Thermal entanglement witness for materials with variable local spin lengths
We show that the thermal entanglement in a spin system using only magnetic
susceptibility measurements is restricted to the insulator materials. We
develop a generalization of the thermal entanglement witness that allows us to
get information about the system entanglement with variable local spin lengths
that can be used experimentally in conductor or insulator materials. As an
application, we study thermal entanglement for the half-filled Hubbard model
for linear, square and cubic clusters. We note that it is the itinerancy of
electrons that favors the entanglement. Our results suggest a weak dependence
between entanglement and external spin freedom degrees.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Analytical Multi-kinks in smooth potentials
In this work we present an approach which can be systematically used to
construct nonlinear systems possessing analytical multi-kink profile
configurations. In contrast with previous approaches to the problem, we are
able to do it by using field potentials which are considerably smoother than
the ones of Doubly Quadratic family of potentials. This is done without losing
the capacity of writing exact analytical solutions. The resulting field
configurations can be applied to the study of problems from condensed matter to
brane world scenarios
Crystallization, data collection and data processing of maltose-binding protein (MalE) from the phytopathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri
Maltose-binding protein is the periplasmic component of the ABC transporter
responsible for the uptake of maltose/maltodextrins. The Xanthomonas axonopodis
pv. citri maltose-binding protein MalE has been crystallized at 293 Kusing
the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystal belonged to the
primitive hexagonal space group P6_122, with unit-cell parameters a = 123.59,
b = 123.59, c = 304.20 Å, and contained two molecules in the asymetric unit. It
diffracted to 2.24 Å resolution
Efeito do ácido indolbutírico no enraizamento adventício em estacas de cupuaçuzeiro
A estaquia é um dos processos mais importantes de propagação vegetativa, sendo que sua aplicação na multiplicação vegetativa de fruteiras tropicais, tal como o cupuaçuzeiro (Theobroma grandiflorum), constitui uma ferramenta importante na redução de custos da produção de mudas e possibilitar a rápida multiplicação de material elite. Neste sentido, considerando a escassez de informações e a necessidade do desenvolvimento desta técnica para a produção de mudas clonais de T. grandiflorum, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o efeito do ácido indolbutírico no enraizamento adventício de estacas de cupuaçuzeiro
Dark Sector from Interacting Canonical and Non-Canonical Scalar Fields
In this work it is investigated general models with interactions between two
canonical scalar fields and between one non-canonical (tachyon-type) and one
canonical scalar field. The potentials and couplings to the gravity are
selected through the Noether symmetry approach. These general models are
employed to describe interactions between dark energy and dark matter, with the
fields being constrained by the astronomical data. The cosmological solutions
of some cases are compared with the observed evolution of the late Universe.Comment: 20 pages, 13 figures, correction of misprints in eqs. (4), (5), (43),
