    1. Pyramica amrishi Makhan, 2007: 1, figs 1, 2. Holotype and paratype workers, SURINAME: Kasikasima, 27.iii. 1996 (D. Makhan) [not in USPS]. New junior synonym of Octostruma balzani (Emery, 1894). Comment. The author has managed to place this species in the wrong genus and tribe. The photographs are infuriatingly fuzzy but the head shape and distribution of the setae that are visible makes it almost certain that the " new species " amrishi is really one of the commonest and most widely distributed of Neotropical basicerotine ants, Octostruma balzani. Octostruma balzani has been previously collected from Dirkshoop, Sidoredjo, and Tambahredjo; eastern Suriname (Lely and Nassau Plateaus); and Nickerie District.

    Neutron fibres: a three-dimensional analysis of bending losses

    No full text
    © 2000 IOP Publishing Ltd. The author is grateful to Dr. W. M. Gibson (Center for X-ray Optics, State University of New York at Albany) for an interesting correspondence and comments regarding guided neutron beams, capillary optics and neutron fibres, and to Mr. Gabriel F. Calvo for some computational help when fitting the data. The constructive criticisms of the (anonymous) referees are acknowledged. This work is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Gustavo Torres-Cisneros.The confined propagation of slow neutrons along waveguides of a small cross section (fibres), discussed theoretically some time ago and demonstrated experimentally by other authors later, is analysed further. Motivated by those experiments, a three-dimensional quantum-mechanical treatment of the associated bending losses is presented. An approximate (two-parameter) formula is derived for the transmission coefficient Upsilon of the curved fibre, which displays its explicit dependence on the curvature radius Rcu, for 0<Rcu< + ∞. By adjusting one of the parameters (b), consistently with the theoretical analysis, and by fitting the other, the approximate formula describes all measured data for Upsilon. The parameter b (which accounts for the experimental data for Upsilon at large Rcu) allows the estimation of the number of effectively excited modes in the fibre.Depto. de ÓpticaFac. de Ciencias FísicasTRUEpu

    Dollarization and semi-dollarization in Ecuador

    No full text
    Over the 1980s and 1990s, GDP growth had stagnated because of oil export price volatility and natural disasters, the sacrifice of capital formation to heavy external public debt service, and incomplete and uneven structural reform. The exchange rate depreciation that proved continually necessary to sustain the net-export surplus and limit external debt accumulation induced Ecuadorians to dollarize spontaneously. The 1998 shocks affected real economic activity--hence bank loan portfolios, and widened the fiscal and current acccount deficits. The external imbalance led to exchange rate depreciation. Dollar-denominated bank loans whose borrowers lacked dollar income increasingly turned non-performing. At the same time, the depreciation swelled the locla currency value of dollar deposit liabilities. Many depositors, fearing that banks had become unsafe, withdrew, and over 1999 the Central Bank had to provide banks massive liquidity support. By year's end, the resulting monetary issue ledto the exchange rate collapse and incipient hyperinflation that forced the move to full dollarization. Ecuador's Central Bank will continue operating, using its foreign exchange holdings to carry out limited liquidity management and lender-of-last-resort activities. Ecuador's public accounts and banking system remain vulnerable to commodity-price and natural shocks. Exchange rate adjustment and monetary expansion are no longer available, however, to manage the external accounts, accommodate the public deficit, or assist failing banks. Further structural reform remains essential to assure fiscal discipline and banking system safety.Banks&Banking Reform,Economic Theory&Research,Payment Systems&Infrastructure,Environmental Economics&Policies,Public Sector Economics&Finance,Economic Theory&Research,Banks&Banking Reform,Environmental Economics&Policies,Public Sector Economics&Finance,Financial Intermediation

    La presencia morisca en la romería de la Virgen de la Cabeza en la obra El bautismo del príncipe de Marruecos de Lope de Vega

    No full text
    In the second act of the play El bautismo del príncipe de Marruecos, Lope de Vega depicts a vivid picture of the pilgrimage of the Virgen de la Cabeza in Andújar, one of the biggest religious events of 16th and 17th century Spain. In the Fénix’s representation some morisco figures appear. The article offers a reflection about a possible significance that the participation of the cristianos nuevos de moro gained within the scene drawn by the Spanish author in his drama
