A medida que el agua de mar -eléctricamente conductora- se mueve a través del campo magnético de la Tierra, los iones de sodio y cloro disueltos en el océano son desviados debido a su interacción con este campo y su movimiento induce corrientes eléctricas en el océano. Estas corrientes generan ca...

As the electrically-conducting seawater flows across the Earth’s magnetic field, the moving salt ions are deflected by their interaction with the geomagnetic field, thereby inducing electric currents in the ocean. These currents generate secondary magnetic fields, in the range of the nanotesla (n...

The discovery of brown dwarfs of the new Y spectral type by the NASA Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has allowed astronomers to study the physics of the coolest brown dwarfs and determine their prevalence in the Milky Way. This thesis exploits the high resolution and wide field–of–view...

In this dissertation an experimental method to generate and measure high dimen- sional quantum states is presented. Weak coherent pulses in the single photon level are prepared when a continuous wave 690 nm laser is pulsed with an Acousto Optical Modulator (AOM) and attenuated using neutral filte...

En esta tesis se estudia una teoría de gravedad no relativista en cinco dimensiones conocida como gravedad de Newton–Chern–Simons, donde el sector de materia es un fluido perfecto. Una generalización del teorema de Chern–Weil nos permite mostrar que las acciones extendidas para gravedad Chern–Sim...

In this thesis is studied a five-dimensional non-relativistic gravity theory the so called Newton–Chern–Simons gravity, where the matter sector is a perfect fluid. Moreover, a generalization of the Chern–Weil theorem allows us to show that extended Chern–Simons actions for gravity in d = 4 inv...

We investigate remarkable phenomena in nonlinear systems associated with intrinsically non-linear heterogeneities, motivated by real-world situations. We study the nonlinear dynamics in parametrically driven systems and their applications in the context of hydrodynamics and magnetic materials. Us...

En mecánica estadística las simulaciones Monte Carlo modelan la situación de equilibrio de sistemas físicos, utilizando principalmente el ensemble canónico, el cual es incompatible con valores anómalos en las funciones respuesta. No obstante, esta situación puede ser superada al utilizar la teorí...
