Análisis de pruebas de selección de estudiantes con talento matemático y caracterización del perfil de los participantes y seleccionados
2020
El programa Estalmat CV selecciona cada año a 25 estudiantes de la entre 11 y 13 años para participar en un proyecto de estímulo del talento matemático. En este trabajo se analizan las pruebas de selección y los resultados de 2018 y 2019. Los objetivos son, por un lado, analizar las características de los problemas de las pruebas de selección y reflexionar sobre su adecuación para detectar alumnos con altas capacidades y, por otro, analizar los datos de participación y los resultados en busca de regularidades en los perfiles de estudiantes. Entre las variables que se tendrán en cuenta en la caracterización de los perfiles, se presta especial atención al género, que tiene un gran interés en …
Bloque detector PET basado en cristales monolíticos y fotomultiplicadores de silicio
2017
La tomografía por emisión de positrones (PET) es una técnica de imagen médica, encuadrada en la medicina nuclear, consistente en la generación de imágenes a partir de la detección de radiación gamma resultante de la aniquilación de positrones, emitidos por un radiotrazador, con los electrones de tejidos circundantes. Las imágenes PET son de tipo funcional, lo que permite la observación y estudio de procesos fisiológicos, sin embargo, se ha probado que la integración de estos escáneres con otros sistemas de imagen médica que proporcionen imágenes de carácter anatómico mejora notablemente las prestaciones clínicas de ambos equipos. Este tipo de equipos multimodales se conocen como sistemas hí…
Studies of the performance of the ATLAS detector using cosmic-ray muons
2011
Muons from cosmic-ray interactions in the atmosphere provide a high-statistics source of particles that can be used to study the performance and calibration of the ATLAS detector. Cosmic-ray muons can penetrate to the cavern and deposit energy in all detector subsystems. Such events have played an important role in the commissioning of the detector since the start of the installation phase in 2005 and were particularly important for understanding the detector performance in the time prior to the arrival of the first LHC beams. Global cosmic-ray runs were undertaken in both 2008 and 2009 and these data have been used through to the early phases of collision data-taking as a tool for calibrat…
Measurement of inclusive jet and dijet cross sections in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV centre-of-mass energy with the ATLAS detector
2011
Jet cross sections have been measured for the first time in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector. The measurement uses an integrated luminosity of 17 nb−1 recorded at the Large Hadron Collider. The anti-k t algorithm is used to identify jets, with two jet resolution parameters, R=0.4 and 0.6. The dominant uncertainty comes from the jet energy scale, which is determined to within 7% for central jets above 60 GeV transverse momentum. Inclusive single-jet differential cross sections are presented as functions of jet transverse momentum and rapidity. Dijet cross sections are presented as functions of dijet mass and the angular variable χ. The res…
Measurements of underlying-event properties using neutral and charged particles in pp collisions at root s=900 GeV and root s=7 TeV with the ATLAS de…
2011
We present first measurements of charged and neutral particle-flow correlations in pp collisions using the ATLAS calorimeters. Data were collected in 2009 and 2010 at centre-of-mass energies of 900 GeV and 7 TeV. Events were selected using a minimum-bias trigger which required a charged particle in scintillation counters on either side of the interaction point. Particle flows, sensitive to the underlying event, are measured using clusters of energy in the ATLAS calorimeters, taking advantage of their fine granularity. No Monte Carlo generator used in this analysis can accurately describe the measurements. The results are independent of those based on charged particles measured by the ATLAS …
Luminosity determination in pp collisions at s=7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the LHC
2011
Measurements of luminosity obtained using the ATLAS detector during early running of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at s√=7 TeV are presented. The luminosity is independently determined using several detectors and multiple algorithms, each having different acceptances, systematic uncertainties and sensitivity to background. The ratios of the luminosities obtained from these methods are monitored as a function of time and of μ, the average number of inelastic interactions per bunch crossing. Residual time- and μ-dependence between the methods is less than 2% for 0<μ<2.5. Absolute luminosity calibrations, performed using beam separation scans, have a common systematic uncertainty of ±11%, do…
Limits on the production of the standard model Higgs boson in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV with the ATLAS detector
2011
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) running at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is reported, based on a total integrated luminosity of up to 40 pb−1 collected by the ATLAS detector in 2010. Several Higgs boson decay channels: H→γγ, H→ZZ(∗)→ℓℓℓℓ, H→ZZ→ℓℓνν, H→ZZ→ℓℓqq, H→WW(∗)→ℓνℓν and H→WW→ℓνqq (ℓ is e, μ) are combined in a mass range from 110 GeV to 600 GeV. The highest sensitivity is achieved in the mass range between 160 GeV and 170 GeV, where the expected 95% CL exclusion sensitivity is at Higgs boson production cross sections 2.3 times the Standard Model prediction. Upper limits on the cross section for its production are determined. Models wit…
International BEAT-PCD Consensus Statement for Infection Prevention and Control for Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in collaboration with ERN-LUNG PCD Cor…
2021
Introduction In primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) impaired mucociliary clearance leads to recurrent airway infections and progressive lung destruction, and concern over chronic airway infection and patient-to-patient transmission is considerable. So far, there has been no defined consensus on how to control infection across centres caring for patients with PCD. Within the BEAT-PCD network, COST Action and ERS CRC together with the ERN-Lung PCD core a first initiative has now been taken towards creating such a consensus statement. Methods A multidisciplinary international PCD expert panel was set up to create a consensus statement for infection prevention and control (IP&C) for PCD, covering …

Itinerario didáctico por los hospitales de la Valencia en guerra
2011
En Europa, durante los últimos años se ha producido un incremento del interés social y escolar por visitar el patrimonio bélico del siglo XX. Sin embargo, en España destaca la falta de habilitación pública de enclaves que tuvieron una importancia significativa durante la última guerra civil española (1936-1939). Este artículo analiza el caso particular de los escenarios históricos sobre los que se tejió la red de infraestructuras sanitarias que se desarrolló en la ciudad de Valencia durante la Guerra Civil. Asimismo, se propone un itinerario didáctico con el objetivo de divulgar este patrimonio desde un punto de vista civil y despolitizado. During the last years an increase of social and sc…
