The landscape mingles with the vines and cereal crops – an ever-changing canvas of colour: intensely green towards the end of winter, the colour of straw at the end of spring, and deep ochre during the final months of summer. 1 All over the Alentejo there are archaeological markers suggesting that wine has Historybeen an important part of life up to the present day. Whilst it is not known exactly when wine and viticulture was introduced to the Alentejo, there is plenty of evidence that they were already part of the day-to-day life in the Alentejo by the time the Romans arrived in the south of Portugal. It is thought that the Tartessians, an ancient civilisation based in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and heirs of the Andalusian Megalithic culture, were the first to domesticate vineyards and introduce winemaking principles in the Alentejo.

[email protected] Abstract of the Proposed Talk: One of the goals of IPPW has been to bring about international collaboration. Establishing collaboration, especially in the area of EDL, can present numerous frustrating challenges. IPPW presents opportunities to present advances in various technology areas. It allows for opportunity for general discussion. Evaluating collaboration potential requires open dialogue as to the needs of the parties and what critical capabilities each party possesses. Understanding opportunities for collaboration as well as the rules and regulations that govern collaboration are essential. The authors of this proposed talk have explored and established collaboration in multiple areas of interest to IPPW community. The authors will present examples that illustrate the motivations for the partnership, our common goals, and the unique capabilities of each party. The first example involves earth entry of a large asteroid and break-up. NASA Ames is leading an effort for the agency to assess and estimate the threat posed by large asteroids under the Asteroid Threat Assessment Project (ATAP).

We show that the pul- sar experienced an unusually large glitch recovery, with a recovery fraction of Q = 5.9 ± 0.3, resulting in a net decrease of the pulse frequency. Such a glitch recovery has never before been observed in a rotation-powered pulsar, however, similar but smaller glitch over-recovery has been recently reported in the magne- tar AXP 4U 0142+61 and may have occurred in the SGR 1900+14. We discuss the implications of the unusual timing behavior in PSR J1846-0258 on its status as the first identified magnetically active rotation-powered pulsar. Subject headings: pulsars: general—pulsars: individual (PSR J1846-0258)—X- rays: stars 1. Introduction PSR J1846-0258 is a. young (-800 yr), 326 ms pulsar, discovered in 2000 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE; Gotthelf et al.

  • Glitches in Superfluid Neutron Stars
    GLITCHES IN SUPERFLUID NEUTRON STARS Marco Antonelli [email protected] Centrum Astronomiczne im. Mikołaja Kopernika Polskiej Akademii Nauk Quantum Turbulence: Cold Atoms, Heavy Ions ans Neutron Stars INT, Seattle (WA) – April 16, 2019 Outline Summary: Why glitches (in radio pulsars) tell us something about rotating neutron stars? - A bit of hystory: why superfluidity is needed to explain glitches. Intrinsic difficulty: model the exchange of angular momentum that causes the glitch (mutual friction) - Many-scales (coherence length → stellar radius) - Possible memory effects (also observed in He-II experiments) Which microscopic input do we need? I will focus on two quantities: - Pinning forces (or better, the critical current for unpinning) - Entrainment Is it possible to use glitches to obtain “model-independent” statements about neutron stars interiors? SPOILER: yes, we have at the moment 2 models: 1 – Activity test → “entrainment” 2 – Largest glitch test → “pinning forces” Question: is it possible to go beyond these two tests? What can be done? Neutron stars – RPPs What we observe, since: What we think it is, since: Hewish, Bell et al., Observation of a rapidly pulsating Pacini, Energy emission from a neutron star (1967) radio source (1968) Gold, Rotating neutron stars as the origin of the pulsating radio sources (1968) Magnetic field lines Radiation beam Coordinated observations with three telescopes: 22-s data slice of the pulsed radiation at four different radio Open issue: precise description bands obtained of the 1.2 s pulsar B1113+16. of beamed emission mechanism Why? Coherent (i.e. non-thermal) emission + brightness + small period: only possible for very compact objects A vibrating WD or NS? excluded by pulsar-timing data: P increases with time.

  • National Public Libraries Network
    PUBLIC LIBRARIES NATIONAL NETWORK The emancipation of a foundation project Maria José Moura António Marta Braga Exactly 20 years ago I was asked to build a program for the promotion of public reading in Portugal, which would be supported by a partnership between central and local administration, aiming to create and develop public libraries with all the modern requirements, then pioneering, in our subject. The technical and financial support, conceived as program-contracts – which only after, were generalised for other purposes – was taken as a model for several more recent networks of cultural equipments, as it was considered a success case at a national and international level. Having been asked to tell you a bit of this story, I can’t however say it were all successes and that, if the majority of the strategic options were shown to be right, some happened that, being presented in valid time, were not considered to be a priority in political terms – giving privilege to quantity, which means, a faster coverage of all territory – and that to other propositions was not given implementation, not only because shortage of resources, but also given the overall difficulties, which resulted in lost opportunities. It is clear today, thinking in all this experience, that it’s easier to identify what would have been better to do, particularly if we ignore, with bigger or smaller good will, the temporal circumstances or the general context itself. Illustrating this fact, it is certain that, on one hand, we lack cooperation habits to optimise the investments made by each one of the partners, on the other, the costs of the technologies, widely spread in the last years, are not yet today accessible to many of them, being financially, being in it’s proper use since there is lack of human resources or they are insufficiently skilled.

    1 ALTERNATIVE COSMOLOGY GROUP www.cosmology.info Monthly Notes of the Alternative Cosmology Group – 2011 Part Two: August to December 2011 The ACG Webmaster who distributes this newsletter to subscribers would prefer not to receive related correspondence. Please address all correspondence to MNACG Editor, Hilton Ratcliffe: [email protected]. The ACG newsletter is distributed gratis to subscribers. Get onto our mailing list without obligation at www.cosmology.info/newsletter. The current newsletter is a review of more than 12,000 papers published on arXiv under astro-ph, together with 6500 under gen-phys, for the months of April to December, 2011. We now include papers archived elsewhere, provided access is full and open. The Alternative Cosmology Group draws its mandate from the open letter published in New Scientist, 2004 (www.cosmologystatement.org), and these monthly notes seek to publicise recently published empirical results that are aligned with that ethos. In other words, what observations seem anomalous in terms of the Standard Model of Cosmology? We prefer observational results and tend to avoid complete cosmologies and purely theoretical work. Discussion of method is welcome. If you would like to suggest recently published or archived papers for inclusion, please send the arXiv, viXra or other direct reference and a brief exposition to Hilton Ratcliffe ([email protected]). Note that our spam filter rejects slash and colon in the text, so please write web addresses commencing “www”. I. Editorial comment I apologise most profusely again for the delay in getting the MNACG out to you.

  • The Portuguese Agrarian Reform: Why No Violent Repression?
    Departamento de Ciência Política e Políticas Públicas The Portuguese Agrarian Reform: Why no Violent Repression? Ana Rita Monteiro Marques Dissertação submetida como requisito parcial para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Ciência Política Orientador(a): Doutora Filipa Raimundo, Professora Auxiliar Convidada, ISCTE-Instituto Universitário de Lisboa Agradecimentos À professora Nancy Bermeo por me ter dado a faísca que despertou esta ideia. A todos os professores que já tive por me ajudarem a subir aos ombros de gigantes, e em especial à Filipa Raimundo por ter sido sempre uma força positiva e de motivação durante todo este processo. Aos meus pais, por serem os melhores educadores que alguma vez conheci e por me terem incutido uma vontade eterna de aprender. À Inês, à Martinha, ao Tomás e ao Francisco por não me deixarem crescer e por partilharem comigo a sua curiosidade e fascínio pelo mundo. I Resumo: Esta dissertação examina a questão da não violência na implementação da reforma agrária em Portugal (1974-6). Através da análise de dados de arquivo e de entrevistas a dissertação explica que, apesar da crise de estado e das ações violentas que decorriam, durante a transição democrática, nos centros urbanos do país, que as ocupações de terra, tanto legais como ilegais, não levam a ação violenta no meio rural. Usando o método de triangulação demonstra-se que a articulação de um conjunto de fatores contribuí para o desenrolar de um processo pacífico. É a ausência de forças conservadores assim como a ausência de uma organização de classe juntamente com o radicalismo das forças de esquerda e a sua articulação simbiótica com as forças governamentais que faz com que, ao contrário do esperado, nenhum dos atores recorra a ações violentas.
