In this note, we present a Γ-convergence type result for ferromagnetic films. We propose a model of films for which we could ensure the strong convergence of minimizers when the exchange parameter vanishes. In this model, the plate thickness is kept constant and the magnetization stays constant in the thickness of the film.

We consider the Gamma limit of the Abelian Chern-SimonsHiggs energy

Crops which are stored for more than a few days become a potential target for mould growth and mycotoxin formation by the species Aspergillus. The present study investigated an effective extraction, clean up and analysis methodology for aflatoxins, amino acids and fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) in rice (Oryza sativa L) samples collected from Faisalabad Division, Pakistan The extraction solvent...

Abstract Sorption properties of Greek bentonites and zeolites were investigated in raw form after irradiation for removal Cs, Co Eu from aqueous solutions using 137 60 152 as tracers γ-spectroscopy. The sorption experiments undertaken under different conditions (pH, concentration, competitive ions temperature). structural changes the sorbents due to metal examined through XRD, FTIR SEM/EDS. iso...

A single cell can form a colony, and ionizing irradiation has long been known to reduce such a cellular clonogenic potential. Analysis of abortive colonies unable to continue to grow should provide important information on the reproductive cell death (RCD) following irradiation. Our previous analysis with a branching process model showed that the RCD in normal human fibroblasts can persist over...

Using a complex technique intravital microscopic observation, motor activity apparatus studied. frequency main types epithelial cells in layer determined on histological sections stained with hema...

The Columbia University RABiT (Rapid Automated Biodosimetry Tool) quantifies DNA damage using fingerstick volumes of blood. One RABiT protocol quantifies the total γ-H2AX fluorescence per nucleus, a measure of DNA double strand breaks (DSB) by an immunofluorescent assay at a single time point. Using the recently extended RABiT system, that assays the γ-H2AX repair kinetics at multiple time poin...

We study the asymptotic behaviour in terms of Γ-convergence of the following one dimensional energy

The effects of prenatal low-dose irradiation with heavy ions on embryonic development in mice and on melanocyte differentiation are not well understood. We performed whole-body irradiation of pregnant C57BL/10J mice at embryonic Day 9 (E9) with a single dose of γ-rays, silicon, argon or iron ions. The number of living embryos and embryonic body weight at E18 decreased after exposure to heavy io...
