Following a quasi model-independent approach we measure the transversal BAO mode at high redshift using two-point angular correlation function (2PACF). The analyses done here are only possible now with quasar catalogue from twelfth data release (DR12Q) Sloan Digital Sky Survey, because it is spatially dense enough to allow measurement of signature moderate statistical significance and acceptable precision. Our quasars in interval z ∊ [2.20,2.25] produce scale θBAO = 1.77° ± 0.31° 2.12 σ...

The 2-point angular correlation function $w(\ensuremath{\theta})$ (2PACF), where $\ensuremath{\theta}$ is the separation between pairs of galaxies, provides transversal baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) signal almost model independently. In this paper we use 409 337 luminous red galaxies in redshift range $z=[0.440,0.555]$ obtained from tenth data release Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS DR10) to estimate ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{BAO}}(z)$ 2PACF at six shells. Since noise and...

Cosmology relies on the Cosmological Principle, i.e., hypothesis that Universe is homogeneous and isotropic large scales. This implies in particular counts of galaxies should approach a scaling with volume at sufficiently Testing homogeneity crucial to obtain correct interpretation physical assumptions underlying current cosmic acceleration structure formation Universe. In this Letter, we use Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey make first spectroscopic model-independent measurements...

We report measurements of the scale cosmic homogeneity ($r_{h}$) using recently released quasar sample sixteenth data release Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV DR16). perform our analysis in 2 redshift bins lying interval $2.2 < z 3.2$ by means fractal dimension $D_2$. By adopting usual assumption that $r_{h}$ is obtained when $D_2 \sim 2.97$, is, within 1% $D_2=3$, we find with a decreasing trend redshift, and good agreement $\Lambda$CDM prediction. Our results confirm presence spatial...

The quasar sample of the fourteenth data release Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV DR14) is used to determine cosmic homogeneity scale in redshift range $0.80<z<2.24$. We divide into 4 bins, each one with $N_{\rm q} \geq 19,000$ quasars, spanning whole coverage survey and use two correlation function estimators measure scaled counts-in-spheres its logarithmic derivative, i.e., fractal dimension, $D_2$. Using $\Lambda$CDM cosmology as fiducial model, we first estimate evolution bias then...

Abstract We report measurements of the angular scale cosmic homogeneity ( θ H ) using recently released luminous red galaxy sample sixteenth data release Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV LRG DR16). It consists a model-independent method, as we only use celestial coordinates these objects to carry out such an analysis. The observational is divided into thin redshift bins, namely 0.67 &lt; z 0.68, 0.70 0.71, and 0.73 0.74, in order avoid projection biases, estimate our uncertainties through...

A nonminimal coupling between the dark matter and energy components may offer a way of solving so-called coincidence problem. In this paper we propose low-$z$ test for such hypothesis using measurements gas mass fraction ${f}_{\mathrm{gas}}$ in relaxed massive galaxy clusters. The applies to any model whose dilution is modified with respect standard ${a}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$ scaling, as usual interacting models, where $a$ cosmological scale factor. We apply current data perform Monte Carlo...

Os seres humanos são colonizados por um microbioma único, constituído diversos tipos de microrganismos que exercem importante papel na saúde do indivíduo. A obtenção da microbiota começa no momento parto, onde bactérias flora vaginal mãe transmitidas para o neonato. Todavia, em casos cesárea, a aquisição adequada pode ser afetada, gerando problemas podem perdurar toda vida.

Abstract Background Obesity is a chronic disease, defined by the World Health Organization as abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat in body. Overweight populations have grown epidemically all age groups recent decades and represent major public health issue globally. Excess weight one potential factors for insulin resistance, thus increasing risk developing type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to investigate urea/creatinine ratio marker renal function individuals with different body mass...

The Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) imprinted a characteristic correlation length in the large-scale structure of universe that can be used as standard ruler for mapping out cosmic expansion history. Here, we discuss application angular two-point function, $w(\theta)$, to sample luminous red galaxies Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and derive two new measurements BAO scale at $z = 0.235$ 0.365$. Since noise systematics may hinder identification signature $w - \theta$ plane, also introduce...

Abstract Background The Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can lead to chronic hepatitis and severe hepatic disease. Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT), Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alanine (ALT) tests are commonly used assess liver function. Despite having an effective vaccine schedule, many people in Brazil still susceptible HBV. Vaccines use the surface protein (AgHBs) of induce immunity, patients with antibody levels above 10 mUL/mL this considered have vaccine-induced immunity. study...

Abstract Background Serum-neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against SARS-CoV-2 may be produced as a result of either viral infection or vaccination. NAbs can disrupt the connection between RBD (Receptor-Binding Domain) Spike protein and ACE2 receptor, hindering virus's entry into cells. However, only portion these are able to neutralize virus prevent it from infecting new While presence should not considered guarantee neither immunity nor vaccine effectiveness, serve an indicator for...
