The illustrious 18th century bibliographer, theologian, preacher and professor Juan José de Eguiara y Eguren, wrote and preached approximately 212 sermons and talks which have been preserved in manuscript form in the Biblioteca Nacional de México. Despite the fact that these texts account for almost half of this author’s written work, we are only aware of the publication of 10 of his sermons. We may find this surprising when we consider, on the one hand, the literary and cultural transcendence of the genre of the sermon during the Colonial period and, on the other, the great care that Eguiara dedicated to the composition, correction and transcription of many of these pieces of writing. In this article, I present the edition of the first part of a manuscript sermon by Eguiara dedicated to St. Joseph, to whom the author seemed to show particular devotion, as I intend to demonstrate, based on the work and on the cultural and religious context of the historical period. I also propose here that this relatively extensive piece of writing complies with the formal characteristics of an “academic sermon,” insofar as we may speak of such a type of sermon in the 18th century. We know that Eguiara’s sermon about St. Joseph was preached during the second quarter of the century, on a more or less solemn occasion, though we do not know where; I shall propose some options regarding possible locations. We also know that Eguiara considered this sermon to be ready to go to press, both because of his clearly stated indication thereof and because of the attention given to the style and the structure of the work. It was carefully copied by an amanuensis and has corrections and additions by Eguiara; it was bound along with 9 other booklets containing other sermons about saints.

The article explores the relationship of the person with the hole through both literal and metaphorical situations. On the one hand, it points up the body in seclusion and suspended in a time interval, as in the case of the accident at the mine in San José (Chile) or works by artists like J. Wall, G. Schneider or R. Ondák. In this way, opposed feelings evoke the experiences of waiting and/or punishment, which are explanatory of a confined body or a hole. Literature, cinema and art deal with these events from multiple aspects, which become existential allegories about the individual. On the other hand, the act of digging gains prominence as a symbol of work, but also of the absurd. Recalling the ambivalence that may suggest a person making a hole, this article carries out a drift through works by artists of different generations and contexts, such as C. Burden, M. Heizer, F. Miralles, Geliti, S. Sierra, F. Alÿs, M. Salum, X. Ristol or N. Güell. A series of clearly performative or conceptual works, where the act of digging, drilling, burying or unburying become common practices that show the diversity of meanings and intentions.

Companies are created to generate return on investment, profit maximization, in the competitive market it is essential to incorporate positioning strategies, products, prices and quality. The global pandemic COVID-19 forced many companies to redirect their sales strategies, others even had to close operations during the confinement decreed, due to the reduction in consumption and demand for products and services, the micro sector companies were undoubtedly the one that was most affected. The research analyzes the impact of the economic crisis on the financial results of micro companies in the city of Ambato, where the highest per-centage of companies of this type is concentrated. The research was carried out using an adequate method-ology that allowed to know the information directly with the owners of the companies selected in the sample, to generate the discussion results.

With the objective of evaluating, in the field, the antagonism of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseoli against Rhizoctonia solani, two experiments were established in the zones of Santa Rosa de Pocosol (Alajuela) and Sabanilla de Montes de Oca (San José), in two different sowing seasons. The stocks CR- 455, CR-477, CR-487, CR-422 and CIAT-632, were evaluated and were inoculated with R. solani. Besides the stocks we included the following treatments: Absolute Witness (AW), with no R. solani inoculation, with no nitrogen added(-N, -R); +N-R (+140 kg N/ha, with no R. solani inoculation); +N+R (+140 kg N&ha, with R. solani inoculated). The soil was inoculated utilizing rice husks colonized by R. solani, at a dosis of 14,5 g/m2.. We evaluated the variables: porcent of germination, plants height and infection rate. We performed the evaluations at 8 and 18 days after germination. We utilized the design of complete blocks ramdomly located with six repetitions per treatment. The variable of plant height did not show any differences between treatments in any of the zones. The treatment with fungicides was the one which showed more germination percentages in both experiments. In Pocosol, all the stocks sho wed some inhibition effect towards the fungus (P<0.05), but only during the period of the first evaluation. In Montes de Oca, we observed a larger inhibiton effect thant the one in Santa Rosa; the stocks CR-487 and CR- 422 showed smaller I.I than the witness in the first evaluation (P<0,05), and they all showd significant differences on what concerns the +N+R treatment for the same variable, during the second evaluation.

Juan José de Eguiara y Eguren (1696-1763) seems to have been clearly devoted to St. Joseph. In order to show this, the following pages will take a look at his Tratado sobre el Santísimo José, Esposo de la Madre de Dios (which includes two interesting paratexts by his friend, the Jesuit Vicente López), published in volume 1 of Selectae Dissertationes Mexicanae…, a complete treatise on Theology written for his students at the Mexican University. Eguiara´s debts to previous European and Spanish scholarly tradition on Saint Joseph will be pointed out, as well as his personal contributions to this tradition. Finally, a bibliographical review of this New Spain bibliographer and theologian’s homiletic production on Saint Joseph will be made, as well as of the books on Saint Joseph that were printed at his own printing house (Imprenta de la Bibliotheca Mexicana) during Eguiara´s lifetime. Finally, among Eguiara´s works dedicated to Saint Joseph, a manuscript anthology of sermons on the saint written by different European authors is pointed out, and the possibility is suggested that this work may be the one of similar characteristics that has been attributed to Vicente López and which is now considered lost.

The first question to be answered, in seeking coordinate systems for geodynamics, is: what is geodynamics? The answer is, of course, that geodynamics is that part of geophysics which is concerned with movements of the Earth, as opposed to geostatics which is the physics of the stationary Earth. But as far as we know, there is no stationary Earth – epur sic monere. So geodynamics is actually coextensive with geophysics, and coordinate systems suitable for the one should be suitable for the other. At the present time, there are not many coordinate systems, if any, that can be identified with a static Earth. Certainly the only coordinate of aeronomic (atmospheric) interest is the height, and this is usually either as geodynamic height or as pressure. In oceanology, the most important coordinate is depth, and this, like heights in the atmosphere, is expressed as metric depth from mean sea level, as geodynamic depth, or as pressure. Only for the earth do we find “static” systems in use, ana even here there is real question as to whether the systems are dynamic or static. So it would seem that our answer to the question, of what kind, of coordinate systems are we seeking, must be that we are looking for the same systems as are used in geophysics, and these systems are dynamic in nature already – that is, their definition involvestime.

Recently we have investigated the phase equilibria and antiphase domain structures of Fe-Al alloys containing from 18 to 50 at.% Al by transmission electron microscopy and Mössbauer techniques. This study has revealed that none of the published phase diagrams are correct, although the one proposed by Rimlinger agrees most closely with our results to be published separately. In this paper observations by transmission electron microscopy relating to the nucleation of disorder in Fe-24% Al will be described. Figure 1 shows the structure after heating this alloy to 776.6°C and quenching. The white areas are B2 micro-domains corresponding to regions of disorder which form at the annealing temperature and re-order during the quench. By examining specimens heated in a temperature gradient of 2°C/cm it is possible to determine the effect of temperature on the disordering reaction very precisely. It was found that disorder begins at existing antiphase domain boundaries but that at a slightly higher temperature (1°C) it also occurs by homogeneous nucleation within the domains. A small (∼ .01°C) further increase in temperature caused these micro-domains to completely fill the specimen.

In the last decade and a half, thin film research, particularly research into problems associated with epitaxy, has developed from a simple empirical process of determining the conditions for epitaxy into a complex analytical and experimental study of the nucleation and growth process on the one hand and a technology of very great importance on the other. During this period the thin films group of the University of Chile has studied the epitaxy of metals on metal and insulating substrates. The development of the group, one of the first research groups in physics to be established in the country, has parallelled the increasing complexity of the field.The elaborate techniques and equipment now needed for research into thin films may be illustrated by considering the plant and facilities of this group as characteristic of a good system for the controlled deposition and study of thin films.

It has been recognized since the earliest days of crystal growth that kinetic processes of all Kinds control the nature of the growth. As the technology of crystal growth has become ever more refined, with the advent of such atomistic processes as molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, sputter deposition, and plasma enhanced techniques for the creation of “crystals” as little as one or a few atomic layers thick, multilayer structures, and novel materials combinations, the need to understand the mechanisms controlling the growth process is becoming more critical. Unfortunately, available techniques have not lent themselves well to obtaining a truly microscopic picture of such processes. Because of its atomic resolution on the one hand, and the achievable wide field of view on the other (of the order of micrometers) scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) gives us this opportunity. In this talk, we briefly review the types of growth kinetics measurements that can be made using STM. The use of STM for studies of kinetics is one of the more recent applications of what is itself still a very young field.

Numerous phenomenological descriptions of the mechanical behavior of composite materials have been developed. There is now an urgent need to study and interpret deformation behavior, load transfer, and strain distribution, in terms of micromechanisms at the atomic level. One approach is to characterize dislocation substructure resulting from specific test conditions by the various techniques of transmission electron microscopy. The present paper describes a technique for the preparation of electron transparent composites of aluminum-stainless steel, such that examination of the matrix-fiber (wire), or interfacial region is possible. Dislocation substructures are currently under examination following tensile, compressive, and creep loading. The technique complements and extends the one other study in this area by Hancock.The composite examined was hot-pressed (argon atmosphere) 99.99% aluminum reinforced with 15% volume fraction stainless steel wire (0.006″ dia.).Foils were prepared so that the stainless steel wires run longitudinally in the plane of the specimen i.e. the electron beam is perpendicular to the axes of the wires. The initial step involves cutting slices ∼0.040″ in thickness on a diamond slitting wheel.
