Engineering spin exchange in nonbipartite graphene zigzag edges
Ortiz, R.; Lado, J. L.; Melle-Franco, M.; Fernandez-Rossier, J.The rules that govern spin exchange interaction in pristine graphene nanostructures are constrained by the bipartite character of the lattice, so that the sign of the exchange is determined by whether magnetic moments are on the same sublattice or not. The synthesis of graphene ribbons with perfect zigzag edges and a fluoranthene group with a pentagon ring, a defect that breaks the bipartite nature of the honey...
Magma displacements under insular volcanic fields, applications to eruption for...
Garcia, A.; Fernandez-Ros, A.; Berrocoso, M.; Marrero, J. M.; Prates, G.; De la Cruz-Reyna, S.; Ortiz, R.Significant deformations, followed by increased seismicity detected since 2011 July at El Hierro, Canary Islands, Spain, prompted the deployment of additional monitoring equipment. The climax of this unrest was a submarine eruption first detected on 2011 October 10, and located at about 2 km SW of La Restinga, southernmost village of El Hierro Island. The eruption ceased on 2012 March 5, after the volcanic trem...
Results of the GEP-ISFG collaborative study on an X-STR Decaplex
Gusmão, L.; Alves, C.; Sánchez-Diz, P.; Zarrabeitia, M.T.; Abovich, M.A.; Aragón, I.; Arce, B.; Arrieta, G.; Arroyo, E.; Atmetlla, I.; Baeza, C.A collaborative work was carried out by the Spanish and Portuguese ISFG Working Group with a PCR multiplex for X chromosome STRs. Markers were selected among those described as polymorphic in humans and that have been used by some laboratories in forensics. Primers and various technical methods were investigated with the aim of optimizing a multiplex for the 10 selected X-STRs. Primer mix stock solutions were s...
Near-Real time analysis of seismic data of active volcanoes: Software implement...
Vila, J.; Ortiz, R.; Tárraga, M.; Macià, R.; García, A.; Kumar, D.; Correig, A. M.This paper presents the development and applications of a software-based quality control system that monitors volcano activity in near-real time. On the premise that external seismic manifestations provide information directly related to the internal status of a volcano, here we analyzed variations in background seismic noise. By continuous analysis of variations in seismic waveforms, we detected clear indicati...
