Introducing active methodologies in a basic subject: Veterinary Pharmacology
[EN] In recent years changes in higher education, as a result of convergence to European Higher Education Area, are pointing towards a more active learning by the students and also towards a teachers’ new role. This new role involves providing to the students the conditions for learning and accompanying them through the learning process. This paper presents the adaptation process since 2003 to the new context in a basic Subject of the Veterinary Degree: Pharmacology. During this period, problem-based learning and Aronson’s jigsaw have been introduced to acquire specific competencies in Therapeutics and in Pharmaceutical Forms respectively, furthermore of other transversal competencies offered by these methodologies. Students’ self-assessment and teamwork students’ peer assessment have been also included. Moreover other experiences have been developed, including coordination with another subject, General Pathology, to solve common problems and clinical cases, and to prepare materials about pharmacological research in infectious and parasitic processes. In general, these new experiences have been highly valuated by all stakeholders: students and faculty.[ES] Los cambios producidos en los Ăşltimos años en la EducaciĂłn Superior con motivo de la convergencia al Espacio Europeo de EducaciĂłn Superior apuntan hacia un aprendizaje más activo por parte del estudiante y a un nuevo papel del profesorado, que proporciona las condiciones para que el aprendizaje del estudiante se produzca y le acompaña en el proceso. En este artĂculo se presenta la adaptaciĂłn a este nuevo contexto que se ha ido produciendo desde el año 2003 en una asignatura básica de los estudios conducentes a la licenciatura o el grado de Veterinaria de la Universidad de Zaragoza: FarmacologĂa. En este periodo se han incorporado el Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas (ABP) y el Puzzle de Aronson para la adquisiciĂłn de competencias especĂficas en TerapĂ©utica y Formas FarmacĂ©uticas respectivamente, además de las competencias transversales propias de estas metodologĂas. TambiĂ©n se ha incluido la autoevaluaciĂłn y la evaluaciĂłn por pares del trabajo en equipo de los estudiantes. AsĂ mismo, se han realizado otras experiencias que incluyen la coordinaciĂłn con otra asignatura, PatologĂa General, para la resoluciĂłn de problemas o casos clĂnicos comunes, asĂ como la preparaciĂłn de diversos materiales para el estudio de la FarmacologĂa de los procesos infecciosos y parasitarios. En general, la introducciĂłn de estas nuevas experiencias ha sido valorada positivamente por todos los actores implicados: los estudiantes y el profesorado.A la Universidad de Zaragoza por la concesiĂłn de los proyectos de innovaciĂłn docente: “El aprendizaje basado en la soluciĂłn de problemas aplicado a FarmacologĂa Veterinaria (2004), PIIDUZ_08_2_199, PIIDUZ_09_2_078, PIIDUZ_09_2_310, PIIDUZ_10_2_116, PIIDUZ_10_1_056, PIIDUZ_12_1_203, y especialmente por el proyecto de evaluaciĂłn, divulgaciĂłn y reconocimiento de experiencias innovadoras de especial interĂ©s PIIDUZ_08_5_195.

Observation of the γγ→ττ Process in Pb+Pb Collisions and Constraints on the τ-Lepton Anomalous Magnetic Moment with the ATLAS Detector
This Letter reports the observation of τ-lepton-pair production in ultraperipheral lead-lead collisions Pb+Pb→Pb(γγ→ττ)Pb and constraints on the τ-lepton anomalous magnetic moment a_{τ}. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1.44  nb^{-1} of LHC Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02  TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment in 2018. Selected events contain one muon from a τ-lepton decay, an electron or charged-particle track(s) from the other τ-lepton decay, little additional central-detector activity, and no forward neutrons. The γγ→ττ process is observed in Pb+Pb collisions with a significance exceeding 5 standard deviations and a signal strength of μ_{ττ}=1.03_{-0.05}^{+0.06} assuming the standard model value for a_{τ}. To measure a_{τ}, a template fit to the muon transverse-momentum distribution from τ-lepton candidates is performed, using a dimuon (γγ→μμ) control sample to constrain systematic uncertainties. The observed 95% confidence-level interval for a_{τ} is -0.057<a_{τ}<0.024
Observation of Single-Top-Quark Production in Association with a Photon Using the ATLAS Detector
This Letter reports the observation of single top quarks produced together with a photon, which directly probes the electroweak coupling of the top quark. The analysis uses 139  fb^{-1} of 13 TeV proton-proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Requiring a photon with transverse momentum larger than 20 GeV and within the detector acceptance, the fiducial cross section is measured to be 688±23(stat) _{-71}^{+75}(syst)  fb, to be compared with the standard model prediction of 515_{-42}^{+36}  fb at next-to-leading order in QCD
Test of CP Invariance in Higgs Boson Vector-Boson-Fusion Production Using the H→γγ Channel with the ATLAS Detector
A test of CP invariance in Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion has been performed in the H→γγ channel using 139  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The optimal observable method is used to probe the CP structure of interactions between the Higgs boson and electroweak gauge bosons, as described by an effective field theory. No sign of CP violation is observed in the data. Constraints are set on the parameters describing the strength of the CP-odd component in the coupling between the Higgs boson and the electroweak gauge bosons in two effective field theory bases: d[over ˜] in the HISZ basis and c_{HW[over ˜]} in the Warsaw basis. The results presented are the most stringent constraints on CP violation in the coupling between Higgs and weak bosons. The 95% C.L. constraint on d[over ˜] is derived for the first time and the 95% C.L. constraint on c_{HW[over ˜]} has been improved by a factor of 5 compared to the previous measurement
