La vinculación del negocio turístico-inmobiliario con las migraciones por amenidad o por estilos de vida tiende a incubar problemas de racionalidad que, además de los ligados a la falta de sustentabilidad ambiental, acaban por volver inviable la lógica socio-económica del proceso. Para ilustrar este argumento se propone una reflexión crítica basada en la experiencia de lo acontecido en tres regiones del mundo en las que el desarrollo del modo de producción inmobiliario -basado en la captación y promoción de los tipos de movilidad residencial orientados por la búsqueda de experiencias de ocio- ha promovido efectos regresivos en relación al desarrollo local: las áreas montañosas del Oeste de Canadá, la Norpatagonia, en Argentina, y el sudeste de España, con atención a la provincia de Alicante. El artículo indaga en la falta de sustentabilidad de un modelo de desarrollo basado en el negocio turístico-inmobiliario; al tiempo que identifica patrones comunes y diferencias entre los casos analizados.

We perform a detailed modelling of the post-outburst surface emission of the low magnetic field magnetar SGR 0418+5729. The dipolar magnetic field of this source, B=6×1012G estimated from its spin-down rate, is in the observed range of magnetic fields for normal pulsars. The source is further characterized by a high pulse fraction and a single-peak profile. Using synthetic temperature distribution profiles, and fully accounting for the general-relativistic effects of light deflection and gravitational redshift, we generate synthetic X-ray spectra and pulse profiles that we fit to the observations. We find that asymmetric and symmetric surface temperature distributions can reproduce equally well the observed pulse profiles and spectra of SGR 0418. None the less, the modelling allows us to place constraints on the system geometry (i.e. the angles ψ and ξ that the rotation axis makes with the line of sight and the dipolar axis, respectively), as well as on the spot size and temperature contrast on the neutron star surface. After performing an analysis iterating between the pulse profile and spectra, as done in similar previous works, we further employed, for the first time in this context, a Markov-Chain Monte Carlo approach to extract constraints on the model parameters from the pulse profiles and spectra, simultaneously. We find that, to reproduce the observed spectrum and flux modulation: (a) the angles must be restricted to 65° ≲ ψ + ξ ≲ 125° or 235° ≲ ψ + ξ ≲ 295°; (b) the temperature contrast between the poles and the equator must be at least a factor of ∼6, and (c) the size of the hottest region ranges between 0.2 and 0.7 km (including uncertainties on the source distance). Lastly, we interpret our findings within the context of internal and external heating models.

This series contains sixty-nine documents related to the College's interest in the Charlestown ferry between 1707 and 1806 that were gathered together, arranged in chronological order, and pasted into a bound volume at an undetermined date. The majority of documents are leases and bonds with the ferrymen, as well as handwritten copies of Corporation petitions to the General Court regarding ferry fares and bridge development. The series also includes handwritten legal opinions composed by Levi Lincoln and Nathan Dane for the College analyzing the rights of the College to transportation-related income.
