Closing the Window on Strongly Interacting Dark Matter with IceCube
We use the recent results on dark matter searches of the 22-string IceCube
detector to probe the remaining allowed window for strongly interacting dark
matter in the mass range 10^4<m_X<10^15 GeV. We calculate the expected signal
in the 22-string IceCube detector from the annihilation ofsuch particles
captured in the Sun and compare it to the detected background. As a result, the
remaining allowed region in the mass versus cross sectionparameter space is
ruled out. We also show the expected sensitivity of the complete IceCube
detector with 86 strings.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figures. Uppdated figures 2 and 3 (y-axis normalization

Proceedings of the First Workshop on Exotic Physics with Neutrino Telescopes, EPNT06
The first Workshop on Exotic Physics with Neutrino Telescopes was held in
Uppsala, Sweden, between September 20-22, 2006.
The workshop was based on talks giving an overview of relevant subjects both
from experiments and theorists. The theory talks provided guidelines for
experimental searches, and covered the signatures expected in neutrino
telescopes from different dark matter candidates, micro black holes, models
with extra dimensions, non--standard neutrino oscillation scenarios and new
neutrino interactions. The existing and planned neutrino telescopes presented
their results and perspectives on the mentioned subjects.Comment: 28 contributions, 164 pages. C. de los Heros (editor
Neurociencias, educación y salud mental
The following article presents a series of investigations, reflections, and quotes about neuroscience, education, and psychology. Each area is specialized in some matters but at some point they share territory and mutually benefit one another, and help us to increasingly understand the complex world of learning, the brain, and human behavior. We hope them to be of interest and a promoter of new thoughts.El siguiente artículo presenta una serie de investigaciones, reflexiones y citas sobre las Neurociencias, la Educación y la Psicología. Áreas cada una especializada en ciertas materias, pero que en algún momento se encuentran y comparten territorio, se nutren entre ellas y nos ayudan a entender –cada vez más– el complejo mundo del aprendizaje, el cerebro y el comportamiento humano. Esperamos que sea de interés y dé impulso a nuevas reflexiones
El cine como herramienta docente en psicología
En la labor docente organizamos de tanto en cuanto, ciclos de cine-fórum;
un pretexto para prolongar las clases y propiciar el debate psicológico-social,
para agudizar la observación, fomentar la escucha atenta, la capacidad de
análisis, de paso repasar las teorías vistas en clase y, posteriormente, el sano
hábito de la conversación. Un darnos tiempo para ver una buena película y
reflexionar al respecto, nada tan humano como la reflexión, además de sentir,
sea alegría, cólera, vergüenza, temor, todas aquellas emociones que una
película (como una buena novela, un cuento, una canción o una fotografía)
nos puede generar
Status of direct and indirect dark matter searches
I review the current status of dark matter searches using direct, indirect
and accelerator techniques. A detailed review of individual experiments is
beyond the scope of these proceedings. I focus instead on the challenges
(sometimes limitations) faced by each of the approaches, which is what make
them complementary, and the reason we must ensure that they are developed
concurrently.Comment: Proceedings of European Physical Society Conference on High Energy
