A Comprehensive View of a Strongly Lensed Planck-Associated Submillimeter Galaxy

We present high-resolution maps of stars, dust, and molecular gas in a strongly lensed submillimeter galaxy (SMG) at z = 3.259. HATLAS J114637.9–001132 is selected from the Herschel-Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) as a strong lens candidate mainly based on its unusually high 500 μm flux density (~300 mJy). It is the only high-redshift Planck detection in the 130 deg^2 H-ATLAS Phase-I area. Keck Adaptive Optics images reveal a quadruply imaged galaxy in the K band while the Submillimeter Array and the Jansky Very Large Array show doubly imaged 880 μm and CO(1→0) sources, indicating differentiated distributions of the various components in the galaxy. In the source plane, the stars reside in three major kpc-scale clumps extended over ~1.6 kpc, the dust in a compact (~1 kpc) region ~3 kpc north of the stars, and the cold molecular gas in an extended (~7 kpc) disk ~5 kpc northeast of the stars. The emissions from the stars, dust, and gas are magnified by ~17, ~8, and ~7 times, respectively, by four lensing galaxies at z ~ 1. Intrinsically, the lensed galaxy is a warm (T_(dust) ~ 40-65 K), hyper-luminous (L_(IR) ~ 1.7 × 10^(13) L_☉; star formation rate (SFR) ~2000 M_☉ yr^(–1)), gas-rich (M_(gas)/M_(baryon) ~ 70%), young (M_(stellar)/SFR ~ 20 Myr), and short-lived (M_(gas)/SFR ~ 40 Myr) starburst. With physical properties similar to unlensed z > 2 SMGs, HATLAS J114637.9–001132 offers a detailed view of a typical SMG through a powerful cosmic microscope

Opening minds to Lean management in Nuclear Medicine

Nuclear Medicine (NM) is in constant technological evolution, challenging often professionals to be up to most recent standards and practices. In this sense, teaching NM should not be limited on the transmission of technical and scientific knowledge but also on opening minds to, for example, different management philosophies. Therefore, Nuclear Medicine students should be capable to change behaviours/practices and be concerned to search continuous improvement. To reach this standard, NM Department at our institution decided to implement the application of Lean Philosophy (management culture/philosophy focused on reducing various types of waste) in NM, in a process involving students, teachers and alumni.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Variabilidade genética de Phakopsora pachyrhizi avaliada por meio de marcadores microssatélites.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a variabilidade genética da ferrugem?asiática?da?soja no Brasil, com uso de marcadores microssatélites. Populações de esporos de Phakopsora pachyrhizi coletadas nas regiões Sul, Sudeste e Centro Oeste do país foram submetidas à análise de variabilidade genética, avaliada por meio de marcadores microssatélites específicos para o fungo. Foram coletadas, também, populações de fungo em diversas variedades de soja em uma mesma localidade, incluindo populações com lesão ?reddish?brown? (RB). Entre essas populações, não houve variabilidade. Tecidos com lesões RB não apresentaram esporos do fungo e não amplificaram com os marcadores específicos para P. pachyrhizi. A variabilidade genética entre as populações coletadas nas três regiões variou de 0 a 0,36. Observou-se tendência de agrupamento das populações da região Sul e Centro Oeste do Brasil em grupos diferentes. A existência de variabilidade genética em populações de P. pachyrhizi é um indicativo de que a resistência genética vertical, conferida por genes únicos, é uma estratégia de risco para os programas de melhoramento genético que visam a resistência à ferrugem?asiática?da?soja no Brasil

Experimental observation of two-dimensional fluctuation magnetization in the vicinity of T_c for low values of the magnetic field in deoxygenated YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}

We measured isofield magnetization curves as a function of temperature in two single crystal of deoxygenated YBaCuO with T_c = 52 and 41.5 K. Isofield MvsT were obtained for fields running from 0.05 to 4 kOe. The reversible region of the magnetization curves was analyzed in terms of a scaling proposed by Prange, but searching for the best exponent $\upsilon$. The scaling analysis carried out for each data sample set with $\upsilon$=0.669, which corresponds to the 3D-xy exponent, did not produced a collapsing of curves when applied to MvsT curves data obtained for the lowest fields. The resulting analysis for the Y123 crystal with T_c = 41.5 K, shows that lower field curves collapse over the entire reversible region following the Prange's scaling with $\upsilon$=1, suggesting a two-dimensional behavior. It is shown that the same data obeying the Prange's scaling with $\upsilon$=1 for crystal with T_c = 41.5 K, as well low field data for crystal with $T_c$ = 52 K, obey the known two-dimensional scaling law obtained in the lowest-Landau-level approximation.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

The Dressing Factor and Crossing Equations

We utilize the DHM integral representation for the BES dressing factor of the world-sheet S-matrix of the AdS_5xS^5 light-cone string theory, and the crossing equations to fix the principal branch of the dressing factor on the rapidity torus. The results obtained are further used, in conjunction with the fusion procedure, to determine the bound state dressing factor of the mirror theory. We convincingly demonstrate that the mirror bound state S-matrix found in this way does not depend on the internal structure of a bound state solution employed in the fusion procedure. This welcome feature is in perfect parallel to string theory, where the corresponding bound state S-matrix has no bearing on bound state constituent particles as well. The mirror bound state S-matrix we found provides the final missing piece in setting up the TBA equations for the AdS_5xS^5 mirror theory.Comment: LaTex, 48 pages, 10 figures; v2: a new section added where the dressing factor of the mirror theory is found; v3: formula (6.12) is corrected, a new figure is added, accepted for publication in J.Phys.

Probing star formation in the dense environments of z ~ 1 lensing haloes aligned with dusty star-forming galaxies detected with the South Pole Telescope

We probe star formation in the environments of massive (∼10^(13) M_⊙) dark matter haloes at redshifts of z ∼ 1. This star formation is linked to a submillimetre clustering signal which we detect in maps of the Planck High Frequency Instrument that are stacked at the positions of a sample of high redshift (z > 2) strongly lensed dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) selected from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) 2500 deg^2 survey. The clustering signal has submillimetre colours which are consistent with the mean redshift of the foreground lensing haloes (z ∼ 1). We report a mean excess of star formation rate (SFR) compared to the field, of (2700 ± 700) M_⊙ yr^(−1) from all galaxies contributing to this clustering signal within a radius of 3.5 arcmin from the SPT DSFGs. The magnitude of the Planck excess is in broad agreement with predictions of a current model of the cosmic infrared background. The model predicts that 80 per cent of the excess emission measured by Planck originates from galaxies lying in the neighbouring haloes of the lensing halo. Using Herschel maps of the same fields, we find a clear excess, relative to the field, of individual sources which contribute to the Planck excess. The mean excess SFR compared to the field is measured to be (370 ± 40) M_⊙ yr^(−1) per resolved, clustered source. Our findings suggest that the environments around these massive z ∼ 1 lensing haloes host intense star formation out to about 2 Mpc. The flux enhancement due to clustering should also be considered when measuring flux densities of galaxies in Planck data
