High-redshift, dust-obscured galaxies, selected to be luminous in the radio but relatively faint at 850 m, appear to represent a different population from the ultraluminous submillimeter-bright population. They may be star-forming galaxies with hotter dust temperatures, or they may have lower far-infrared luminosities and larger contributions from obscured active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Here we...

Superplastic forming (SPF) is conducted in a heated, pressurized die where direct monitoring of critical SPF parameters is extremely difficult. Numerical models provide a critical means of tracking the forming process, allowing the applied gas pressure to be adjusted to maintain optimum SPF behavior throughout the forming process. This paper describes how the MARC finite element code was used t...

INTRODUCTION A retropharyngeal abscess is a potentially life-threatening infection in the deep space of the neck, which can compromise the airway. Its management requires highly specialized care, including surgery and intensive care, to reduce mortality. This is the first case of a gas-forming abscess reported from this region, but not the first such report in the literature. CASE PRESENTATIO...

Submitted for the MAR16 Meeting of The American Physical Society Fe-catalyzed etching of graphene layers GUANGJUN CHENG, IRENE CALIZO, ANGELA HIGHT WALKER, NIST, PML, NIST TEAM — We investigate the Fe-catalyzed etching of graphene layers in forming gas. Fe thin films are deposited by sputtering onto mechanically exfoliated graphene, few-layer graphene (FLG), and graphite flakes on a Si/SiO2 sub...

The complex carbon chemistry necessary for astrobiology in the ISM depends partially on the C + H3 + reaction. Gas-phase astrochemical models use a classically calculated thermal rate coefficient for the reaction C+H3 + forming CH; additionally, those models consider the CH2 + and CH3 + channels to be closed. However, new laboratory data have shown the CH2 + channel to be open; additionally, th...

Context. Extrasolar giant planets are found to orbit their host stars with a broad range of semi-major axes 0.02 ≤ a ≤ 6 AU. Current theories suggest that giant planets orbiting at distances between ≃ 0.02 – 2 AU probably formed at larger distances and migrated to their current locations via type II migration, disturbing any inner system of forming terrestrial planets along the way. Migration p...

A 70-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus presented with weakness and poor oral intake for 1 month. On physical examination, he was febrile and had mild right upper quadrant tenderness. The patient’s white cell count was 14,900/mm, with 79.0% neutrophils. A chest radiograph showed an air-fluid level in the right-upper abdomen (Fig. 1). Computed tomography (CT) revealed a huge gas-fo...

Formation of low-cost high-quality contacts is the key to cost-effective silicon solar cells. Screen-printing is widely used in Industry because it is simple, low-cost and rapid. However, cost and throughput gains are attained at the expense of performance. IFill factors of most commercial cells are in the range of 0.68-75 for single crystalline material. This paper shows that a rapid 400°C/0.5...
