    Estudaram-se os valores de glicose plasmática, proteína total sérica e íons séricos (cálcio, potássio, magnésio, sódio e cloreto) em jovens de Colossomoma macropomum Cuvier 1818, Piaractus mesopotamicus Holmberg 1887 e híbrido tambacu (P. mesopotamicus x C. macropomum), mantidos em cultivo intensivo. As concentrações plasmáticas de glicose no híbrido tambacu foram maiores que em P. mesopotamicus e C. macropomum. Os níveis de proteínas totais em P. mesopotamicus foram maiores em C. macropomum e híbrido tambacu. O C. macropomum apresentou maior concentração de sódio e cloreto, ao passo que o P. mesopotamicus mostrou maior concentração de potássio e magnésio. Porém, os níveis de cálcio mostraram-se similares nas três espécies estudadas. O híbrido tambacu apresentou os menores níveis de proteínas totais e níveis intermediários de potássio, sódio, magnésio e cloreto quando comparado ao P. mesopotamicus e C. macropomum. Foram estabelecidos valores basais para peixes sadios criados em cativeiro, os quais poderão ser usados em estudos de comparação futura em populações selvagens de P. mesopotamicus e C. macropomum

    Pair creation of higher dimensional black holes on a de Sitter background

    Full text link
    We study in detail the quantum process in which a pair of black holes is created in a higher D-dimensional de Sitter (dS) background. The energy to materialize and accelerate the pair comes from the positive cosmological constant. The instantons that describe the process are obtained from the Tangherlini black hole solutions. Our pair creation rates reduce to the pair creation rate for Reissner-Nordstrom-dS solutions when D=4. Pair creation of black holes in the dS background becomes less suppressed when the dimension of the spacetime increases. The dS space is the only background in which we can discuss analytically the pair creation process of higher dimensional black holes, since the C-metric and the Ernst solutions, that describe respectively a pair accelerated by a string and by an electromagnetic field, are not know yet in a higher dimensional spacetime.Comment: 10 pages; 1 figure included; RexTeX4. v2: References added.

    Improving the Knowledge on Seismogenic Sources in the Lower Tagus Valley for Seismic Hazard Purposes

    The Lower Tagus Valley, that includes the metropolitan area of Lisbon, has been struck by several earthquakes which produced significant material damage and loss of lives. Their exact location remains unknown. Our goal is to shed some light into the seismogenic sources in the area using seismic reflection and geological data. In areas with no seismic coverage, potential-field data interpretation was carried out. Seismicity was overlaid to the potential seismogenic structures and high-resolution data was acquired in order to confirm which structures have been active into the Quaternary. Three major fault-zones affecting the Neogene were identified: V. F. Xira, Samora-Alcochete and Pinhal Novo. For the first fault, strong evidences suggest it is active. The other two fault-zones and other structures previously unknown can be correlated with several epicentres. Empirical relationships between maximum moment magnitude and fault area indicate that MW > 6.5 earthquakes can be expected for the larger structures
