Control químico de malezas en cítricos

Se evaluó la efectividad y residualidad de algunos herbicidas en cultivos de cítricos en el sur del Departamento del Atlántico. Se empleó un diseño de bloques al azar con 3 replicaciones, empleando parcelas de 4 x 4 m. Para la evaluación de la fitotoxicidad al cultivo y residualidad de los productos, se tomaron datos quincenales del porcentaje de área cubierta de gramíneas como de malezas de hoja ancha, durante 330 días, habiéndose realizado 18 observaciones. Las parcelas fueron inicialmente desenmalezadas y limpiadas. Los tratamientos más promisorios por su buen control y residualidad larga para el control de malezas en cítricos, fueron los siguientes: Diuron (4 kg/ha), Terbacil (2 kg/ha), Atrazina (2 kg/ha) más Diuron (2 kg/ha), Atrazina (4 kg/ha) y Atrazina (2 kg/ha) más CP 50144 (2 kg/ha). Para el control de malezas de hoja ancha se recomienda aplicar: Amitrol T (4 kg/ha) y 2,4-D (2 kg/ha). Para controlar gramíneas: Pyriclor (1 kg/ha) y Dalapón (6 kg/ha). Se señala que el uso de Amitrol T, Paraquat, Dalapon, Pyriclor y 2,4-D requieren protección al follaje durante las aplicacione

Structural And Magnetic Study Of Labacocu O5+δ

The structure and magnetic properties of the compound LaBaCuCo O5+δ have been studied for the non-stoichiometric oxygen concentration δ≈0.6. The structure is pseudo-cubic with a tripled perovskite unit cell. The crystal structure was determined by a combined Rietveld fit to neutron and synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction data in the orthorhombic Pmmm space group, with cell parameters a=3.9223 (3) Å, b=3.9360 (3) Å, c=11.7073 (8) Å, and V=180.74 (2) Å3 (room temperature). Antiferromagnetic ordering of Cu and Co magnetic moments is observed below 205 (4) K. The magnetic structure with cell aM =2a, bM =2b, and cM =2c, could be described with the Shubnikov space group Fmm m′. The magnetic moments of both equivalent Cu/Co sites were determined at 50 and 170 K to be 0.83 (3) μB and 0.58 (3) μB, respectively, consistent with one unpaired electron per atom. The fit of the intensities to a simple mean field magnetic model appeared to be insufficient to account for the variation of moments at temperatures close to TN while a three dimensional Heisenberg model could improve the fit. Susceptibility measurements between 4 and 350 K also show irreversibility below 150 K. The local environments of Cu and Co were studied by extended x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy at both absorption edges. Cu atoms adopt an elongated octahedral or square-based pyramidal oxygen environment which suggests mainly the presence of Cu(II) in the structure. Co adopts different local environments, depending on the electronic and spin states. © 2005 The American Physical Society.7114Er-Rakho, L., Michel, C., Lacorre, P., Raveau, B., (1988) J.

Dynamic Vortex Phases and Pinning in Superconductors with Twin Boundaries

We investigate the pinning and driven dynamics of vortices interacting with twin boundaries using large scale molecular dynamics simulations on samples with near one million pinning sites. For low applied driving forces, the vortex lattice orients itself parallel to the twin boundary and we observe the creation of a flux gradient and vortex free region near the edges of the twin boundary. For increasing drive, we find evidence for several distinct dynamical flow phases which we characterize by the density of defects in the vortex lattice, the microscopic vortex flow patterns, and orientation of the vortex lattice. We show that these different dynamical phases can be directly related to microscopically measurable voltage - current V(I) curves and voltage noise. By conducting a series of simulations for various twin boundary parameters we derive several vortex dynamic phase diagrams.Comment: 5 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev.

Synthesis of 2H-benzotriazole based donor-acceptor polymers bearing carbazole derivative as pendant groups: Optical, electronical and photovoltaic properties

 Four 2H-benzotriazole based D-A polymers bearing carbazole derivative as pendant groups and fluorene or thiophene as donor units (P1-P4) were designed and synthesized. These polymers combine good thermal stability and excellent solubility in common organic solvents. Spectroscopic measurements carried out for P1, P2 and P3 indicate that polymer backbone induces effective the quenching of the 3,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)-9H-carbazole (CT) fluorescence, implying an intramolecular Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) process. Preliminary investigations on the photovoltaic multiheterojunction devices based on P1-P4 showed power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of up to 1.7 % for P1 and P2 and close to 2.0 % for P3. This means that the polymer/π-conjugated pendant units structure is a promising alternative to improve the performance of organic solar cells

The ArcAB two-component regulatory system promotes resistance to reactive oxygen species and systemic infection by Salmonella Typhimurium

Typhimurium) is an intracellular bacterium that overcomes host immune system barriers for successful infection. The bacterium colonizes the proximal small intestine, penetrates the epithelial layer, and is engulfed by macrophages and neutrophils. Intracellularly, S. Typhimurium encounters highly toxic reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorous acid. The molecular mechanisms of Salmonella resistance to intracellular oxidative stress is not completely understood. The ArcAB two-component system is a global regulatory system that responds to oxygen. In this work, we show that the ArcA response regulator participates in Salmonella adaptation to changing oxygen levels and is also involved in promoting intracellular survival in macrophages and neutrophils, enabling S. Typhimurium to successfully establish a systemic infection. © 2018 Pardo-Esté et al.

Search for a W' boson decaying to a bottom quark and a top quark in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

Results are presented from a search for a W' boson using a dataset corresponding to 5.0 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected during 2011 by the CMS experiment at the LHC in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV. The W' boson is modeled as a heavy W boson, but different scenarios for the couplings to fermions are considered, involving both left-handed and right-handed chiral projections of the fermions, as well as an arbitrary mixture of the two. The search is performed in the decay channel W' to t b, leading to a final state signature with a single lepton (e, mu), missing transverse energy, and jets, at least one of which is tagged as a b-jet. A W' boson that couples to fermions with the same coupling constant as the W, but to the right-handed rather than left-handed chiral projections, is excluded for masses below 1.85 TeV at the 95% confidence level. For the first time using LHC data, constraints on the W' gauge coupling for a set of left- and right-handed coupling combinations have been placed. These results represent a significant improvement over previously published limits.Comment: Submitted to Physics Letters B. Replaced with version publishe

Search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying into two photons in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV

A search for a Higgs boson decaying into two photons is described. The analysis is performed using a dataset recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC from pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 4.8 inverse femtobarns. Limits are set on the cross section of the standard model Higgs boson decaying to two photons. The expected exclusion limit at 95% confidence level is between 1.4 and 2.4 times the standard model cross section in the mass range between 110 and 150 GeV. The analysis of the data excludes, at 95% confidence level, the standard model Higgs boson decaying into two photons in the mass range 128 to 132 GeV. The largest excess of events above the expected standard model background is observed for a Higgs boson mass hypothesis of 124 GeV with a local significance of 3.1 sigma. The global significance of observing an excess with a local significance greater than 3.1 sigma anywhere in the search range 110-150 GeV is estimated to be 1.8 sigma. More data are required to ascertain the origin of this excess.Comment: Submitted to Physics Letters

Measurement of the Lambda(b) cross section and the anti-Lambda(b) to Lambda(b) ratio with Lambda(b) to J/Psi Lambda decays in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

The Lambda(b) differential production cross section and the cross section ratio anti-Lambda(b)/Lambda(b) are measured as functions of transverse momentum pt(Lambda(b)) and rapidity abs(y(Lambda(b))) in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The measurements are based on Lambda(b) decays reconstructed in the exclusive final state J/Psi Lambda, with the subsequent decays J/Psi to an opposite-sign muon pair and Lambda to proton pion, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.9 inverse femtobarns. The product of the cross section times the branching ratio for Lambda(b) to J/Psi Lambda versus pt(Lambda(b)) falls faster than that of b mesons. The measured value of the cross section times the branching ratio for pt(Lambda(b)) > 10 GeV and abs(y(Lambda(b))) < 2.0 is 1.06 +/- 0.06 +/- 0.12 nb, and the integrated cross section ratio for anti-Lambda(b)/Lambda(b) is 1.02 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.09, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.Comment: Submitted to Physics Letters

Search for new physics in events with opposite-sign leptons, jets, and missing transverse energy in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

A search is presented for physics beyond the standard model (BSM) in final states with a pair of opposite-sign isolated leptons accompanied by jets and missing transverse energy. The search uses LHC data recorded at a center-of-mass energy sqrt(s) = 7 TeV with the CMS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 5 inverse femtobarns. Two complementary search strategies are employed. The first probes models with a specific dilepton production mechanism that leads to a characteristic kinematic edge in the dilepton mass distribution. The second strategy probes models of dilepton production with heavy, colored objects that decay to final states including invisible particles, leading to very large hadronic activity and missing transverse energy. No evidence for an event yield in excess of the standard model expectations is found. Upper limits on the BSM contributions to the signal regions are deduced from the results, which are used to exclude a region of the parameter space of the constrained minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. Additional information related to detector efficiencies and response is provided to allow testing specific models of BSM physics not considered in this paper.Comment: Replaced with published version.
