Integración e interculturalidad en el medio escolar riojano. Un análisis exploratorio

La investigación aborda la integración escolar de los niños inmigrantes, en especial de los magrebíes, en el medio escolar riojano. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo de carácter exploratorio en el que se analizan las percepciones de los alumnos, padres y profesores acerca de la diversidad e integración en las aulas, así como los factores que condicionan o explican el ejercicio de la libertad de elección de centro escolar por los inmigrantes. Los procedimientos de recogida de información empleados han sido las técnicas grupales (la entrevista semiestructurada y los grupos de discusión), aplicadas a un mismo momento temporal (cursos académicos 2002-2003 y 2003-2004) y sometidas a un análisis interdisciplinar: jurídico, sociológico y pedagógico

A Mechanism for Ferrimagnetism and Incommensurability in One-Dimensional Systems

A mechanism for ferrimagnetism in (1+1)-dimensions is discussed. The ferrimagnetism is cased by interactions described by operators with non-zero conformal spin. Such interactions appear in such problems as the problem of tunneling between Luttinger liquids and the problem of frustrated spin ladder. I present exact solutions for a representative class of models containing such interactions together with a simple mean field analysis. It is shown that the interactions (i) dynamically generate static oscillations with a wave vector dependent on the coupling constant, (ii) give rise to a finite magnetic moment at $T = 0$ accompanied by the soft mode with a non-relativistic ({\it ferromagnetic}) dispersion $E \sim k^2$, (iii) generate massive (roton) modes.Comment: replaced by the extended version, references adde

Multiflavor Correlation Functions in non-Abelian Gauge Theories at Finite Density in two dimensions

We compute vacuum expectation values of products of fermion bilinears for two-dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics at finite flavored fermion densities. We introduce the chemical potential as an external charge distribution within the path-integral approach and carefully analyse the contribution of different topological sectors to fermion correlators. We show the existence of chiral condensates exhibiting an oscillatory inhomogeneous behavior as a function of a chemical potential matrix. This result is exact and goes in the same direction as the behavior found in QCD_4 within the large N approximation.Comment: 28 pages Latex (3 pages added and other minor changes) to appear in Phys.Rev.

Effective String Theory of Vortices and Regge Trajectories

Starting from a field theory containing classical vortex solutions, we obtain an effective string theory of these vortices as a path integral over the two transverse degrees of freedom of the string. We carry out a semiclassical expansion of this effective theory, and use it to obtain corrections to Regge trajectories due to string fluctuations.Comment: 27 pages, revtex, 3 figures, corrected an error with the cutoff in appendix E (was previously D), added more discussion of Fig. 3, moved some material in section 9 to a new appendi

Low-Temperature Thermodynamics of A2(2)A^{(2)}_2 and su(3)-invariant Spin Chains

We formulate the thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equations for the closed (periodic boundary conditions) $A^{(2)}_2$ quantum spin chain in an external magnetic field, in the (noncritical) regime where the anisotropy parameter $\eta$ is real. In the limit $\eta \to 0$, we recover the TBA equations of the antiferromagnetic su(3)-invariant chain in the fundamental representation. We solve these equations for low temperature and small field, and calculate the specific heat and magnetic susceptibility.Comment: 31 pages, UMTG-16

Lateral absorption measurements of InAs/GaAs quantum dots stacks: Potential as intermediate band material for high efficiency solar cells

Prototypes based on InAs/GaAs QDs have been manufactured in order to realize the theoretically predicted high efficiency intermediate band solar cells (IBSCs). Unfortunately, until now, these prototypes have not yet demonstrated the expected increase in efficiency when compared with reference samples without IB material. One of the main arguments explaining this performance is the weak photon absorption in the QD-IB material, arising from a low density of QDs. In this work, we have analyzed the absorption coefficient of the IB material by developing a sample in an optical wave-guided configuration. This configuration allows us to illuminate the QDs laterally, increasing the path length for photon absorption. Using a multi-section metal contact device design, we were able to measure an absorption coefficient of ∼100 cm−1 around the band edge (∼1 eV ) defined by the transition in InAs/GaAs QD-IB materials. This figure, and its influence on the IBSC concept, is analyzed for this system
