A Balloon Tipped Catheter for Obtaining His Bundle Electrograms Without
A technique for recording His bundle activity in man without fluoroscopic guidance is described. Balloon tipped triOr tetrapolar catheters were designed with pacing electrodes located at the catheter tip, and two fine sensing electrodes 4 and 5 cm behind it. The catheter tip was preformed into a "J" curve. Following percutaneous transfemoral insertion, the catheter is floated to the right ventr...
متن کاملMagnetization of polar ice: a measurement of terrestrial dust and extraterrestrial fallout
Laboratory-induced remanent magnetization of polar ice constitutes a measurement of the magnetization carried by the ferromagnetic dust particles in the ice. This non-destructive technique provides a novel kind of information on the dust deposited on the surface of polar ice sheets. Measurements made on ice samples from Greenland (North GRIP ice core) and Antarctica (Vostok and EPICA-Dome C ice...
متن کاملJovian dust streams: Probes of the Io plasma torus
Jupiter was discovered to be a source of high speed dust particles by the Ulysses spacecraft in 1992. These dust particles originate from the volcanic plumes on Io. They collect electrostatic charges from the plasma environment, gain energy from the co-rotating electric field of the magnetosphere, and leave Jupiter with escape speeds over 200 kms. The dust streams were also observed by the Gali...
متن کاملInfrared Spectroscopy of Extraterrestrial Material : Comparison with Astronomical Spectra of Dust
Introduction: As part of our ongoing project to identify astronomical dust, we obtained infrared spectra of minerals and components from primitive meteorites. The aim is to produce a database of spectra for comparison with infrared spectra from dust in space, e.g. in circumstellar or protoplanetary disks. We think that minerals from primitive extraterrestrial material are well suited for this p...
متن کاملExtraterrestrial microbiology.
I N T H E E F F O R T of devising ways and means of studying the existence of living organisms on other planets, attention must be focussed on microorganisms. This is not entirely due to professi,onal prejudice of microbiology, but is the consequence of accepted realization that microorganisms are responsible for the major amount of turnover of matter on earth and that life of the higher plants...
