Shell-dependent core-level chemical shifts observed in free xenon clusters

Photoelectron and Auger electron spectra following Xe-3d and Xe-4d ionization of free xenon clusters have been measured using synchrotron radiation. The atom-to-surface and atom-to-bulk binding energy shifts found in the Xe-3d and the subsequent M5N4,5N4,5 Auger decay are about 15% larger than those observed in the Xe-4d and N4,5O2,3O2,3 measurements. This experimental result is also considered th

On the systematic position of the genus Cetrariella (Parmeliaceae: Ascomycotina) indicated by ITS rDNA data.

A preliminary systematic position of the genus Cetrariella based on sequences from the ITS region is discussed. Cetrariella delisei and C. fastigiata appear as not very closely related species. Both species form a monophyletic sister group to Cetraria and should presumably stay as a separate segregate. The evidences from morphological data and data from secondary chemistry, however, strongly suppo

Haverikommission granskade karotiskirurgins komplikationer. Hälften kunde förklaras med misstag eller tveksamma indikationer

As carotid endarterectomy is a prophylactic procedure, it would seem particularly important to analyze complications with an aim to avoiding them. All carotid endarterectomies in Sweden are registered, and all serious complications (death and permanent neurological deficit) are analyzed in detail, classified and discussed within the profession. During the period 1994-1996 the frequency was 4.3 per

Potential barrier effects in Cs 3d resonance photoemission of CsF

We present and discuss the Cs 3d X-ray absorption spectra and resonant photoelectron emission spectra of CsF. The resonant photoelectron spectra excited at the Cs 3d absorption maxima, exhibit a strong resonance behavior. The different behaviour of participator and spectator channels and interference effects of the 4d partial photoionisation cross-section at the 3d resonances are discussed. The ex

Vasodilation effect of atropine on rat mesenteric artery

AIM: To study the vasodilation effect of atropine and its mechanism. METHODS: Isometric tension was recorded in isolated rat super mesenteric arteries precontracted by noradrenaline (NE) to study the vasodilation effect of atropine, and to investigate the role of endothelial cell and vascular smooth muscle cell on vasodilation. RESULTS: Atropine was shown to significantly dilate the endothelium-in

Serum cystatin C advantageous compared with serum creatinine in the detection of mild but not severe diabetic nephropathy.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether serum cystatin C is more accurate than serum creatinine in the detection of diabetic nephropathy, also after adjustment for age.METHODS: Forty-one patients with type 1 and 82 patients with type 2 diabetes were evaluated with serum creatinine, serum cystatin C, and (51)Cr-EDTA clearance (reference method). Cystatin C was measured by a particle-enhanced turbidimetric

Adaptive optics schemes for future extremely large telescopes

The adaptive optics for any telescope in the 25- to 100-m class will be complex. It is believed that adaptive optics should, to the maximum extent, be designed as an integrated part of a telescope. The proposed Swedish 50-m Extremely Large Telescope is considered here to illustrate the principle of integrated adaptive optics. Two alternative designs both using the Ritchey-Chretien telescope system

The temporal coordination of articulator movements: Are coarticulation and assimilation really synonymous?

The transition model (i) of classical phonetics distinguished between inevitable transitions between momentary target configurations (called coarticulation by Menzerath and Lacerda in 1933) and assimilation extending over a larger domain than a transition, implying reorganization of the input. By the 1950s it was clear that coarticulation extended beyond target configurations and involved more tha

Barns minnesprestationer i rättsprocessen

Two important contexts for children in forensic processes are their performance in interviews and their identification performance in lineups. Another important question concerns the validity (or realism) in children’s confidence in the extent to which they correctly remember an event or a person. This paper reviews the current state of research on strengths and weaknesses in children’s testimony

Trace gas exchange in a high-arctic valley 3. Integrating and scaling CO2 fluxes from canopy to landscape using flux data, footprint modeling, and remote sensing

Within the framework of the European Land Arctic Physical Processes project and as part of the Danish Research Council's Polar Program, a study on trace gas exchange in a high-arctic ecosystem was conducted in NE Greenland, May-August 1997. On the basis of carbon dioxide flux measurements from three dominant surface types, this paper reports on the upscaling of such measurements from canopy to lan

Highly deformed band in Nd-138

High-spin states in Nd-138 have been investigated with the reaction Zr-94(Ca-48,4n), using the GASP array. A new rotational band has been identified, which has close similarities with the well known highly deformed bands of the lighter Nd isotopes, and is therefore interpreted as built on the second minimum of the nuclear potential energy surface. From comparison with calculations a configuration

Thermotropic phase behaviour of long-chain alkylmaltosides

The thermotropic phase behaviour and phase structure of crystalline and non-crystalline n-tetradecyl-beta-D-maltoside (C(14)G(2)) and n-hexadecyl-beta-D-maltoside (C(16)G(2)) have been investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray techniques. Upon lyophilisation, both compounds form a solid, lamellar phase comprising disordered head groups and hexagonally packed alkyl chains
