Further evidence for the presence of an anomaly in binding energies for the "island of inversion" centered at Z =11, N =21 is obtained by comparison of shell-model calculations to experiment. The calculations were done with a shell-model interaction that is applicable to nuclei with active valence nucleons in both the (1s,Od) and (Of, lp) major shells. This interaction is described in detail as...
متن کاملManual versus powered toothbrushing for oral health.
BACKGROUND Specific oral bacteria, generically known as "dental plaque" are the primary cause of gingivitis (gum disease) and caries. The removal of dental plaque is thought to play a key role in the maintenance of oral health. There is conflicting evidence for the relative merits of manual and powered toothbrushing in achieving this. OBJECTIVES To compare manual and powered toothbrushes in r...
