Galaxies in clusters and groups moving through the intracluster or intragroup medium (abbreviated ICM for both) are expected to lose at least a part of their interstellar medium (ISM) by the ram pressure they experience. We perform high resolution 2D hydrodynamical simulations of face-on ram pressure stripping (RPS) of disk galaxies to compile a comprehensive parameter study varying galaxy prop...

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES We present a new method for automatic brain extraction on structural magnetic resonance images, based on a multi-atlas registration framework. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our method addresses fundamental challenges of multi-atlas approaches. To overcome the difficulties arising from the variability of imaging characteristics between studies, we propose a study-specific temp...

Extraction of nickel and its co-extraction with copper from ammoniacal media into emulsion liquid membrane systems (ELMs) was investigated using LIX 84I as the carrier. Measurement of the solute stripped in the internal phase of emulsion opened a new dimension in the study of the ELM extraction processes. The effect of operating parameters such as feed pH, initial feed concentration, and treat ...

The transverse polarization transfer coefficient K~ has been measured for the reaction 'H(d, n)pp at 0 for Ed —42. 8 MeV as a function of breakup neutron energy. For the high-energy neutrons (E„&28 MeV) the average value for E~ is close to 0.6, in conformity with the prediction of a simple stripping or spectator model for polarization transfer in deuteron stripping reactions. Good agreement is ...

In this paper we report some experimental results concerning the stripping in any portion of the optical fibers at 10.6 μm wavelength. These experimental procedures have been performed using a CO2 laser with 40 W power and a galvanometer scanner with 150 mm focal length. The objective of this paper was to find the optimal conditions (speed of the laser along the optical fiber) for a good stripp...

Aims Bone fracture fixation in orthopaedic surgery occurs with the use of implants, such as bone screws. Screws are tightened, typically manually, with the level of tightening depending on surgeons’ manual feel. However, this subjective insertion torque control can lead to overtighening and screw stripping 1 . Previously our group has shown that stripping torque can be predicted based on the to...

A sensitive adsorptive stripping procedure (square wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry), was developed to study the adsorption property of Eosin-Y dye on a working electrode (HMDE) and its determination in selected samples. In addition, differential pulse polarographic and cyclic voltammetric methods were used to evaluate the electrochemical preliminary studies of Eosin-Y dye. By means of usi...

Methidathion, a non-systemic organophosphorous insecticide and acaricide is studied at the hanging mercury drop electrode under cathodic stripping mode by means of cyclic and square-wave voltammetry (SWV). Its electrode reaction is analyzed in the light of recent theory of cathodic stripping processes of insoluble salts of SWV. Its complex electrode mechanism is described by an electrode reacti...
