    Enhancing the Educational Potential of Sports System

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to analyze the management methods that are effec- tively able to exploit the enormous potential of the sports system To date, the economic characteristics of the sports sector are very clear, but action strategies and management dynamics cannot neglect in any way the educational components able to support the sustainable development of today’s society. In this regard, we propose a management approach that, by relying on cul- tural, educational, inclusive and social values of sport, can stimulate the growth of community from the perspective of education and training

    Tritium Minority Heating with Mode Conversion of Fast Waves

    No full text
    A new ion heating scenario in tokamak plasmas, based on cyclotron damping of ion Bernstein waves (IBW) by Tritium minority at the first cyclotron harmonic, is discussed in a theoretical framework. The IBW are coupled by mode conversion of fast magnetosonic waves in a D(H) plasma. The mode conversion layer is located near the center of the plasma column provided the D/H density ratio approaches unity, and close to the resonant layer of the Tritium minority. A specific scenario for the JET tokamak, has been analyzed by the code TORIC. As a result, efficient heating of the Tritium minority is expected. © 2008 American Institute of Physics

    Let n >= 3 and let F be a field of characteristic 2. Let DSp(2n, F) denote the dual polar space associated with the building of type C-n over F and let g(n-2) denote the (n - 2)-Grassmannian of type C-n. Using the bijective correspondence between the points of g(n-2) and the quads of DSp(2n, F), we construct a full projective embedding Of g(n-2) into the nucleus of the Grassmann embedding of DSp(2n. F). This generalizes a result of an earlier paper [1. Cardinali, G. Lunardon, A geometric description of the spin-embedding of symplectic dual polar spaces of rank 3, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A (in press)] which contains an alternative proof of this fact in the case when n = 3 and F is finite. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
