Health and Democracy in Brazil: Public Value and Institutional Capital in the Unified Health System
Objectives: This paper looks at the Unified Health System in Brazil, evaluating the progress and contradictions that arise in the differential dynamics of each of the processes that compose it
Fractional Supersymmetry and Fth-Roots of Representations
A generalization of super-Lie algebras is presented. It is then shown that
all known examples of fractional supersymmetry can be understood in this
formulation. However, the incorporation of three dimensional fractional
supersymmetry in this framework needs some care. The proposed solutions lead
naturally to a formulation of a fractional supersymmetry starting from any
representation D of any Lie algebra g. This involves taking the Fth-roots of D
in an appropriate sense. A fractional supersymmetry in any space-time dimension
is then possible. This formalism finally leads to an infinite dimensional
extension of g, reducing to the centerless Virasoro algebra when g=sl(2,R).Comment: 23 pages, 1 figure, LaTex file with epsf.st
Raman scattering through surfaces having biaxial symmetry
Magnetic Raman scattering in two-leg spin ladder materials and the
relationship between the anisotropic exchange integrals are analyzed by P. J.
Freitas and R. R. P. Singh in Phys. Rev. B, {\bf 62}, 14113 (2000). The angular
dependence of the two-magnon scattering is shown to provide information for the
magnetic anisotropy in the Sr_14Cu_24O_41 and La_6Ca_8Cu_24O_41 compounds. We
point out that the experimental results of polarized Raman measurements at
arbitrary angles with respect to the crystal axes have to be corrected for the
light ellipticity induced inside the optically anisotropic crystals. We refer
quantitatively to the case of Sr_14Cu_24O_41 and discuss potential implications
for spectroscopic studies in other materials with strong anisotropy.Comment: To be published as a Comment in Phys. Rev.
Dedicated front-end electronics for the next generation of linear collider electromagnetic calorimeter
This paper describes an R&D electronic program for the next generation of
linear collider electromagnetic calorimeter. After a brief presentation of the
requirements, a global scheme of the electronics is given. Then, we describe
the three different building blocks developed in 0.35\mum CMOS technology: an
amplifier, a comparator and finally the pipelined AD
On the Representation Theory of Orthofermions and Orthosupersymmetric Realization of Parasupersymmetry and Fractional Supersymmetry
We construct a canonical irreducible representation for the orthofermion
algebra of arbitrary order, and show that every representation decomposes into
irreducible representations that are isomorphic to either the canonical
representation or the trivial representation. We use these results to show that
every orthosupersymmetric system of order has a parasupersymmetry of order
and a fractional supersymmetry of order .Comment: 13 pages, to appear in J. Phys. A: Math. Ge
