Azimuthal energy flow in deep inelastic neutrino scattering
Gluon emission and the transverse momentum (p/sub t/) of partons confined in nucleons were studied using deep-inelastic charged-current neutrino-nucleon interactions. For this analysis we use the flow of hadronic energy in the azimuthal direction around the momentum transfer referenced from the neutrino-muon scattering plane. A five standard deviation asymmetry was found. Analysis of this asymmetry indicates a (p/sub t/) of 0.35 +- 0.12 GeV/c if QCD corrections are included, and 0.56 +- 0.05 GeV/c if they are excluded. Some evidence was also observed for x dependence in p/sub t/. Data were taken at Fermilab in 1982 using a 200 ton (fiducial mass) fine grained calorimeter and a dichromatic neutrino beam
Critério técnico para determinação da idade ótima de mudas de eucalipto para plantio Technical criterion for the determination of the optimum age of eucalypt cuttings for planting
Atualmente, a produção de mudas de Eucalyptus, em larga escala, é realizada pela miniestaquia, sob condições controladas. Todavia, ainda hoje não existe um critério técnico para determinar a idade ótima das mudas para plantio, o que pode refletir negativamente sobre a qualidade, sobretudo do sistema radicular, e, conseqüentemente, grandes perdas podem ocorrer no campo. Assim, o presente trabalho estabeleceu um critério técnico com base nas curvas de velocidade de crescimento e no intercepto entre as curvas de incremento corrente diário e incremento médio diário das variáveis altura, biomassa radicular e da parte aérea. Em virtude da restrição de volume explorável pelo sistema radicular, constataram-se reduções significativas na velocidade de crescimento das mudas que devem ser plantadas, preferencialmente, com 80 (clone A) a 100 (clone B) dias de idade, uma vez que mudas mais velhas sofrem redução na velocidade de crescimento e tendem a desenvolver problemas de malformação radicular. As implicações da baixa qualidade do sistema radicular residem na mortalidade de plantas, principalmente em períodos menos favoráveis, e na conseqüente influência na operação de replantio, bem como na realização dos testes clonais e na maior suscetibilidade das plantas aos estresses do ambiente.<br>Presently, mass vegetative propagation of Eucalyptus is carried out by mini-cuttings, under controlled conditions. Despite the advances of this technique, there is no criterion to determine the optimum age of the cuttings for planting, which can reflect negatively on the quality, mainly on the root system, and consequently losses may occur in the field. Hence, in the present work was established a technical criteria based on the growth speed curves and intercrossing of daily current increasing curves and daily average increasing for the variables height, root, stem and shoot biomass. Due to the restriction of exploitable volume by the root system, significant reductions in the growth speed of cuttings were found, and they must be planted preferentially from 80 (clone A) to 100 (Clone B) days of age, once older cuttings undergo a reduction in the growth speed and tend to develop root malformation problems. The implications of the low quality of the root system are the mortality of plants in the field, mainly in less favorable periods, and the consequent influence on the replanting operation, as well as on the clonal tests and a greater susceptibility of plants to environment stresses
