Cosmological scenarios from multiquintessence

In this work we derive and analyse cosmological scenarios coming from multi-component scalar field models. We consider a direct sum of a sine-Gordon with a Z2 model, and also a combination of those with a BNRT model. Moreover, we work with a modified version of the BNRT model, which breaks the Z2 x Z2 symmetry of the original BNRT potential, coupled with the sine-Gordon and with the standard Z2 models. We show that our approach can be straightforwardly elevated to $N$ fields. All the computations are made analytically and some parameters restriction is put forward in order to get in touch with complete and realistic cosmological scenarios

Fungos associados a sementes de açaí: efeito da temperatura e do teor de água das sementes durante o armazenamento.

O trabalho teve como objetivo verificar os efeitos do teor de água e da temperatura do ambiente de armazenamento na incidência de fungos e na germinação de sementes de açaí (Euterpe oleracea Mart.). Foram utilizadas sementes da cultivar BRS Pará, com teores de água de 43%, 37%, 30%, 26%, 21% e 12%, que foram acondicionadas em sacos de polietileno, armazenadas sob temperaturas de 20 ºC, 15 ºC e 10 ºC, durante 360 dias e submetidas a avaliações bimensais do teor de água, da germinação e da incidência de Penicillium sp., Aspergillus sp., Fusarium solani e Fusarium verticillioides. Foi adotado o delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado com quatro repetições para o teste de germinação e cinco repetições para os testes de sanidade. Foi observada maior ocorrência de Penicillium sp., e Aspergillus sp em sementes com teores de água abaixo de 30% e mantidas nas temperaturas de 15 ºC e 20 ºC. Enquanto, as maiores incidências de fungos do gênero Fusarium foram encontradas em sementes armazenadas com graus de umidade de 43% e 37% e mantidas em temperatura de 10 ºC

Electrostatic self-force in (2+1)-dimensional cosmological gravity

Point sources in (2+1)-dimensional gravity are conical singularities that modify the global curvature of the space giving rise to self-interaction effects on classical fields. In this work we study the electrostatic self-interaction of a point charge in the presence of point masses in (2+1)-dimensional gravity with a cosmological constant.Comment: 9 pages, Late

The pasta phase within density dependent hadronic models

In the present paper we investigate the onset of the pasta phase with different parametrisations of the density dependent hadronic model and compare the results with one of the usual parametrisation of the non-linear Walecka model. The influence of the scalar-isovector virtual delta meson is shown. At zero temperature two different methods are used, one based on coexistent phases and the other on the Thomas-Fermi approximation. At finite temperature only the coexistence phases method is used. npe matter with fixed proton fractions and in beta-equilibrium are studied. We compare our results with restrictions imposed on the the values of the density and pressure at the inner edge of the crust, obtained from observations of the Vela pulsar and recent isospin diffusion data from heavy-ion reactions, and with predictions from spinodal calculations.Comment: 15 pages, 11 figures and 7 table
