Spin relaxation time, spin dephasing time and ensemble spin dephasing time in -type GaAs quantum wells
We investigate the spin relaxation and spin dephasing of -type GaAs
quantum wells. We obtain the spin relaxation time , the spin dephasing
time and the ensemble spin dephasing time by solving the
full microscopic kinetic spin Bloch equations, and we show that, analogous to
the common sense in an isotropic system for conduction electrons, ,
and are identical due to the short correlation time. The
inhomogeneous broadening induced by the D'yakonov-Perel term is suppressed by
the scattering, especially the Coulomb scattering, in this system.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, to be published in Phys. Lett.
Determination of superconducting anisotropy from magnetization data on random powders as applied to LuNiBC, YNiBC and MgB
The recently discovered intermetallic superconductor MgB2 appears to have a
highly anisotopic upper critical field with Hc2(max)/Hc2(min} = \gamma > 5. In
order to determine the temperature dependence of both Hc2(max) and Hc2(min) we
propose a method of extracting the superconducting anisotropy from the
magnetization M(H,T) of randomly oriented powder samples. The method is based
on two features in dM/dT the onset of diamagnetism at Tc(max), that is commonly
associated with Hc2, and a kink in dM/dT at a lower temperature Tc(min).
Results for LuNi2B2C and YNi2B2C powders are in agreement with anisotropic Hc2
obtained from magneto-transport measurements on single crystals. Using this
method on four different types of MgB2 powder samples we are able to determine
Hc2(max)(T) and Hc2(min)(T) with \gamma \approx 6
Frictional drag between non-equilibrium charged gases
The frictional drag force between separated but coupled two-dimensional
electron gases of different temperatures is studied using the non-equilibrium
Green function method based on the separation of center-of-mass and relative
dynamics of electrons. As the mechanisms of producing the frictional force we
include the direct Coulomb interaction, the interaction mediated via virtual
and real TA and LA phonons, optic phonons, plasmons, and TA and LA
phonon-electron collective modes. We found that, when the distance between the
two electron gases is large, and at intermediate temperature where plasmons and
collective modes play the most important role in the frictional drag, the
possibility of having a temperature difference between two subsystems modifies
greatly the transresistivity.Comment: 8figure
Efeito de fontes e de aditivos na absorção de 35S via foliar pelo feijoeiro
A greenhouse experiment was carried out with the aim of evaluating the effect of sulphur sources, in the presence or absence of additives (urea and glucose), on the sulphur uptake by bean leaves. The treatments: solutions of sulphuric acid, ammonium, potassium, magnesium, manganese and zinc sulphates labelled with 35S, containing or not the additives, were applied to the first trifoliate of the plants to assess the sulphur uptake and translocation. The results enable to conclude that 33% of the added sulphur was absorved, and 27% out of this total was translocated. The additives did not have any influence on uptake and translocation. The sulphuric acid and ammonium sulphate solutions were the best sulphur suppliers for the bean plant.Foi conduzido em casa de vegetação um experimento com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de fontes de enxofre, na presença ou não de aditivos (uréia e glicose), sobre a absorção do demento pelas folhas de feijoeiro. Os tratamentos: soluções de ácido sulfúrico e de sulfates de amonio, potássio, magnésio, manganês e zinco marcadas com 35S, contendo ou não os aditivos, foram aplicados ao primeiro trifólio das plantas para avaliar a absorção e translocação de enxofre. Os resultados permitiram concluir que 33% do S adicionado foi absorvido, e desse total 27% foi translocado, não havendo influência dos aditivos sobre esses processos. O ácido sulfúrico e o sulfato de amonio destacaram-se como os melhores fornecedores de enxofre, via foliar, para o feijoeiro

The Southern Ocean Exchange: Porous boundaries between humpback whale breeding populations in southern polar waters
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a cosmopolitan species and perform long annual migrations between low-latitude breeding areas and high-latitude feeding areas. Their breeding populations appear to be spatially and genetically segregated due to long-term, maternally inherited fidelity to natal breeding areas. In the Southern Hemisphere, some humpback whale breeding populations mix in Southern Ocean waters in summer, but very little movement between Pacific and Atlantic waters has been identified to date, suggesting these waters constituted an oceanic boundary between genetically distinct populations. Here, we present new evidence of summer co-occurrence in the West Antarctic Peninsula feeding area of two recovering humpback whale breeding populations from the Atlantic (Brazil) and Pacific (Central and South America). As humpback whale populations recover, observations like this point to the need to revise our perceptions of boundaries between stocks, particularly on high latitude feeding grounds. We suggest that this “Southern Ocean Exchange” may become more frequent as populations recover from commercial whaling and climate change modifies environmental dynamics and humpback whale prey availability
