Determination of the scattering length for Rb-Cs X ground electronic state using a variational method
We performed the calculation of the scattering length for the elastic
collision between the rubidium and cesium atoms. For this we applied a
variational procedure based on the R-matrix theory for unbound states employing
the finite element method (FEM) for expansion of the wave-function in terms of
a finite set of local basis functions. The FEM presents as advantages the
possibility of the development of a efficient matrix inversion algorithm which
significantly reduces the computation time to calculate the R matrix. We also
tested a potential energy curve with spectroscopic accuracy obtained before
from a direct adjustment procedure of experimental data of the
state based on genetic algorithm. The quality of our result
was evaluated by comparing them with several ones previously published at
literature.Comment: 15 pages, 6 tables and 2 figure
^1S_0 pairing correlations in relativistic nuclear matter and the two-nucleon virtual state
We use the Gorkov formulation of the Dirac-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov
approximation to nuclear pairing to study the ^1S_0 nucleon-nucleon
correlations in nuclear matter. We find the short-range correlations of the
^1S_0 pairing fields to be almost identical to those of the two-nucleon virtual
state. We obtain mutually consistent results for the pairing fields, using
several different sets of effective interaction parameters, when we demand that
each of these sets places the virtual-state pole at its physical location.Comment: 11 pages, 9 PostScript figures, RevTex, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Measuring The Co2 Flux At The Air/water Interface In Lakes Using Flow Injection Analysis.
The carbon dioxide flux at the air/water interface in lakes was calculated after the determination of H2CO3* (free CO2) and atmospheric CO2 using flow injection analysis (FIA) coupled to a conductometric detector. The method is based on the diffusion of CO2 through a hydrophobic membrane into a flow of deionized water, generating a gradient of conductivity proportional to the concentration of CO2 in the sample. Using one experimental set-up, the speciation of the inorganic carbon (H2CO3* and dissolved inorganic carbon) was accomplished by simply adjusting the sample pH. The determination of CO2 in the atmosphere was carried out by direct injection of the gaseous samples. The FIA apparatus was taken into the field and CO2 fluxes were evaluated in several Brazilian lakes. In these lakes, representing different eutrophic stages, the CO2 flux varied from -242 (invasive) up to 3227 (evasive) mumol CO2 m-2 h-1.3317-2

Nematodes in horticulture: an overview.
Herein, we integrated information about the damage and losses caused by these pathogens in horticulture. Resistant genotypes seem to be the best alternative and, due to wide horticulture aspect, the focus is especially for life sustaining horticultural, such as banana, cassava, potato, and sugar beet. In addition, it was also provided evidence regarding how studies have been conducted on new strategies for resistance and control, such as the elucidation of effector?s functions. Nematode effectors studies, focus on the development of new resistant plant genotypes, is an auspicious strategy against this parasites
