J/psi Suppression at Forward Rapidity in Pb-Pb Collisions at root s(NN)=2.76 TeV

The ALICE experiment has measured the inclusive J/psi production in Pb-Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV down to zero transverse momentum in the rapidity range 2.5 < y < 4. A suppression of the inclusive J/psi yield in Pb-Pb is observed with respect to the one measured in pp collisions scaled by the number of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions. The nuclear modification factor, integrated over the 0%-80% most central collisions, is 0.545 +/- 0.032(stat) +/- 0.083dsyst_ and does not exhibit a significant dependence on the collision centrality. These features appear significantly different from measurements at lower collision energies. Models including J/psi production from charm quarks in a deconfined partonic phase can describe our data.

Suppression of high transverse momentum D mesons in central Pb-Pb collisions at root s(NN)=2.76 TeV

The production of the prompt charm mesons D-0, D+, D*(+), and their antiparticles, was measured with the ALICE detector in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC, at a centre-of-mass energy root s(NN) = 2.76 TeV per nucleon-nucleon collision. The p(t)-differential production yields in the range 2 < p(t) < 16 GeV/c at central rapidity, vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.5, were used to calculate the nuclear modification factor R-AA with respect to a proton-proton reference obtained from the cross section measured at root s = 7 TeV and scaled to root s = 2.76 TeV. For the three meson species, R-AA shows a suppression by a factor 3-4, for transverse momenta larger than 5 GeV/c in the 20% most central collisions. The suppression is reduced for peripheral collisions.

J/psi production as a function of charged particle multiplicity in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV

The ALICE Collaboration reports the measurement of the relative J/psi yield as a function of charged particle pseudorapidity density dN(ch)/d eta in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV at the LHC. J/psi particles are detected for p(t) > 0, in the rapidity interval vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9 via decay into e(+)e(-), and in the interval 2.5 < y < 4.0 via decay into mu(+)/mu(-) pairs. An approximately linear increase of the J/psi yields normalized to their event average (dN(J/psi)/dy)/(dN(J/psi)/dy) with (dN(ch)/c eta)/(dN(ch)/d eta) is observed in both rapidity ranges, where dN(ch)/d eta is measured within vertical bar eta vertical bar < 1 and p(t) > 0. In the highest multiplicity interval with (dN(ch)/d eta)(bin)) = 24.1, corresponding to four times the minimum bias multiplicity density, an enhancement relative to the minimum bias J/psi yield by a factor of about 5 at 2.5 < y <4 (8 at vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.9) is observed.

Light vector meson production in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV ALICE Collaboration

The ALICE experiment has measured low-mass dimuon production in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV in the dimuon rapidity region 2.5 < y < 4. The observed dimuon mass spectrum is described as a superposition of resonance decays (eta, rho, omega, eta', phi) into muons and semi-leptonic decays of charmed mesons. The measured production cross sections for omega and phi are sigma(omega)(1 < p(t) < 5 GeV/c. 2.5 < y < 4) = 5.28 +/- 0.54(stat) +/- 0.49(syst) mb and sigma(phi)(1 < p(t) < 5 GeV/c. 2.5 < y < 4) = 0.940 +/- 0.084(stat) +/- 0.076(syst) mb. The differential cross sections d(2)sigma/dy dp(t) are extracted as a function of p(t) for omega and phi. The ratio between the rho and omega cross section is obtained. Results for the phi are compared with other measurements at the same energy and with predictions by models. (C) 2012 CERN. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

El romancero de Canarias

[ES] El romancero de Canarias, es uno de los mejor estudiados, en las últimas décadas, en el contexto hispánico. Las distintas recolecciones y ediciones que se han realizado del romancero de las Islas por parte de investigadores, editores y recolectores como Maximiano Trapero, Diego Catalán, Cullen del Castillo, Godoy Pérez, entre otros, desde los años sesenta en adelante, suponen un aporte considerable al conocimiento del romancero. Pero estos trabajos no son más que romanceros particulares de una isla o una zona concretas, no un estudio general. En esta publicación, se presenta una visión en conjunto y comparada del romancero que ha pervivido y ha sido recogido en Canarias. En especial, se presta atención a quiénes son los recolectores, quiénes los informantes, cuáles fueron los puntos de encuestas, cuál fue la función que tuvo el romancero en Canarias, si los romances se cantan o no, el repertorio de los romances de Canarias por isla y en conjunto, el origen de los romances, etc. La unificación de los datos que representa cada romancero y cada estudio sobre los romances canarios supone un aporte novedoso y una información sustancial sobre el romancero recogido en el archipiélago, que hasta ahora no existía.

Evoluzione storica dell'associazionismo corporativo farmaceutico mediterraneo e dell'ordinamento professionale farmaceutico nell'unione europea. Studio legislativo comparato

In questa tesi ho analizzato le disposizioni legali che regolano l'associazionismo farmaceutico, oblligatorio o libero; corporativo o scientifico, e la sua relazione con i Sistemi Nazionali di Salute, dal punto di vista delle disposizioni vigenti nell'Unione Europea e le sue diverse applicazioni in due stati rappresentativi dell modello di amministrazione farmaceutica mediterranea, la Spagna e l`Italia, in comparazione con il modello anglosassone (Inghilterra). In primo luogo, si é presa in considerazione l'aggregazione professionale ufficiale dei farmacisti. In secondo luogo, sono analizzate le aggruppazioni economiche degli stessi professionisti e la loro relazione con i corrispondenti Sistemi di Salute. Questo lavoro pretende di mostrare una visione attuale di quello che é stato tradizionalmente l'essenza della professione farmaceutica dalle sue origini ( secolo XIII) e come essa si é inquadrata nei diversi stati grazie alla Pharmaceutical Care.
