Romanization of Funerary Rituals in Oretania: The Tomb 1 of the Cemetery of the Cerro de las Cabezas (Valdepeñas, Ciudad Real, Spain)
2017
La correcta aplicación de un procedimiento de prevención de impactos y protección al patrimonio arqueológico, desarrollado con motivo de la implantación de una línea eléctrica de alta tensión, permitió en 2013 el hallazgo de una necrópolis junto al Cerro de las Cabezas (Valdepeñas, Ciudad Real). Hasta el momento se desconocía la localización del área funeraria de este gran oppidum. Las catorce tumbas documentadas durante esta breve intervención (catorce días de trabajo) corresponden a los enterramientos de cremaciones en urnas, con piezas de ajuar asociadas como fusayolas, fíbulas, armas y recipientes cerámicos. Se presenta el estudio ceramológico de la Tumba 1; la única de entre las excava…
Arcadio Blasco: : Cinco esculturas urbanas (1986-1991)
2013
Con las primeras elecciones municipales democráticas en España después del franquismo, los nuevos ayuntamientos establecieron programas para reconstruir las ciudades españolas. Un aspecto de estos proyectos fue la creación de espacios públicos donde la gente pudiera encontrarse en un ambiente agradable. Estas áreas se cerraron al tránsito y se amueblaron con árboles, bancos y un nuevo tipo de esculturas artísticas. En la zona de Alicante, el ceramista Arcadio Blasco, ya conocido en Madrid y en Roma, creó cinco monumentos urbanos de gran escala. Después de veinte años, el destino de cada escultura ha sido diferente: alguna permanece en buenas condiciones, pero otras han sido tratadas de tal …
Ceramics from Samshvilde (Georgia): A pilot archaeometric study
2020
Abstract This archaeometric study deals with seven samples of prehistoric pottery and, for the first time in Georgian studies, thirteen samples of glazed medieval pottery. All specimens were collected at Samshvilde, the most remarkable archaeological complex in southern Georgia and believed to represent locally-manufactured products. Two additional samples of raw materials composed of clay, silt, and sand were collected near the site and used to compare composition. Several analytical techniques were applied: Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Electron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF). The results allowed to build a c…
Luminescence of silica glass containing aluminum oxide
2004
Abstract Optical properties of silica glass with different doping of Al 2 O 3 up to 1.5 mol% were studied. Alumina stimulates creation of a luminescence centers with specific band at 3.3 eV. A new band at 8.2 eV appears in luminescence excitation spectra. There is transport of energy to other luminescence centers associated with an impurity (Ag, Ce) at this energy. Alumina stimulates creation of E′ centers under γ-irradiation beside trapped hole on AlO 4 tetrahedron as well as creation of a silicon related oxygen deficient center (SiODC) under cathodoexcitation. Visually, the samples look inhomogeneous even after γ-irradiation. The explanation could be heterogeneity of the samples. Alumina …

A new manganese(III) oxamato dimer possesing an unprecedented Mn2(μ-O2CR)(μ-OH2⋯O2 CR) core has been synthesised, structurally and magnetically characterised, and used as a catalyst for the oxidation of alkanes to alcohols and ketones by ButO2H and O2 in CH2Cl2 at rt.
Recent advances in the synthesis of functionalised monofluorinated compounds.
2018
Over the past few years, we have tackled the synthesis of interesting monofluorinated organic molecules, such as: dihydronaphthalene derivatives, β-fluoro sulfones and related carbonyl compounds, fluorohydrins and allylic alcohols. Overall, a wide range of modern synthetic techniques are covered in this feature article including transition-metal, photo- and organocatalysis, nucleophilic and electrophilic fluorinations, chiral auxiliaries and enantioselective catalysis.
γ-Silylboronates in the chiral Brønsted acid-catalysed allylboration of aldehydes.
2014
The use of functionalised allylboronic esters in the catalytic enantioselective allylboration of aldehydes is described for the first time. γ-Silylallyl pinacolate derivatives give rise to α-silyl homoallylic alcohols in high yields, with complete diastereoselectivities and high enantioselectivities, in most of the cases. The usefulness of such intermediates is showcased by their transformation into fluorinated allylic alcohols.
Pyroxene-based glass-ceramics as glazes for floor tiles
2005
Abstract Crystallization of a glass with composition in the diopside primary crystallization field in the MgO–CaO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 quaternary system was investigated. Also the action of some additives, nucleants and fluxes, in the pyroxene development was examined. Glasses were prepared by conventional melting of a mixture of raw materials and cooled by pouring in water. Pellets of glass powder specimens were thermally treated at several temperatures up to 1200 °C. The crystallization path was followed by X-ray diffraction powder (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX). The results proved that, in addition to the effect of B 2 O 3 and TiO 2 in…
Gold catalyzed stereoselective tandem hydroamination–formal aza-Diels–Alder reaction of propargylic amino esters
2013
A gold-catalyzed tandem intramolecular hydroamination-formal aza-Diels-Alder reaction of propargylic amino esters is described. The overall process leads to the formation of a tetracyclic framework as a single diastereoisomer, with the creation of four bonds and five stereocenters.
Direct gravimetric sensing of GBL by a molecular recognition process in organic cage compounds.
2013
Organic cages were identified as highly potent affinity materials for the tracing of γ-butyrolactone. The selectivity over ethanol and water is based on the interior functional groups which allow preferential hydrogen bonding to the target analyte.
