Intrinsic versus super-rough anomalous scaling in spontaneous imbibition
We study spontaneous imbibition using a phase field model in a two
dimensional system with a dichotomic quenched noise. By imposing a constant
pressure at the origin, we study the case when the interface
advances at low velocities, obtaining the scaling exponents ,
and within the intrinsic
anomalous scaling scenario. These results are in quite good agreement with
experimental data recently published. Likewise, when we increase the interface
velocity, the resulting scaling exponents are , and . Moreover, we observe that the local
properties of the interface change from a super-rough to an intrinsic anomalous
description when the contrast between the two values of the dichotomic noise is
increased. From a linearized interface equation we can compute analytically the
global scaling exponents which are comparable to the numerical results,
introducing some properties of the quenched noise.Comment: Accepted for publication in Physical Review
Influence of Disorder Strength on Phase Field Models of Interfacial Growth
We study the influence of disorder strength on the interface roughening
process in a phase-field model with locally conserved dynamics. We consider two
cases where the mobility coefficient multiplying the locally conserved current
is either constant throughout the system (the two-sided model) or becomes zero
in the phase into which the interface advances (one-sided model). In the limit
of weak disorder, both models are completely equivalent and can reproduce the
physical process of a fluid diffusively invading a porous media, where
super-rough scaling of the interface fluctuations occurs. On the other hand,
increasing disorder causes the scaling properties to change to intrinsic
anomalous scaling. In the limit of strong disorder this behavior prevails for
the one-sided model, whereas for the two-sided case, nucleation of domains in
front of the invading front are observed.Comment: Accepted for publication in PR
Avaliação da composição química das espigas de três híbridos de milho (Zea mays L.) em quatro estádios de maturação.
O objetivo deste experimento foi avaliar a composição química das espigas dos três híbridos de milho BRS 1035, BRS 1031 e BRS 1001 em quatro idades de corte, a partir da determinação dos parâmetros: matéria seca (MS), proteína bruta (PB), fibra detergente neutro (FDN) e fibra detergente ácido (FDA). O delineamento utilizado foi inteiramente casualizado com fatorial3 (híbridos) x 4 (idades de corte), sendo as médias comparadas pelo teste SNK (P<0,05). Todos os híbridos demonstraram um aumento do teor de MS de 87 para 171 dias, com diferença (P<0,05) entre todos os cortes. Não houve diferença (P<0,05) nos valores de PB entre os cortes em todos os híbridos. Aos 94 dias o híbrido BRS 1001 (5,67%) demonstrou um valor de PB superior (P<0,05) ao BRS 1031 (4,66%) e ambos foram semelhantes (P<0,05) ao BRS 1035 (5,11%). Todos os híbridos apresentaram uma queda dos valores de FDN com o avanço da maturidade até 101 dias. A variação dos valores de FDA da espiga foi muito semelhante à variação do FDN já que a correlação dessas características foi 0,97 (P<0,001). Não houve diferença (P<0,05) nos valores de FDA entre os híbridos dentro dos cortes. Os híbridos avaliados neste experimento apresentaram as mesmas tendências de aumento da MS da' espiga com o avançar da maturidade fisiológica com provável acúmulo de amido na espiga, reduzindo os teores de carboidratos estruturais como FDN e FDA nessa fração da planta

Mode identification in the high-amplitude {\delta} Scuti star V2367 Cyg
We report on a multi-site photometric campaign on the high-amplitude
Scuti star V2367 Cyg in order to determine the pulsation modes. We also used
high-dispersion spectroscopy to estimate the stellar parameters and projected
rotational velocity. Time series multicolour photometry was obtained during a
98-d interval from five different sites. These data were used together with
model atmospheres and non-adiabatic pulsation models to identify the spherical
harmonic degree of the three independent frequencies of highest amplitude as
well as the first two harmonics of the dominant mode. This was accomplished by
matching the observed relative light amplitudes and phases in different
wavebands with those computed by the models. In general, our results support
the assumed mode identifications in a previous analysis of Kepler data.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, 4 tables. Accepted for publication in MNRA
Ultrahigh energy neutrinos and non-linear QCD dynamics
The ultrahigh energy neutrino-nucleon cross sections are computed taking into
account different phenomenological implementations of the non-linear QCD
dynamic s. Based on the color dipole framework, the results for the saturation
model supplemented by DGLAP evolution as well as for the BFKL formalism in the
geometric scaling regime are presented. They are contrasted with recent
calculations using NLO DGLAP and unified BFKL-DGLAP formalisms.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures. Version to be published in Physical Review
