Evidence for the associated production of a W boson and a top quark in ATLAS at √s = 7 TeV

2012

This Letter presents evidence for the associated production of a W boson and a top quark using 2.05 fb[superscript −1] of pp collision data at √s = 7 TeV accumulated with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The analysis is based on the selection of the dileptonic final states with events featuring two isolated leptons, electron or muon, with significant transverse missing momentum and at least one jet. An approach based on boosted decision trees has been developed to improve the discrimination of single top-quark Wt events from background. A template fit to the final classifier distributions is performed to determine the cross-section. The result is incompatible with the background-only hypothes…

Evaluation of different mechanical fruit harvesting systems and oil quality in very large size olive trees

2014

In 2006 and 2009, trials were carried out in the Apulia region in Southern Italy to evalu-ate the possibility of mechanizing olive harvesting in groves of old and very large trees. The trees belonged to the cultivars ‘Cellina di Nardò’ and ‘Ogliarola Salentina’. They were 60-100 years old and 7-9 m tall with a canopy volume of 140-360 m3. In the first half of November 2006, with a mechanical beater mounted on a tractor plus hand-held pneumatic combs, the harvesting yield was close to 90% of the total olives present in the canopy, and the harvesting working productivity was around 60 kg of harvested olives h-1 worker-1. With a self-propelled shaker attached to the main branches the harvestin…

Binding of PTEN to specific PDZ domains contributes to PTEN protein stability and phosphorylation by microtubule-associated serine/threonine kinases

2005

The tumor suppressor phosphatase PTEN is a key regulator of cell growth and apoptosis that interacts with PDZ domains from regulatory proteins, including MAGI-1/2/3, hDlg, and MAST205. Here we identified novel PTEN-binding PDZ domains within the MAST205-related proteins, syntrophin-associated serine/threonine kinase and MAST3, characterized the regions of PTEN involved in its interaction with distinctive PDZ domains, and analyzed the functional consequences on PTEN of PDZ domain binding. Using a panel of PTEN mutations, as well as PTEN chimeras containing distinct domains of the related protein TPTE, we found that the PTP and C2 domains of PTEN do not affect PDZ domain binding and that the …

A dynamic subgrid-scale tensorial eddy viscosity model

1999

In the Navier-Stokes equations the removal of the turbulent fluctuating velocities with a frequency above a certain fixed threshold, employed in the Large Eddy Simulation (LES), causes the appearance of a turbulent stress tensor that requires a number of closure assumptions. In this paper insufficiencies are demonstrated for those closure models which are based on a scalar eddy viscosity coefficient. A new model, based on a tensorial eddy viscosity, is therefore proposed; it employs the Germano identity [1] and allows dynamical evaluation of the single required input coefficient. The tensorial expression for the eddy viscosity is deduced by removing the widely used scalar assumption of the …

Arquitectura y desarrollo urbano. Notas sobre el ensanche de Valencia de 1884

2014

[EN] The city development of Valencia, after its walls were demolished, starts in 1884 with the Enlargement Project by the architects José Calvo Tomás, Luis Ferreres Soler and Joaquín MªArnau Miramón. These three architects were members with number of Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Carlos and they left important buildings on the new streets created according to alignments designed in the project. A significant work of architecture, later increased with another brilliant contributions, as those of Carlos Carbonell, Jose Mª Manuel Cortina, Francisco Mora or Javier Goerlich, which forms a new urban landscape of cosmopolitan stamp with main two Grandes Vías. All this characterizes nineteenth…

Aportaciones documentales sobre cruces de orfebrería valencianas. Siglos XIV y XV

2020

The article intends to make a contribution of new documentary references, from the notarial funds of the Valencian archives, in which news about parish crosses and Lignum Crucis from the silversmith center of Valencia during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries are collected. The importance of these typologies lies in being the main elements of Christian worship, so it was an essential piece in each parish that allowed the provision in them of models of varied typology and functionality; for that reason they are conserved from altar crosses, cross-shaped reliquaries ?known as Lignum Crucis or Veracruz ?to processional crosses, larger and representative of the parish community to which it …

Un huerto rodeado de secano : Informe sobre el cultivo del naranjo en el País Valenciano a fines del siglo XIX

1993

El presente artículo pretende analizar, tomando como base una contabilidad privada protocolarizada en 1898, algunas de las vías seguidas en la transformación de la agricultura valenciana en el contexto de la expansión de la citricultura. Entre las principales cuestiones que se tratan, cabe destacar las referentes a los esfuerzos de adaptación de la agricultura a las nuevas condiciones del mercado, los cambios en la explotación de la tierra y del mercado de trabajo, así como las estrategias seguidas por los propietarios. This article aims to analyse, in base of a private inform from 1898, sorne means of the transformation of valencian agriculture under the new conditions imposed by the expan…

Najnowsze technologie i zarządzanie granicami zewnętrznymi Unii Europejskiej

2020

Artykuł koncentruje się na normatywnym, instytucjonalnym i operacyjnym projekcie Unii Europejskiej jako obszarze, w którym znaczna część bezpieczeństwa wewnętrznego jest zapewniana właśnie przez najnowsze technologie i wielkoskalowe systemy informacyjne. Następnie przechodzi się do analizy wyzwań prawnych wynikających z tworzenia systemu tzw. inteligentnych granic (ang. smart borders), tj. granic opartych na zautomatyzowanej kontroli granicznej oraz interoperacyjności wszystkich wielkoskalowych systemów informatycznych. W artykule stawia się dwa zasadnicze pytania badawcze. Po pierwsze, jak te nowe zjawiska wpływają na skuteczne zarządzanie granicami zewnętrznymi w UE? Po drugie, czy istnie…
