    Get PDF
    We study the fate of gravitational collapse of a tachyon field matter. In presence of an inverse square potential a black hole forms. Loop quantum corrections lead to the avoidance of classical singularities, which is followed by an outward flux of energy.Comment: Contribution to the conference of Loops'11, Madri

    Recurrent Coronal Jets Induced by Repetitively Accumulated Electric Currents

    Full text link
    Three extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) jets recurred in about one hour on 2010 September 17 in the following magnetic polarity of active region 11106. The EUV jets were observed by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) on board SDO measured the vector magnetic field, from which we derive the magnetic flux evolution, the photospheric velocity field, and the vertical electric current evolution. The magnetic configuration before the jets is derived by the nonlinear force-free field (NLFFF) extrapolation. We derive that the jets are above a pair of parasitic magnetic bipoles which are continuously driven by photospheric diverging flows. The interaction drove the build up of electric currents that we indeed observed as elongated patterns at the photospheric level. For the first time, the high temporal cadence of HMI allows to follow the evolution of such small currents. In the jet region, we found that the integrated absolute current peaks repetitively in phase with the 171 A flux evolution. The current build up and its decay are both fast, about 10 minutes each, and the current maximum precedes the 171 A by also about 10 minutes. Then, HMI temporal cadence is marginally fast enough to detect such changes. The photospheric current pattern of the jets is found associated to the quasi-separatrix layers deduced from the magnetic extrapolation. From previous theoretical results, the observed diverging flows are expected to build continuously such currents. We conclude that magnetic reconnection occurs periodically, in the current layer created between the emerging bipoles and the large scale active region field. It induced the observed recurrent coronal jets and the decrease of the vertical electric current magnitude.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication in A&

    Este comentario analiza el alcance de la sentencia del Tribunal Calificador de Elecciones sobre el recurso de queja interpuesto por el pacto electoral “Nueva Mayoría” en contra de la resolución de la Directora (s) del SERVEL ante la negativa de esta de inscribir dicho pacto para las elecciones primarias de Alcalde 2016. La sentencia además de concluir que el Servicio Electoral actuó erradamente al requerir la comparecencia personal de todos los presidentes y secretarios de los partidos políticos, se pronunció sobre la procedencia del recurso de queja ante las actuaciones de dicho Servicio y la sujeción del mismo, como parte de la Administración, al control judicial. El comentario también analiza la forma en que el Tribunal Calificador de Elecciones apreció la prueba en el caso

    Bayesian optimization for the inverse scattering problem in quantum reaction dynamics

    Full text link
    We propose a machine-learning approach based on Bayesian optimization to build global potential energy surfaces (PES) for reactive molecular systems using feedback from quantum scattering calculations. The method is designed to correct for the uncertainties of quantum chemistry calculations and yield potentials that reproduce accurately the reaction probabilities in a wide range of energies. These surfaces are obtained automatically and do not require manual fitting of the {\it ab initio} energies with analytical functions. The PES are built from a small number of {\it ab initio} points by an iterative process that incrementally samples the most relevant parts of the configuration space. Using the dynamical results of previous authors as targets, we show that such feedback loops produce accurate global PES with 30 {\it ab initio} energies for the three-dimensional H + H2_2 \rightarrow H2_2 + H reaction and 290 {\it ab initio} energies for the six-dimensional OH + H2_2 \rightarrow H2_2O + H reaction. These surfaces are obtained from 360 scattering calculations for H3_3 and 600 scattering calculations for OH3_3. We also introduce a method that quickly converges to an accurate PES without the {\it a priori} knowledge of the dynamical results. By construction, our method illustrates the lowest number of potential energy points (i.e. the minimum information) required for the non-parametric construction of global PES for quantum reactive scattering calculations.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure

    Constant of Motion for several one-dimensional systems and outlining the problem associated with getting their Hamiltonians

    Full text link
    The constants of motion of the following systems are deduced: a relativistic particle with linear dissipation, a no-relativistic particle with a time explicitly depending force, a no-relativistic particle with a constant force and time depending mass, and a relativistic particle under a conservative force with position depending mass. The problem of getting the Hamiltonian for these systems is determined by getting the velocity as an explicit function of position and generalized linear momentum, and this problem can be solved a first approximation for the first above system.Comment: 15 pages, Te

    TiO2 sintetizado por el método de precursor polimerico (Pechini): estructura de la resina intermedia

    Get PDF
    En este trabajo se ha utilizado el método de precursor polimérico (método de Pechini) para sintetizar dióxido de titanio, proceso que ha permitido tener un mayor control sobre la pureza del óxido y el tipo de fase que ha presentado el material obtenido, fase anatasa en el presente caso. Durante el proceso de síntesis se ha obtenido una resina que se ha caracterizado utilizando la espectroscopia de Resonancia Magnética Nuclear (RMN) y la espectroscopia infrarroja con transformada de Fourier (FTIR) para determinar su estructura y con base en ella se ha propuesto un modelo para la conformación de la misma. Posteriormente esta resina se ha sometido a un tratamiento térmico para obtener los polvos cerámicos que se han caracterizado empleando diferentes técnicas, principalmente, difracción de rayos X (DRX) y microscopia electrónica (MET y MEB). Los resultados indican que se puede obtener TiO2 fase anatasa a los 450ºC con un tamaño de partícula <100nm.Peer reviewe

    Twisting solar coronal jet launched at the boundary of an active region

    Full text link
    A broad jet was observed in a weak magnetic field area at the edge of active region NOAA 11106. The peculiar shape and magnetic environment of the broad jet raised the question of whether it was created by the same physical processes of previously studied jets with reconnection occurring high in the corona. We carried out a multi-wavelength analysis using the EUV images from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) and magnetic fields from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) both on-board the SDO satellite. The jet consisted of many different threads that expanded in around 10 minutes to about 100 Mm in length, with the bright features in later threads moving faster than in the early ones, reaching a maximum speed of about 200 km s^{-1}. Time-slice analysis revealed a striped pattern of dark and bright strands propagating along the jet, along with apparent damped oscillations across the jet. This is suggestive of a (un)twisting motion in the jet, possibly an Alfven wave. A topological analysis of an extrapolated field was performed. Bald patches in field lines, low-altitude flux ropes, diverging flow patterns, and a null point were identified at the basis of the jet. Unlike classical lambda or Eiffel-tower shaped jets that appear to be caused by reconnection in current sheets containing null points, reconnection in regions containing bald patches seems to be crucial in triggering the present jet. There is no observational evidence that the flux ropes detected in the topological analysis were actually being ejected themselves, as occurs in the violent phase of blowout jets; instead, the jet itself may have gained the twist of the flux rope(s) through reconnection. This event may represent a class of jets different from the classical quiescent or blowout jets, but to reach that conclusion, more observational and theoretical work is necessary.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, accepted for publication in A&
