Direct URCA process in neutron stars with strong magnetic fields
We calculate the emissivity for the direct URCA process in strongly magnetized, degenerate matter in neutron stars, under beta-equilibrium. We show that, if the magnetic field is large enough for protons and electrons to be confined to their ground Landau levels, the field-free threshold condition on proton concentration no longer holds, and direct URCA reactions are open for an arbitrary proton concentration. Direct URCA process leads to an early phase of fast neutron star cooling. This circumstance allows us to constrain the initial magnetic field inside observed pulsars
Spatially Dependent Decoherence and Anomalous Diffussion of Quantum Walks
We analyze the long time behavior of a discrete time quantum walk subject to decoherence with a strong spatial dependence, acting on one half of the lattice. We show that, except for limiting cases on the decoherence parameter, the quantum walk at late times behaves sub-ballistically, meaning that the characteristic features of the quantum walk are not completely spoiled. Contrarily to expectations, the asymptotic behavior is non Markovian, and depends on the amount of decoherence. This feature can be clearly shown on the long time value of the Generalized Chiral Distribution (GCD)

Evaluación de la asignatura Medicina General Integral VII en el policlínico universitario
<strong>Background:</strong> the subject General Medicine VII is part of the guiding discipline in Medicine studies. It ensures that when Medicine Doctors obtain their degrees they have acquired all the knowledge that allows them to perform multiple tasks in health care services. <strong>Objective:</strong> to assess the subject General Medicine VII, in the university polyclinic as part of the educational process. <strong>Methods:</strong> we conducted a mixed research using quantitative and qualitative methods through a methodology that included the level of satisfaction of students, teachers, managers, and knowledge levels obtained by students. This methodology was applied in the fourth year of Medicine studies and in the four university polyclinics in the municipality of Cienfuegos, inserted into the new training model. <strong>Results: </strong>managers referred insufficient chances for exchanging with subordinates as well as for the profits of methodological activities, teachers were dissatisfied because of insufficient educational preparation and high work load and students reported difficulties with the availability and on-time delivery of textbooks, in addition to not having the necessary instrumentation for skills appropriation. <strong>Conclusions:</strong> we found that managers were dissatisfied with organizational and functional aspects, teachers with planning and implementation of the teaching process and students with the literature and the necessary tools while in teaching practice

Calidad de las actividades de la asignatura medicina general integral VII en los diferentes escenarios docentes
Fundamento: en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje que se desarrolla en los diferentes escenarios docentes, se deben tener en cuenta los contenidos ya impartidos, para logar una integración entre los conocimientos teóricos con la práctica médica. Objetivo: evaluar los escenarios docentes según la calidad de las actividades desarrolladas en la asignatura medicina general integral VII, en el contexto del policlínico universitario. Método: se realizó una investigación cuanti-cualitativa según el cumplimiento de indicadores de calidad mediante la aplicación de una guía de observación en los escenarios docentes de la asignatura medicina general integral VII, en el policlínico universitario. Los escenarios docentes evaluados fueron: consultorios, vacunatorios, círculos infantiles, hogares maternos y consulta de planificación familiar. Resultados: el consultorio, el vacunatorio, la consulta de planificación familiar, la escuela y círculo infantil fueron evaluados de regular, solo obtuvieron categoría de bien el hogar materno y el escenario cuerpo de guardia. Las actividades docentes con mayores dificultades fueron: la vigilancia epidemiológica para la pesquisa de factores de riesgo, el control de foco para enfermedades transmisibles y la presentación del análisis de la situación de salud a la comunidad. Conclusiones: el nivel escenario docente en la asignatura medicina general integral VII, de forma general fue evaluado de regular, por tener: el escenario consultorio, el vacunatorio, consulta de planificación familiar, la escuela y círculo infantil evaluados de regular, el hogar materno y el escenario cuerpo de guardia evaluados de bien
