Journal ArticleDOI
Inverse magnetic catalysis in the ( 2 + 1 ) -flavor Nambu–Jona-Lasinio and Polyakov–Nambu–Jona-Lasinio models
Márcio Ferreira,Márcio Ferreira,Pedro Costa,Odilon Lourenço,Tobias Frederico,Constança Providência +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a scalar coupling parameter dependent on the magnetic field intensity was proposed to reproduce the lattice QCD results with respect to the quark condensates and Polyakov loop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deconfinement and chiral restoration within the SU(3) Polyakov--Nambu--Jona-Lasinio and entangled Polyakov--Nambu--Jona-Lasinio models in an external magnetic field
Márcio Ferreira,Pedro Costa,Débora P. Menezes,Débora P. Menezes,Constança Providência,Norberto N. Scoccola +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of quark condensates at zero chemical potential and finite temperature subject to an external magnetic field is studied within the three flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with Polyakov loop (PNJL) and its extension, the so-called entangled PNJL model (EPNJL).
Journal ArticleDOI
Microtextural characteristics of quartz grains transported and deposited by tsunamis and storms
Pedro Costa,César Andrade,Alastair G. Dawson,William C. Mahaney,Maria da Conceição Freitas,Raphaël Paris,Rui Taborda +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a study of quartz grains transported and deposited by tsunami and storm waves with the objective of identifying specific microtextural signatures caused by high-energy marine inundations and to correlate them with their principal sedimentary sources is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of earthquake-triggered turbidites from the Saguenay (Eastern Canada) and Reloncavi (Chilean margin) Fjords: Implications for paleoseismicity and sedimentology
Guillaume St-Onge,Emmanuel Chapron,Sandor Mulsow,Marcos Salas,Matias Viel,Maxime Debret,Maxime Debret,Anthony Foucher,Thierry Mulder,Thierry Winiarski,Marc Desmet,Pedro Costa,Bassam Ghaleb,Alain Jaouen,Jacques Locat +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, high-resolution seismic profiles along with physical and sedimentological properties of sediment cores from the Saguenay (Eastern Canada) and Reloncavi (Chile) Fjords allowed the identification of several decimeter to meter-thick turbidites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aeolian microtextures in silica spheres induced in a wind tunnel experiment: Comparison with aeolian quartz
Pedro Costa,César Andrade,William C. Mahaney,F. Marques da Silva,Paula Freire,M. C. Freitas,C. Janardo,Maria Alexandra Oliveira,Tiago A. Silva,Vitor V. Lopes +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a wind tunnel experiment was conducted, using glass spheres (>70% SiO 2 ) as a proxy for quartz, with the objective of determining the extent of mechanical damage to silica/glass transported in a mixture with quartz beach sand.
