First study of the gluon-quark-antiquark static potential in SU(3) Lattice QCD
We study the long distance interaction for hybrid hadrons, with a static
gluon, a quark and an antiquark with lattice QCD techniques. A Wilson loop
adequate to the static hybrid three-body system is developed and, using a 24^3
x 48 periodic lattice with beta=6.2 and a ~ 0.075 fm, two different geometries
for the gluon-quark segment and the gluon-antiquark segment are investigated.
When these segments are perpendicular, the static potential is compatible with
confinement realized with a pair of fundamental strings, one linking the gluon
to the quark and another linking the same gluon to the antiquark. When the
segments are parallel and superposed, the total string tension is larger and
agrees with the Casimir Scaling measured by Bali. This can be interpreted with
a type-II superconductor analogy for the confinement in QCD, with repulsion of
the fundamental strings and with the string tension of the first topological
excitation of the string (the adjoint string) larger than the double of the
fundamental string tension.Comment: 4 pages RevTeX, 4 figure
Towards a knowledge-based system to assist the Brazilian data-collecting system operation
A study is reported which was carried out to show how a knowledge-based approach would lead to a flexible tool to assist the operation task in a satellite-based environmental data collection system. Some characteristics of a hypothesized system comprised of a satellite and a network of Interrogable Data Collecting Platforms (IDCPs) are pointed out. The Knowledge-Based Planning Assistant System (KBPAS) and some aspects about how knowledge is organized in the IDCP's domain are briefly described
Temperature effect on (2+1) experimental Kardar-Parisi-Zhang growth
We report on the effect of substrate temperature (T) on both local structure
and long-wavelength fluctuations of polycrystalline CdTe thin films deposited
on Si(001). A strong T-dependent mound evolution is observed and explained in
terms of the energy barrier to inter-grain diffusion at grain boundaries, as
corroborated by Monte Carlo simulations. This leads to transitions from
uncorrelated growth to a crossover from random-to-correlated growth and
transient anomalous scaling as T increases. Due to these finite-time effects,
we were not able to determine the universality class of the system through the
critical exponents. Nevertheless, we demonstrate that this can be circumvented
by analyzing height, roughness and maximal height distributions, which allow us
to prove that CdTe grows asymptotically according to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang
(KPZ) equation in a broad range of T. More important, one finds positive
(negative) velocity excess in the growth at low (high) T, indicating that it is
possible to control the KPZ non-linearity by adjusting the temperature.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
The mechanism for the electrooxidation of procarbazine pharmaceutical preparation in alkaline media and its mathematical description
The mechanism for the electrooxidation of procarbazine in alkaline media has been proposed. The process is realized completely on the electrode surface and is adsorption-controlled. The oscillatory behavior in this case is more probable, than for neutral media and may be caused by influences of electrochemical oxidation and salt dissolution from the electrode surface
Entanglement of random vectors
We analytically calculate the average value of i-th largest Schmidt
coefficient for random pure quantum states. Schmidt coefficients, i.e.,
eigenvalues of the reduced density matrix, are expressed in the limit of large
Hilbert space size and for arbitrary bipartite splitting as an implicit
function of index i.Comment: 8 page
From an individual approach to a Cluster strategy
Portuguese agri-food sector, as well as in Europe, is characterized by being dispersed and pulverized. Nevertheless, in Portugal, the Food and Beverage Industry (F&BI) has the highest rates in terms of turnover of the manufacturing industry - corresponding to 20% (INE - 2009). This sector is a key vector of the economy, contributing the most to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Due to the relative small dimension of the domestic market, and its subsequent small scale, companies are obliged to turn to international markets in order to be more competitive
