Galactic Nonlinear Dynamic Model
We develop a model for spiral galaxies based on a nonlinear realization of
the Newtonian dynamics starting from the momentum and mass conservations in the
phase space. The radial solution exhibits a rotation curve in qualitative
accordance with the observational data.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure. Talk given in the 7th Alexander Friedmann

Bioprospecção de actinobactérias da rizosfera para produção de metabólitos bioativos.
Actinobactérias rizosféricas, têm mostrado grande potencial na produção de metabólitos bioativos, sendo o gênero das Streptomyces o mais bem estudado e com melhor potencial para produção destes compostos. Assim, o presente trabalho visou realizar a bioprospecção de actinobactérias rizosféricas e avaliar o potencial de seus metabólitos bioativos no controle de bactérias patogênicas. Foram isoladas linhagens de actinobactérias de plantas sadias de milho, cultivado em diferentes regiões edafoclimáticas do Estado de São Paulo. As linhagens foram avaliadas quanto ao potencial de controle de Bacillus megaterium, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Pseudomonnas aeruginosa e Sthaphylococcus aureus. Os isolados que se mostraram eficientes em testes de antagonismo foram utilizados em ensaios de antibiose para verificação do potencial do composto bioativo no controle destes patógenos. Foram isolados 60 actinobactérias, identificadas morfologicamente como sendo do gênero Streptomyces. Dentre estas, 31 inibiram pelo menos 1 dos 5 patógenos em testes de antagonismos. Nos ensaios de antibiose, foi verificada a eficiência dos metabólitos de 25 actinobactérias no controle dos patógenos testados

Why pair production cures covariance in the light-front?
We show that the light-front vaccum is not trivial, and the Fock space for
positive energy quanta solutions is not complete. As an example of this non
triviality we have calculated the electromagnetic current for scalar bosons in
the background field method were the covariance is restored through considering
the complete Fock space of solutions. We also show thus that the method of
"dislocating the integration pole" is nothing more than a particular case of
this, so that such an "ad hoc" prescription can be dispensed altogether if we
deal with the whole Fock space. In this work we construct the electromagnetic
current operator for a system composed of two free bosons. The technique
employed to deduce these operators is through the definition of global
propagators in the light front when a background electromagnetic field acts on
one of the particles.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figure

Topological insulator particles as optically induced oscillators: towards dynamical force measurements and optical rheology
We report the first experimental study upon the optical trapping and
manipulation of topological insulator (TI) particles. By virtue of the unique
TI properties, which have a conducting surface and an insulating bulk, the
particles present a peculiar behaviour in the presence of a single laser beam
optical tweezers: they oscillate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of
the laser propagation, as a result of the competition between radiation
pressure and gradient forces. In other words, TI particles behave as optically
induced oscillators, allowing dynamical measurements with unprecedented
simplicity and purely optical control. Actually, optical rheology of soft
matter interfaces and biological membranes, as well as dynamical force
measurements in macromolecules and biopolymers, may be quoted as feasible
possibilities for the near future.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Correspondence and requests for Supplementary
