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
Photometry and dynamics of the minor mergers AM\,1228-260 and AM\,2058-381
We investigate interaction effects on the dynamics and morphology of the
galaxy pairs AM\,2058-381 and AM\,1228-260. This work is based on images
and long-slit spectra obtained with the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph at the
Gemini South Telescope. The luminosity ratio between the main (AM\,2058A) and
secondary (AM\,2058B) components of the first pair is a factor of 5,
while for the other pair, the main (AM\,1228A) component is 20 times more
luminous than the secondary (AM\,1228B). The four galaxies have pseudo-bulges,
with a S\'ersic index . Their observed radial velocities profiles (RVPs)
present several irregularities. The receding side of the RVP of AM\,2058A is
displaced with respect to the velocity field model, while there is a strong
evidence that AM\,2058B is a tumbling body, rotating along its major axis. The
RVPs for AM\,1228A indicate a misalignment between the kinematic and
photometric major axes. The RVP for AM\,1228B is quite perturbed, very likely
due to the interaction with AM\,1228A. NFW halo parameters for AM\,2058A are
similar to those of the Milky Way and M\,31. The halo mass of AM\,1228A is
roughly 10\% that of AM\,2058A. The mass-to-light (M/L) of AM\,2058 agrees with
the mean value derived for late-type spirals, while the low M/L for AM\,1228A
may be due to the intense star formation ongoing in this galaxy.Comment: 20 pages, 10 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
Sistema de avaliação de impacto social da inovação tecnológica agropecuária (Ambitec-Social).
O sistema de avaliação de impacto social da inovação tecnológica agropecuária (Ambitec- Social) consiste de um conjunto de planilhas eletrônicas que integram quatorze indicadores da contribuição de uma dada inovação tecnológica agropecuária para o bem estar social, no âmbito de um estabelecimento rural. Quatro aspectos essenciais de avaliação são considerados: i. Emprego, ii. Renda, iii. Saúde, e iv. Gestão e Administração. Os indicadores são construídos em matrizes de ponderação nas quais dados obtidos em campo, de acordo com o conhecimento do produtor/administrador do estabelecimento, são automaticamente transformados em índices de impacto expressos graficamente. Os resultados da avaliação permitem, ao produtor/administrador, averiguar quais impactos da tecnologia podem estar desconformes com seus objetivos de bem estar social; ao tomador de decisões a indicação de medidas de fomento ou controle da adoção da tecnologia, segundo planos de desenvolvimento local sustentável e finalmente, proporcionam uma unidade de medida objetiva de impacto, auxiliando na qualificação, seleção e transferência de tecnologias agropecuárias.bitstream/CNPMA/5801/1/boletim_35.pd
