bacteria

The INSTA-MINI-PREP method, a rapid protocol for plasmid DNA extraction, was originally developed to prepare plasmid DNA from 1 to 3 ml miniprep Escherichia coli cultures. Direct extraction of plasmid DNA is achieved by a two-phase solution which is separated by centrifugation in the presence of the INSTA-PREP gel barrier material. This method has been successfully tested on various environmental Salmonella strains, although it was not suitable for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and enterococci strains. The INSTA-MINI-PREP method is a new alternative procedure to screen plasmid contents of Salmonella and E. coli strains rapidly and easily
