Electromagnon excitations in modulated multiferroics
The phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity in spiral magnets presented
in [M. Mostovoy, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 067601 (2006)] is generalized to describe
consistently states with both uniform and modulated-in-space ferroelectric
polarizations. A key point in this description is the symmetric part of the
magnetoelectric coupling since, although being irrelevant for the uniform
component, it plays an essential role for the non-uniform part of the
polarization. We illustrate this importance in generic examples of modulated
magnetic systems: longitudinal and transverse spin-density wave states and
planar cycloidal phase. We show that even in the cases with no uniform
ferroelectricity induced, polarization correlation functions follow to the soft
magnetic behavior of the system due to the magnetoelectric effect. Our results
can be easily generalized for more complicated types of magnetic ordering, and
the applications may concern various natural and artificial systems in
condensed matter physics (e.g., magnon properties could be extracted from
dynamic dielectric response measurements).Comment: 5 page
Detección de puntos calientes para la predicción de averÃas en las zonas de estudio I y II de la CNEL – EP, UNIDAD DE NEGOCIOS MANABI
Abstract: This paper deals with the detection of PC that is presented in the lines of M / T nearshore for which the study is conducted in San Clemente and Crucita to 13.8 Kv feeders, which is determined as area I study, this study describes how to detect the existence of PC in the different elements of the structures forming the said power lines (zona study I). And in this other area are in populated areas and abundant pollution for which the study is conducted in the feeders 3 (Portoviejo Centro) and 4 (Shopping-. Cdla Los Tamarindos) to 13.8 KV, which is determined as an area of study II. This study describes how to detect the existence of P.C in the different elements of the structures forming the said power lines.
Once the current state of the lines is described, it proceeds to determine the possible presence of P.C in each of the elements of the structures. In addition, statistical analysis will determine the items that need maintenance either preventive, predictive or corrective measures in order to implement measures that help to maintain proper lines M / T, and to provide better quality of electric service, and not have to regret lost electric power by joule effects shots in lines due to PC.

SDSS IV MaNGA: Dependence of Global and Spatially Resolved SFR-M ∗ Relations on Galaxy Properties
Indexación: Scopus.The galaxy integrated Hα star formation rate-stellar mass relation, or SFR(global)-M ∗(global) relation, is crucial for understanding star formation history and evolution of galaxies. However, many studies have dealt with SFR using unresolved measurements, which makes it difficult to separate out the contamination from other ionizing sources, such as active galactic nuclei and evolved stars. Using the integral field spectroscopic observations from SDSS-IV MaNGA, we spatially disentangle the contribution from different Hα powering sources for ∼1000 galaxies. We find that, when including regions dominated by all ionizing sources in galaxies, the spatially resolved relation between Hα surface density (ΣHα(all)) and stellar mass surface density (Σ∗(all)) progressively turns over at the high Σ∗(all) end for increasing M ∗(global) and/or bulge dominance (bulge-to-total light ratio, B/T). This in turn leads to the flattening of the integrated Hα(global)-M ∗(global) relation in the literature. By contrast, there is no noticeable flattening in both integrated Hα(H ii)-M ∗(H ii) and spatially resolved ΣHα(H ii)-Σ∗(H ii) relations when only regions where star formation dominates the ionization are considered. In other words, the flattening can be attributed to the increasing regions powered by non-star-formation sources, which generally have lower ionizing ability than star formation. An analysis of the fractional contribution of non-star-formation sources to total Hα luminosity of a galaxy suggests a decreasing role of star formation as an ionizing source toward high-mass, high-B/T galaxies and bulge regions. This result indicates that the appearance of the galaxy integrated SFR-M ∗ relation critically depends on their global properties (M ∗(global) and B/T) and relative abundances of various ionizing sources within the galaxies.http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/aaa9bc/met
Nonreciprocal Directional Dichroism and Toroidalmagnons in Helical Magnets
We investigate a dynamical magnetoelectric effect due to a magnetic resonance
in helical spin structures through the coupling between magnetization and
electric polarization via a spin current mechanism. We show that the magnon has
both the dynamical magnetic moment and the electric moment
(), i.e., a dynamical toroidal moment,
under external magnetic fields, and thus it is named the {\em toroidalmagnon}.
The toroidalmagnon exists in most conical spin structures owing to the
generality of the spin current mechanism. In the absorption of electromagnetic
waves, the toroidalmagnon excitation process generally induces a nonreciprocal
directional dichroism as a consequence of an interference of the magnetic and
electric responses.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure
Real-Time DSP-Free 100Gbit/s/λ PAM-4 Fiber Access Link using EML and Direct Detection
A 100 Gbit/s/ λ PAM-4 fiber link with an optical budget of 30 dB and 20 km fiber reach is achieved in real time experiments. This is compliant with class A (20 dB) point to point (PtP) applications as mobile fronthaul for example, and with class N1 (29 dB) point to multipoint (PtMP) for residential market. We used an integrated externally modulated laser, an analog pre-equalizer, an optical booster amplifier and/or non-filtered preamplifier and direct detection without any digital signal processing (whether real-time or offline)
Clinical practice of language fMRI in epilepsy centers: a European survey and conclusions by the ESNR Epilepsy Working Group
Purpose: To assess current clinical practices throughout Europe with respect to acquisition, implementation, evaluation, and interpretation of language functional MRI (fMRI) in epilepsy patients. Methods: An online survey was emailed to all European Society of Neuroradiology members (n = 1662), known associates (n = 6400), and 64 members of European Epilepsy network. The questionnaire featured 40 individual items on demographic data, clinical practice and indications, fMRI paradigms, radiological workflow, data post-processing protocol, and reporting. Results: A total of 49 non-duplicate entries from European centers were received from 20 countries. Of these, 73.5% were board-certified neuroradiologists and 69.4% had an in-house epilepsy surgery program. Seventy-one percent of centers performed fewer than five scans per month for epilepsy. The most frequently used paradigms were phonemic verbal fluency (47.7%) and audi
Using XDAQ in Application Scenarios of the CMS Experiment
XDAQ is a generic data acquisition software environment that emerged from a
rich set of of use-cases encountered in the CMS experiment. They cover not the
deployment for multiple sub-detectors and the operation of different processing
and networking equipment as well as a distributed collaboration of users with
different needs. The use of the software in various application scenarios
demonstrated the viability of the approach. We discuss two applications, the
tracker local DAQ system for front-end commissioning and the muon chamber
validation system. The description is completed by a brief overview of XDAQ.Comment: Conference CHEP 2003 (Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics,
