2014
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave en inglés y español Se pretende realizar inferencias sobre el campo de la Evaluación de Programas Educativos (E.P.E.), sintetizando ciertos patrones relativos a la metodología de sus investigaciones. En concreto, sobre el paradigma de fundamentación epistemológica, la metodología de investigación específica, el modelo evaluativo empleado, las técnicas de muestreo, los instrumentos empleados para la recogida de información y las técnicas de análisis de datos, el diseños de investigación, las amenazas a su validez, los agentes evaluadores y otras características metodológicas consideradas. Para ello, se revisaron 208 trab…
Observation of Higgs boson production in association with a top quark pair at the LHC with the ATLAS detector

545. Un período fundamental para la climatología española: el “descubrimiento” de la circulación atmosférica en altitud, 1950-1980
2016
El período que transcurre entre los años 1950 y 1980 resulta decisivo para la consolidación de la climatología española. Los trabajos de una serie de geógrafos españoles (López Gómez, García Fernández, Gil Olcina, Burriel de Orueta, Albentosa Sánchez y Capel Molina) se convertirán en referencias básicas al presentar en nuestro país los avances sobre la circulación atmosférica en las capas altas de la troposfera que se desarrollan después de la 2a Guerra Mundial en Estados Unidos y otros países europeos. Este trabajo analiza el contexto científico en el que tiene lugar el “descubrimiento” de la circulación atmosférica en altitud por parte de la geografía española y su repercusión para la mej…
Comparison between simulated and observed LHC beam backgrounds in the ATLAS experiment at E beam =4 TeV
2018
Results of dedicated Monte Carlo simulations of beam-induced background (BIB) in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented and compared with data recorded in 2012. During normal physics operation this background arises mainly from scattering of the 4 TeV protons on residual gas in the beam pipe. Methods of reconstructing the BIB signals in the ATLAS detector, developed and implemented in the simulation chain based on the FLUKA Monte Carlo simulation package, are described. The interaction rates are determined from the residual gas pressure distribution in the LHC ring in order to set an absolute scale on the predicted rates of BIB so that they can be compared qua…
Search for weakly decaying b -flavored pentaquarks
2018
Investigations of the existence of pentaquark states containing a single $b$ (anti)quark decaying weakly into four specific final states J/$\psi K^+\pi^- p$, J/$\psi K^- \pi^- p$, J/$\psi K^- \pi^+ p$, and $J/\psi \phi (1020) p$ are reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0/fb in 7 and 8 TeV pp collisions acquired with the LHCb detector. Signals are not observed and upper limits are set on the product of the production cross section times branching fraction with respect to that of the $\Lambda_b$.
Specific distribution of cross-sectional area in each hamstring muscle of sprint runners and relationship between those and sprint performance
2018
The purpose of the present study was to examine characteristics of muscle anatomical cross-sectional area (CSA) for different regions from proximal to distal parts of each muscle of the hamstring muscles in high-level sprinters, and to examine the relationship with those and the sprint performance. The CSA of the semitendinosus (ST), semimembranosus (SM), biceps femoris long head (BFL) and biceps femoris short head (BFS) at the four different region of hamstring muscles for twenty sprinters (SPRINT) and twenty healthy male control subjects (CTRL) were measured by using B-mode ultrasonography. The measured regions were divided into four parts from proximal to distal parts (PRO1, PRO2, DIS2, …
Evaluation of biological properties of extracts obtained from marine biomass assisted by pulsed electric fields (PEF) and pressurized liquid extracti…
2022
Teniendo en cuenta el gran interés por la biodiversidad, los recursos marinos representan una fuente importante de compuestos de alto valor añadido como proteínas y péptidos bioactivos, lípidos y ácido grados vitaminas, minerales y compuestos bioactivos, etc. Los residuos y subproductos del pescado como cabeza, vísceras y piel, entre otros, se descartan o no se utilizan de manera efectiva durante el procesamiento de los alimentos, lo que resulta en un gran desperdicio de recursos, sin embargo, son una gran fuente de compuestos con alto valor añadido y que pueden tener un potencial uso considerable en las industrias alimentaria, farmacéutica, cosmética y otras, existiendo, por lo tanto, un i…
Factors Affecting Interspecific Aggression in a Year-Round Territorial Species, the Jewel Damselfish
2012
Vertebrates live in complex species networks in which interspecific interactions are common. In some contexts, the aggressive behaviours shown in these interspecific interactions are very similar to those shown in intraspecific interactions. It is still an open question whether intra- and interspecific aggression share common causality. We studied a year-round territorial species the jewel damselfish, (Plectroglyphidodon lacrymatus), which cultivate algae they feed on. Territory holders aggressively defend these algae that are an attractive resource for many other species. In this study, we recorded territorial aggression in free-living individuals and recorded aggressive responses to a sta…
DNA strand break induction, mutagenicity, and cytotoxicity of the mycotoxins 11-β-hydroxy-7-deoxy-rosenonolactone, rosenonolactone, and trichothecin.
1992
11-β-hydroxy-7-deoxy-rosenonolactone (TSS1), a mycotoxin of the rosenane class, was tested on cytotoxicity, induction of DNA single strand breaks and muta-genicity. Its effects were compared to those of rosenonolactone and trichothecin. TSS1 had stronger antibiotic activity againstEscherichia coli (EC 50: 10μg/mL) than rosenonolactone (EC 50: >200μg/mL) but weaker activity than trichothecin (EC 50: 3μg/mL). The same order of activity was found for the inhibition of yeast fermentation (EC 50 of TSS1: 45μg/mL; EC 50 of rosenonolactone: > 120μg/mL; EC 50 of trichothecin: 3.4μg/mL). In the trypan blue exclusion test using V79 Chinese hamster cells, TSS1 proved to be cytotoxic (EC50: 30μg/mL) at…
Life in the ice lane: the winter ecology of stream salmonids
2007
Despite the common view that conditions in winter strongly influence survival and population size of fish, the ecology of salmonids has not been as extensively studied in winter as in other seasons. In this paper, we review the latest studies on salmonid winter survival, habitat use, movement and biotic interactions as they relate to the prevailing physical and habitat conditions in rivers and streams. The majority of research conducted on the winter ecology of salmonids has been carried out in small rivers and streams, where temperatures are above zero and where there is no ice. Investigations in large rivers, regulated and dredged rivers, and under conditions of different ice formations a…
