Measurements in the low Bjorken-x region of deep inelastic electron-proton scattering events, containing a jet of high transverse momentum close to the flight direction of the proton, offer high sensitivity to BFKL-like dynamics. The results of recent measurements at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS experiments are presented.
Medullomyoblastoma (MMB) is a rare cerebellar childhood tumor containing both myoblastic and primitive neuroectodermal components. Similar to the scenario in classical medulloblastoma, which contains the primitive neuroectodermal component only, gain of sequences from the long arm of chromosome 17 (17q) and gain of the MYC gene in 8q have been implicated in the pathogenesis of MMB. Because karyoty
Aims/hypothesis Long-term exposure to NEFAs leads to inhibition of glucose-induced insulin secretion. We tested whether the release of somatostatin and glucagon, the two other major islet hormones, is also affected. Methods Mouse pancreatic islets were cultured for 72 h at 4.5 or 15 mmol/l glucose with or without 0.5 mmol/l oleate or palmitate. The release of glucagon and somatostatin during subse
2- Pyridone- fused 2,2'- bipyridine derivatives 1a and 1b were synthesised. X- Ray diffraction analysis of 1b revealed a highly complex solid state structure with a disordered molecule imbedded in a channel structure formed by a centrosymmetric lattice of hexagonally packed, hydrogen bonded columns. The columns are assembled from three symmetry independent molecules. Dimerisation of the self- comp
Colonization of two plant species by Glomus intraradices was studied to investigate the two morphological types (Arum and Paris), their symbiotic interfaces and metabolic activities. Root pieces and sections were stained to observe the colonization and metabolic activity of all mycorrhizal structures. There were no growth responses observed in the plants caused by mycorrhizal symbiosis. The two mo
An estimation model which uses the net heat release profile for estimating the cylinder air/fuel ratio of a spark ignition engine is developed. The net heat release profile is computed from the cylinder pressure trace and quantifies the conversion of chemical energy of the reactants in the charge into thermal energy. The net heat release profile does not take heat- or mass transfer into account. C
lMajor changes have occurred in the care of patients with rheumatic diseases over the past decades. Most of these changes have focused on new pharmacological and surgical procedures and methods. However, for different reasons, few of these methods are available to many patients around the world, and thus other forms of care are still needed. For optimal benefit to patients, all aspects of care sho
Abstract in Undetermined A step towards a successful implementation of time-resolved digital in-line holography with extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation is presented. Ultra-short XUV pulses are produced as high-order harmonics of a femtosecond laser and a Schwarzschild objective is used to focus harmonic radiation at 38 nm and to produce a strongly divergent reference beam for holographic recordin
Abstract in UndeterminedThe long-term impact of microbial-feeding animals on microbial populations was studied in microcosms containing pine seedlings growing in a gamma sterilized humus-sand mixture. Organism communities of diverse complexity were introduced into the microcosms. The two main experimental series contained microorganisms only and microorganisms and microorganism-feeding nematodes,
The gelatinization of cassava, potato and wheat starches in supercritical carbon dioxide was investigated using light microscope. The starch was placed in a stainless steel chamber at atmospheric pressure and high CO2 pressures, 8 and 30 MPa as well as at 8 MPa N-2 and the gelatinization degree observed by light microscopy. The results showed that both pressure and supercritical fluid affected the
OBJECTIVE: To determine and analyse the incidence of childhood injuries in Reykjavik 1974-1991. DESIGN: Descriptive, retrospective study. SETTING: Reykjavik City district with a mean number of 88700 inhabitants, of which 23.4% were children under 15 years of age. SUBJECTS: All children 0-14 years old who came to the emergency department at Reykjavik City Hospital because of an injury. MAIN OUTCOME
A fully integrated digitally controlled PLL used as a clock multiplying circuit is designed and fabricated. The PLL has no off-chip components and it is made from standard cells found in most digital standard cell libraries. It is therefore portable between processes as an IP-block. Using a 0.35 μm standard CMOS process and a 3.0 V supply, the PLL has a frequency range of 152 MHz to 366 MHz and oc
STUDY OBJECTIVES---To study geographical differences in diastolic blood pressure and the influence of the social environment (census percentage of people with low educational achievement) on individual diastolic blood pressure level, after controlling for individual age and educational achievement. To compare the results of multilevel and ecological analyses. DESIGN---Cross sectional analysis perf
We report on [001] InP nanowires grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy directly on (001) InP substrates. Characterization by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy reveals wires with nearly square cross sections and a perfect zinc-blende crystalline structure that is free of stacking faults. Photoluminescence measurements of single [001] nanowires exhibit a narrow an
Three-Terminal ballistic junctions (TBJs) and planar quantum-wire transistors (QWTs) are emerging nanoelectronic devices with various novel electrical properties. In this work, we realize novel nanoelectronic analogue and digital circuits with TBJs and planar QWTs made on In0.75Ga0.25As/InP two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) material. First we show that a single TBJ can work as a frequency mixer
