Arvejas ( Pisum sativum ) de vaina comestible sugar snap: antecedentes y comportamiento en el Sur de Chile

Sugar snap peas (Pisum sativum L.) are edible-podded peas that, unlike snow (Chinese) peas, have thick pod walls. They are the result of the combination of at least six recessive genes controlling pod and grain traits, and two others are being incorporated in modern cultivars. Sugar snap peas may be consumed fresh or frozen, and are highly appreciated in the United States and other countries. Six genotypes from the USA were evaluated at two locations in La Araucania Region in southern Chile in 2004 and 2005. Most sugar snap varieties showed yields similar to a freezable cultivar used as a check. Yield differences among sugar snap varieties were small and inconsistent; however, cv. Sweet Ann performed relatively well and showed the best freezing quality. Over 15 t ha-1 of pods were obtained under favorable conditions, suggesting that yields around 10 t ha-1 are quite achievable commercially. All varieties presented, at variable levels, suture on both dorsal and ventral sides of the pods. A mild frost (-2\ub0C), harmless to the plant, may also deteriorate the appearance of the pods. Sugar snap peas are a delicate produce and, if well managed, can be a sound option to diversify Chilean horticultural offer.Las arvejas (Pisum sativum L.) "sugar snap" son el resultado de la combinaci\uf3n de al menos seis genes recesivos que controlan caracter\uedsticas de la vaina y el grano, y otros dos genes se est\ue1n sumando en variedades modernas. Es un tipo de vaina comestible que, a diferencia de las "sinhilas", tiene vainas de paredes engrosadas. Pueden consumirse en estado fresco o congelado y han tenido gran aceptaci\uf3n en Norteam\ue9rica y otros pa\uedses. Seis genotipos provenientes de los Estados Unidos fueron evaluados en dos localidades de la Regi\uf3n de La Araucan\ueda, Chile, durante 2004 y 2005. La mayor\ueda de las variedades "sugar snap" dieron rendimientos similares a un cultivar para congelado utilizado como testigo. Las diferencias de rendimiento entre las variedades "sugar snap" fueron peque\uf1as y no consistentes, sin embargo, la variedad Sweet Ann se comport\uf3 relativamente bien y mostr\uf3 la mejor aptitud para congelado. Se obtuvieron rendimientos superiores a 15 t ha-1 de vaina bajo condiciones ambientales favorables, sugiriendo que es posible obtener 10 t ha-1 de vaina en producciones comerciales. Las vainas de las variedades evaluadas presentaron, en magnitud variable, haces de fibra en las suturas dorsal y ventral, que deben ser retirados antes del consumo. Una helada suave (alrededor de -2 \ub0C), inofensiva para las plantas, puede tambi\ue9n deteriorar la apariencia de las vainas. Las arvejas "sugar snap" son un producto delicado, y con un buen manejo podr\uedan diversificar la oferta hort\uedcola del pa\ueds

A study of CP violation in B-+/- -> DK +/- and B-+/- -> D pi(+/-) decays with D -> (KSK +/-)-K-0 pi(-/+) final states

A first study of CP violation in the decay modes $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\pm \pi^\mp]_D h^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\mp \pi^\pm]_D h^\pm$, where $h$ labels a $K$ or $\pi$ meson and $D$ labels a $D^0$ or $\overline{D}^0$ meson, is performed. The analysis uses the LHCb data set collected in $pp$ collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$. The analysis is sensitive to the CP-violating CKM phase $\gamma$ through seven observables: one charge asymmetry in each of the four modes and three ratios of the charge-integrated yields. The results are consistent with measurements of $\gamma$ using other decay modes

Observation of the B0 → ρ0ρ0 decay from an amplitude analysis of B0 → (π+π−)(π+π−) decays

Proton–proton collision data recorded in 2011 and 2012 by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb−1 , are analysed to search for the charmless B0→ρ0ρ0 decay. More than 600 B0→(π+π−)(π+π−) signal decays are selected and used to perform an amplitude analysis, under the assumption of no CP violation in the decay, from which the B0→ρ0ρ0 decay is observed for the first time with 7.1 standard deviations significance. The fraction of B0→ρ0ρ0 decays yielding a longitudinally polarised final state is measured to be fL=0.745−0.058+0.048(stat)±0.034(syst) . The B0→ρ0ρ0 branching fraction, using the B0→ϕK⁎(892)0 decay as reference, is also reported as B(B0→ρ0ρ0)=(0.94±0.17(stat)±0.09(syst)±0.06(BF))×10−6

An angular analysis of the $B^0 \rightarrow K^{*0} e^+ e^-$ decay is performed using a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 {\mbox{fb}^{-1}}, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV during 2011 and 2012. For the first time several observables are measured in the dielectron mass squared ($q^2$) interval between 0.002 and 1.120${\mathrm{\,Ge\kern -0.1em V^2\!/}c^4}$.

Precise measurements of the properties of the B-1(5721)(0,+) and B-2*(5747)(0,+) states and observation of B-+,B-0 pi(-,+) mass structures

Invariant mass distributions of $B^+\pi^-$ and $B^0\pi^+$ combinations are investigated in order to study excited B mesons. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to $3.0 fb^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data, recorded by the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. Precise measurements of the masses and widths of the $B_1(5721)^{0,+}$ and $B_2^*(5747)^{0,+}$ states are reported. Clear enhancements, particularly prominent at high pion transverse momentum, are seen over background in the mass range $5850$-$6000$ MeV in both $B^+\pi^-$ and $B^0\pi^+$ combinations.
