    O cooperativismo é um modelo econômico com características próprias, baseado em princípios definidos pela Aliança Cooperativa Internacional - ACI. Está presente no Brasil desde o final do século XIX, contemplando hoje seus diferentes ramos, e em todos os Estados brasileiros e Distrito Federal. Na região centro oeste do país, temos hoje 575 cooperativas ativas, sendo 178 do ramo agropecuário, em Mato Grosso do Sul das 71 cooperativas, 26 são deste ramo. O desenvolvimento de forma sustentável é um desafio para as instituições e governos, assim, devido a sua natureza, o cooperativismo pode ser uma alternativa de promover o crescimento da economia, o desenvolvimento local de maneira sustentável? O que percebemos é que o crescente número de negócios de natureza cooperativa que vêm se firmando no país pode ser um sinal de que o caminho para alcançar tal desenvolvimento foi encontrado, uma vez que a maior parte das cooperativas do país já existem a mais de 20 anos, algumas mais de 40 demonstrando a solidez e sustentabilidade do negócio. Também evidenciando que ainda há espaço para crescimento.Anais do VI EIGEDIN

    Low-dimensional Bose gases

    Full text link
    We present an improved many-body T-matrix theory for partially Bose-Einstein condensed atomic gases by treating the phase fluctuations exactly. The resulting mean-field theory is valid in arbitrary dimensions and able to describe the low-temperature crossover between three, two and one-dimensional Bose gases. When applied to a degenerate two-dimensional atomic hydrogen gas, we obtain a reduction of the three-body recombination rate which compares favorably with experiment. Supplementing the mean-field theory with a renormalization-group approach to treat the critical fluctuations, we also incorporate into the theory the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition that occurs in a homogeneous Bose gas in two dimensions. In particular, we calculate the critical conditions for the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition as a function of the microscopic parameters of the theory. The proposed theory is further applied to a trapped one-dimensional Bose gas, where we find good agreement with exact numerical results obtained by solving a nonlinear Langevin field equation.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figures, revte

    Extension of Bogoliubov theory to quasi-condensates

    Full text link
    We present an extension of the well-known Bogoliubov theory to treat low dimensional degenerate Bose gases in the limit of weak interactions and low density fluctuations. We use a density-phase representation and show that a precise definition of the phase operator requires a space discretisation in cells of size ll. We perform a systematic expansion of the Hamiltonian in terms of two small parameters, the relative density fluctuations inside a cell and the phase change over a cell. The resulting macroscopic observables can be computed in one, two and three dimensions with no ultraviolet or infrared divergence. Furthermore this approach exactly matches Bogoliubov's approach when there is a true condensate. We give the resulting expressions for the equation of state of the gas, the ground state energy, the first order and second order correlations functions of the field. Explicit calculations are done for homogeneous systems.Comment: 32 pages, 2 figures; typos corrected in revised versio

    O uso dos chamados remineralizadores de solo, "pó de rocha" (rochagem / ?rocks-for-crops?), é uma técnica que vem se expandindo com o passar dos anos. O trabalho visa observar o comportamento das culturas anuais de soja e milho durante três safras consecutivas, utilizando pó de rocha (remineralizador), como fonte principal da adubação verificando viabilidade econômica e técnica de uso da técnica. O projeto está sendo conduzido na Fazenda Campanário município de Itaquiraí, estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil, a partir da safra de soja 2018/2019. São três tratamentos sendo T1, utilizando adubo químico solúvel na base de plantio, T2 e T3 utilizando 12 e 6 toneladas de pó de rocha de origem basáltica respectivamente, 30 dias após o plantio. O acompanhamento da área para tomada dos dados e observações é semanal, com visitas in loco, tendo maior frequência a partir do período de implantação da cultura até sua colheita. Foram coletadas informações como: datas de plantio, emergência e colheita da cultura Tipos de manejos efetuados para o controle das pragas, doenças e plantas invasoras. A coleta do solo para análise é realizada depois da retirada de cada cultura. Análises foliares são realizadas durante o desenvolvimento da cultura.EIGEDIN 2019

    Atom laser coherence and its control via feedback

    Full text link
    We present a quantum-mechanical treatment of the coherence properties of a single-mode atom laser. Specifically, we focus on the quantum phase noise of the atomic field as expressed by the first-order coherence function, for which we derive analytical expressions in various regimes. The decay of this function is characterized by the coherence time, or its reciprocal, the linewidth. A crucial contributor to the linewidth is the collisional interaction of the atoms. We find four distinct regimes for the linewidth with increasing interaction strength. These range from the standard laser linewidth, through quadratic and linear regimes, to another constant regime due to quantum revivals of the coherence function. The laser output is only coherent (Bose degenerate) up to the linear regime. However, we show that application of a quantum nondemolition measurement and feedback scheme will increase, by many orders of magnitude, the range of interaction strengths for which it remains coherent.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, revtex

    Breakdown of superfluidity of an atom laser past an obstacle

    Full text link
    The 1D flow of a continuous beam of Bose-Einstein condensed atoms in the presence of an obstacle is studied as a function of the beam velocity and of the type of perturbing potential (representing the interaction of the obstacle with the atoms of the beam). We identify the relevant regimes: stationary/time-dependent and superfluid/dissipative; the absence of drag is used as a criterion for superfluidity. There exists a critical velocity below which the flow is superfluid. For attractive obstacles, we show that this critical velocity can reach the value predicted by Landau's approach. For penetrable obstacles, it is shown that superfluidity is recovered at large beam velocity. Finally, enormous differences in drag occur when switching from repulsive to attractive potential.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figure

    Finite-temperature correlations in the one-dimensional trapped and untrapped Bose gases

    Full text link
    We calculate the dynamic single-particle and many-particle correlation functions at non-zero temperature in one-dimensional trapped repulsive Bose gases. The decay for increasing distance between the points of these correlation functions is governed by a scaling exponent that has a universal expression in terms of observed quantities. This expression is valid in the weak-interaction Gross-Pitaevskii as well as in the strong-interaction Girardeau-Tonks limit, but the observed quantities involved depend on the interaction strength. The confining trap introduces a weak center-of-mass dependence in the scaling exponent. We also conjecture results for the density-density correlation function.Comment: 18 pages, Latex, Revtex

    Pseudopotential model of ultracold atomic collisions in quasi-one- and two-dimensional traps

    Full text link
    We describe a model for s-wave collisions between ground state atoms in optical lattices, considering especially the limits of quasi-one and two dimensional axisymmetric harmonic confinement. When the atomic interactions are modelled by an s-wave Fermi-pseudopotential, the relative motion energy eigenvalues can easily be obtained. The results show that except for a bound state, the trap eigenvalues are consistent with one- and two- dimensional scattering with renormalized scattering amplitudes. For absolute scattering lengths large compared with the tightest trap width, our model predicts a novel bound state of low energy and nearly-isotropic wavefunction extending on the order of the tightest trap width.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures; submitted to Phys.

    Density correlations and dynamical Casimir emission of Bogoliubov phonons in modulated atomic Bose-Einstein condensates

    Full text link
    We present a theory of the density correlations that appear in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate as a consequence of the dynamical Casimir emission of pairs of Bogoliubov phonons when the atom-atom scattering length is modulated in time. Different regimes as a function of the temporal shape of the modulation are identified and a simple physical picture of the phenomenon is discussed. Analytical expressions for the density correlation function are provided for the most significant limiting cases. This theory is able to explain some unexpected features recently observed in numerical calculations of Hawking radiation from analog black holes

    Dimensional and Temperature Crossover in Trapped Bose Gases

    Full text link
    We investigate the long-range phase coherence of homogeneous and trapped Bose gases as a function of the geometry of the trap, the temperature, and the mean-field interactions in the weakly interacting limit. We explicitly take into account the (quasi)condensate depletion due to quantum and thermal fluctuations, i.e., we include the effects of both phase and density fluctuations. In particular, we determine the phase diagram of the gas by calculating the off-diagonal one-particle density matrix and discuss the various crossovers that occur in this phase diagram and the feasibility of their experimental observation in trapped Bose gases.Comment: One figure added, typos corrected, refernces adde
