La Música Tradicional Chilena y su relevancia en los procesos de aprendizaje y enseñanza de algunos casos de la comuna de Talca
91 p.La Música Tradicional Chilena ha sido considerada por la sociedad como pariente pobre entendiendo a la tradición clásica europea como referente de calidad musical. Algo contradictorio respecto a lo que el ámbito educacional y la ley pretenden promover desde el currículum oficial; y a las implicancias de los procesos de construcción identitaria que trasuntan estas valoraciones. Desde hace algunas décadas en lo que respecta a educación formal, el Folclor, como es comúnmente conocido, ha sido considerado en los contenidos obligatorios de los planes y programas del Ministerio de Educación. La aclaración de conceptos relacionados a este tema, se destaca como uno de los contenidos fundamentales de aporte de esta investigación más allá de ser un marco conceptual formal requerido, ya que la diferenciación, por ejemplo, entre los términos de Música Tradicional Chilena y Música Folclórica, es desconocida por los docentes a cargo de estos procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. El objetivo principal es descubrir y describir la relevancia de la Música Tradicional Chilena, desde la constatación de su apreciación, necesidad, conocimiento y la identificación que una parte de la población, según los alcances de una tesis de pregrado reconoce. Cuál es el espacio que se le da en la comunidad escolar; así como por qué los profesores debiesen enseñarla a sus estudiantes, y su reflejo en la identificación con el patrimonio cultural de nuestro país, son temas estructurales que se desarrollarán en el presente trabajo. Desde el marco de un estudio de caso instrumental, esta investigación se centra en la revisión bibliográfica y la recolección de datos involucrando actores del medio educativo escolar formal y no formal, de distintos niveles, que influyen directamente en procesos formativos en el tema y que han aportado con opiniones, información y descripciones respecto a cómo se está desarrollando la enseñanza de la Música Tradicional Chilena. Con todo, la pretensión es comprender el caso con el fin de inferir posibles líneas definidas de desarrollo en procesos de formación inicial docente, en concordancia con los fundamentos que la posicionan, y su relación con fenómenos como la globalización, decisiones políticas nacionales, culturales, familiares y pedagógicas
At the beginnings of the funerary Megalithism in Iberia at Campo de Hockey necropolis
The excavations undertaken at the Campo de Hockey site in 2008 led to the identification of a major Neolithic necropolis in the former Island of San Fernando (Bay of Cádiz). This work presents the results of the latest studies, which indicate that the site stands as one of the oldest megalithic necropolises in the Iberian Peninsula. The main aim of this work is to present with precision the chronology of this necropolis through a Bayesian statistical model that confirms that the necropolis was in use from c. 4300 to 3800 cal BC. The presence of prestige grave goods in the earliest and most monumental graves suggest that the Megalithism phenomenon emerged in relation to maritime routes linked to the distribution of exotic products. We also aim to examine funerary practices in these early megalithic communities, and especially their way of life and the social reproduction system. As such, in addition to the chronological information and the Bayesian statistics, we provide the results of a comprehensive interdisciplinary study, including anthropological, archaeometric and genetic data.Archaeological background: the Campo de Hockey settlement Methods - Tomb typology - Radiocarbon dates and Bayesian analysis. - Bioarchaeology. - DNA - Grave goods Results - Tomb typology - Radiocarbon dating: Bayesian analysis - Bioarchaeology. - DNA - Grave goods.

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies
We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC
Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for
gamma-ray signals from dark matter annihilation in dwarf satellite galaxies. We
combine 158 hours of Segue 1 observations with MAGIC with 6-year observations
of 15 dwarf satellite galaxies by the Fermi-LAT. We obtain limits on the
annihilation cross-section for dark matter particle masses between 10 GeV and
100 TeV - the widest mass range ever explored by a single gamma-ray analysis.
These limits improve on previously published Fermi-LAT and MAGIC results by up
to a factor of two at certain masses. Our new inclusive analysis approach is
completely generic and can be used to perform a global, sensitivity-optimized
dark matter search by combining data from present and future gamma-ray and
neutrino detectors.Comment: 19 pages, 3 figures. V2: Few typos corrected and references added.

Long-term multi-wavelength variability and correlation study of Markarian 421 from 2007 to 2009
We study the multi-band variability and correlations of the TeV blazar Mrk
421 on year time scales, which can bring additional insight on the processes
responsible for its broadband emission. We observed Mrk 421 in the very high
energy (VHE) gamma-ray range with the Cherenkov telescope MAGIC-I from March
2007 to June 2009 for a total of 96 hours of effective time after quality cuts.
The VHE flux variability is quantified with several methods, including the
Bayesian Block algorithm, which is applied to data from Cherenkov telescopes
for the first time. The 2.3 year long MAGIC light curve is complemented with
data from the Swift/BAT and RXTE/ASM satellites and the KVA, GASP-WEBT, OVRO,
and Mets\"ahovi telescopes from February 2007 to July 2009, allowing for an
excellent characterisation of the multi-band variability and correlations over
year time scales. Mrk 421 was found in different gamma-ray emission states
during the 2.3 year long observation period. Flares and different levels of
variability in the gamma-ray light curve could be identified with the Bayesian
Block algorithm. The same behaviour of a quiet and active emission was found in
the X-ray light curves measured by Swift/BAT and the RXTE/ASM, with a direct
correlation in time. The behaviour of the optical light curve of GASP-WEBT and
the radio light curves by OVRO and Mets\"ahovi are different as they show no
coincident features with the higher energetic light curves and a less variable
emission. The fractional variability is overall increasing with energy. The
comparable variability in the X-ray and VHE bands and their direct correlation
during both high- and low-activity periods spanning many months show that the
electron populations radiating the X-ray and gamma-ray photons are either the
same, as expected in the Synchrotron-Self-Compton mechanism, or at least
strongly correlated, as expected in electromagnetic cascades.Comment: Corresponding authors: Ann-Kristin Overkemping

Measurement of the Crab Nebula spectrum over three decades in energy with the MAGIC telescopes
The MAGIC stereoscopic system collected 69 hours of Crab Nebula data between
October 2009 and April 2011. Analysis of this data sample using the latest
improvements in the MAGIC stereoscopic software provided an unprecedented
precision of spectral and night-by-night light curve determination at gamma
rays. We derived a differential spectrum with a single instrument from 50 GeV
up to almost 30 TeV with 5 bins per energy decade. At low energies, MAGIC
results, combined with Fermi-LAT data, show a flat and broad Inverse Compton
peak. The overall fit to the data between 1 GeV and 30 TeV is not well
described by a log-parabola function. We find that a modified log-parabola
function with an exponent of 2.5 instead of 2 provides a good description of
the data (). Using systematic uncertainties of red the MAGIC and
Fermi-LAT measurements we determine the position of the Inverse Compton peak to
be at (53 3stat + 31syst -13syst) GeV, which is the most precise
estimation up to date and is dominated by the systematic effects. There is no
hint of the integral flux variability on daily scales at energies above 300 GeV
when systematic uncertainties are included in the flux measurement. We consider
three state- of-the-art theoretical models to describe the overall spectral
energy distribution of the Crab Nebula. The constant B-field model cannot
satisfactorily reproduce the VHE spectral measurements presented in this work,
having particular difficulty reproducing the broadness of the observed IC peak.
Most probably this implies that the assumption of the homogeneity of the
magnetic field inside the nebula is incorrect. On the other hand, the
time-dependent 1D spectral model provides a good fit of the new VHE results
when considering a 80 {\mu}G magnetic field. However, it fails to match the
data when including the morphology of the nebula at lower wavelengths.Comment: accepted by JHEAp, 9 pages, 6 figure
Detection of bridge emission above 50 GeV from the Crab pulsar with the MAGIC telescopes
The Crab pulsar is the only astronomical pulsed source detected at very high
energy (VHE, E>100GeV) gamma-rays. The emission mechanism of VHE pulsation is
not yet fully understood, although several theoretical models have been
proposed. In order to test the new models, we measured the light curve and the
spectra of the Crab pulsar with high precision by means of deep observations.
We analyzed 135 hours of selected MAGIC data taken between 2009 and 2013 in
stereoscopic mode. In order to discuss the spectral shape in connection with
lower energies, 4.6 years of {\it Fermi}-LAT data were also analyzed. The known
two pulses per period were detected with a significance of and
. In addition, significant emission was found between the two
pulses with . We discovered the bridge emission above 50 GeV
between the two main pulses. This emission can not be explained with the
existing theories. These data can be used for testing new theoretical models.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
MAGIC observations of MWC 656, the only known Be/BH system
Context: MWC 656 has recently been established as the first observationally
detected high-mass X-ray binary system containing a Be star and a black hole
(BH). The system has been associated with a gamma-ray flaring event detected by
the AGILE satellite in July 2010. Aims: Our aim is to evaluate if the MWC 656
gamma-ray emission extends to very high energy (VHE > 100 GeV) gamma rays.
Methods. We have observed MWC 656 with the MAGIC telescopes for 23 hours
during two observation periods: between May and June 2012 and June 2013. During
the last period, observations were performed contemporaneously with X-ray
(XMM-Newton) and optical (STELLA) instruments. Results: We have not detected
the MWC 656 binary system at TeV energies with the MAGIC Telescopes in either
of the two campaigns carried out. Upper limits (ULs) to the integral flux above
300 GeV have been set, as well as differential ULs at a level of 5% of
the Crab Nebula flux. The results obtained from the MAGIC observations do not
support persistent emission of very high energy gamma rays from this system at
a level of 2.4% the Crab flux.Comment: Accepted for publication in A&A. 5 pages, 2 figures, 2 table
