Outdoor systems performance and upgrade
Lopes, L.; Andringa, S.; Assis, P.; Blanco, A.; Carolino, N.; Cerda, M.A.; Clemêncio, Filomena; Conceição, R.; Cunha, O.; Dobrigkeit, C.; Ferreira, M.Over the last two decades, the possibility of using RPCs in outdoors systems has increased considerably. Our group has participated in this effort by installing several systems and continues to work on their optimization, while simultaneously studying and developing new approaches that can use RPCs in outdoor applications. In particular, four detectors were deployed in the field at the Pierre Auger Observatory ...

Association of positive and negative life events with cognitive performance and...
Castanho, T. C.; Santos, N. C.; Meleiro-Neves, C.; Neto, S.; Moura, G. R.; Santos, M.; Cruz, A.R.; Cunha, O.; Castro Rodrigues, A.; Rodrigues, A. J.Objectives: Life events have important effects on psychological well-being. Yet, studies have mainly focused on exploring the impact of traumatic and negative experiences on health and well-being, with positive events receiving marginal attention. In this study, we investigated the association between negative and positive life events, cognitive performance and psychological status in older individuals. Method:...

Outdoor Field Experience with Autonomous RPC Based Stations
Lopes, L.; Assis, P.; Blanco, A.; Carolino, N.; Cerda, M.A.; Conceição, R.; Cunha, O.; Ferreira, M.; Fonte, P.; Luz, R.; Mendes, L.; Pereira, A.In the last two decades Resistive Plate Chambers were employed in the Cosmic Ray Experiments COVER-PLASTEX and ARGO/YBJ. In both experiments the detectors were housed indoors, likely owing to gas distribution requirements and the need to control environment variables that directly affect RPCs operational stability. But in experiments where Extended Air Shower (EAS) sampling is necessary, large area arrays compo...
A large area TOF-tracker device based on multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers
Assis, P.; Bernardino, A.; Blanco, A.; Luz, R.; Mendes, L.; Michel, J.; Neiser, A.; Pereira, A.; Pimenta, M.; Shellard, R.; Traxler, M.The TOF-tracker concept, the simultaneous measurement of accurate time and bi-dimensional space coordinates in a single gaseous detector, has been previously demonstrated. The detector yielded a time resolution of 77 ps σ along with a bi-dimensional position resolution of 38 μm σ over a full active area of 60 × 60 mm2. In here, we report about a large area, 1550 × 1250 mm2, TOF-tracker device, tested by trackin...
Malformação Quística Adenomatoideia Congénita Pulmonar. Duas Formas de Apresent...
Carral, Carmen; Koehler, Susana; Araújo, João; Cunha, J.; Santos, F.; Oliveira, D.; Moura, E.; Almeida, E.; J. Oliveira, M.; Ferreira, P.; Frutuoso, S.A malformação quística adenometoideia congénita do pulmão consiste numa massa de quistos revestidos por epitélio respiratório resultante da proliferação dos bronquíolos terminais. A sua apresentação clínica é muito diversa, desde casos de morte fetal por hidrops não imune até quadros de infecções pulmonares recorrentes na infância. Os autores descrevem dois casos clínicos de malformação quística adenomatoideia ...

Cunha, O.; Mota, T.C.; Lopez, M.G.; Santos, E.; Lisboa, L.; Morgado, H.; Lima, F.F.; Castro, C.; Ribeiro, A.Introdução: A fasceíte necrotizante é uma infecção grave dos tecidos moles, geralmente causada por Streptococcus pyogenes. É uma complicação rara da varicela e o diagnóstico numa fase precoce é pouco frequente. Caso clínico: Apresenta-se o caso clínico de uma criança de oito anos de idade com varicela, complicada de fasceíte necrotizante e síndrome de choque tóxico estreptocócico, que necessitou de procedimento...
