In-beam spectroscopic study of $^{244}$Cf
2018
The ground-state rotational band of the neutron-deficient californium ( Z = 98 ) isotope 244 Cf was identified for the first time and measured up to a tentative spin and parity of I π = 20 + . The observation of the rotational band indicates that the nucleus is deformed. The kinematic and dynamic moments of inertia were deduced from the measured γ -ray transition energies. The behavior of the dynamic moment of inertia revealed an up-bend due to a possible alignment of coupled nucleons in high- j orbitals starting at a rotational frequency of about ℏ ω = 0.20 MeV . The results were compared with the systematic behavior of the even-even N = 146 isotones as well as with available theoretical c…
Carbon dynamics in highly heterotrophic subarctic thaw ponds
2015
Abstract. Global warming has accelerated the formation of permafrost thaw ponds in several subarctic and arctic regions. These ponds are net heterotrophic as evidenced by their greenhouse gas (GHG) supersaturation levels (CO2 and CH4), and generally receive large terrestrial carbon inputs from the thawing and eroding permafrost. We measured seasonal and vertical variations in the concentration and type of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in five subarctic thaw (thermokarst) ponds in northern Quebec, and explored how environmental gradients influenced heterotrophic and phototrophic biomass and productivity. Late winter DOM had low aromaticity indicating reduced inputs of terrestrial carbon, wh…
Llengua i espiritualitat en la Vita Christi d’Isabel de Villena
2015
Resum:La Vita Christi de sor Isabel de Villena es gestà en la dècada dels 60 del segle XV a partir dels tractats que l’abadessa del monestir de la Trinitat de València usava per a formar les seues monges i per a suscitar en elles la contemplació de Jesús a través dels ulls de Maria i de les dones que l’envoltaren. La comparació de la llengua i de l’estil del Tractat de la Passió i els de les edicions de 1497 i 1513 ha permès comprovar que aquells s’adaptaren a la sensibilitat religiosa i lingüística de cada moment. El llenguatge de l’abadessa, culte i popular alhora, no es deixà influir pel de Corella. Tanmateix, sor Aldonça de Montsoriu, l’editora de l’incunable, intentà 'vendre' l’«elegan…
Biology of the sauropod dinosaurs: the evolution of gigantism
2010
The herbivorous sauropod dinosaurs of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods were the largest terrestrial animals ever, surpassing the largest herbivorous mammals by an order of magnitude in body mass. Several evolutionary lineages among Sauropoda produced giants with body masses in excess of 50 metric tonnes by conservative estimates. With body mass increase driven by the selective advantages of large body size, animal lineages will increase in body size until they reach the limit determined by the interplay of bauplan, biology, and resource availability. There is no evidence, however, that resource availability and global physicochemical parameters were different enough in the Mesozoic to ha…

Separation of atomic and molecular ions by ion mobility with an RF carpet
2021
Gas-filled stopping cells are used at accelerator laboratories for the thermalization of high-energy radioactive ion beams. Common challenges of many stopping cells are a high molecular background of extracted ions and limitations of extraction efficiency due to space-charge effects. At the FRS Ion Catcher at GSI, a new technique for removal of ionized molecules prior to their extraction out of the stopping cell has been developed. This technique utilizes the RF carpet for the separation of atomic ions from molecular contaminant ions through their difference in ion mobility. Results from the successful implementation and test during an experiment with a 600~MeV/u $^{124}$Xe primary beam are…
El análisis marxista de las necesidades sociales
2018
The disappearance of the so-called «real socialism» has concealed the validity of the Marxist analysis of social reality. One of the sets of hypotheses that has best maintained its heuristic capacity is the Marxist theory of needs. The Marxist hypotheses have been developed in debate with other conventional conceptions. Currently, feminism and the ecological analysis of needs are renewing the views of Heller and Habermas.
The charm-quark contribution to light-by-light scattering in the muon (−2) from lattice QCD
2022
We compute the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon $g-2$ from the charm quark using lattice QCD. The calculation is performed on ensembles generated with dynamical $(u,d,s)$ quarks at the SU(3)$_{\rm f}$ symmetric point with degenerate pion and kaon masses of around 415 MeV. It includes the connected charm contribution, as well as the leading disconnected Wick contraction, involving the correlation between a charm and a light-quark loop. Cutoff effects turn out to be sizeable, which leads us to use lighter-than-physical charm masses, to employ a broad range of lattice spacings reaching down to 0.039 fm and to perform a combined charm-mass and continuum extrapolation.…
New Capabilities of the FLUKA Multi-Purpose Code

We would like to deeply thank the CERN Knowledge Transfer and Legal Service teams for their essential and extended support. Our appreciation also goes to the FLUKA.CERN Collaboration Board members for their strong commitment.
Factores de elección de universidad pública en la Comunidad Valenciana
2015
La tesis aborda dos grandes bloques de objetivos: el análisis de los factores de elección de universidad pública en la Comunidad Valenciana y la modelización de estos procesos de elección. Estos bloques de objetivos se dividen, a su vez, en áreas de investigación: por una parte el análisis de la motivación subyacente para emprender estudios universitarios, el análisis de los factores de elección de universidad y de titulación, las fuentes de información empleadas por las y los estudiantes y la influencia de terceras personas en este proceso, así como los motivos por los que el estudiante finalmente elige la universidad y la titulación en que fue admitido; por otra parte se persigue la model…
