Pecharroman5 1CINN-CSIC, Oviedo, Spain; 2USC, Santiago, Spain; 3GSI, Darmstadt, Germany; 4LIP, Coimbra, Portugal; 5ICMM-CSIC, Madrid, Spain Avalanches in timing RPCs release an average charge q̄ ≃ 1.5 − 3 pC per gap, slightly depending on the geometry, gas and field [1]. An RPC must be therefore able to evacuate the char...

What are they? In human health it is generally the case that the more people studied, and the longer the surveillance of them, the greater the number of new occurrences of any specified condition there are likely to be. This is because of the increase in total time ‘at risk’ of having an event, that is, the increased persons-and-time of observation. A rate is an arithmetic way of quantifying th...

The charge-transfer complexation reaction between iodine and dibenzo- 18-crown- 6 (DB18C6) has been studied spectrophotometrically in chloroform solution at different temperatures. The resulting donor-acceptor complex was formulated as (DB 18C6…I )I . The spectrophotometric results , as well as the conductivity measurements, indicated that the gradual release of tiiodide ion from its contac...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The significance of road mobility in any nation cannot be far-fetched or beyond economic purpose, spatial interaction and social integration. It contributes enormously to the livelihood of human existence most especially by facilitating regional complementarity of trade, intervening opportunities, and spatial transferability. The objective of this stu...

purpose: to compare the success rate of mitomycin-c versus bevacizumab for prevention of bleb failure following phacotrabeculectomy. method: in this study 74 eyes of 69 patients with uncontrolled iop, progressive visual field loss and cataract were randomized in two groups. in the first group, after conjunctival peritomy at the sclera flap site, sponge pats soaked in mitomycin c with concentrat...

A 1D electrochemical, lumped thermal model is used to explore pulse power limitations and thermal behavior of a 6 Ah, 72 cell, 276 V nominal i-ion hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV) battery pack. Depleted/saturated active material Li surface concentrations in the negative/positive electrodes onsistently cause end of high-rate (∼25 C) pulse discharge at the 2.7 V cell−1 minimum limit, indicating soli...

background: although many efforts made for the advancement of medical science, it is distributed inequitably despite of all existing financial and human resources facilities. children as the most important and vulnerable groups of society are influenced by these inequities. the objective of this study is comparison of children health indices in rich and poor rural zones in mashhad/iran. methods...

conclusion our findings support prone positioning for premature infants. therefore, it is advisable to nicu staff that if there is no obstacle for changing the infant’s position, prone position in infants with respiratory complications during receiving n-cpap in nicu can be useful. regarding the fact that prone position is a risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome , prone position should b...

steelmaking slag of mobarakeh steel company (msc) has a high iron content which makes it unsuitable for conventional slag recovery; as in cement industries. on the other hand, eaf slag in this company is almost free of zinc because of using more than 90 percent dri in the charge. therefore, removal or recovery of iron from the slag can be a suitable solution to slag recovery in this company. in...
