Similar to that of B. trinodulata, except that the unpigmented regions of the pleon are larger on pleonite 1 (figure 32). Cephalothorax. Eyes with 24 ommatidia. Pereion. Tegument smooth and bright. Coxal plate VII has two noduli laterales (figure 49). Co-ordinates b /c and d/c of the noduli laterales (figure 47). Pleon. Narrows abruptly in relation to the pereion; neopleura well-developed on segments 3–5. Pleotelson triangular with straight margins, with a groove on the distal third and rounded apex, reaching halfway down the protopodite of the uropods. Appendages. Antennula tri-articulate, with the distal article having a series of nine aesthetascs at the distal half of the external margin and two apical aesthetascs (figure 33). Antenna when extended posteriorly, reaches the posterior margin of the fourth pereionite. Flagellum and fifth article of the peduncle of sub-equal length. Second flagellar article shorter than the other articles, which have similar lengths; apical organ one-third of the size of the distal article (figure 34). Mandible: similar to that of B. trinodulata, with two penicils on the incisor process and a tuft of at least ten plumose setae. Maxillula: medial endite with two apical penicils, no distal point; lateral endite with 4+6 teeth, five being pectinate (figure 37). Maxilla: external lobe with the distal-lateral margin narrowing; internal lobe covered with fine setae (figure 38). Maxilliped: endite with a long seta and two short teeth on the distal external margin, which has protuberances, dorsally bearing a short and robust seta (as in figure 10); apex of the palp with a tuft of short fine setae (figure 36). Pereiopods: with short tricorns on all articles and a hand-shaped apical seta on the carpus of pereiopod 1 (figure 43). Sexual differentiation: pereiopods 1–4 of the male with the carpus and merus bearing a set of fissured setae; ischium and merus of pereiopod 7 of the male of sub-equal length (figure 44); ischium of the females larger than the merus. Pleopods: exopod of pleopod 1 of the male cordiform, elongated (z: y ratio= 2.3), with a subapical dentiform expansion (figure 39); endopod with small apical spines (figure 40). Exopod of pleopod 2 distally elongated on the internal margin, carrying setae on the external margin; endopod distally tapered (figure 41). Exopod of pleopod 5 with four setae on the external lateral margin (figure 42). Uropod: insertion of the endopod and exopod at the same level; endopod exceeding half the length of the exopod (figure 35). Etymology The name refers to the region where this species occurs, the Brazilian Araucaria Forest. Remarks This species was collected on the Rio-Grandense Plateau (RS), at altitudes above 900 m. Benthana araucariana is similar to B. trinodulata because it has more than one nodulus lateralis on coxal plate VII, is of similar body colour, has similar antenna and uropods, has a similar number of aesthetascs on the antennula (9+2) and in having the insertion of the exopods and endopods of the uropods at similar levels. It can be differentiated by the elongated exopod of pleopod 1 of the male, two noduli laterales on coxal plate VII (three for the other species) and eyes with 24 ommatidia (20 in B. trinodulata).Published as part of Lopes, Paula Beatriz Araujo Elis Regina C., 2003, Three new species of Benthana Budde-Lund (Isopoda, ' Philosciidae') from Brazil, pp. 2425-2439 in Journal of Natural History 37 on pages 2433-243

The Chronicles of Fernão Lopes
No full textA “hidden gem” of European medieval historiography is now available in English. Fernão Lopes’s chronicles (c. 1380-c.1459) have remained relatively unknown to non-Portuguese speaking scholars until, at long last, a new edition has been published: LOPES, Fernão ‒ The Chronicles of Fernão Lopes. Eds. Amélia P. Hutchinson, Juliet Perkins, Philip Krummrich and Teresa Amado. Transl. R.C. Willis, Philip Krummrich, Juliet Perkins, Iona McCleery, Francisco Fernandes, and Shirley Clarke.

Uma combinação: a poeta Adília Lopes e a artista Armanda Duarte// A combination: the poet Adília Lopes and the artist Armanda Duarte
No full textResumo: A partir do texto “Uma exposição de Armanda Duarte” (LOPES, 2014, p.644), da poeta portuguesa Adília Lopes, podemos perceber uma relação de espelhamento midiático (MOSER, 2006, p.55) entre a poeta e a artista Armanda Duarte. Realizando uma espécie de écfrase curatorial, conceito elaborado recentemente por Lancman e Pereira, a poeta descreve as obras de arte de Duarte, realizando a transposição da exposição de arte contemporânea para o texto literário e, consequentemente, descreve também a sua poética, pois podemos identificar elementos em comum entre a produção da poeta e da artista.Palavras-chave: Adília Lopes; Armanda Duarte; espelhamento midiático; écfrase curatorial; arte contemporânea; poesia portuguesaAbstract: Starting from the text “Uma exposição de Armanda Duarte” (LOPES, 2014, p.644) from the portuguese poet Adília Lopes, we can notice that there is a “media mirroring” relation (MOSER, 2006, p.55) between the writer and the artist Armanda Duarte. Performing some kind of “curatorial ekphrasis”, a concept elaborated by Lancman and Pereira, the poet makes the transposition between the contemporary art exhibition and the literary text, in consequence, she also describing her poetry, because we can identify some common elements in both the poet’s and the artist’s productions.Keywords: Adília Lopes; Armanda Duarte; media mirroring; curatorial ekphrasis; contemporary art; portuguese poetr
Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
No full textThe 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

Final results of the LOPES radio interferometer for cosmic-ray air showers
No full textLOPES, the LOFAR prototype station, was an antenna array for cosmic-ray air showers operating from 2003 to 2013 within the KASCADE-Grande experiment. Meanwhile, the analysis is finished and the data of air-shower events measured by LOPES are available with open access in the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Center (KCDC). This article intends to provide a summary of the achievements, results, and lessons learned from LOPES. By digital, interferometric beamforming the detection of air showers became possible in the radio-loud environment of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). As a prototype experiment, LOPES tested several antenna types, array configurations and calibration techniques, and pioneered analysis methods for the reconstruction of the most important shower parameters, i.e., the arrival direction, the energy, and mass-dependent observables such as the position of the shower maximum. In addition to a review and update of previously published results, we also present new results based on end-to-end simulations including all known instrumental properties. For this, we applied the detector response to radio signals simulated with the CoREAS extension of CORSIKA, and analyzed them in the same way as measured data. Thus, we were able to study the detector performance more accurately than before, including some previously inaccessible features such as the impact of noise on the interferometric cross-correlation beam. These results led to several improvements, which are documented in this paper and can provide useful input for the design of future cosmic-ray experiments based on the digital radio-detection technique
