A Generalized Gauge Invariant Regularization of the Schwinger Model
The Schwinger model is studied with a new one - parameter class of gauge
invariant regularizations that generalizes the usual point - splitting or
Fujikawa schemes. The spectrum is found to be qualitatively unchanged, except
for a limiting value of the regularizing parameter, where free fermions appear
in the spectrum.Comment: 16 pages, SINP/TNP/93-1
Functional Bosonization of Non-Relativistic Fermions in Dimensions
We analyze the universality of the bosonization rules in non-relativistic
fermionic systems in . We show that, in the case of linear fermionic
dispersion relations, a general fermionic theory can be mapped into a gauge
theory in such a way that the fermionic density maps into a magnetic flux and
the fermionic current maps into a transverse electric field. These are
universal rules in the sense that they remain valid whatever the interaction
considered. We also show that these rules are universal in the case of
non-linear dispersion relations provided we consider only density-density
interactions. We apply the functional bosonization formalism to a
non-relativistic and non-local massive Thirring-like model and evaluate the
spectrum of collective excitations in several limits. In the large mass limit,
we are able to exactly calculate this spectrum for arbitrary density-density
and current-current interactions. We also analyze the massless case and show
that it has no collective excitations for any density-density potential in the
Gaussian approximation. Moreover, the presence of current interactions may
induce a gapless mode with a linear dispersion relation.Comment: 26 Pages, LaTeX, Final version to appear in International Journal of

Improving the Global Fitting Method on Non-Linear Time Series Analysis
In this paper, we are concerned with improving the forecast capabilities of
the Global approach to Time Series. We assume that the normal techniques of
Global mapping are applied, the noise reduction is performed, etc. Then, using
the mathematical foundations behind such approaches, we propose a method that,
without a great computational cost, greatly increase the accuracy of the
corresponding forecasting
Advanced oxidation of organic matter in natural waters with TiO2 immobilized films
The purpose of this paper is to report the development of a laboratory -scale
pilot based on the use of TiO2 photocatalytic thin films for degrading organic matter and pollutants from natural water. The photoreactor consists of a channel inclined with a glass plate coated by TiO2 in both faces and fixed at 1 cm from the bottom. The thin film was immobilized on the glass plates by Sputtering technique. The reactor was designed to be able of reproduce the hydraulic conditions of a water treatment plant. In experimental testing of degradation of organic matter with solar irradiation maximum efficiency of 50% was achieved. At optimal conditions it was possible to exceed the efficiencies of a full scale preozonization in a water treatment plant , thus providing a more sustainable process
Time evolution of a superposition of dressed oscillator states in a cavity
Using the formalism of {\it renormalized} coordinates and \textit{dressed}
states introduced in previous publications, we perform a nonperturbative study
of the time evolution of a superposition of two states, the ground state and
the first excited level of a harmonic oscillator, the system being confined in
a perfectly reflecting cavity of radius . For , we find
dissipation with dominance of the interference terms of the density matrix, in
both weak- and strong-coupling regimes. For small values of all elements of
the density matrix present an oscillatory behavior as times goes on and the
system is not dissipative. In both cases, we obtain improved theoretical
results with respect to those coming from perturbation theory.Comment: 15 pages, LATEX, 3 figures; version to appear in J. Phys. A - Math.

EMBRAPA 52 - nova cultivar de trigo para o Rio Grande do Sul.
Para atender às demandas por cultivares de trigo (Triticum aestivum L.) com melhores níveis de rendimento, resistência a doenças e qualidade panificativa superior, foi recomendada para cultivo no Rio Grande do Sul, a partir de 1996, a cultivar EMBRAPA 52. Desenvolvida na Embrapa - Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Trigo, apresenta ciclo precoce, estatura média e resistência ao crestamento. Pode mostrar problemas relativos ao acamamento, em condições de elevada fertilidade do solo, e à germinação na espiga, em anos chuvosos na colheita. Até a sua recomendação, apresentou comportamento fitossanitário favorável em campo, sendo suscetível em plântula a cinco raças de ferrugem-da-folha e resistente a todas as raças de ferrugem-do-colmo ocorrentes no Brasil. É moderadamente suscetível à septoriose das glumas e suscetível ao carvão. Comporta-se como resistente em campo ao oídio e ao vírus-do-mosaico-do-trigo. No período 1993-95, 'EMBRAPA 52', foi o trigo de mais alto rendimento entre todos os testados, superando em 13% as testemunhas oficiais na média geral do Estado. Pelos testes de alveografia e farinografia, foi preliminarmente classificada na classe comercial superior, sendo indicada para panificação e para fabricação de massas alimentícias e de crackers
