Measurement of W-pair production in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies from 183 to 209 GeV
2004
The W + W- production cross section is measured from a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 683 pb-1, collected by the ALEPH experiment at LEP at centre-of-mass energies from 183 to 209 GeV. Individual cross sections for the different topologies arising from W decays into leptons or hadrons, as well as the total W-pair cross section are given at eight centre-of-mass energies. The results are found to be in agreement with recently developed Standard Model calculations at the one percent level. The hadronic branching fraction of the W boson is measured to be B(W→qq¯) = 67.13 ± 0.37(stat.) ± 0.15(syst.)%, from which the CKM matrix element |\ensuremathVcs| is determined…
Los Estereotipos de género en las producciones audiovisuales: diseño y validación de la tabla de análisis EG_5x4
2022
Los productos culturales de la educación no formal, y en concreto los difundidos por televisión y plataformas streaming, incluidas no ficción y animación infantil, proponen entre sus figuraciones personajes estereotipados en su construcción de género. Según investigaciones previas, identificarlos y combatirlos favorece la erradicación de ideas sexistas relacionadas con violencias machistas. Por ello, el objetivo que se planteó fue diseñar y validar una tabla de análisis de estereotipos sexuales presentes en cualquier producto audiovisual. El proceso siguió un protocolo de 3 fases (Garrido et al., 2015): 1) Se revisó la literatura publicada, se extrajeron rasgos relacionados con estereotipos…
Ion beam intensity and phase space measurement techniques for ion sources.
2022
Ion sources produce beams used in accelerators and other applications. Both development and use of ion sources need beam diagnostics to probe the plasma processes and beam formation for optimization purposes and to produce beam parameters needed for transport tuning. These diagnostics include beam intensity measurements usually carried out with Faraday cups or inductive pickups, magnetic separation, profile measurements with scintillation screens and wires, and phase space measurements with different types of emittance scanners. peerReviewed
Validación de una escala reducida para valorar competencias básicas de aprendizaje del alumnado universitario
2021
[ES] La relación entre evaluación y desarrollo de las competencias básicas para el aprendizaje del alumnado universitario es indiscutible, pues la evaluación juega un papel relevante al determinar lo que aprende el alumnado y la forma en la que realiza sus tareas académicas. Con el objetivo de contribuir en el avance de la metodología evaluativa para la valoración de dichas competencias, este estudio pretende validar una escala reducida la cual ha sido adaptada del Autoinforme de desarrollo de las competencias básicas de los estudiantes –COMPES-. Dicha escala busca medir, de forma concisa y breve, el nivel competencial percibido por parte del alumnado respecto a un conjunto de competencias …
Single vector boson production in e(+)e(-) collisions at centre-of-mass energies from 183 to 209 GeV
2005
The cross sections for single vector boson production in the Wenu and Zee channels are measured from the data collected by AA the ALEPH detector at LEP for centre-of-mass energies between 183 and 209 GeV. These data correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 683 pb(-1). Single-W production is studied in both hadronic and leptonic decay channels. Hadronic and dimuon decays are used for single-Z production. The measured cross sections agree with the Standard Model predictions.
Quantitative colorimetric-imaging analysis of nickel in iron meteorites.
2011
A quantitative analytical imaging approach for determining the nickel content of metallic meteorites is proposed. The approach uses a digital image of a series of standard solutions of the nickel-dimethylglyoxime coloured chelate and a meteorite sample solution subjected to the same treatment as the nickel standards for quantitation. The image is processed with suitable software to assign a colour-dependent numerical value (analytical signal) to each standard. Such a value is directly proportional to the analyte concentration, which facilitates construction of a calibration graph where the value for the unknown sample can be interpolated to calculate the nickel content of the meteorite. The…
An Optoelectronic System for Measuring the Range of Motion in Healthy Volunteers: A Cross-Sectional Study.
2019
Background and Objectives: Within the clinical evaluation of multiple pathologies of the lower limb, the measurement of range of motion (ROM) of its joints is fundamental. To this end, there are various tools, from the goniometer as a reference to more recent devices such as inclinometry-based applications, photo capture applications, or motion capture systems. This study aimed to assess the validity, intra-rater, and inter-rater reliability of the VeloFlex system (VS), which is a new camera-based tool designed for tracking joint trajectories and measuring joint ROM. Materials and Methods: Thirty-five healthy volunteers (16 females
