Critical wave-packet dynamics in the power-law bond disordered Anderson Model
We investigate the wave-packet dynamics of the power-law bond disordered
one-dimensional Anderson model with hopping amplitudes decreasing as
. We consider the critical case ().
Using an exact diagonalization scheme on finite chains, we compute the
participation moments of all stationary energy eigenstates as well as the
spreading of an initially localized wave-packet. The eigenstates
multifractality is characterized by the set of fractal dimensions of the
participation moments. The wave-packet shows a diffusive-like spread developing
a power-law tail and achieves a stationary non-uniform profile after reflecting
at the chain boundaries. As a consequence, the time-dependent participation
moments exhibit two distinct scaling regimes. We formulate a finite-size
scaling hypothesis for the participation moments relating their scaling
exponents to the ones governing the return probability and wave-function

The role of the disorder range and electronic energy in the graphene nanoribbons perfect transmission
Numerical calculations based on the recursive Green's functions method in the
tight-binding approximation are performed to calculate the dimensionless
conductance in disordered graphene nanoribbons with Gaussian scatterers.
The influence of the transition from short- to long-ranged disorder on is
studied as well as its effects on the formation of a perfectly conducting
channel. We also investigate the dependence of electronic energy on the
perfectly conducting channel. We propose and calculate a backscattering
estimative in order to establish the connection between the perfectly
conducting channel (with ) and the amount of intervalley scattering.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures. To be published on Phys. Rev.
Magnetic phases evolution in the LaMn1-xFexO3+y system
We have investigated the crystal structure and magnetic properties for
polycrystalline samples of LaMn1-xFexO3+y, in the whole range x=0.0 to x=1.0,
prepared by solid state reaction in air. All samples show the ORT-2
orthorhombic structure that suppresses the Jahn-Teller distortion, thus
favoring a ferromagnetic (FM) superexchange (SE) interaction between
Mn^{3+}-O-Mn^{3+}. For x=0.0 the oxygen excess (y ~ 0.09) produces vacancies in
the La and Mn sites and generates a fraction around 18% of Mn^{4+} ions and 82%
of the usual Mn^{3+} ions, with possible double exchange interaction between
them. The Fe doping in this system is known to produce only stable Fe^{3+}
ions. We find an evolution from a fairly strong FM phase with a Curie
temperature T_{C} ~ 160 K, for x=0.0, to an antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase with
T_{N} = 790 K, for x=1.0, accompanied by clear signatures of a cluster-glass
behavior. For intermediate Fe contents a mixed-phase state occurs, with a
gradual decrease (increase) of the FM (AFM) phase, accompanied by a systematic
transition broadening for 0.2 < x < 0.7. A model based on the expected exchange
interaction among the various magnetic-ion types, accounts very well for the
saturation-magnetization dependence on Fe doping.Comment: 27 pages, 9 figure
Numerical Simulation of Magnetic Interactions in Polycrystalline YFeO3
The magnetic behavior of polycrystalline yttrium orthoferrite was studied
from the experimental and theoretical points of view. Magnetization
measurements up to 170 kOe were carried out on a single-phase YFeO3 sample
synthesized from heterobimetallic alkoxides. The complex interplay between
weak-ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions, observed in the
experimental M(H) curves, was successfully simulated by locally minimizing the
magnetic energy of two interacting Fe sublattices. The resulting values of
exchange field (H_E = 5590 kOe), anisotropy field (H_A = 0.5 kOe) and
Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya antisymmetric field (H_D = 149 kOe) are in good agreement
with previous reports on this system.Comment: 26 pages, 9 figure
On Matrix Superpotential and Three-Component Normal Modes
We consider the supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSY QM) with three-
component normal modes for the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) states. An
explicit form of the SUSY QM matrix superpotential is presented and the
corresponding three-component bosonic zero-mode eigenfunction is investigated.Comment: 17 pages, no figure. Paper accepted for publication in Journal of

Caracterização de substâncias húmicas extraídas de solo tratado com carvão vegetal (biochar).
As Terras Pretas de Índio (TPI) são solos antropogênicos encontrados na Amazônia, que têm alto teor de carbono (C) orgânico, alta fertilidade e alta capacidade de recuperação. Os TPI possuem estas características devido ao caráter pirogênico do C que neles se encontra, e que se manifestam na alta proporção de estruturas aromáticas policondensadas com grupos funcionais carboxílicos originadas das alterações naturais de biomassa carbonizada adicionada ao solo pelas populações indígenas pré-colombianas

Clustering, Angular Size and Dark Energy
The influence of dark matter inhomogeneities on the angular size-redshift
test is investigated for a large class of flat cosmological models driven by
dark energy plus a cold dark matter component (XCDM model). The results are
presented in two steps. First, the mass inhomogeneities are modeled by a
generalized Zeldovich-Kantowski-Dyer-Roeder (ZKDR) distance which is
characterized by a smoothness parameter and a power index ,
and, second, we provide a statistical analysis to angular size data for a large
sample of milliarcsecond compact radio sources. As a general result, we have
found that the parameter is totally unconstrained by this sample of
angular diameter data.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, accepted in Physical Review
