Trajetos e Trajetórias na Horta Comunitária Lomba do Pinheiro
Um monge renunciante, uma cozinheira de mão cheia e duas líderes comunitárias: Radhanti Maharaj, Dona Tetê, Lurdes e Ana são algumas das trajetórias que compõem nossa etnofotografia rumo aos caminhos da Horta. As personagens, entretanto, são muitas, assim como são diversas as motivações que as levam ao espaço rururbano de agricultura comunitária e agroecológica. Os retratos aqui trazidos são uma forma de representar essa quantidade de histórias e de vidas perpassadas por saberes e fazeres como plantar, cultivar e colher. Ao sabor de um sopão ou um de chá de hibisco, o lugar serve para discutir a alimentação e a vida na comunidade, organizar eventos, fazer yoga. Mas mais que compartilhar mudas e sementes, o importante é compartilhar sorrisos e abraços, encontros e afetos. São tantas hortas na mesma horta, tantas facetas evocadas: um saber-fazer que é político, econômico, terapêutico, ecológico e afetivo. Nosso trabalho tem esse olhar: o olhar das pessoas da horta, suas histórias, trajetos e trajetórias
Gauge Invariant Fractional Electromagnetic Fields
Fractional derivatives and integrations of non-integers orders was introduced
more than three centuries ago but only recently gained more attention due to
its application on nonlocal phenomenas. In this context, several formulations
of fractional electromagnetic fields was proposed, but all these theories
suffer from the absence of an effective fractional vector calculus, and in
general are non-causal or spatially asymmetric. In order to deal with these
difficulties, we propose a spatially symmetric and causal gauge invariant
fractional electromagnetic field from a Lagrangian formulation. From our
fractional Maxwell's fields arose a definition for the fractional gradient,
divergent and curl operators.Comment: accepted for publication in Physics Letters
ACHADO ACIDENTAL DE AGENESIA RENAL UNILATERAL EM UM PAPAGAIO-DE-PEITO-ROXO (AMAZONA VINACEA) EM EXAME NECROSCÓPICO - RELATO DE CASO
Durante o procedimento necroscópico de um papagaio-do-peito-roxo, fêmea, notou-se ausência de estrutura renal do lado direito, o qual era compreendido apenas por uma cápsula. Foi observado discreto aumento do rim esquerdo, caracterizando hipertrofia de rim contralateral, provocado por mecanismos compensatórios, devido à ausência de um rim. Constatou-se Agenesia Renal, cujo diagnóstico foi ocasional no momento da necropsia, e não possuía relação com os sinais clínicos apresentados pelo animal em vida, bem como não afetava nenhuma condição fisiológica do animal.
ACÚMULO DE FERRO NO FÍGADO DE UM TUCANO (RAMPHASTOS TOCO) - RELATO DE CASO
Foi recebido para atendimento na Clínica Veterinária Amazoo Pets, localizada no município de Jundiaí, São Paulo um exemplar de tucano-toco (Ramphastos toco). No exame clínico o animal apresentava dispneia, apatia, fraqueza e dificuldade de manter-se em estação. Este veio a óbito no mesmo dia, e durante a realização do exame necroscópico foi observado hepatomegalia acentuada, onde o órgão se encontrava de coloração acastanhada, com bordos regulares e consistência normal. Foram colhidos fragmentos do fígado e fixado em solução de formalina a 10%, para processamento histológico e avaliação microscópica. As lâminas foram coradas com o corante de Hematoxilina e Eosina (HE) e Reação Azul da Prússia (Técnica de Pearls). Somando os achados clínicos, macroscópicos e confirmação microscópica, foi possível diagnosticar a doença do acúmulo de ferro em um tucano
Nonfactorizable contributions in B decays to charmonium: the case of
Nonleptonic to charmonium decays generally show deviations from the
factorization predictions. For example, the mode has
been experimentally observed with sizeable branching fraction while its
factorized amplitude vanishes. We investigate the role of rescattering effects
mediated by intermediate charmed meson production in this class of decay modes,
and consider with the meson.
Using an effective lagrangian describing interactions of pairs of heavy-light
mesons with a quarkonium state, we relate this mode to the
analogous mode with in the final state. We find large enough to be measured at the factories, so that this decay
mode could be used to study the poorly known .Comment: RevTex, 16 pages, 2 eps figure
Rare Decays of \Lambda_b->\Lambda + \gamma and \Lambda_b ->\Lambda + l^{+} l^{-} in the Light-cone Sum Rules
Within the Standard Model, we investigate the weak decays of and with the light-cone
sum rules approach. The higher twist distribution amplitudes of
baryon to the leading conformal spin are included in the sum rules for
transition form factors. Our results indicate that the higher twist
distribution amplitudes almost have no influences on the transition form
factors retaining the heavy quark spin symmetry, while such corrections can
result in significant impacts on the form factors breaking the heavy quark spin
symmetry. Two phenomenological models (COZ and FZOZ) for the wave function of
baryon are also employed in the sum rules for a comparison, which can
give rise to the form factors approximately 5 times larger than that in terms
of conformal expansion. Utilizing the form factors calculated in LCSR, we then
perform a careful study on the decay rate, polarization asymmetry and
forward-backward asymmetry, with respect to the decays of , .Comment: 38 pages, 15 figures, some typos are corrected and more references

Two-Proton Correlations from 14.6A GeV/c Si+Pb and 11.5A GeV/c Au+Au Central Collisions
Two-proton correlation functions have been measured in Si+Pb collisions at
14.6A GeV/c and Au+Au collisions at 11.5A GeV/c by the E814/E877 collaboration.
Data are compared with predictions of the transport model RQMD and the source
size is inferred from this comparison. Our analysis shows that, for both
reactions, the characteristic size of the system at freeze-out exceeds the size
of the projectile, suggesting that the fireball created in the collision has
expanded. For Au+Au reactions, the observed centrality dependence of the
two-proton correlation function implies that more central collisions lead to a
larger source sizes.Comment: RevTex, 12 pages, 5 figure
Heavy quarkonium: progress, puzzles, and opportunities
A golden age for heavy quarkonium physics dawned a decade ago, initiated by
the confluence of exciting advances in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and an
explosion of related experimental activity. The early years of this period were
chronicled in the Quarkonium Working Group (QWG) CERN Yellow Report (YR) in
2004, which presented a comprehensive review of the status of the field at that
time and provided specific recommendations for further progress. However, the
broad spectrum of subsequent breakthroughs, surprises, and continuing puzzles
could only be partially anticipated. Since the release of the YR, the BESII
program concluded only to give birth to BESIII; the -factories and CLEO-c
flourished; quarkonium production and polarization measurements at HERA and the
Tevatron matured; and heavy-ion collisions at RHIC have opened a window on the
deconfinement regime. All these experiments leave legacies of quality,
precision, and unsolved mysteries for quarkonium physics, and therefore beg for
continuing investigations. The plethora of newly-found quarkonium-like states
unleashed a flood of theoretical investigations into new forms of matter such
as quark-gluon hybrids, mesonic molecules, and tetraquarks. Measurements of the
spectroscopy, decays, production, and in-medium behavior of c\bar{c}, b\bar{b},
and b\bar{c} bound states have been shown to validate some theoretical
approaches to QCD and highlight lack of quantitative success for others. The
intriguing details of quarkonium suppression in heavy-ion collisions that have
emerged from RHIC have elevated the importance of separating hot- and
cold-nuclear-matter effects in quark-gluon plasma studies. This review
systematically addresses all these matters and concludes by prioritizing
directions for ongoing and future efforts.Comment: 182 pages, 112 figures. Editors: N. Brambilla, S. Eidelman, B. K.

Feebly-Interacting Particles:FIPs 2020 Workshop Report
With the establishment and maturation of the experimental programs searching
for new physics with sizeable couplings at the LHC, there is an increasing
interest in the broader particle and astrophysics community for exploring the
physics of light and feebly-interacting particles as a paradigm complementary
to a New Physics sector at the TeV scale and beyond. FIPs 2020 has been the
first workshop fully dedicated to the physics of feebly-interacting particles
and was held virtually from 31 August to 4 September 2020. The workshop has
gathered together experts from collider, beam dump, fixed target experiments,
as well as from astrophysics, axions/ALPs searches, current/future neutrino
experiments, and dark matter direct detection communities to discuss progress
in experimental searches and underlying theory models for FIPs physics, and to
enhance the cross-fertilisation across different fields. FIPs 2020 has been
complemented by the topical workshop "Physics Beyond Colliders meets theory",
held at CERN from 7 June to 9 June 2020. This document presents the summary of
the talks presented at the workshops and the outcome of the subsequent
discussions held immediately after. It aims to provide a clear picture of this
blooming field and proposes a few recommendations for the next round of
experimental results.Comment: 240 pages, 71 figure
