Pressure dependence of superconductivity in amorphous Ni x Zr 100-x alloys

Pressure variations of the superconducting transition temperature Ic of a series of amorphous NixZr 1 OO-x alloys have been studied under quasmydrostatic pressures upto 8 G Pa. For amorphous samples having Ni-concentration less than 40%, i)Tc/dP is positive in sign and it decreases non linearly with increase in I. whereasdTcldP is negative in sign for Ni concentration of 45%. Comparison with the Hall coefficient (I) and the thermoelectric power (2) results for the same amorphous alloys leads to the conclusion that s-d hybridization nature of the d-band (Nil plays a central role in the sign reversal behaviour. Application of pressures greater than 2 G Pa to Ni20ZrgO led to the formation of a new phase, w-Zr. which retains its form after the pressure is released.

Market reactions to changes in the Nasdaq-100 Index membership

We examine stock market reactions around the Nasdaq-100 Index reconstitutions. We find a symmetric and transitory price response accompanied by a significant increase in trading volume on the effective date. Firms added to the Nasdaq-100 Index experience significant increases in institutional ownership, the number of market makers, and the number of shareholders. In contrast, firms removed from the index show significant decreases in the number of institutional shareholders. Additions to the Nasdaq-100 Index also show significant increases in four liquidity measures, whereas deletions demonstrate significant decreases in two liquidity measures. These changes in liquidity are related to the abnormal return on the announcement day. Taken together, the results suggest support for the price pressure, liquidity, and investor awareness hypotheses.

“Illegal Aliens” and the Inconspicuous Geographies of US Immigration and Border Policing within 100 Miles of the US-Canada Border

Legal provisions in the US have extended the idea of the border to the inside of US territory. Border Patrol Agents confront people in different spaces to inquire about their status. I examine border policing along the northern border of the United States through textual and discourse analysis. This thesis asks: How do border agents exercise power and control the movement of people within 100 miles of the border? In whose interest is the border, the “nation,” secured? The spaces in which these mobile borders are practiced become the sites where “citizens” and “aliens” are produced, reproduced and contested. These border policing practices create the illusion of a “nation” that is secured for “our” interests. However, the interests of these vulnerable groups are not reflected in the immigration policy and along the “border. Therefore the very existence of immigrants and their basic right to be in the US is undermined.

Adsorption energy and spin state of first-row transition metals adsorbed on MgO(100)

Slab and cluster model spin-polarized calculations have been carried out to study various properties of isolated first-row transition metal atoms adsorbed on the anionic sites of the regular MgO(100) surface. The calculated adsorption energies follow the trend of the metal cohesive energies, indicating that the changes in the metal-support and metal-metal interactions along the series are dominated by atomic properties. In all cases, except for Ni at the generalized gradient approximation level, the number of unpaired electron is maintained as in the isolated metal atom. The energy required to change the atomic state from high to low spin has been computed using the PW91 and B3LYP density-functional-theory-based methods. PW91 fails to predict the proper ground state of V and Ni, but the results for the isolated and adsorbed atom are consistent within the method. B3LYP properly predicts the ground state of all first-row transition atom the high- to low-spin transition considered is comparable to experiment. In all cases, the interaction with the surface results in a reduced high- to low-spin transition energy.

Dirac-Fock-Slater calculations for the elements Z = 100, fermium, to Z = 173

Listed here for the elements Z = 100, fermium, to Z = 173 are energy eigenvalues and total energies found from relativistic Dirac-Fock-Slater calculations. The effect of high ionization on the energy eigenvalues is presented for two exarnples. The use of these tables in connection with the energy levels of superheavy elements and molecular orbital (MO) x-ray transitions in superheavy quasiatoms, is discussed. In addition, abrief comparison between the results of the Dirac-Fock-Slater and Dirac-Fock calculations is given.

Protagonistas de rosa y azul : 100 libros para una educación no sexista.

Selección de cien títulos de libros cuyo objetivo es modificar la percepción sexista del mundo que impera en nuestra sociedad y facilitar y ayudar a la mujer para que recupere su propia historia y valore adecuadamente sus aportaciones a lo largo de la historia. Este libro ofrece a las madres y padres, educadoras y educadores un medio para utilizar la literatura infantil y juvenil como apoyo a una educación que facilite una visión más global y completa del mundo y de su historia. En su primera parte, se aportan ideas sobre el sexismo y sociedad y sexismo y literatura. La selección de libros está dividida por bloques de edad: 0-4 años, de 5 a 7, 8 a 10, 11 a 13 y de 14 en adelante.

100 formas de ahorrar.

En la educación primaria se presentan las áreas como un conjunto de saberes organizados que, se supone, explican la realidad y ayudan a desenvolverse en ella. Sin embargo, para garantizar la educación integral de los individuos, ha parecido necesario incorporar al currículum unas lineas educativas y de contenido que son esenciales en toda educación. Son los temas transversales, campos de la realidad en los que todas las personas crecen y se desarrollan individual y colectivamente y que no se pueden obviar en una educación que se precie de ser integral. El presente documento va dirigido a alumnos y alumnas del ciclo tercero de educación primaria y trata de presentar dos realidades cotidianas, a veces semiocultas para este tramo de edad: la presencia de actividades sonoras molestas para los individuos y las numerosas fórmulas que existen para ahorrar. Se trata de una propuesta didáctica sencilla que no puede abarcar este amplio campo de estudio, pero que sí puede servir para introducir en el tema y provocar en el alumnado la aparición de conductas y actitudes de buen consumidor.
