Integrate gender education in PhD curriculum studies: new pedagogical approaches.
Questions, aims & objectives: a mixed methods research. One of the most important mission of university is to incorporate the cultural and social changes in order to elaborate new reflections on didactics and research fields. The research is focused on how and why to integrate a gender education in PhD curriculum studies. The new idea has been listed among the priorities of intervention in the Horizon 2020

Tachyon warm inflationary universe model in the weak dissipative regime
Warm inflationary universe model in a tachyon field theory is studied in the
weak dissipative regime. We develop our model for an exponential potential and
the dissipation parameter =constant. We describe scalar and
tensor perturbations for this scenario.Comment: 9 pages, accepted by European Physical Journal
Chronic disease in physical education
Se realizó un estudio epidemiológico de carácter descriptivo-observacional de las enfermedades crónicas en las clases de Educación Física de Educación Secundaria y Bachillerato. Se realizó en 36 Centros Educativos de la Comunidad de Madrid (España), en 4.527 alumnos, durante el periodo 2003-2009. Se utilizó un cuestionario como técnicas de recogida de datos.
Se obtuvo que un elevado número de alumnos presentaron al menos una enfermedad crónica (53,19%), siendo alta la cantidad de alumnos que tienen varias (21,06%). Destacan por su prevalencia las alteraciones visuales y enfermedades del ojo (44,37%), las alergias (16,37%), las malposiciones dentales (8,61%), el asma (8,49%) y la escoliosis y cifoescoliosis (6,29%). Las patologías crónicas más importantes muestran un “patrón de prevalencia” que incluyen las enfermedades citadas.
Las enfermedades más frecuentes en la cronología estudiada son compatibles con la realización de la clase de Educación Física, pero pueden ser importantes en el desarrollo de ésta si se ignoran.An observational and descriptive study of the epidemiology of chronic diseases in Physical Education classes in secondary education was carried out. It was conducted in 36 educational centers of the Autonomous Community of Madrid (Spain), in 4527 students, from 2003 to 2009. A questionnaire was used as data collection techniques.
It revealed that a large number of students showed at least one chronic disease (53.19%) with a large amount of those suffering from multiple medical conditions (21.06%). The most prevalent illnesses include visual disturbances and eye diseases (44.37%), allergies (16.37%), misaligned teeth (8.61%), asthma (8.49%), scoliosis and kyphoscoliosis (6.29%). The most important chronic pathologies show a "prevalence pattern" which includes the previously mentioned diseases.
The most common diseases in the analyzed chronology are compatible with the performance of the Physical Education lesson, but they may undermine its development if ignored
Curvature of the universe and the dark energy potential
The flatness of an accelerating universe model (characterized by a dark
energy scalar field ) is mimicked from a curved model that is filled
with, apart from the cold dark matter component, a quintessencelike scalar
field . In this process, we characterize the original scalar potential
and the mimicked scalar potential associated to the scalar
fields and , respectively. The parameters of the original model are
fixed through the mimicked quantities that we relate to the present
astronomical data, such that the equation state parameter and the
dark energy density parameter .Comment: References 7 and 8 have been corrected: (7) Riess et al. 1998, AJ,

Inhomogeneous Kibble-Zurek mechanism: vortex nucleation during Bose-Einstein condensation
The Kibble-Zurek mechanism is applied to the spontaneous formation of
vortices in a harmonically trapped thermal gas following a temperature quench
through the critical value for Bose-Einstein condensation. While in the
homogeneous scenario vortex nucleation is always expected, we show that it can
be completely suppressed in the presence of the confinement potential, whenever
the speed of the spatial front undergoing condensation is lower than a
threshold velocity. Otherwise, the interplay between the geometry and causality
leads to different scaling laws for the density of vortices as a function of
the quench rate, as we also illustrate for the case of a toroidal trapping
potential.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
Detrimental effect of rutin on Anticarsia gemmatalis.
Behavioral and nutritional effect of rutin (quercetin 3-O-rutinosídeo) on Anticarsia gemmatalis Hübner (Lep.: Noctuidae), a major soybean defoliator in Brazil, was evaluated from the third instar to pupation. Rutin is one of the flavonol glycosides identified in the leaves of the wild soybean PI 227687. Larval weight and amount of ingested food decreased as rutin concentration in the diet increase. An interactive effect between feeding time and diet (treatment) was observed on insect growth; when larvae fed on pure-diet, feeding time elongation resulted in heavier pupae. Differently, the weight of larvae fed on rutin-diet remained almost stable, in spite of eating for longer. A. gemmatalis growth was negatively influenced by rutin-diet not only by feeding deterrence but also by post-ingestive effect on insect growth, since after adjustment of pupal weight by the amount of ingested food (covariate), the effect of diet remained significant. Rutin negatively influenced A. gemmatalis growth as result of pre-ingestive effect, indicated by reduction in food consumption, and post-ingestive effect, indicated by lower conversion of ingested food into body mass and food assimilation

Avaliação qualitativa e quantitativa da microbiota do solo e da fixação biológica do nitrogênio pela soja.
O objetivo deste trabalho foi definir, para as condições edafoclimáticas do Brasil, níveis aceitáveis de dispersão de alguns parâmetros biológicos, utilizados em estudos de impacto ambiental de novas tecnologias usadas na cultura da soja. Dois ensaios com soja convencional e transgênica foram conduzidos em 11 municípios de seis estados e no Distrito Federal; os parâmetros avaliados foram: carbono e nitrogênio da biomassa microbiana, respiração basal e quociente metabólico microbiano, eletroforese do DNA do solo em géis desnaturantes (DGGE), fixação biológica do nitrogênio, população de rizóbios, número e massa de nódulos secos, ocupação dos nódulos pelas estirpes de Bradyrhizobium, massa de matéria seca da parte aérea, nitrogênio total e nitrogênio como ureídos na parte aérea. A variabilidade temporal de: carbono e nitrogênio, da biomassa microbiana, da respiração basal e do quociente metabólico microbiano foi adequada, e o coeficiente de variação máximo aceitável foi estimado em 35%. A homogeneidade entre repetições, tratamentos e coletas foi confirmada por DGGE. Em solos pobres em nitrogênio, os parâmetros de massa de nódulos e massa da parte aérea, com coeficiente de variação máximo de 33 e 18%, respectivamente, foram adequados para avaliar a fixação biológica do N, que contribuiu com 72 a 88% do nitrogênio total da parte aérea
