Data management projects that result in a lot of errors in the calculation of the value of ongoing projects, the needs of the necessary materials and material expenditures, doubling the data (redundancy data) because often repeated each time recording a procurement process or the preparation of the report either daily / monthly. The absence of good data base management hinder the process of delivering information to the leader and partner. The purpose of this final project is to build a system that is able to improve materials procurement services to partners, may determine material requirements and support management activities.
The stages of the development of systems that use the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with stages of system analysis, system design, system implementation and system maintenance. The results of this system is a system that is capable of handling data collection materials, data collection partner, material procurement transactions, project transactions, transaction expenses and manufacturing materials materials procurement reports
Massive stars reveal variations of the stellar initial mass function in the Milky Way stellar clusters
We investigate whether the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is universal,
or whether it varies significantly among young stellar clusters in the Milky
Way. We propose a method to uncover the range of variation of the parameters
that describe the shape of the IMF for the population of young Galactic
clusters. These parameters are the slopes in the low and high stellar mass
regimes, and , respectively, and the characteristic mass,
. The method relies exclusively on the high mass content of the
clusters, but is able to yield information on the distributions of parameters
that describe the IMF over the entire stellar mass range. This is achieved by
comparing the fractions of single and lonely massive O stars in a recent
catalog of the Milky Way clusters with a library of simulated clusters built
with various distribution functions of the IMF parameters. The synthetic
clusters are corrected for the effects of the binary population, stellar
evolution, sample incompleteness, and ejected O stars. Our findings indicate
that broad distributions of the IMF parameters are required in order to
reproduce the fractions of single and lonely O stars in Galactic clusters. They
also do not lend support to the existence of a cluster mass-maximum stellar
mass relation. We propose a probabilistic formulation of the IMF whereby the
parameters of the IMF are described by Gaussian distribution functions centered
around , , and M, and with
dispersions of , , and
M around these values.Comment: Accepted to MNRAS, 17 pages, 13 figures. Larger observational sample.

The inner wind of IRC+10216 revisited: New exotic chemistry and diagnostic for dust condensation in carbon stars
Aims. We model the chemistry of the inner wind of the carbon star IRC+10216
and consider the effect of periodic shocks induced by the stellar pulsation on
the gas to follow the non-equilibrium chemistry in the shocked gas layers. We
consider a very complete set of chemical families, including hydrocarbons and
aromatics, hydrides, halogens and phosphorous-bearing species. Derived
abundances are compared to the latest observational data from large surveys and
Herschel. Results. The shocks induce a non-equilibrium chemistry in the dust
formation zone of IRC+10216 where the collision destruction of CO in the
post-shock gas triggers the formation of O-bearing species (H2O, SiO). Most of
the modelled abundances agree very well with the latest values derived from
Herschel data on IRC+10216. Hydrides form a family of abundant species that are
expelled into the intermediate envelope. In particular, HF traps all the atomic
fluorine in the dust formation zone. Halogens are also abundant and their
chemistry is independent of the C/O ratio of the star. Therefore, HCl and other
Cl-bearing species should also be present in the inner wind of O-rich AGB or
supergiant stars. We identify a specific region ranging from 2.5 R* to 4 R*,
where polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons form and grow. The estimated carbon
dust-to-gas mass ratio derived from the mass of aromatics ranges from 1.2 x
10^(-3) to 5.8 x 10^{-3} and agrees well with existing observational values.
The aromatic formation region is located outside hot layers where SiC2 is
produced as a bi-product of silicon carbide dust synthesis. Finally, we predict
that some molecular lines will show flux variation with pulsation phase and
time (e.g., H2O) while other species will not (e.g., CO). These variations
merely reflect the non-equilibrium chemistry that destroys and reforms
molecules over a pulsation period in the shocked gas of the dust formation
zone.Comment: 15 pages, 10 figures. Accepted for publication in Astronomy &

Mid-Infrared Imaging and Modelling of the Dust Shell around Post-AGB star HD 187885 (IRAS 19500-1709)
We present 10 and 20 micron images of IRAS 19500-1709 taken with the
mid-infrared camera, OSCIR, mounted on the Gemini North Telescope. We use a 2-D
dust radiation transport code to fit the spectral energy distribution from UV
to sub-mm wavelengths and to simulate the images.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures. To appear in "Asymmetric Planetary Nebulae III",

A representative sample of Be stars III: H band spectroscopy
We present H band (1.53 - 1.69 micron) spectra of 57 isolated Be stars of
spectral types O9-B9 and luminosity classes III,IV & V. The HI Brackett (n-4)
series is seen in emission from Br 11-18, and FeII emission is also apparent
for a subset of those stars with HI emission. No emission from species with a
higher excitation temperature, such as He II or CIII is seen, and no forbidden
line emission is present. A subset of 12 stars show no evidence for emission
from any species; these stars appear indistinguishable from normal B stars of a
comparable spectral type. In general the line ratios constructed from the
transitions in the range Br 11-18 do not fit case B recombination theory
particularly well. Strong correlations between the line ratios with Br-gamma
and spectral type are found. These results most likely represent systematic
variations in the temperature and ionization of the circumstellar disc with
spectral type. Weak correlations between the line widths and projected
rotational velocity of the stars are observed; however no systematic trend for
increasing line width through the Brackett series is observed.Comment: accepted for publication in A&A (this version correctly formatted
Simultaneously modelling far-infrared dust emission and its relation to CO emission in star forming galaxies
We present a method to simultaneously model the dust far-infrared spectral
energy distribution (SED) and the total infrared carbon monoxide (CO)
integrated intensity relationship. The modelling
employs a hierarchical Bayesian (HB) technique to estimate the dust surface
density, temperature (), and spectral index at each pixel from the
observed far-infrared (FIR) maps. Additionally, given the corresponding CO map,
the method simultaneously estimates the slope and intercept between the FIR and
CO intensities, which are global properties of the observed source. The model
accounts for correlated and uncorrelated uncertainties, such as those present
in Herschel observations. Using synthetic datasets, we demonstrate the accuracy
of the HB method, and contrast the results with common non-hierarchical fitting
methods. As an initial application, we model the dust and gas on 100 pc scales
in the Magellanic Clouds from Herschel FIR and NANTEN CO observations. The
slopes of the relationship are similar in
both galaxies, falling in the range 1.11.7. However, in the SMC the
intercept is nearly 3 times higher, which can be explained by its lower
metallicity than the LMC, resulting in a larger per unit . The HB modelling evidences an increase in in regions with
the highest in the LMC. This may be due to enhanced dust heating
in the densest molecular regions from young stars. Such simultaneous dust and
gas modelling may reveal variations in the properties of the ISM and its
association with other galactic characteristics, such as star formation rates
and/or metallicities.Comment: 17 pages, 14 figures, Updated to match MNRAS accepted versio
Condensation of MgS in outflows from carbon stars
The basic mechanism responsible for the widespread condensation of MgS in the
outflows from carbon rich stars on the tip of the AGB is discussed with the aim
of developing a condensation model that can be applied in model calculations of
dust formation in stellar winds.
The different possibilities how MgS may be formed in the chemical environment
of outflows from carbon stars are explored by some thermochemical calculations
and by a detailed analysis of the growth kinetics of grains in stellar winds.
The optical properties of core-mantle grains with a MgS mantle are calculated
to demonstrate that such grains reproduce the structure of the observed 30
m feature. These considerations are complemented by model calculations of
circumstellar dust shells around carbon stars.
It is argued that MgS is formed via precipitation on silicon carbide grains.
This formation mechanism explains some of the basic observed features of MgS
condensation in dust shells around carbon stars. A weak secondary peak at about
33 ... 36 m is shown to exist in certain cases if MgS forms a coating on
SiC.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Probing the Dust Properties of Galaxies up to Submillimetre Wavelengths I. The Spectral Energy Distribution of dwarf galaxies using LABOCA
We present 870 micron images of four low metallicity galaxies (NGC1705,
Haro11, Mrk1089 and UM311) observed with the Large APEX BOlometer CAmera
(LABOCA). We model their spectral energy distributions combining the submm
observations of LABOCA, 2MASS, IRAS, Spitzer photometric data and the IRS data
for Haro11. We find that a significant mass of dust is revealed when using
submm constraints compared to that measured with only mid-IR to far-IR
observations extending only to 160 microns. For NGC1705 and Haro11, an excess
in submillimeter wavelengths is detected and we rerun our SED procedure adding
a cold dust component (10K) to better describe the high 870 micron flux derived
from LABOCA observations, which significantly improves the fit. We find that at
least 70% of the dust mass of these two galaxies can reside in a cold dust
component. We also show that the subsequent dust-to-gas mass ratios,
considering HI and CO observations, can be strikingly high for Haro11 in
comparison with what is usually expected for these low-metallicity
environments. Furthermore, we derive the SFR of our galaxies and compare them
to the Schmidt law. Haro11 falls anomalously far from the Schmidt relation.
These results may suggest that a reservoir of hidden gas could be present in
molecular form not traced by the current CO observations. We also derive the
total IR luminosities derived from our models and compare them with relations
that derive this luminosity from Spitzer bands. We find that the Draine & Li
(2007) formula compares well to our direct IR determinations.Comment: 22 pages, 7 figures, 10 tables, accepted for publication in A&
