A Flexible Implementation of a Matrix Laurent Series-Based 16-Point Fast Fourier and Hartley Transforms
This paper describes a flexible architecture for implementing a new fast
computation of the discrete Fourier and Hartley transforms, which is based on a
matrix Laurent series. The device calculates the transforms based on a single
bit selection operator. The hardware structure and synthesis are presented,
which handled a 16-point fast transform in 65 nsec, with a Xilinx SPARTAN 3E
device.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. IEEE VI Southern Programmable Logic Conference

Nematic liquid crystal dynamics under applied electric fields
In this paper we investigate the dynamics of liquid crystal textures in a
two-dimensional nematic under applied electric fields, using numerical
simulations performed using a publicly available LIquid CRystal Algorithm
(LICRA) developed by the authors. We consider both positive and negative
dielectric anisotropies and two different possibilities for the orientation of
the electric field (parallel and perpendicular to the two-dimensional lattice).
We determine the effect of an applied electric field pulse on the evolution of
the characteristic length scale and other properties of the liquid crystal
texture network. In particular, we show that different types of defects are
produced after the electric field is switched on, depending on the orientation
of the electric field and the sign of the dielectric anisotropy.Comment: 7 pages, 12 figure

Enfezamentos em milho: expressão de sintomas foliares, detecção dos molicutes e interações com genótipos.
Com o objetivo de verificar a multiplicacao, expressao de sintomas foliares e efeito dos molicutes na producao de diferentes genotipos de milho, fitoplasma e Spiroplasma kunkelii foram inoculados, isolada ou simultaneamente, em cinco cultivares, mantidas em vasos ate a producao. Plantas sadias de todas as cultivares foram utilizadas como controle. Em cada vaso, foram cultivadas duas plantas, sendo uma utilizada para a deteccao dos molicutes na ultima folha completamente expandida, aos 30, 60 e 100 dias apos a inoculacao. A outra planta foi utilizada para deteccao dos molicutes nas folhas inferiores, medianas e apicais, aos 100 dias apos a inoculacao. O percentual de reducao causado pelos molicutes na altura e na producao de graos foi determinado nas duas plantas, em relacao as plantas sadias. A expressao de sintomas foliares e os resultados positivos obtidos na deteccao dos molicutes foram mais evidentes aos 100 dias apos a inoculacao. O periodo de enchimento de graos foi considerado a fase mais adequada para a deteccao desses patogenos. Os molicutes foram detectados nas folhas inferiores, medianas e apicais, observando-se maior frequencia nas folhas apicais. Verificou-se predominancia de infeccao por espiroplasma e maior efeito detrimental desse patogeno no crescimento e producao das plantas em relacao ao fitoplasma. Nao foi detectado efeito sinergistico significativo dos dois molicutes sobre o crescimento e producao das plantas. Observou-se que o efeito prejudicial desses patogenos sobre o crescimento e producao das cultivares foi determinado pela frequencia de plantas infectadas
Are the Tails of Percolation Thresholds Gaussians ?
The probability distribution of percolation thresholds in finite lattices
were first believed to follow a normal Gaussian behaviour. With increasing
computer power and more efficient simulational techniques, this belief turned
to a stretched exponential behaviour, instead. Here, based on a further
improvement of Monte Carlo data, we show evidences that this question is not
yet answered at all.Comment: 7 pages including 3 figure

FINITE SIZE SCALING FOR FIRST ORDER TRANSITIONS: POTTS MODEL
The finite-size scaling algorithm based on bulk and surface renormalization
of de Oliveira (1992) is tested on q-state Potts models in dimensions D = 2 and
3. Our Monte Carlo data clearly distinguish between first- and second-order
phase transitions. Continuous-q analytic calculations performed for small
lattices show a clear tendency of the magnetic exponent Y = D - beta/nu to
reach a plateau for increasing values of q, which is consistent with the
first-order transition value Y = D. Monte Carlo data confirm this trend.Comment: 5 pages, plain tex, 5 EPS figures, in file POTTS.UU (uufiles
Comparison of solar radio and EUV synoptic limb charts during the present solar maximum
The present solar cycle is particular in many aspects: it had a delayed
rising phase, it is the weakest of the last 100 years, and it presents two
peaks separated by more than one year. To understand the impact of these
characteristics on the solar chromosphere and coronal dynamics, images from a
wide wavelength range are needed. In this work we use the 17~GHz radio
continuum, formed in the upper chromosphere and the EUV lines 304 and
171~{\AA}, that come from the transition region (He II) and the corona (Fe IX,
X), respectively. We analyze daily images at 304 and 171~{\AA} obtained by the
Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA). The 17~GHz maps were obtained by the
Nobeyama Radioheliograph (NoRH). To construct synoptic limb charts, we
calculated the mean emission of delimited limb areas with 100" wide and angular
separation of . At the equatorial region, the results show an
hemispheric asymmetry of the solar activity. The northern hemisphere dominance
is coincident with the first sunspot number peak, whereas the second peak
occurs concurrently with the increase in the activity at the south. The polar
emission reflects the presence of coronal holes at both EUV wavelengths,
moreover, the 17~GHz polar brightenings can be associated with the coronal
holes. Until 2013, both EUV coronal holes and radio polar brightenings were
more predominant at the south pole. Since then they have not been apparent in
the north, but thus appear in the beginning of 2015 in the south as observed in
the synoptic charts. This work strengthens the association between coronal
holes and the 17~GHz polar brightenings as it is evident in the synoptic limb
charts, in agreement with previous case study papers. The enhancement of the
radio brightness in coronal holes is explained by the presence of bright
patches closely associated with the presence of intense unipolar magnetic
fields.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Acccepted for publication in Astronomy &
