Intuition and ex-post facto reasoning in moral judgment: Some experimental findings
Psychological theories have traditionally assumed that moral judgment is caused by a reasoning process. This idea was challenged in two experiments. In the first participants were asked to make judgments in tasks set up to produce a conflict between intuition and reason. In the second, participants made judgments of morally questionable actions that were described either in a vividly disgusting wa

Fluxes of ammonia in the marine coastal boundary layer.
Concentrations of ammonia in air and ammonium in surface water were measured from a platform in the Southern North Sea close to the Dutch coast. Fluxes were derived from the measurements applying Monin–Obukhov similarity theory and exchange velocities calculated. The fluxes and air concentrations of ammonia were compared to results obtained from the Lagrangian transport-chemistry model ACDEP with
Error Bounds for Balanced Truncation of Linear Time-Varying Systems
In this paper error bounds for truncated balanced linear time-varying systems in discrete time are obtained. The analysis is based on direct calculations with the time-varying observability and controllability Lyapunov inequalities. The obtained bounds in the induced l-script -norm generalize well-known error-bound formulas for time-invariant systems. The case of time-varying state-space dimension
The Effect of Displacement on Air-Diluted Multi-Cylinder HCCI Engine Performance
The main benefit of HCCI engines compared to SI engines is improved fuel economy. The drawback is the diluted combustion with a substantially smaller operating range if not some kind of supercharging is used. The reasons for the higher brake efficiency in HCCI engines can be summarized in lower pumping losses and higher thermodynamic efficiency, due to higher compression ratio and higher ratio of
An economic evaluation of combination treatment with budesonide and formoterol in patients with mild-to- moderate persistent asthma
Patients with mild asthma may benefit from increasing their inhaled corticosteroid dose, adding a tong-acting beta(2)-agonist, or both. This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of these options. Patients aged greater than or equal to12 years with mild-to-moderate persistent asthma (n = 1272) were randomised to twice-daily, double-blind treatment with budesonide 100 mug, budesonide 100 mug plus f

Influence on crack development in concrete structures from imposed strains and varying boundary conditions
Crack development due to imposed strains in different types of concrete structures and with varying boundary conditions is studied in order to improve control of cracking. A previously developed two-dimensional FE-method is used, with closing forces in cracks concentrated to spring elements. Temperature changes are used as load, and the calculations are performed stepwise with opening of nodes and
A large-scale screening of the normalized mammalian mitochondrial gene expression profiles.
Mammalian mitochondrial genomes are organized in a conserved and extremely compact manner, encoding molecules that play a vital role in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and carry out a number of other important biological functions. A large-scale screening of the normalized mitochondrial gene expression profiles generated from publicly available mammalian serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE
Cost Analysis of Ethanol Production from Willow Using Recombinant Escherichia coli
This study comprises a technical and economic analysis of the production of fuel ethanol by fermentation of a pentose-rich hydrolysate with recombinant Escherichia coli, strain KO11. Hydrolysate from steam-pretreated willow was used as raw material in calculations regarding the fermentation. The calculations were based on a feed capacity of 10 metric tons of dry willow per hour to the pretreatment

Report of the First International Workshop on molecular blood group genotyping
The use of molecular genetic technology for blood group typing is becoming routine procedure in many reference laboratories worldwide. A First International Workshop was organized on behalf of the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) and the International Council for Standardization in Haematology (ICSH). Thirty laboratories that provide a molecular diagnostic service participated in
Adrenaline stimulates glucagon secretion in pancreatic A-cells by increasing the Ca2+ current and the number of granules close to the L-type Ca2+ channels
We have monitored electrical activity, voltage-gated Ca2+ currents, and exocytosis in single rat glucagon-secreting pancreatic A-cells. The A-cells were electrically excitable and generated spontaneous Na+- and Ca2+-dependent action potentials. Under basal conditions, exocytosis was tightly linked to Ca2+ influx through omega-conotoxin-GVIA-sensitive (N-type) Ca2+ channels. Stimulation of the A-ce
Synthesis of Fused Tertazole- and Imidazole Derivatives via Iodocyclization.
The possibility to prepare fused tetrazole- and imidazole derivatives by iodocyclization in moderate to excellent yields is demonstrated. In some examples the cyclizations were not following Baldwin's rules entirely, i.e. exo-selectivity. Nucleophilic substitution of the formed iodides gave different results depending on the hardness of the nucleophile. Thus, elimination of the iodide could be a p

Probing spin accumulation in Ni/Au/Ni single-electron transistors with efficient spin injection and detection electrodes
We have investigated spin accumulation in Ni/Au/Ni single-electron transistors assembled by atomic force microscopy. The fabrication technique is unique in that unconventional hybrid devices can be realized with unprecedented control, including real-time tunable tunnel resistances. A grid of Au disks, 30 nm in diameter and 30 nm thick, is prepared on a SiO2 surface by conventional e-beam writing.
Unintegrated parton density functions
An overview on activities to determine unintegrated parton density functions is given and the concept and need for unintegrated PDFs is discussed. It is also argued that it is important to reformulate perturbative QCD results in terms of fully unintegrated parton densities, differential in all components of the parton momentum. Also the need for non-linear BFKL evolution is discussed and results u
