El Madrid de la Bestia : l’apocalypse urbaine d’Álex de la Iglesia by Diane Bracco

“…Through the deployment of strategies of grotesque distortion, de la Iglesia invites us to see in his filmic re-elaboration of the metropolis the metonymy of a Spain that has lost all its points of reference: while taking possession of the urban landscape, integrated into a spectacular production, de la Iglesia lifts the veil on the paradoxes of a postindustrial society which longs for modernization, at the dawn of the third millennium, although it still harbours the residues of a dictatorial past that the advent of democracy has not enabled to eradicate.…”

A Rare Colocalization of Lichen Planus and Vitiligo by David Veitch, Georgios Kravvas, Sian Hughes, Christopher Bunker

“…After reviewing the literature, we believe that at present there is insufficient evidence to resolve the uncertainties in the aetiology of this colocalization. It seems to us that the association between LP and vitiligo is more than coincidental, but none of the theories discussed in this paper can sufficiently account for it. …”

Derivation of the Schrödinger equation V: Relativistic Equations of Quantum Mechanics and its epistemological impacts on teaching by L.S.F. Olavo, Marcello Ferreira

“…This derivation is an extension of the same method applied to the non-relativistic case in a in a previous series of articles by us. We show that, to extend the theoretical framework to the relativistic case, we have only to extend the axioms in a relativistically compatible way, as should be the case with any extension of an axiomatic method. …”

An elementary approach to modeling drug resistance in cancer by Cristian Tomasetti, Doron Levy

“…In contrast,our approach is based on an elementary, compartmental system of ordinarydifferential equations.We use our very simple approach to derive resultson drug resistance that are comparable to those that were previously obtained using much more complex mathematical techniques.The simplicity of our model allows us to obtain analytic results forresistance to any number of drugs.In particular, we show that the amountof resistance generated before the start of the treatment, and present at some given time afterward, always depends onthe turnover rate, no matter how many drugs are simultaneously used inthe treatment.…”

Few-photon SUPER: Quantum emitter inversion via two off-resonant photon modes by Quentin W. Richter, Jan M. Kaspari, Thomas K. Bracht, Leonid Yatsenko, Vollrath Martin Axt, Arno Rauschenbeutel, Doris E. Reiter

“…We investigate an extended Jaynes-Cummings model in which two nondegenerate photon modes are coupled off resonantly to a quantum emitter. This allows us to identify few-photon scattering mechanisms that lead to a full inversion of the emitter while transferring off-resonant photons from one mode to another. …”

Fedra en l’escriptura teatral de Salvador Espriu by Ramón X. Rosselló Ivars

“…Este artículo tiene como objeto de estudio dos obras teatrales del escritor catalán Salvador Espriu basadas en la tragedia de Hipólito y Fedra: Fedra (1936), versión catalana de un texto de Llorenç Villalonga escrito el 1932 y de título idéntico, y Una altra Fedra, si us plau (1977). El estudio, en primer lugar, pone en relación cada una de estas obras con algunos de los antecendentes ilustres (Eurípides, Séneca, Racine y Unamuno) y estudia los parecidos y diferencias. …”
