Densidades de plantio e cultivares de soja convencionais para a região Sul de MG, safra 2013/14.

Objetivou-se identificar a melhor população de plantas (100.000 a 400.000 plantas ha-1) para 3 cultivares de soja convencional (BRSMG 752S; BRSMG 772S; BRSMG 810C), visando semeadura para região Sul de Minas Gerais. A cv BRSMG 772S apresentou máxima produtividade quando conduzida com 284.000 plantas ha-1, podendo ser cultivada entre 200.000 a 400.000 plantas ha-1. A variação na população de plantas não alterou o rendimento e a maioria dos caracteres agronômicos para as cultivares BRSMG 752S e BRSMG 810C, podendo as mesmas serem utilizadas com ampla faixa de população

Caracterização de duas cultivares de soja RR para cultivo no Sul de Minas Gerais.

Avaliou-se duas cultivares de soja transgênicas RR (BRSMG 780RR e BRSMG 820RR) oriundas do Programa de Melhoramento Genético de Soja para o estado de Minas Gerais, convênio Embrapa/Epamig/Fundação Triângulo, submetidas à quatro populações de plantas (100.000, 200.000, 300.000 e 400.000 plantas ha-1). Utilizou se o delineamento de blocos casualizados com três repetições, determinando-se altura de plantas e de inserção de 1° legume, índice de acamamento, n° de legumes por planta, n° de grãos por legume, peso de 100 grãos e rendimento de grãos. As cultivares BRSMG 780RR e BRSMG 820RR mostraram alta plasticidade à medida que a variação na população de plantas alterou somente os índices de acamamento de plantas. No entanto, recomenda-se estudos por mais de um ano agrícola

Les Houches 2011: Physics at TeV Colliders New Physics Working Group Report

We present the activities of the "New Physics" working group for the "Physics at TeV Colliders" workshop (Les Houches, France, 30 May-17 June, 2011). Our report includes new agreements on formats for interfaces between computational tools, new tool developments, important signatures for searches at the LHC, recommendations for presentation of LHC search results, as well as additional phenomenological studies.Comment: 243 pages, report of the Les Houches 2011 New Physics Group; fix three figure

Measurement of the Strong Coupling Constant from Inclusive Jet Production at the Tevatron pˉp\bar pp Collider

We report a measurement of the strong coupling constant, $\alpha_s(M_Z)$, extracted from inclusive jet production in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$1800 GeV. The QCD prediction for the evolution of $\alpha_s$ with jet transverse energy $E_T$ is tested over the range 40<$E_T$<450 GeV using $E_T$ for the renormalization scale. The data show good agreement with QCD in the region below 250 GeV. In the text we discuss the data-theory comparison in the region from 250 to 450 GeV. The value of $\alpha_s$ at the mass of the $Z^0$ boson averaged over the range 40<$E_T$<250 GeV is found to be $\alpha_s(M_{Z})= 0.1178 \pm 0.0001{(\rm stat)}^{+0.0081}_{-0.0095}{\rm (exp. syst)}$. The associated theoretical uncertainties are mainly due to the choice of renormalization scale (^{+6%}_{-4%}) and input parton distribution functions (5%).Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, using RevTeX.

Measurement of the ttˉproductioncrosssectionint\bar{t} production cross section in p\bar{p}collisionsat collisions at \sqrt{s}$ = 1.8 TeV

We update the measurement of the top production cross section using the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. This measurement uses $t\bar{t}$ decays to the final states $e+\nu$+jets and $\mu+\nu$+jets. We search for $b$ quarks from $t$ decays via secondary-vertex identification or the identification of semileptonic decays of the $b$ and cascade $c$ quarks. The background to the $t\bar{t}$ production is determined primarily through a Monte Carlo simulation. However, we calibrate the simulation and evaluate its uncertainty using several independent data samples. For a top mass of 175 $GeV/c^2$, we measure $\sigma_{t\bar{t}}=5.1 \pm 1.5$ pb and $\sigma_{t\bar{t}}=9.2 \pm 4.3$ pb using the secondary vertex and the lepton tagging algorithms, respectively. Finally, we combine these results with those from other $t\bar{t}$ decay channels and obtain $\sigma_{t\bar{t}} = 6.5^{+1.7}_{-1.4}$ pb.Comment: The manuscript consists of 130 pages, 35 figures and 42 tables in RevTex.
