Nele, defende que, embora Inteligência e Sensibilidade dos agentes morais sejam, si mesmas, destituídas liberdade, por conseguinte, moralidade, Vontade possui um controle indireto sobre essas faculdades na vasta medida que elas apre...

The mixing angle θ13 is the last mixing angle to be measured. A non-zero value of θ13 is key to the possibility of measuring CP violation in future long-baseline accelerator experiments. The best limit on θ13 comes from the reactor experiment CHOOZ.[1] It has recently been recognized that the best possibility for rapidly measuring a non-zero value of the parameter θ13 comes from a new reactor e...
