Hubbard-model description of the high-energy spin-spectral-weight distribution in La(2)CuO(4)
The spectral-weight distribution in recent neutron scattering experiments on
the parent compound LaCuO (LCO), which are limited in energy range to
about 450\,meV, is studied in the framework of the Hubbard model on the square
lattice with effective nearest-neighbor transfer integral and on-site
repulsion . Our study combines a number of numerical and theoretical
approaches, including, in addition to standard treatments, density matrix
renormalization group calculations for Hubbard cylinders and a suitable spinon
approach for the spin excitations. Our results confirm that the
magnitude suitable to LCO corresponds to intermediate values smaller than
the bandwidth , which we estimate to be eV for
. This confirms the unsuitability of the conventional linear
spin-wave theory. Our theoretical studies provide evidence for the occurrence
of ground-state d-wave spinon pairing in the half-filled Hubbard model on the
square lattice. This pairing applies only to the rotated-electron spin degrees
of freedom, but it could play a role in a possible electron d-wave pairing
formation upon hole doping. We find that the higher-energy spin spectral weight
extends to about 566 meV and is located at and near the momentum .
The continuum weight energy-integrated intensity vanishes or is extremely small
at momentum . This behavior of this intensity is consistent with that
of the spin waves observed in recent high-energy neutron scattering
experiments, which are damped at the momentum . We suggest that future
LCO neutron scattering experiments scan the energies between 450 meV and 566
meV and momenta around .Comment: 23 pages, 5 figure

Ultraviolet and Infrared Divergences in Implicit Regularization: a Consistent Approach
Implicit Regularization is a 4-dimensional regularization initially conceived
to treat ultraviolet divergences. It has been successfully tested in several
instances in the literature, more specifically in those where Dimensional
Regularization does not apply. In the present contribution we extend the method
to handle infrared divergences as well. We show that the essential steps which
rendered Implicit Regularization adequate in the case of ultraviolet
divergences have their counterpart for infrared ones. Moreover we show that a
new scale appears, typically an infrared scale which is completely independent
of the ultraviolet one. Examples are given.Comment: 9 pages, version to appear in Mod. Phys. Lett.
Análise comparativa da postura ortostática entre mulheres fisicamente activas e sedentárias
Foi objectivo deste trabalho comparar a postura ortostática entre mulheres fisicamente
activas e sedentárias. Foram estudados 60 sujeitos do sexo feminino, saudáveis e não grávidas.
Trinta mulheres incluíram o grupo das fisicamente activas (GFA) e outras trinta no grupo das
sedentárias (GS). Os sujeitos foram fotografados nos planos sagital direito e esquerdo, frontal
anterior e posterior na posição ortostática, com uma câmara digital com uma resolução fotográfica
de 10.1 Megapixéis (Exilim, EX-Z29, Casio, Tóquio, Japão). A avaliação postural foi efectuada com
recurso a uma técnica fotogramétrica e utilizando um software específico (SAPo, v. 0.86,
Universidade de São Paulo, Brasil). Os ângulos Q dos membros inferiores direito e esquerdo foram
superiores no GFA do que no GS. A assimetria das omoplatas relativamente à T3 apresentou
valores médios superiores no GFA do que no GS. Os alinhamento horizontal da cabeça foi
superiores no GFA do que no GS. O alinhamento vertical do corpo foi inferior no GFA do que no
GS. Em síntese, o GFA tende apresentar uma postura ortostática que procura promover uma
quantidade inferior de esforço e/ou de sobrecarga mecânica sobre o aparelho locomotor do que o
GS
Basketball game-related statistics that discriminate between teams season-long success
The aim of the present study was to identify the game-related statistics that discriminate between season-long successful and unsuccessful basketball teams participating in the Spanish Basketball League (LEB1). The sample included all 145 average records per season from the 870 games played between the 2000-2001 and the 2005-2006 regular seasons. The following game-related statistics were gathered from the official box scores of the Spanish Basketball Federation: 2- and 3-point field-goal attempts (both successful and unsuccessful), free-throws (both successful and unsuccessful), defensive and offensive rebounds, assists, steals, turnovers, blocks (both made and received), and fouls (both committed and received). To control for season variability, all results were normalized to minutes played each season and then converted to z-scores. The results allowed discrimination between best and worst teams' performances through the following game-related statistics: assists (SC=0.47), steals (SC=0.34), and blocks (SC=0.30). The function obtained correctly classified 82.4% of the cases. In conclusion, season-long performance may be supported by players' and teams' passing skills and defensive preparation
