Critical wave-packet dynamics in the power-law bond disordered Anderson Model
We investigate the wave-packet dynamics of the power-law bond disordered
one-dimensional Anderson model with hopping amplitudes decreasing as
. We consider the critical case ().
Using an exact diagonalization scheme on finite chains, we compute the
participation moments of all stationary energy eigenstates as well as the
spreading of an initially localized wave-packet. The eigenstates
multifractality is characterized by the set of fractal dimensions of the
participation moments. The wave-packet shows a diffusive-like spread developing
a power-law tail and achieves a stationary non-uniform profile after reflecting
at the chain boundaries. As a consequence, the time-dependent participation
moments exhibit two distinct scaling regimes. We formulate a finite-size
scaling hypothesis for the participation moments relating their scaling
exponents to the ones governing the return probability and wave-function

Delocalization in harmonic chains with long-range correlated random masses
We study the nature of collective excitations in harmonic chains with masses
exhibiting long-range correlated disorder with power spectrum proportional to
, where is the wave-vector of the modulations on the random
masses landscape. Using a transfer matrix method and exact diagonalization, we
compute the localization length and participation ratio of eigenmodes within
the band of allowed energies. We find extended vibrational modes in the
low-energy region for . In order to study the time evolution of an
initially localized energy input, we calculate the second moment of
the energy spatial distribution. We show that , besides being dependent
of the specific initial excitation and exhibiting an anomalous diffusion for
weakly correlated disorder, assumes a ballistic spread in the regime
due to the presence of extended vibrational modes.Comment: 6 pages, 9 figure

Four dimensional "old minimal" N=2 supersymmetrization of R^4
We write in superspace the lagrangian containing the fourth power of the Weyl
tensor in the "old minimal" d=4, N=2 supergravity, without local SO(2)
symmetry. Using gauge completion, we analyze the lagrangian in components. We
find out that the auxiliary fields which belong to the Weyl and compensating
vector multiplets have derivative terms and therefore cannot be eliminated
on-shell. Only the auxiliary fields which belong to the compensating nonlinear
multiplet do not get derivatives and could still be eliminated; we check that
this is possible in the leading terms of the lagrangian. We compare this result
to the similar one of "old minimal" N=1 supergravity and we comment on possible
generalizations to other versions of N=1,2 supergravity.Comment: 31 pages, no figures. Minor corrections. Details of the full
calculation included as an appendix. Reference adde
Magnon delocalization in ferromagnetic chains with long-range correlated disorder
We study one-magnon excitations in a random ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain
with long-range correlations in the coupling constant distribution. By
employing an exact diagonalization procedure, we compute the localization
length of all one-magnon states within the band of allowed energies . The
random distribution of coupling constants was assumed to have a power spectrum
decaying as . We found that for ,
one-magnon excitations remain exponentially localized with the localization
length diverging as 1/E. For a faster divergence of is
obtained. For any , a phase of delocalized magnons emerges at the
bottom of the band. We characterize the scaling behavior of the localization
length on all regimes and relate it with the scaling properties of the
long-range correlated exchange coupling distribution.Comment: 7 Pages, 5 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Reflectância de um vinhedo irrigado no Submédio do Vale do São Francisco.
Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar os valores de reflectância média diária durante um ciclo produtivo da videira. Para tanto, foi conduzido um experimento em uma área comercial da Fazenda Ouro Verde, município de Casa Nova-BA, no qual foi utilizada a variedade Syrah. Para a determinação da reflectância, foram utilizados três piranômetros, sendo um para medir radiação global incidente (Rgi) e dois instalados de maneira invertida, com o sensor voltado para a superfície, para medir a radiação refletida (Rgr). Posteriormente, com base nestes dados, a refletância foi obtida por meio da relação entre os valores da radiação solar refletida (Rgr) e incidente (Rgi). Observou-se que os valores horários da reflectância estiveram relacionados ao ângulo de elevação solar. Durante o ciclo produtivo da videira oscilou de 24% à 15%, com valores médios diários em torno de 19%. Estes dados podem ser utilizados como parâmetros de entrada em modelos de simulação climática
