Transmission electron microscopy has been used to observe craters produced 7 on Al, Cu and Au at room temperature by the impact of Ar clusters. Irradiations were made at normal incidence with Ar clusters of either 100 or 1000 atoms having an energy of 100 keV. The probability of a cluster to make a crater decreases with increasing target atomic mass or density, At a given total energy, the prob...

quṭb al-dīn shīrāzī wrote several huge works not only on mathematical sciences and philosophy, but also on medicine: a commentary on volume 1 of ibn sīnā’s al-qānūn fī al-ṭibb entitled al-tuḥfa al-saʿdīya in nine volumes. this is not surprising because quṭb al-dīn came from a family of physicians and he received medical education in his youth by reading ibn sīnā’s qānūn. this enormous commentar...

This paper begins a series studying D-modules on the Feigin-Frenkel semi-infinite flag variety from the perspective of the Beilinson-Drinfeld factorization (or chiral) theory. Here we calculate Whittaker-twisted cohomology groups of Zastava spaces, which are certain finite-dimensional subvarieties of the affine Grassmannian. We show that such cohomology groups realize the nilradical of a Borel ...

the fundamental role of discourse and its positive and negative effects in personal and social interactions is known to everyone. this is why religions and denominations have always relied on discourse, especially when it is beyond the boundaries of personal concerns and by the expansion of its domain, have stressed on the vital position and particular role of discourse in the fate of humanity....

Islamic medical jurisprudence, which is the subjectconcemed with the application of Islamic laws to the area of medicine, has never been discussed as an independent field of jurisprudence, although several selected topics, especially those concerning food and beverages, sexuality, death, wounds and injuries, and doctor-patient relations have been more discussed than others. The results of a...

Growth curve analyses were used to investigate parents' and peers' influence on adolescents' choice to abstain from antisocial behavior in a community-based sample of 416 early adolescents living in the Southeastern United States. Participants were primarily European American (91%) and 51% were girls. Both parents and peers were important influences on the choice to abstain from antisocial beha...

AS THE CONTRIBUTORS in this volume colourfully illustrate, it is no small task to ensure legal certainty in transnational commerce, and the challenge becomes increasingly acute as commercial exchange becomes ever more globalised. One might expect, however, that the diamond industry would remain largely unaffected by this trend of globalisation. Because diamonds are easily portable, universally ...

MOTIVATION Random effects models have recently been introduced as an approach for analyzing genome wide association studies (GWASs), which allows estimation of overall heritability of traits without explicitly identifying the genetic loci responsible. Using this approach, Yang et al. (2010) have demonstrated that the heritability of height is much higher than the ~10% associated with identified...
