چکیده

Analysis ofthe births that occurred in England and Wales during 1970-6 showed that they followed a seven-day cycle, being concentrated from Tuesdays to Fridays and least numerous on Sundays. This pattern became increasingly pronounced during the period examined. Relatively few births occurred on bank holidays, especially Christmas Day and Boxing Day. In general perinatal mortality was higher among babies born at weekends than among those born on weekdays. It is likely that the pattern seen in the numbers of births is associated to a large extent with elective intervention. It is not possible to draw any conclusions about the pattern seen in perinatal mortality as so far the analysis has been confined to crude rates.

The Reactive Chemisorption of Carbon Dioxide at Mg(100) Surface

X-ray photoelectron and electron energy loss spectroscopic (XPS-EELS) studies reveal that the following species are present when a mixture of CO2 and water vapour is exposed to the clean Mg(100) surface at 110K: CO3(a), C(a) CH(a), OH(a). The reactive chemisorptions of CO2 and H2O vapour coadsorbed on a Mg surface ...

Coadsorption of Dioxygen and Carbon Monoxide on a Mg(100) Surface

The activation of carbon monoxide by oxygen on Mg(100) surface has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Carbon monoxide is only weakly adsorbed (dispersion-type forces) on a magnesium surface. The XPS result has shown that the dissociation of carbon monoxide leading to the formation of a metastable surface carbonate species occurs through the participation of an oxyg...
