La definición de la situación

The author explains that communicative definition of human situations is a chief factor in their respective development. The analysis of situations in social groups, communities and family forms must account for the phaenomenon in which the definition of the situation by these social groups will construct the reality they will live in. A legendary text of sociology, social psychology and socialconstructivism.El autor establece que la definicion comunicativa de las situaciones humanas es un factor clave de desarrollo de las mismas. El analisis de las situaciones dentro de los grupos sociales, de las comunidades y formas familiares, debe contar con el fenomeno segun el cual segun sea la definición de la situacion dada por esos grupos humanos, asi estara condicionada la realidad que dichos grupos vivan. Texto legendario del dominio de la sociologia, psicología social y social-constructivismo

Chiral Transition of SU(4) Gauge Theory with Fermions in Multiple Representations

We report preliminary results on the finite temperature behavior of SU(4) gauge theory with dynamical quarks in both the fundamental and two-index antisymmetric representations. This system is a candidate to present scale separation behavior, where fermions in different representations condense at different temperature or coupling scales. Our simulations, however, reveal a single finite-temperature phase transition at which both representations deconfine and exhibit chiral restoration. It appears to be strongly first order. We compare our results to previous single-representation simulations. We also describe a Pisarski-Wilczek stability analysis, which suggests that the transition should be first order.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures.

Weeding One STEPP at a Time

Joyner Library recently had to make space for a new campus partner. To do so we focused our activity on print journals. We created a set of rules guiding our deselection, storage, and retention decisions

Techniques for sensing methanol concentration in aqueous environments

An analyte concentration sensor that is capable of fast and reliable sensing of analyte concentration in aqueous environments with high concentrations of the analyte. Preferably, the present invention is a methanol concentration sensor device coupled to a fuel metering control system for use in a liquid direct-feed fuel cell

Power generation in fuel cells using liquid methanol and hydrogen peroxide

The invention is directed to an encapsulated fuel cell including a methanol source that feeds liquid methanol (CH.sub.3 OH) to an anode. The anode is electrical communication with a load that provides electrical power. The fuel cell also includes a hydrogen peroxide source that feeds liquid hydrogen peroxide (H.sub.2 O.sub.2) to the cathode. The cathode is also in communication with the electrical load. The anode and cathode are in contact with and separated by a proton-conducting polymer electrolyte membrane
