Victimization at school: relationship of parenting and functional-dysfunctional developmental variables
2015
El presente estudio tiene como principal objetivo analizar elpapel diferencial de la crianza (apoyo y comunicación versus control), devariables funcionales del desarrollo (empatía y mecanismos de afrontamientofuncionales) y las variables disfuncionales (inestabilidad emocional yafrontamiento improductivo) en la victimización ocurrida en el entorno escolar,o por el contrario, con el apego entre pares. Participaron en el estudio418 alumnos, 224 chicas y 194 chicos adolescentes, entre 13 y 14 años,escolarizados en los niveles de 3º y 4º curso de Educación SecundariaObligatoria. Para analizar estas relaciones se llevó a cabo un modelo deecuaciones estructurales EQS. Los resultados obtenidos mue…
Nucleation and Collapse of the Superconducting Phase in Type-I Superconducting Films
2005
The phase transition between the intermediate and normal states in type-I superconducting films is investigated using magneto-optical imaging. Magnetic hysteresis with different transition fields for collapse and nucleation of superconducting domains is found. This is accompanied by topological hysteresis characterized by the collapse of circular domains and the appearance of lamellar domains. Magnetic hysteresis is shown to arise from supercooled and superheated states. Domain-shape instability resulting from long-range magnetic interaction accounts well for topological hysteresis. Connection with similar effects in systems with long-range magnetic interactions is emphasized.
Effects of nonlinearity and substrate’s deformability on modulation instability in NKG equation
2017
International audience; This article investigates combined effects of nonlinearities and substrate's deformability on modulational instability. For that, we consider a lattice model based on the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with an on-site potential of deformable shape. Such a consideration enables to broaden the description of energy-localization mechanisms in various physical systems. We consider the strong-coupling limit and employ semi-discrete approximation to show that nonlinear wave modulations can be described by an extended nonlinear Schrodinger equation containing a fourth-order dispersion component. The stability of modulation of carrier waves is scrutinized and the following …
Constraining the p -Mode– g -Mode Tidal Instability with GW170817
2019
We analyze the impact of a proposed tidal instability coupling p modes and g modes within neutron stars on GW170817. This nonresonant instability transfers energy from the orbit of the binary to internal modes of the stars, accelerating the gravitational-wave driven inspiral. We model the impact of this instability on the phasing of the gravitational wave signal using three parameters per star: An overall amplitude, a saturation frequency, and a spectral index. Incorporating these additional parameters, we compute the Bayes factor (lnB!pgpg) comparing our p-g model to a standard one. We find that the observed signal is consistent with waveform models that neglect p-g effects, with lnB!pgpg=…
ALMA observations of Molecules in Supernova 1987A
2017
AbstractSupernova (SN) 1987A has provided a unique opportunity to study how SN ejecta evolve in 30 years time scale. We report our ALMA spectral observations of SN 1987A, taken in 2014, 2015 and 2016, with detections of CO, 28SiO, HCO+ and SO, with weaker lines of 29SiO.We find a dip in the SiO line profiles, suggesting that the ejecta morphology is likely elongated. The difference of the CO and SiO line profiles is consistent with hydrodynamic simulations, which show that Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities causes mixing of gas, with heavier elements much more disturbed, making more elongated structure.Using 28SiO and its isotopologues, Si isotope ratios were estimated for the first time in SN 1…
Study of a sample of faint Be stars in the exofield of CoRoT. II. Pulsation and outburst events: Time series analysis of photometric variations
2018
Context. The class of Be stars are the epitome of rapid rotators in the main sequence. These stars are privileged candidates for studying the incidence of rotation on the stellar internal structure and on non-radial pulsations. Pulsations are considered possible mechanisms to trigger mass-ejection phenomena required to build up the circumstellar disks of Be stars. Aims. Time series analyses of the light curves of 15 faint Be stars observed with the CoRoT satellite were performed to obtain the distribution of non-radial pulsation (NRP) frequencies in their power spectra at epochs with and without light outbursts and to discriminate pulsations from rotation-related photometric variations. Met…
Modulational instability in resonant optical fiber with higher-order dispersion effect
2010
International audience; The modulational instability (MI) of an electromagnetic wave in a resonant optical fiber with a two-level system is investigated. In the normal dispersion regime, we find the occurrence of nonconventional MI sidebands which are induced by the two-level resonant atoms. We also observe that the MI gain spectra are suppressed by the higher-order dispersion effect in the anomalous dispersion regime.
Modulational instability in fiber systems with periodic loss compensation and dispersion management
2003
In this paper we study modulational instability in a Kerr fiber taking into account the combined effects of periodic power variations and dispersion management. It is shown that periodic dispersion management and periodic amplification produce nonconventional MI sidebands which are essentially independent of each other. In addition, we show that the amplifier spontaneous emission noise tends to inhibit the growth of sidebands, for a sufficiently long propagation distance.
Dynamical bar-mode instability in spinning bosonic stars
2020
Spinning bosonic stars (SBSs) can form from the gravitational collapse of a dilute cloud of scalar/Proca particles with nonzero angular momentum, via gravitational cooling. The scalar stars are, however, transient due to a nonaxisymmetric instability which triggers the loss of angular momentum. By contrast, no such instability was observed for the fundamental ( m = 1 ) Proca stars. In [N. Sanchis-Gual et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 221101 (2019)] we tentatively related the different stability properties to the different toroidal/spheroidal morphology of the scalar/Proca models. Here, we continue this investigation, using three-dimensional numerical-relativity simulations of the Einstein-(mas…
