Realizing the supersymmetric inverse seesaw model in the framework of R-parity violation
If, on one hand, the inverse seesaw is the paradigm of TeV scale seesaw
mechanism, on the other it is a challenge to find scenarios capable of
realizing it. In this work we propose a scenario, based on the framework of
R-parity violation, that realizes minimally the supersymmetric inverse seesaw
mechanism. In it the energy scale parameters involved in the mechanism are
recognized as the vacuum expectation values of the scalars that compose the
singlet superfields and . We develop also the scalar sector
of the model and show that the Higgs mass receives a new tree-level
contribution that, when combined with the standard contribution plus loop
correction, is capable of attaining GeV without resort to heavy stops.Comment: Minor modification of the text. Final version to be published in PL
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
Spontaneous CP violation in the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos
We implement the mechanism of spontaneous CP violation in the 3-3-1 model
with right-handed neutrinos and recognize their sources of CP violation. Our
main result is that the mechanism works already in the minimal version of the
model and new sources of CP violation emerges as an effect of new physics at
energies higher than the electroweak scale.Comment: Major changes in the quark sector, electronic dipole moment of the

Neutrino Mixing and the Minimal 3-3-1 Model
In the minimal 3-3-1 model charged leptons come in a non-diagonal basis.
Moreover the Yukawa interactions of the model lead to a non-hermitian charged
lepton mass matrix. In other words, the minimal 3-3-1 model presents a very
complex lepton mixing. In view of this we check rigorously if the possible
textures of the lepton mass matrices allowed by the minimal 3-3-1 model can
lead or not to the neutrino mixing required by the recent experiments in
neutrino oscillation.Comment: two references add, minor chages, accepted for publication in MPL
A Direct Multigrid Poisson Solver for Oct-Tree Adaptive Meshes
We describe a finite-volume method for solving the Poisson equation on
oct-tree adaptive meshes using direct solvers for individual mesh blocks. The
method is a modified version of the method presented by Huang and Greengard
(2000), which works with finite-difference meshes and does not allow for shared
boundaries between refined patches. Our algorithm is implemented within the
FLASH code framework and makes use of the PARAMESH library, permitting
efficient use of parallel computers. We describe the algorithm and present test
results that demonstrate its accuracy.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, accepted by the Astrophysical Journal; minor
