Unitary chiral dynamics in decays into and the role of the scalar mesons
We make a theoretical study of the \J decays into ,
, and using the techniques of
the chiral unitary approach stressing the important role of the scalar
resonances dynamically generated through the final state interaction of the two
pseudoscalar mesons. We also discuss the importance of new mechanisms with
intermediate exchange of vector and axial-vector mesons and the role played by
the OZI rule in the \J\phi\pi\pi vertex, quantifying its effects. The results
nicely reproduce the experimental data for the invariant mass distributions in
all the channels considered.Comment: Prepared for the 10th International Symposium on Meson-Nucleon

Chiral Dynamics of scalar mesons: radiative decay and in the medium through nuclear photoproduction
In order to assess the relevance of chiral dynamics in the scalar sector we
address two recent problems: radiative decay of the , for which there are
quite recent data from Frascati, and the modification of the
properties in the nuclear medium seen through the photoproduction
in nuclei.Comment: Talk given at the High Energy Physics Workshop "Scalar Mesons: an

Radiative vector meson decay
We study the radiative , and decay into and taking into account mechanisms in which there
are two sequential vector-vector-pseudoscalar or
axial-vector--vector--pseudoscalar steps followed by the coupling of a vector
meson to the photon, considering the final state interaction of the two mesons.
Other mechanisms in which two kaons are produced through the same sequential
mechanisms or from vector meson decay into two kaons which undergo final state
interaction leading to the final pair of pions or , are also
considered. The results of the parameter free theory, together with the
theoretical uncertainties, are compared with the latest experimental results at
Frascati and Novosibirsk.Comment: Prepared for the 10th International Symposium on Meson-Nucleon

Unitary chiral dynamics in J/Psi to VPP decays and the role of scalar mesons
We make a theoretical study of the J/Psi decays into \omega\pi\pi,
\phi\pi\pi, \omega K \bar{K} and \phi K\bar{K} using the techniques of the
chiral unitary approach stressing the important role of the scalar resonances
dynamically generated through the final state interaction of the two
pseudoscalar mesons. We also discuss the importance of new mechanisms with
intermediate exchange of vector and axial-vector mesons and the role played by
the OZI rule in the J/\Psi\phi\pi\pi vertex, quantifying its effects. The
results nicely reproduce the experimental data for the invariant mass
distributions in all the channels considered.Comment: 29 pages, 10 figure
Decay of axial-vector mesons into VP and P
We propose a phenomenological Lagrangian for the decay of the SU(3) nonets of
the axial-vector mesons of into a vector meson and a
pseudoscalar constructed with tensor fields for the vector and axial-vector
mesons. The formulation leads to a good reproduction of the different decay
branching ratios and assuming vector meson dominance (VMD) it also leads to
good results for the radiative decay of the into pion and photon, and in
agreement with the structure proposed in the chiral tensor formulation of
radiative decay of axial-vector mesons. The two SU(3) parameters and the mixing
angle of and needed to give the physical and
resonances are also determined.Comment: 17 pages, 1 figure; version accepted in Phys. Rev.
Sequential vector and axial-vector meson exchange and chiral loops in radiative phi decay
We study the radiative decay into and taking into account mechanisms in which there are two sequential
vector-vector-pseudoscalar or axial-vector--vector--pseudoscalar steps followed
by the coupling of a vector meson to the photon, considering the final state
interaction of the two mesons. There are other mechanisms in which two kaons
are produced through the same sequential mechanisms or from decay into
two kaons and then undergo final state interaction leading to the final pair of
pions or , this latter mechanism being the leading one. The results
of the parameter free theory, together with the theoretical uncertainties, are
compared with the latest experimental results of KLOE at Frascati.Comment: 28 pages, 20 figure
Simulación por elementos finitos de la articulación temporomandibular
En los últimos años, las patologías asociadas a la articulación temporomandibular (ATM) han
cobrado una gran importancia en odontología y patología. Las disfunciones de esta articulación
están relacionadas con la inestabilidad mecánica y el movimiento irregular de los componentes
biomecánicos que la componen. Dentro de los diferentes elementos que forman esta articulación, es
el disco articular la pieza clave dentro de la misma, ya que absorbe las tensiones durante el
funcionamiento de la mandíbula, proporciona un adecuado contacto entre las superficies óseas y
proporciona estabilidad a la articulación. En este trabajo se desarrollaron dos modelos de elemento
finitos bidimensionales de la ATM, uno para una articulación sana y otro para una patológica
afectada de un desplazamiento anterior del disco. En ambos modelos de elementos finitos se introdujeron
diferentes modelos de comportamiento para simular de manera real el comportamiento del
disco articular. Las simulaciones realizadas resultaron ser fieles al comportamiento biomecánico
de la ATM real tanto sana como patológica, obteniéndose resultados cualitativos contrastados con
la experiencia clínica. Por otro lado, se demostró la necesidad de introducir modelos de comportamiento
complejos para simular de manera real el funcionamiento de esta articulación.Peer Reviewe
Transmit Power Minimization for MIMO Systems of Exponential Average BER with Fixed Outage Probability
This document is the Accepted Manuscript version of the following article: Dian-Wu Yue, and Yichuang Sun, ‘Transmit Power Minimization for MIMO Systems of Exponential Average BER with Fixed Outage Probability’, Wireless Personal Communications, Vol. 90 (4): 1951-1970, first available online on 20 June 2016. Under embargo. Embargo end date: 20 June 2017. The final publication is available at Springer via https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs11277-016-3432-4This paper is concerned with a wireless multiple-antenna system operating in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels with channel state information being known at both transmitter and receiver. By spatiotemporal subchannel selection and power control, it aims to minimize the average transmit power (ATP) of the MIMO system while achieving an exponential type of average bit error rate (BER) for each data stream. Under the constraints on each subchannel that individual outage probability and average BER are given, based on a traditional upper bound and a dynamic upper bound of Q function, two closed-form ATP expressions are derived, respectively, which can result in two different power allocation schemes. Numerical results are provided to validate the theoretical analysis, and show that the power allocation scheme with the dynamic upper bound can achieve more power savings than the one with the traditional upper bound.Peer reviewe
Analytical characterisation and pathology
Sem PDF.The aim of this work was to determine the physico-chemical characteristics of the stained-glass windows into the 19th century of two mausoleums located in the city of Belém do Pará (Brazil), and to evaluate their state of conservation. The glass chemical composition was determined by WXRF and SEM/EDS. The samples' morphology and the microorganisms' identification were carried out by optical microscopy. The results indicated that the samples were soda-lime silicate glass, with approximately 70wt. % of SiO2, which contributed to the resistance of the stained glass to the weathering. The concentration of Na2O was normally twice the K2O, which contrasts with the composition of other panels produced during the same period, as reported in the literature. The biofilm is composed by cyanobacteria and rotifers. Overall, the panels analysed were in a good state of conservation, despite their exposure to tropical climate conditions for more than a century with no preventive measures whatsoever.publishersversionpublishe
Final State Interactions in Hadronic D decays
We show that the large corrections due to final state interactions (FSI) in
the D^+\to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^+, D^+_s\to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^+, and D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+
decays can be accounted for by invoking scattering amplitudes in agreement with
those derived from phase shifts studies. In this way, broad/overlapping
resonances in S-waves are properly treated and the phase motions of the
transition amplitudes are driven by the corresponding scattering matrix
elements determined in many other experiments. This is an important step
forward in resolving the puzzle of the FSI in these decays. We also discuss why
the \sigma and \kappa resonances, hardly visible in scattering experiments, are
much more prominent and clearly visible in these decays without destroying the
agreement with the experimental \pi\pi and K\pi low energy S-wave phase shifts.Comment: 22 pages, 6 figures, 5 tables. Minor changes. We extend the discusion
