2014 We show that the assumptions of critical scaling imply essential singularities in the limit where Tc = 0 and power laws of the temperature for Tc 0 which are appropriate to describe realistic physical situations such as e.g. heavy fermions. We discuss also the effects of a dimensional cross-over as well as that of dilution and disorder. J. Phys. France 49 (1988) 1211-1217 JUILLET 1988, Cla...

Our galaxy contains an interesting stream of stars that may represent the disruption of a previous small satellite galaxy as it merged with the Milky Way. Forbes et al. (p. 1217) used the Keck 10-meter telescope and the Hubble Space telescope to obtain direct evidence for such merger processes in the Tadpole Galaxy UGC 10214. They observed the stretching of the colliding dwarf galaxy into a cha...

The hair follicle undergoes a lifelong developmental cycle that depends on the integration between activating and inhibitory signals acting to regulate and guide the proliferation and differentiation of pluripotent epithelial stem cells. The effectors and mechanisms responsible for re-entry of quiescent telogen hair follicles into the hair-producing anagen stage in mature skin remain incomplete...

Automatic chord recognition systems operating in the large-vocabulary regime must overcome data scarcity: certain classes occur much less frequently than others, and this presents a significant challenge when estimating model parameters. While most systems model the chord recognition task as a (multi-class) classification problem, few attempts have been made to directly exploit the intrinsic st...

Methods 1217 patients with BAV were treated in the Institute during 2003−2012. There were 902 (74.1%) males. Patients age ranged from 3 days to 76 years, mean 50.2 ± 9,8 years. Aneurysm of ascending aorta took place in 380 (31.2%) pts, 39 (10,3%) of them admitted with dissection. We use: balloon valvuloplasty in 82 (8.1%) patients. Different operative interventions were fulfilled to the rest :1...

The aim of this postal survey was to assess the utilization, knowledge and attitude concerning sealants among Malaysian dentists. A pretested questionnaire was sent to all dentists (1217) who were on the Dentist Register of Malaysia of 1987. A response rate of 61.1% was obtained. The results indicate that 52.6% of the respondents have used sealants, but of these only 13.6% have used them freque...

Three dimensional rapid large depth range imaging of the anterior segments of the human eye by an optical frequency domain imaging system is presented. The tunable source spans from 1217 to 1356 nm with an average output power of 60 mW providing a measured axial resolution of 10 mum in air based on the coherence envelope. The effective depth range is 4 mm, defined as the distance over which the...

Retinoids, such as all-traneretinoic acid and 9-cisretinoic acid, are naturally occurring ligands of the nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs). In concert with binding of ligand, these receptors form heterodimers with the retinoic X receptor (RXR) and transactivate RAR/RXR-responsive genes. Retinoids can differentiate leukemic cell lines in vitro and induce clinically complete remissions in pa...
