A síntese imperfeita: articulação entre política externa e política de defesa na era Cardoso

Esse artigo tem por objetivo gerar hipóteses sobre a articulação entre política externa e política de defesa na gestão Cardoso. Partiu-se de estudo de caso sobre a formulação da Política de Defesa Nacional (PDN) e as conseqüências dessa para a institucionalização do Ministério da Defesa (MD). Constatou-se a baixa prioridade atribuída pela diplomacia ao poder militar como ferramenta de política externa. Finalmente, explicitou-se a inexistência de mecanismos efetivos de articulação.<br>This article has the objective of producing hypotheses on the articulation between foreign and defense policies during President's Cardoso administration. Initially, a case study on the formulation of the National Defense Policy Document (PDN) and its consequences to the institutionalization of the Defense Ministry (MD) was conducted. The low priority Brazilian diplomacy attributes to military power as a foreign policy tool was established. Finally, the lack of effective articulation mechanisms between foreign and defense policies was stressed

Performance of the ALICE Electromagnetic Calorimeter

International audienceThe performance of the electromagnetic calorimeter of theALICE experiment during operation in 2010–2018 at the Large HadronCollider is presented. After a short introduction into the design,readout, and trigger capabilities of the detector, the proceduresfor data taking, reconstruction, and validation are explained. Themethods used for the calibration and various derived corrections arepresented in detail. Subsequently, the capabilities of thecalorimeter to reconstruct and measure photons, light mesons,electrons and jets are discussed. The performance of thecalorimeter is illustrated mainly with data obtained with test beamsat the Proton Synchrotron and Super Proton Synchrotron or inproton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV, and compared tosimulations
