    Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (p. 53-59).In 2007 the local government of Rodrigues gazetted four marine reserves in the north of the island based on knowledge and insights from stakeholders, mainly from the fishing community. In order to verify the stakeholder-based design, a marine reserve network was designed using Marxan, a systematic conservation planning programme

    Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    No full text
    The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

    On Rastall gravity formulation as a f(R,Lm)f(R,\mathcal{L}_m) and a f(R,T)f(R,T) theory

    No full text
    Rastall introduced a stress-energy tensor whose divergence is proportional to the gradient of the Ricci scalar. This proposal leads to a change in the form of the field equations of General Relativity, but it preserves the number of degrees of freedom. Rastall's field equations can be either interpreted as GR with a redefined SET, or it can imply different physical consequences inside the matter sector. We investigate limits under which the Rastall field equations can be directly derived from an action, in particular from two f(R)f(R)-gravity extensions: f(R,Lm)f(R,\mathcal L_m) and f(R,T)f(R,T). We show that there are similarities between these theories, but the Rastall SET cannot be fully recovered from them, apart from certain particular cases here discussed. It is remarkable that a simple, covariant and invertible redefinition of the SET, as the one proposed by Rastall, is hard to be directly implemented in the action.Comment: 11 pages, accepted for publication in the European Physical Journal Plu

    Rodrigues parameters on dual hyperbolic unit sphere H20

    No full text
    Rodrigues parameters depend on the tangent of the half rotation angle in Euclidean space but in Dual space, dual Rodrigues parameters contain both rotation angle and distance corresponding the shortest distance between the straight lines in R-3. In this paper, we give Cayley's formula for the dual hyperbolic spherical motion and explain 3x3 type L-Dual skew symmetric matrices by using properties of this formula. Then, we obtain Rodrigues parameters of dual Hyperbolic unit sphere and show that Rodrigues parameters contain the hyperbolic rotation angle which is being between timelike lines and distance which is the minimal Lorentzian distance between the timelike lines of R-1(3)TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey)Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK)The first author would like to thank TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) for their financial supports during her PhD studies

    Nelson Rodrigues : a mulher em tres planos

    No full text
    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoO presente trabalho propõe uma re-leitura da obra teatral de Nelson Rodrigues, enfocando a "mulher" como elemento-chave de suas peças. A notória relevância atribuída pelo autor às personagens femininas, fazendo-as protagonistas da maioria de suas peças. Trata-se de uma visão nova (para a época) da sensibilidade feminina, num tratamento diferenciado da mulher, com suas mazelas e frustrações. A mulher tripartida interiormente, oscilando entre os planos da realidade, memória e alucinação, de acordo com os caminhos e descaminhos do desejo, à mercê das pressões sociais e familiares - é a representante do universo feminino da dramaturgia rodriguiana. Foram destacadas três personagens para um estudo mais detalhado. Das estruturas e linguagem da obra do autor foram extraídas as bases constitutivas dessas personagens. Três momentos distintos na criação do teatro do autor; três atos em cada uma das peças (a exceção de uma); três planos no palco de vestido de noiva e na divisão interna da complexa alma feminina. Uma proposta dramatúrgica voltada para os motivos intrínsecos da existência, como o amor, a morte, o desejo, o ódio e todas as situações limítrofes

Ozopores dark-brown, beginning at sixth segment. Scobinae beginning at seventh segment. Anterior gonopod (Figs. 16, 17).

Tibiotarsus lamellate, externally with small rounded salience, internally with sharp and projected apex. Female, paratype (Figs. 21, 22). As male except as noted. With 52 segments. Length 85. Width 7. Coloration as in male, except the lighter colored metazonites, which have a more orange-colored border. Labrum with 10 – 10 labral setae. Antennae with numerous sensory cones. Ocelli in seven rows in the following numeric order (dorsal to ventral): 7, 9, 9, 8, 6, 5, 3 right and 5, 7, 9, 7, 5, 4, 2 left. Ozopores beginning at sixth segment, first pore located below the line of others (on the left lacking pores from 13 to 16 segment). Scobinae beginning from seventh segment. Distribution: Known only from the type locality (Caçapava do Sul, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil).Published as part of Rodrigues, Patrícia E. S., Ott, Ricardo & Rodrigues, Everton N.
