Aplicación de los Diagramas de Gantt a la programación del B.U.P. y C.0.U.

Las fases necesarias para elaborar un diagrama de Gant son: determinación de las actividades principales; estimación de la duración efectiva de las mismas; enunciación en el diagrama de las actividades principales y de su relación entre si; representación gráfica de su duración; su utilización sus limitaciones, las actividades que se presentan tienen que ser limitadas perfectamente sin excederse en detalles. Tienen a su favor que son fácilmente realizables por personas no especializadas y que su representación sinóptica e intuitiva es muy útil. En definitiva, podemos decir que es un método útil para las programaciones de los docentes y puede contribuir a la mejora de la enseñanza, ya que proporciona un método sencillo de resumir las progresiones efectuadas y anotar la marcha de las actividades es de fácil seguimiento y una clara visión de conjunto lo que contribuirá a una clara coordinación.

C(0) and bi-Lipschitz K-equivalence of mappings

In this paper we investigate the classification of mappings up to K-equivalence. We give several results of this type. We study semialgebraic deformations up to semialgebraic C(0) K-equivalence and bi-Lipschitz K-equivalence. We give an algebraic criterion for bi-Lipschitz K-triviality in terms of semi-integral closure (Theorem 3.5). We also give a new proof of a result of Nishimura: we show that two germs of smooth mappings f, g : R(n) -> R(n), finitely determined with respect to K-equivalence are C(0)-K-equivalent if and only if they have the same degree in absolute value.

Cleavage of the dimeric cyclopalladated [Pd(N,C-dmba)(mu-X)](2), (dmba = N,N-dimethylbenzylamine; X = SCN and NCO) by diphosphines. Palladium(II) compounds with distinct structures in the solid-state and in solution

The reactions of the pseudohalide-bridged dimer [Pd(N,C-dmba)(mu -SCN)](2) (1) (dmba = N,N-dimethylbenzylamine) with cis-Ph2PCH=CHPPh2 (cis-dppet) (1:1 molar ratio) and of [Pd(N,C-dmba)(mu -NCO)](2) (2) with Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2 (dppe) (1:2 molar ratio) gave mononuclear [Pd(C-dmba)(SCN)(cis-dppet)].H2O (1a) and [Pd(C-dmba)(NCO)(dppe)] (2a), respectively, with the diphosphines acting as chelating ligands. Reaction of (2) with Fe(C5H4PPh2)(2) (dppf) (1:1 molar ratio) yielded [{Pd(N,C-dmba)(NCO)}(2)(mu -dppf)] (2b), a bimetallic species containing two palladium atoms bridged by the diphosphine, whereas reaction in a 1:2 molar ratio gave the mononuclear [Pd(N,C-dmba)(dppf)][NCO]. CH2Cl2 (2c), with the diphosphine acting as a chelating ligand. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, i.r., P-31{H-1}, C-13- and H-1-n.m.r. spectroscopies. Conductivity measurements together with spectroscopic data showed that (1a) and (2a) do not have the same structure in the solid state and in MeCl solution, whereas for compounds (2b) and (2c) no structural changes were observed when the solids were dissolved in MeCl.

Messung der Zerfallsasymmetrien der radiativen Hyperonzerfälle Xi 0 Lambda gamma und Xi 0 Sigma 0 gamma mit dem NA48/1-Experiment

Der radiative Zerfall eines Hyperons in ein leichteres Hyperon und ein Photon erlaubt eine Untersuchung der Struktur der elektroschwachen Wechselwirkung von Hadronen. Dazu wird die Zerfallsasymmetrie $alpha$ betrachtet. Sie beschreibt die Verteilung des Tochterhyperons bezüglich der Polarisation $vec{P}$ des Mutterhyperons mit $dN / d cos(Theta) propto 1 + alpha |vec{P}| cos(Theta)$, wobei $Theta$ der Winkel zwischen $vec{P}$ und dem Impuls des Tochterhyperons ist. Von besonderem Interesse ist der radiative Zerfall $Xi^0 to Lambda gamma$, für den alle Rechnungen auf Quarkniveau eine positive Asymmetrie vorhersagen, wohingegen bisher eine negative Asymmetrie von $alpha_{Lambda gamma} = -0,73 +- 0,17$ gemessen wurde. Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, die bisherigen Messungen zu überprüfen und die Asymmetrie mit einer deutlich höheren Präzision zu bestimmen. Ferner wurden die Zerfallsasymmetrie des radiativen Zerfalls $Xi^0 to Sigma^0 gamma$ ermittelt und zum Test der angewandten Analysemethode der gut bekannte Zerfall $Xi^0 to Lambda pi^0$ herangezogen. Während der Datennahme im Jahr 2002 zeichnete das NA48/1-Experiment am CERN gezielt seltene $K_S$- und Hyperonzerfälle auf. Damit konnte der weltweit größte Datensatz an $Xi^0$-Zerfällen gewonnen werden, aus dem etwa 52.000 $Xi^0 to Lambda gamma$-Zerfälle, 15.000 $Xi^0 to Sigma^0 gamma$-Zerfälle und 4 Mill. $Xi^0 to Lambda pi^0$-Zerfälle mit nur geringem Untergrund extrahiert wurden. Ebenso wurden die entsprechenden $antiXi$-Zerfälle mit etwa einem Zehntel der obigen Ereigniszahlen registriert. Die Bestimmung der Zerfallsasymmetrien erfolgte durch den Vergleich der gemessene Daten mit einer detaillierten Detektorsimulation und führte zu den folgenden Resultaten dieser Arbeit: $alpha_{Lambda gamma} = -0,701 +- 0,019_{stat} +- 0,064_{sys}$, $alpha_{Sigma^0 gamma} = -0,683 +- 0,032_{stat} +- 0,077_{sys}$, $alpha_{Lambda pi^0} = -0,439 +- 0,002_{stat} +- 0,056_{sys}$, $alpha_{antiLambda gamma} = 0,772 +- 0,064_{stat} +- 0,066_{sys}$, $alpha_{antiSigma^0 gamma} = 0,811 +- 0,103_{stat} +- 0,135_{sys}$, $alpha_{antiLambda pi^0} = 0,451 +- 0,005_{stat} +- 0,057_{sys}$. Somit konnte die Unsicherheit der $Xi^0 to Lambda gamma$-Zerfallsasymmetrie auf etwa ein Drittel reduziert werden. Ihr negatives Vorzeichen und damit der Widerspruch zu den Vorhersagen der Quarkmodellrechnungen ist so zweifelsfrei bestätigt. Mit den zum ersten Mal gemessenen $antiXi$-Asymmetrien konnten zusätzlich Grenzen auf eine mögliche CP-Verletzung in den $Xi^0$-Zerfällen, die $alpha_{Xi^0} neq -alpha_{antiXi}$ zur Folge hätte, bestimmt werden.

C/EBP delta and C/EBP gamma bind the CCAAT-box in the human beta-globin promoter and modulate the activity of the CACC-box binding protein, EKLF

Developmental- and tissue-specific expression of globin genes is mediated by a few key elements within the proximal promoter of each gene. DNA-binding assays previously identified NF-Y, GATA-1, C/EBP beta and C/EBP gamma as candidate regulators of beta-globin transcription via the CCAAT-box, a promoter element situated between CACC- and TATA-boxes. We have identified C/EBP delta as an additional beta-globin CCAAT-box binding protein. In reporter assays, we show that C/EBP delta can co-operate with EKLF, a CACC-box binding protein, to activate the beta-globin promoter, whereas C/EBP gamma inhibits the transcriptional activity of EKLF in this assay.

Monthly Arctic sea ice lead fraction in 0.5° x 0.5° resolution from SARAL/Altika altimeter, link to datasets in NetCDF 4 format

Sea ice leads play an essential role in ocean-ice-atmosphere exchange, in ocean circulation, geochemistry, and in ice dynamics. Their precise detection is crucial for altimetric estimations of sea ice thickness and volume. This study evaluates the performance of the SARAL/AltiKa (Satellite with ARgos and ALtiKa) altimeter to detect leads and to monitor their spatio-temporal dynamics. We show that a pulse peakiness parameter (PP) used to detect leads by Envisat RA-2 and ERS-1,-2 altimeters is not suitable because of saturation of AltiKa return echoes over the leads. The signal saturation results in loss of 6-10% of PP data over sea ice. We propose a different parameter-maximal power of waveform-and define the threshold to discriminate the leads. Our algorithm can be applied from December until May. It detects well the leads of small and medium size from 200 m to 3-4 km. So the combination of the high-resolution altimetric estimates with low-resolution thermal infra-red or radiometric lead fraction products could enhance the capability of remote sensing to monitor sea ice fracturing.

On S-asymptotically omega-periodic functions and applications

Let (X, parallel to . parallel to) be a Banach space and omega is an element of R. A bounded function u is an element of C([0, infinity); X) is called S-asymptotically omega-periodic if lim(t ->infinity)[u(t + omega) - u(t)] = 0. In this paper, we establish conditions under which an S-asymptotically omega-periodic function is asymptotically omega-periodic and we discuss the existence of S-asymptotically omega-periodic and asymptotically omega-periodic solutions for an abstract integral equation. Some applications to partial differential equations and partial integro-differential equations are considered. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Spaces of compact operators on C(2(m) circle plus [0, alpha]) spaces

We classify up to isomorphism the spaces of compact operators K(E, F), where E and F are Banach spaces of all continuous functions defined on the compact spaces 2(m) circle plus [0, alpha], the topological sum of Cantor cubes 2(m) and the intervals of ordinal numbers [0, alpha]. More precisely, we prove that if 2(m) and aleph(gamma) are not real-valued measurable cardinals and n >= aleph(0) is not sequential cardinal, then for every ordinals xi, eta, lambda and mu with xi >= omega(1), eta >= omega(1), lambda = mu < omega or lambda, mu is an element of [omega(gamma), omega(gamma+1)[, the following statements are equivalent: (a) K(C(2(m) circle plus [0, lambda]), C(2(n) circle plus [0, xi])) and K(C(2(m) circle plus [0, mu]), C(2(n) circle plus [0, eta]) are isomorphic. (b) Either C([0, xi]) is isomorphic to C([0, eta] or C([0, xi]) is isomorphic to C([0, alpha p]) and C([0, eta]) is isomorphic to C([0,alpha q]) for some regular cardinal alpha and finite ordinals p not equal q. Thus, it is relatively consistent with ZFC that this result furnishes a complete isomorphic classification of these spaces of compact operators. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Measurement of the pp(-)-> W gamma plus X cross section at root s=1.96 TeV and WW gamma anomalous coupling limits

The WW gamma triple gauge boson coupling parameters are studied using p (p) over bar -> l nu gamma + X(l = e, mu) events at root s = 1.96 TeV. The data were collected with the D0 detector from an integrated luminosity of 162 pb(-1) delivered by the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The cross section times branching fraction for p (p) over bar -> W(gamma) + X -> l nu gamma + X with E-T(gamma) > 8 GeV and Delta R-l gamma > 0.7 is 14.8 +/- 1.6(stat) +/- 1.0(syst) +/- 1.0(lum) pb. The one-dimensional 95% confidence level limits on anomalous couplings are -0.88 < Delta kappa(gamma) < 0.96 and -0.20 < lambda(gamma) < 0.20.
