Los albores de la física y el desarrollo de la meteorología en Costa Rica
(2002)
El siguiente artículo describe algunos aspectos del desarrollo de la física en Costa Rica, con énfasis en el siglo XIX. El trabajo está basado en una investigación bibliográfica de fuentes históricas, donde se compilaron ...
The gigaelectronvolt counterpart of ver j2019+407 in the northern shell of the supernova remnant g78.2+2.1 (γ cygni)
(2016-07)
Analysis of gamma-ray emission from the supernova remnant G78.2+2.1 (γ Cygni) with 7.2 years of cumulative data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope shows a distinct hard, bright, and extended component to the north of the ...
Negative Thermal Expansion in Open Perovskites near the Precipice of Structural Stability
(2018)
Negative thermal expansion (NTE) describes the anomalous propensity of materials to shrink when heated. Since its discovery, the NTE effect has been found in a wide variety of materials with an array of magnetic, electronic ...
Quantum ferroelectric instabilities in superconducting SrTiO3
(2018)
We examine the effects of strain and cation substitution on the superconducting phase of polar semiconductors near a ferroelectric quantum phase transition with a
model that combines a strong coupling theory of ...
Distribución espacial de impactos de eventos hidrometeorológicos en América Central
(2016)
América Central está expuesta a la ocurrencia de eventos hidrometeorológicos a lo largo del año y los impactos que estos pueden provocar van a estar mayormente localizados en áreas donde las variables tanto naturales como ...
Dosimeter arrangement for effective dose and isodose curves desterminations into craniofacial cavity
Disposición de dosímetros para determinaciones de curvas de dosis e isodosis efectivas en la cavidad craneofacial
(2023)
Tomographic dental imaging with cone beam computed tomography has developed so fast in Costa Rica, in the absence of investigations to determine the absorbed dose by the patients, we propose a TLD dosimeter array into RANDO ...
Electronic structure of silicon-based nanostructures
(2007-08-30)
We have developed a unifying tight-binding Hamiltonian that can account for the electronic properties of recently proposed Si-based nanostructures, namely, Si graphene-like sheets and Si nanotubes. We considered the sp3s∗ ...
Improvement of early detection of breast cancer through collaborative multi-country efforts: Medical physics component
(2018)
Purpose: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) through a Coordinated Research Project on “Enhancing
Capacity for Early Detection and Diagnosis of Breast Cancer through Imaging”, brought together a group of mammography ...
Tropical precipitation anomalies and d‐excess evolution during El Niño 2014‐16
(2016)
The last 2014-16 El Niño event was among the three strongest episodes on record. El Niño considerably changes annual and seasonal precipitation across the tropics. Here, we present a unique stable isotope data set of daily ...
Algunas ideas para lograr un mayor desarrollo científico y tecnológico en Costa Rica
(2000)
El propósito de este capítulo, el cual está basado en el trabajo de Fernández y Páez (2000), es describir las actividades en Ciencias Espaciales que se están llevando a cabo en Costa Rica, estas actividades están centradas ...
