Nuclides that are considered to be isotopes of element Z = 115 were produced in the reaction 48Ca + 243Am at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung Darmstadt. The detector setup TASISpec was used. It was mounted behind the gas-filled separator TASCA. Thirty correlated α-decay chains were found, and the energies of the particles were determined with high precision. Two important spectros
China is currently promoting indigenous technology development thought support of Chinese firms and, arguably, by restricting operations of foreign multinational firms. This policy seems to overlook the impact of foreign firms on technology development in local firms. For instance, technology might leak out to local firms though spillovers. Moreover, competition from foreign firms might force loca
The role of cabergoline in Cushing's disease (CD) remains controversial. The experience is limited to case reports and few open studies that report the effects determined after ≥1 month of treatment. In prolactinomas and dopamine-responsive GH-secreting tumours, effects of cabergoline are seen within days or weeks. Here, we searched for short-term effects of cabergoline in CD.
The delta C-13 record from an early Sheinwoodian limestone unit in the Prague Basin suggests its deposition during the time of the early Sheinwoodian carbon isotope excursion (ESCIE). The geochemical data set represents the first evidence for the ESCIE in the Prague Basin which was located in high latitudes on the northwestern peri-Gondwana shelf during early Silurian times.
Many elderly men with high-risk nonmetastatic prostate cancer (HRnMPCa) do not receive radical treatment, despite the high mortality associated with conservative management.
This report is the thesis of the research and development project entitled: Development of a Resource Saving Concept for the Establishment of a Climate Suitable for the Storage of Objects Worthy of Preservation in Storerooms at Museums and in Archives. In short: The ZEPHYR project. This work is the result of a research and development project. The aim is to improve the possibilities of using pass
A simulation of the n -> pi* absorption and the pi -> n fluorescence of acetone in aqueous solution is reported. The model has an explicit solvent representation with an effective ab initio treatment of the solute. The model attempts to balance quantum chemistry, intermolecular interactions and statistical thermodynamics. It includes a non-electrostatic perturbation on the solute which models the
A sensitivity study was performed with a nonlinear elastic finite element model for monotonic analyses of wood-framed shear walls. The objective was to provide information about simplifying a model of wood-framed shear walls with no significant loss in accuracy. The simplifications concern features such as slips in joints between frame members, slips in hold-down connections, and bearing between a
The scientific literature on health effects from dampness in buildings, including mite exposure over the period 1998-2000 has been reviewed by a European group (EUROEXPO) of eight scientists in experience from medicine, epidemiology, toxicology and engineering. Forty studies deemed relevant have been the foundation for the conclusions. Dampness in buildings is a risk factor for health effects amon
The paper describes a project aiming at constructing functional mimics of the oxygen evolving complex in photosystem II, coupled to photoinduced charge separation. Biomimetic electron donors, manganese complexes and tyrosine, have been linked to a Ru(II)-polypyridine photosensitiser. Oxidation of the donors by intramolecular electron transfer from the photooxidised Ru(III) complex was demonstrated

Let X-1, X-2,... be independent random variables and a a positive real number. For the sake of illustration, suppose A is the event that Xi+1 +...+ X-j greater than or equal to a for some integers 0 less than or equal to i < j < infinity. For each k greater than or equal to 2 we upper-bound the probability that A occurs k or more times, i.e. that A occurs on k or more disjoint intervals, in terms

It is proven that the essential spectrum of any self-adjoint operator associated with the matrix differential expression [GRAPHICS] consists of two branches. One of these branches (called regularity spectrum) can be obtained by approximating the operator by regular operators (with coefficients which are bounded near the origin), the second branch (called singularity spectrum) appears due to singul
The effect of three alleles (RN-, rn(+) and a second mutant allele V1991, denoted rn*) at the PRKAG3 (RN) locus on such meat quality traits as pH, internal reflectance (FOP), Warner-Bratzler shear force, water-holding capacity and cooking loss were studied. M. longissimus dorsi (LD) from a total of 334 crossbreed pigs, entire males and females, Hampshire (H) and Finnish Landrace (L) of three combi
