Damped wave diffusion effects during oxygen transport in islets of Langerhans is studied. Simultaneous reaction and diffusion models were developed. The asymptotic limits of first and zeroth order in Michaelis and Menten kinetics was used in the study. Parabolic Fick diffusion and hyperbolic damped wave diffusion were studied separately. Method of relativistic transformation was used in order t...

Although the Cold + Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) cosmology provides perhaps the best t of any model to all the available data at the current epoch, CHDM produces structure at relatively low redshifts and thus could be ruled out if there were evidence for formation of massive objects at high redshifts. Damped Ly systems are abundant in quasar absorption spectra and thus provide possibly the most signi...
