La evolución del ingreso de los hogares en América Latina durante el período 1990-2008: ¿Ha sido favorable a los pobres?

Una misma tasa de crecimiento del ingreso genera efectos de distinta magnitud en la pobreza y en la desigualdad. Esto sugiere aplicar metodologías complementarias para valorar si la estrategia de desarrollo ha generado variaciones del ingreso, la pobreza y la equidad en favor de los pobres. En este trabajo se aplican distintas metodologías para calificar la calidad del crecimiento del ingreso en los países de América Latina durante el período 1990-2008.

El gran desafío para los puertos: la hora de pensar una nueva gobernanza portuaria ha llegado

El presente Boletín FAL constituye la primera parte de una serie de estudios sobre puertos y transporte marítimo. Se analizan los cambios en la gobernanza portuaria que han ocurrido desde el inicio de la última ola de reformas, y las nuevas circunstancias en las que se encuentra el sistema portuario, de lo que surge la necesidad de orientar una nueva gobernanza en los puertos de América Latina y el Caribe con el fin de hacer frente a los requerimientos del siglo XXI.

Prediction of dopant atom distribution on nanocrystals using thermodynamic arguments

A theoretical approach aiming at the prediction of segregation of dopant atoms on nanocrystalline systems is discussed here. It considers the free energy minimization argument in order to provide the most likely dopant distribution as a function of the total doping level. For this, it requires as input (i) a fixed polyhedral geometry with defined facets, and (ii) a set of functions that describe the surface energy as a function of dopant content for different crystallographic planes. Two Sb-doped SnO2 nanocrystalline systems with different morphology and dopant content were selected as a case study, and the calculation of the dopant distributions expected for them is presented in detail. The obtained results were compared to previously reported characterization of this system by a combination of HRTEM and surface energy calculations, and both methods are shown to be equivalent. Considering its application pre-requisites, the present theoretical approach can provide a first estimation of doping atom distribution for a wide range of nanocrystalline systems. We expect that its use will support the reduction of experimental effort for the characterization of doped nanocrystals, and also provide a solution to the characterization of systems where even state-of-art analytical techniques are limited.

Desenvolvimento de um código computacional para simulação e análise de espectros atômicos

The aim of this work was the development a computer code for simulation and analysis of atomic spectra from databases constructed from the literature. There were created four routines that can be useful for spectroscopic studies in the atomic processes of laser isotope separation. In the first routine, Possible Transitions, the program checks the possible electron transitions from an energy level of the atom present in the database considering the selection rules for an electric dipole transition. The second routine, Locator Transitions, checks the possible electronic transitions within a user-specified spectral region. The routine Spectra Simulator creates simulated spectra using the graphical application gnuplot through lorentzian curve and finally, the routine Electronic Temperature determines the temperature of electronic excitation of the atom, thought the Boltzmann Plot Method. To test the reliability of the program there were obtained experimental emission spectra of a hollow cathode discharge of dysprosium and argon as a buffer gas. The hollow cathode discharge has been subjected to different values of operating currents and pressure of inert gas. The spectra obtained were treated with the assistance of program routines developed (Transition Locator and Spectra Simulator) and temperatures electronic excitation of the atoms of dysprosium in the different discharge conditions were calculated (routine Electronic Temperature). The results showed that the electronic excitation temperature of the neutral dysprosium atoms in the hollow cathode discharge increases with increasing current applied to the cathode and also by increasing the gas pressure buffer. The determination coefficients, R2, obtained by the Electronic Temperature routine using the linear adjust of the Boltzmann Plot Method were greater...
