Lifetimes of intruder states in 186Pb, 188Pb and 194Po
2008
Abstract Lifetimes of prolate intruder states in 186Pb and 188Pb and oblate intruder states in 194Po have been determined through recoil distance Doppler-shift lifetime measurements. Deformation parameters of | β 2 | = 0.29 ( 5 ) and | β 2 | = 0.17(3) have been extracted from experimental B ( E 2 ) values for the prolate and the oblate bands, respectively. The present study addresses the phenomenon of shape coexistence typical for the nuclei near Z = 82 and N = 104 , providing information on configuration mixing of intrinsic structures of the nuclei of interest. The results are compared with the available lifetime data and theoretical results for neutron-deficient Po, Pb, Hg and Pt nuclei. …
Expecting the unexpected: Quantifying the persistence of unexpected hypersurfaces
2021
If $X \subset \mathbb P^n$ is a reduced subscheme, we say that $X$ admits an unexpected hypersurface of degree $t$ for multiplicity $m$ if the imposition of having multiplicity $m$ at a general point $P$ fails to impose the expected number of conditions on the linear system of hypersurfaces of degree $t$ containing $X$. Conditions which either guarantee the occurrence of unexpected hypersurfaces, or which ensure that they cannot occur, are not well understand. We introduce new methods for studying unexpectedness, such as the use of generic initial ideals and partial elimination ideals to clarify when it can and when it cannot occur. We also exhibit algebraic and geometric properties of $X$ …
On stability of logarithmic tangent sheaves. Symmetric and generic determinants
2021
We prove stability of logarithmic tangent sheaves of singular hypersurfaces D of the projective space with constraints on the dimension and degree of the singularities of D. As main application, we prove that determinants and symmetric determinants have stable logarithmic tangent sheaves and we describe an open dense piece of the associated moduli space.
On cubic elliptic varieties
2013
Let X->P^(n-1) be an elliptic fibration obtained by resolving the indeterminacy of the projection of a cubic hypersurface Y of P^(n+1) from a line L not contained in Y. We prove that the Mordell-Weil group of the elliptic fibration is finite if and only if the Cox ring of X is finitely generated. We also provide a presentation of the Cox ring of X when it is finitely generated.
Cox ring of the generic fiber
2017
Abstract Given a surjective morphism π : X → Y of normal varieties satisfying some regularity hypotheses we prove how to recover a Cox ring of the generic fiber of π from the Cox ring of X. As a corollary we show that in some cases it is also possible to recover the Cox ring of a very general fiber, and finally we give an application in the case of the blowing-up of a toric fiber space.
(Table 1) Age determination of sediment profile SO90-41KL/63KA
2002
The 14C ages of planktonic foraminifers Globigerinoides sacculifer bracketing the Younger Dryas in a d18O record of Globigerinoides ruber from a laminated sediment core on the Pakistani continental margin suggest that surface reservoir ages in the Arabian Sea were in excess of 1000 years during the deglaciation. A least squares error fit of a detailed 14C chronology to the (atmospheric) tree ring record gave variable early Holocene reservoir ages between 780 and 1120 years, well above the prebomb value of 640 years. Mid-Holocene reservoir ages are less well constrained but were probably closer to the prebomb value. The method used to fit individual core sections to the tree ring record was …
(Table 2) Age determination of sediment core NIOP-C2_929
2007
In this study we present a sea surface temperature (SST) record from the western Arabian Sea for the last 20,000 years. We produced centennial-scale d18O and Mg/Ca SST time series of core NIOP929 with focus on the glacial-interglacial transition. The western Arabian Sea is influenced by the seasonal NE and SW monsoon wind systems. Lowest SSTs occur during the SW monsoon season because of upwelling of cold water, and highest SSTs can be found in the low-productivity intermonsoon season. The Mg/Ca-based temperature record reflects the integrated SST of the SW and NE monsoon seasons. The results show a glacial-interglacial SST difference of ~2°C, which is corroborated by findings from other Ar…
Abelian varieties and theta functions associated to compact Riemannian manifolds; constructions inspired by superstring theory
2012
We look into a construction of principal abelian varieties attached to certain spin manifolds, due to Witten and Moore-Witten around 2000 and try to place it in a broader framework. This is related to Weil intermediate Jacobians but it also suggests to associate abelian varieties to polarized even weight Hodge structures. The latter construction can also be explained in terms of algebraic groups which might be useful from the point of view of Tannakian categories. The constructions depend on moduli much as in Teichm\"uller theory although the period maps in general are only real analytic. One of the nice features is how the index for certain differential operators canonically associated to …
Estudio de los mecanismos de resistencia a glifosato en dos biotipos de lolium spp.
2008
The aim of this study was to analyse the glyphosate resistance mechanisms in Lolium multiflorum and Lolium rigidum. Both these species were collected in Spain, the former in Andalusia in olive grove crops and the latter in citrus plantations in Valencia. These were compared to a susceptible population of both species, which had never been treated with herbicides. Absorption-translocation, contact angle and retention assays were performed. The experiment design used was completely random with six replications. The study was performed as a consequence of data previously obtained for screening and dose-response trials, and which served to confirm the resistance of the resistant biotypes. Regar…
OCCUPATIONS DOMESTIQUE ET FUNÉRAIRE DE L'ÂGE DU FER À LAVAU (AUBE)
2007
Dieser Artikel stellt die Ergebnisse einer Rettungsgrabung (Inrap) vor, die in der Gemeinde Lavau im Departement Aube durchgeführt wurde. Zwei unterschiedliche Besiedlungen konnten klar identifi ziert werden : ein Teil eines Bauernhofs aus der späten Bronze-/ frühen Hallstattzeit sowie eine kleine Nekropole aus der Mittellatènezeit. Während der Bauernhof typisch für einen ländlichen Betrieb dieser Zeit ist, unterscheidet sich die Nekropole von dem, was man erwarten würde. Ihre Lage, ihre Organisation, sowie manche Bestattungsbräuche sind aussergewöhnlich.
