Detailed studies are reported on the photoluminescence of InAsSb/ InAs multiple quantum wells grown by molecular beam epitaxy on InAs substrates with the Sb mole fraction ranging from 0.06 to 0.13. From 4 K photoluminescence the band alignment was determined to be staggered type II. By comparing the emission peak energies with a transition energy calculation it was found that both the conductio...

OBJECTIVE To compare the differences of diagnostic rates, of the two widely used test positions, in measuring vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP) and selecting the most appropriate analytical method for diagnostic criteria for the patients with vertigo. METHODS Thirty-two patients with vertigo were tested in two comparative testing positions: turning the head to the opposite side of ...

Based on the histopathologic origin, malignant maxillary neoplasms may share some clinical characteristics but have different biological behavior, treatments, and prognoses. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between CT characteristics and tissue origin of primary maxillary cancer (MC). A retrospective review of CT findings was performed in patients diagnosed with MC be...

Lossless bowed strings have usually been thought to possess a motion discovered by Helmholtz in 1863. However, it was shown [Acustica 44, 194-206 {1980)] by the author that a more complicated standing wave motion, the $ motion, exists on such strings provided both the bowing distance and bowing force are above certain minimum values. This paper explores S-motion harmonics which give arise to wa...

We propose an expressive performance model for celtic fiddle based on the analysis of audio and bowing gestures of real performances. Existing expressivity models deal with perceptual features such as timing deviations or dynamics, but in some cases perceptual features are not enough. We propose a model not only informed with perceptual features but also with bowing gestures which are acquired ...

Introduction Three-dimensional image data of the human body can provide much information to the medical field and 3D simulated navigation surgery is popular in total knee arthroplasty. However, very little study has been conducted in the upper extremity including the hand. Non union of the lateral condyle fracture combined with cubitus valgus deformity often results in a painful elbow together ...

We consider the baryon octet and decuplet magnetic moments in a simultaneous expansion in ms and 1/N taking NF /N ∼ 1, where N is the number of QCD colors and NF is the number of light quark flavors. At leading order in this expansion, the magnetic moments obey the non-relativistic quark-model relations. We compute corrections to these relations using an effective lagrangian formalism which res...

Case presentation A 6-month-old infant presented with a longstanding persistent cough, episodic spells of shortness of breath, gasping-like efforts after feeding, and an unusual noise while breathing, and was reported to have turned blue on two occasions after feeding. A chest X-ray showed significant narrowing of the trachea 2 cm above the carina. An upper gastro-intestinal study (Fig. 1) show...
