Biblioteques i universitats públiques: un camí comú cap a una ciència més ciutadana 

Bonhoure, Isabelle; Perelló, Josep, 1974- (2025-12-12)

Les biblioteques públiques estan vivint un procés de transformació per adaptar-se a l’esperit dels temps: desenvolupen nous rols de col·laboració amb les universitats, apropen la recerca científica a la comunitat i esdevenen ...

Discounting the Distant Future: What Do Historical Bond Prices Imply about the Long-Term Discount Rate? 

Farmer, J. Doyne; Geanakoplos, John; Richiardi, Matteo G.; Montero Matellanes, M. Mikel; Perelló, Josep, 1974-; Masoliver, Jaume, 1951- (2025-07-14)

We present a thorough empirical study on real interest rates by also including risk aversion through the introduction of the market price of risk. From the viewpoint of complex systems science and its multidisciplinary ...

Driving Magnetic Domains at the Nanoscale by Interfacial Strain-induced Proximity

We investigate the local nanoscale changes of the magnetic anisotropy of a Ni film subject to an inverse magnetostrictive effect by proximity to a V2O3 layer. Using temperature-dependent photoemission electron microscopy ...

The role of thermal coupling on avalanches in manganites 

Macià Bros, Ferran; Abril, G.; Hernández Ferràs, Joan Manel; Tejada Palacios, Javier (2024-01-19)

We report here a study on the environmental dependence of the occurrence, at low temperature, of ultra-sharp field induced avalanches in phase separated manganites. Despite the high reproducibility of avalanches, it has ...

Effect of stochastic resettings on the counting of level crossings for inertial random processes 

Montero Torralbo, Miquel; Palassini, Matteo; Masoliver, Jaume, 1951- (2024-10-27)

We study the counting of level crossings for inertial random processes exposed to stochastic resetting events. We develop the general approach of stochastic resetting for inertial processes with sudden changes in the state ...

Determinants of population responses to environmental fluctuations 

Vilar, J. M. G. (José M. G.), 1972-; Rubí Capaceti, José Miguel (2021-04-27)

Environmental fluctuations, such as changing conditions and variable nutrient availability, are an unavoidable component of the dynamics of virtually all populations. They affect populations in ways that are often difficult ...

Grain boundaries in vortex matter 

Moretti, Paolo; Miguel López, María del Carmen; Zapperi, Stefano (2010-01-26)

We explore the statistical properties of grain boundaries in the vortex polycrystalline phase of type-II superconductors. Treating grain boundaries as arrays of dislocations interacting through linear elasticity, we show ...

Tota la llum possible, segons Feynman 

Perelló, Josep, 1974- (2020-07-16)

Si Feynman pogués aixecar el cap! Quina alegria tindria. Els seus útils i sintètics diagrames de l'electrodinàmica quàntica (QED, en anglès) són l'alfabet bàsic de creació en una exposició en una galeria. En llegeixo la ...

Multiphase CFD modeling of front propagation in a Hele-Shaw cell featuring a localized constriction 

Mac Intyre, Jonatan R.; Puisto, Antti; Korhonen, Marko; Alava, Mikko J.; Ortín, Jordi, 1959- (2022-05-25)

We study a liquid-gas front propagation in a modulated Hele-Shaw cell by means of multiphase computational fluid mechanics based on the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. In the simulations an obstacle that partially ...

Geometric detection of hierarchical backbones in real networks 

Ortiz Castillo, Elisenda; Garcia Perez, Guillermo; Serrano Moral, Ma. Ángeles (María Ángeles) (2021-07-28)

Hierarchies permeate the structure of real networks, whose nodes can be ranked according to different features. However, networks are far from treelike structures and the detection of hierarchical ordering remains a ...

Magnetotransport properties of NiFe-Ag granular alloys: origin of the thermal behaviour 

Badia, Ferran; Batlle Gelabert, Xavier; Labarta, Amílcar; Watson, M. L.; Johnston, A. B.; Chapman, J. N. (2012-02-16)

The effect of the temperature and magnetic field on the giant magnetoresistivity (GMR) of two FeNi–Ag granular alloys of composition Fe11.4Ni6.4Ag82.2 and Fe7.6Ni16.4Ag76.0 is discussed. Both samples were prepared by rf ...

Analyzing user activity on Twitter during long-lasting crisis events: a case study of the Covid-19 crisis in Spain 

Esquirol Juanola, Bernat; Prignano, Luce; Díaz Guilera, Albert; Cozzo, Emanuele (2025-11-11)

A pandemic crisis like the Covid-19 outbreak is a complex event, involving numerous aspects of the social life on multiple temporal scales. Focusing on the Spanish Twittersphere, we characterized users' activity behavior ...

Modeling the structure of written text 

Serrano Moral, Ma. Ángeles (María Ángeles); Flammini, Alessandro; Menczer, Filippo (2016-02-15)

Written text is one of the fundamental manifestations of human language, and the study of its universal regularities can give clues about how our brains process information and how we, as a society, organize and share it. ...

Seismic hazard due to fluid injections 

Lord-May, Cole; Baró i Urbea, Jordi; Eaton, David W.; Davidsen, Jörn (2023-01-26)

Earthquakes can be induced by natural and anthropogenic processes involving the injection or migration of fluids within rock formations. A variety of field observations has led to the formulation of three different and ...

Stability of Z strings in strong magnetic fields 

Garriga Torres, Jaume; Montes, Xavier (2010-06-29)

We show that the Z-strings of the standard electroweak theory can be stabilized by strong external magnetic fields, provided that $\beta^{1/2} \equiv M_H/M_Z\leq 1$, where $M_H$ and $M_Z$ are the Higgs and Z masses. The ...
