Abordamos a formulação das equações de Dirac e Klein-Gordon em uma geometria arbitrária. Como resultado, encontramos uma solução analítica para equação de Klein-Gordon no espaço tempo de uma corda cósmica. Na sequência resolvemos a equação de Dirac em 1+1 dimensões em um referencial acelerado para duas situações de interesse. Na primeira solução obtida, resolvemos a equação sem potencial escalar e obtemos soluções que representam energia discreta. No segundo caso, resolvemos para o potencial do tipo exponencial. Um resultado interessante foi a ocorrência de estados de energia nula em ambas soluções. Por fim estudamos a equação de Dirac no espaço- tempo de Melvin. Neste problema consideramos a métrica de um espaço que possui um campo magnético constante em uma direção.<br> / Abstract : In this work, we presents solutions for the wave equations in curved space-time. We use general relativity principles to formulate quantum wave equations for bosons and fermions. We find an exact solution of the Klein-Gordon equation and determine the energy spectrum of the particle in the cosmic string space-time. In addition, we obtain two exact solutions for the 1+1 dimensional Dirac equation in Rindler space-time. In the last chapter, we consider the Dirac equation in Melvin space-time. The energy spectra are computed and we show their dependence on the magnetic field.

In recent years there has been increasing interest in the analysis and clarification of social agency administration. In the group work setting the philosophies of democracy and social group work are intimately related. The Neighbourhood House is a "society in miniature", wherein all the pressures and interactions of human relationships are active and can be observed. The effectiveness of this community experience is a measure, of the compatibility of democratic aims and its practical implementation. Modern administrators believe that those who participate in an agency program should have a part in the process of policy-making. This is the core of democratic social agency administration. The representative membership council in the leisure-time agency is a medium for self-government and a vital instrument in the development of a responsible constituency. Important to the democratic administrative process is the role played by the professional group worker. In an attempt to learn something about the dynamic, quality of agency administration and relationships, this study is focused on the House Council, as the administrative group directly related to the membership. The analysis of the effectiveness of the Council is made in terms of selected concepts and principles of democratic social agency administration. The material used is based on records of House Council meetings gathered by the writer during a student placement at Gordon House in 1952-53. It is hoped that the findings of the study will help to point up the need for increased attention to the dynamics of administrative groups and specifically to the role of the House Council and the social group worker in the overall process. / Arts, Faculty of / Social Work, School of / Graduate

This thesis reviews the administrative process involved in initiating and developing a casework service in Gordon Neighbourhood House. The service operated over a period of eight months, and during that time accepted only members of the agency as clientele. Through intensive cooperative work with Gordon Neighbourhood House staff it was intended that caseworkers should employ their skills to improve the social adjustment of group members and thereby enhance the general health and welfare of membership groups. The administrative structure of Gordon House, and the problems involved in integrating this new service into the agency, are described. In evaluation, the achievements and possibilities of this service are weighed against the investments of administration and staff required in an effort to introduce and to maintain this service. The estimated effort involved in relation to the possibilities for achievement, is the criterion used to Judge the value of casework services in this setting. A rating is made of the degree of success achieved in forty-eight cases referred for service. Case summaries reveal the process involved in the operation of this service. The finding is, that, providing the agency takes appropriate administrative steps, casework services are a practicable method of coping with individual problems that cannot be handled satisfactorily within groups. It is important that the workers and the administration be sufficiently flexible to meet each other's requirements. Specifically, the administration must define the purpose and function of this service in such a way that responsibilities of the casework staff be made clear. The casework staff in turn must be prepared to apply their skills in the less formal setting of the neighbourhood house. / Arts, Faculty of / Social Work, School of / Graduate

Don Juan was Byron's effort to come to terms with the reality of his own environment, and he demanded the liberty to try to understand life and to present his conclusions without editorial or social oppression. It is an examination of the problem of appearance and reality; as a satire, the poem attacks appearances maintained by hypocrisy by placing them against the background of reality which is apparent to Byron.
