    Diffractive Physics with ALICE at the LHC: the control of quantum collisions

    No full text
    We report on the status of the construction and installation of a new detector in the forward region of the ALICE experiment at the LHC. This detector will allow the study of processes with gaps at larger rapidity than those presently covered. A setup of two stations called AD (stands for ALICE Diffractive) on the right and on the left of the interaction point enhances significantly the efficiency to study diffractive physics and photon induced processes

    The ALICE experiment at the LHC: a status review

    No full text
    ALICE is one of the big experiments at the LHC. It focuses on the study of heavy ion collisions at ultra-relativistic energies. Its main goal is to observe a transition of ordinary matter into a plasma of quarks and gluons. Here we review the status of the experiment just before data taking starts. Cosmic ray studies as well as the results of the past beam tests show the potential of the detector

Ramírez and P. Goloboff leg.; MACN 20094. Note: We have not re-examined the two male specimens from Salta Province assigned to N. atacama by Torres et al. (2015). However, the types of the new species described herein originate from 6.5 km SE of the locality reported in Torres et al. (2015), in the same river valley at a similar elevation. In addition, the procursus shown in Torres et al. (2015: fig. 4D) agrees well with the one shown in Figure 9C. Etymology: The species epithet poma (Spanish for ‘apple’) is taken from Pablo Neruda’s poem ‘Vírese’; noun in apposition. Description Male (holotype). Measurements: Total body length 1.44, carapace width 0.64. Distance PME–PME 80 µm; diameter PME 60 µm; distance PME–ALE 20 µm; distance AME–AME 15 µm; diameter AME 35 µm. Leg 1: 5.26 (1.45 + 0.20 + 1.43 + 1.53 + 0.65), tibia 2: 1.20, tibia 3: 1.00, tibia 4: 1.40; tibia 1 L/d: 20. Colour (in ethanol): Prosoma and legs pale ochre-yellow; with darker Y-mark on carapace; legs without dark rings; abdomen light grey. Body: Habitus as in Figure 1B. Ocular area barely raised. Carapace with indistinct thoracic groove. Clypeus unmodified, only at rim slightly sclerotized. Sternum wider than long (0.48/0.38), with pair of low anterior processes near coxae 1. Abdomen globular. Chelicerae: As in Figure 9G, H; with pair of short frontal apophyses slightly pointing downward and set with strong hairs, with wide, flattened tip pointed in lateral view (Fig. 11B–D); stridulatory files on pair of low lateral protrusions (Fig. 11B, C). Palps: In general, similar to N. colina (cf. Fig. 4); coxa unmodified; trochanter with indistinct ventral projection; femur cylindrical, slightly widened distally, proximally with indistinct retrolateral hump and prolateral stridulatory pick (modified hair), femur length/width: 1.91; patella short; tibia globular (length/ width: 1.15); procursus simple (Fig. 9A–C), distally slender, curved towards dorsal, divided into sclerotized dorsal and transparent ventral part; genital bulb with ventral apophysis short, slightly curved towards ventral; embolus partly membranous. Legs: Without spines and curved hairs; with vertical hairs in two rows (prolateral, retrolateral) on tibia 1 only; retrolateral trichobothrium of tibia 1 at 67%; prolateral trichobothrium absent on tibia 1; tarsus 1 with ~six to seven pseudosegments, only distally distinct. Variation (male): Tibia 1 in nine males from Salta (including holotype): 1.27–1.50 (mean 1.41); in male from Catamarca: 1.47; in male from La Rioja: 1.35. The chelicerae and palps of the male from Catamarca appear indistinguishable from those from Salta. Female: In general, similar to male but sternum without pair of anterior humps and tibiae with few vertical hairs. Tibia 1 in eight females: 1.30–1.50 (mean 1.42). Epigynum (Fig. 10A) anterior plate rectangular, posterior margin indented; posterior plate wide but short. Internal genitalia (Figs 9I, 10B–D) with median cylindrical ‘receptacle’ and median sclerite. Distribution: Known from several localities in Salta Province, Argentina, and from one locality each in Catamarca and La Rioja (Fig. 3). Natural history: At the type locality (Fig. 45B), the spiders were found by turning large rocks. At disturbance they started to run over the rock surface but did not drop to the ground. They shared the microhabitat with Chibchea araona (?). At Cabra Corral ‘site 3’, the spiders were found sitting on the undersides of large boulders, i.e. on the ceilings of small cave-like spaces under the rocks. At Cabra Corral ‘site 4’, the spiders were found under small stones on the floor of a small cave/shelter. Near Chumbicha, the single male specimen was found at the same locality as N. ola.Published as part of Huber, Bernhard A., Meng, Guanliang, Král, Jiří, Ávila Herrera, Ivalú M., Izquierdo, Matias A. & Carvalho, Leonardo S., 2023, High and dry: integrative taxonomy of the Andean spider genus Nerudia (Araneae: Pholcidae), pp. 534-591 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 198 on pages 546-550, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlac100, http://zenodo.org/record/798176

    La investigación turística mexicana indexada en Web of Science: un análisis bibliométrico y relacional

    This study aims to explore the characteristics of the Mexican scientific output on tourism indexed in Web of Science, using bibliometric and social network analysis of the papers published in journals specialized in tourism. The evolution of the output, the types of journals, the key authors, the most productive organizations, the international collaboration, the features of the co-authorship social network, the topics addressed, as well as the main cited and citing publications are studied. The results yielded a total of 430 papers, published in 49 journals, by 732 authors affiliated with 173 organizations from 24 countries. It is shown that Mexican tourism research has an appreciable and growing presence in the Web of Science database, although there is certain duality too: the most part of it is published in Spanish in Ibero-American journals indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index, while only a minority part is published in English in journals indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index, often through international collaborations, with a greater international scientific impact.El objetivo de estudio es explorar las características de la producción científica mexicana sobre turismo indexada en la base de datos Web of Science, a través de un análisis bibliométrico y de redes sociales de los artículos publicados en revistas especializadas en turismo entre 1994 y 2021. Se estudian la evolución de la producción, los tipos de revistas, los autores clave, las organizaciones más productivas, la colaboración internacional, los rasgos de la red social de coautoría, las temáticas abordadas, así como las citas recibidas y emitidas. Los resultados arrojaron un total de 430 artículos, publicados en 49 revistas, por 732 autores afiliados a 173 organizaciones de 24 países. Se pone de manifiesto que la investigación turística mexicana tiene una presencia apreciable y creciente en el Web of Science, aunque también una cierta dualidad: la mayor parte se publica en español en revistas iberoamericanas indexadas en el Emerging Sources Citation Index, mientras que solo una parte minoritaria se publica en inglés en revistas indexadas en el Social Sciences Citation Index, a menudo mediante colaboraciones internacionales, con un mayor impacto científico internacional

    Tres Thomae: Tomás Moro según Alonso de Villegas, Pedro de Ribadeneyra y Fernando de Herrera

    No full text
    En el presente trabajo se analizan tres esbozos biográficos sobre Tomás Moro escritos, respectivamente, por Alonso de Villegas, en la Tercera parte del Flos Sanctorum (1588); Pedro de Ribadeneyra, en la Historia ecclesiástica del scisma del reino de Inglaterra (1588-1595); y Fernando de Herrera, en su Tomás Moro (1592). En la primera parte del trabajo se identifican las fuentes que tuvieron a su alcance Villegas, Ribadeneyra y Herrera y, a continuación, se estudian individualmente las biografías de Tomás Moro de cada uno de ellos con la finalidad de dar cuenta de las notables diferencias que las separan. Como defendemos aquí, dichas diferencias se deben, en parte, a las distintas fuentes empleadas por estos escritores, pero también al tenso clima de controversia religiosa presente en la Europa de la segunda mitad del S. XVI

    Se determinaron los valores de Proteínas Totales, Albúmina y Globulinas en personas adultas en la ciudad de Cuenca-Ecuador en el año 2009-2010, las cuales fueron seleccionadas aleatoriamente. Se llevó a cabo en el Laboratorio Clínico del Centro de Diagnóstico de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas de la Universidad de Cuenca mediante un estudio descriptivo. Se estudió la muestra en 1000 casos. El valor promedio de proteínas totales es: 4,94 8,9 ± 0,01 g/dl; de albúmina es: 4,4 ± 0,009 g/dl; de globulinas es: 2,5 ± 0,015 g/dl; y del índice A/G es: 1,8 ± 0,011. La correlación entre proteínas con el sexo (p = 0,046) tiene significancia estadística y con la edad (p = 0,126), la talla (p = 0,061) y el peso (p = 0,329) no tiene significancia; entre albúmina con el sexo (p = 0,000), la edad (p = 0,006), el peso (p = 0,040) y la talla (p = 0,049) tiene significancia estadística; entre globulinas con el sexo (p = 0,067), la edad (p = 0,928), el peso (p = 0,776) y la talla (p = 0,244) no existe significancia estadística; entre el índice A/G con el sexo (p = 0,753), la edad (p = 0,305), el peso (p = 0,153) y la talla (p = 0,775) no existe significancia estadística. Se concluye que los rangos referenciales del proteinograma no se diferencian significativamente de los utilizados en nuestro medio en especial en el Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso y el Hospital José Carrasco Arteaga.AUThere decided the values of Total Proteins, Albumen and Globulins in adult persons in the city of Cuenca - Ecuador in the year 2009-2010, which were selected randomy. It was carried out in the Clinical Laboratory of the Center of Diagnosis of the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the University of Cuenca by means of a descriptive study. The sample was studied in 1000 cases. The average value of total proteins is: 4,94 - 8,9 ± 0,01 g/dl; of albumen it is: 4,4 ± 0,009 g/dl; of globulins it is: 2,5 ± 0,015 g/dl; and of the index A/G it is: 1,8 ± 0,011. The correlation between proteins with the sex (p = 0,046) has significancia statistics and with the age (p = 0,126), the height (p = 0,061) and the weight (p = 0,329) does not have significancia; between albumen with the sex (p = 0,000), the age (p = 0,006), the weight (p = 0,040) and the height (p = 0,049) has significancia statistics; between globulins with the sex (p = 0,067), the age (p = 0,928), the weight (p = 0,776) and the height (p = 0,244) does not exist significancia statistics; between the index A/G with the sex (p = 0,753), the age (p = 0,305), the weight (p = 0,153) and the height (p = 0,775) does not exist significancia statistics. One concludes that the referential ranges of the proteinograma do not differentiate significantly from the used ones in our way especially in the Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso and the Hospital Jose Carrasco Arteaga. Key words: Deficiency of Proteins, Albumen Sérica, Globulins, Values of Reference, Technologies and Laborator procedures.Licenciado en Laboratorio ClínicoCuenc
