This paper describes a simple means for embedding a checksum within a FITS header, providing a mechanism for later verifying the integrity of the FITS le. The method uses ASCII coded 32-bit 1's complement arithmetic to force the checksum of each FITS HDU to zero. This technique requires no extension of the FITS standard to be used by any given project, in fact the technique may be used to zero ...

The second author’s ω, ∆, χ conjecture proposes that every graph satisties χ ≤ d 1 2 (∆ + 1 + ω)e. In this paper we prove that the conjecture holds for all claw-free graphs. Our approach uses the structure theorem of Chudnovsky and Seymour. Along the way we discuss a stronger local conjecture, and prove that it holds for claw-free graphs with a three-colourable complement. To prove our results ...

in this study the response of 9 rapeseed genotypes were evaluated at the seedling stage using different irrigation levels (50, 70 and 100% fc). a factorial experiment based on rcbd was conducted in the research greenhouses of urmia university with four replications during summer of 2013. some physiological traits such as relative water content, stomatal conductance, transpiration, photosynthesi...

INTRODUCTION  The aging process provokes structural modifications and functional to it greets, compromising the postural control and central processing. Studies have boarded the necessity to identify to the harmful factors of risk to aged the auditory health and security in stricken aged by auditory deficits and with alterations of balance. OBJECTIVE  To evaluate the effect of auditory prosth...

It is conjectured that a hyperbolic knot complement does not contain a closed embedded totally geodesic surface. In this paper, we show that there are no such surfaces in the complements of hyperbolic 3-bridge knots and double torus knots. Some topological criteria for a closed essential surface failing to be totally geodesic are given. Roughly speaking, sufficiently ‘complicated’ surfaces can ...

1522-8401/$ – see fro doi:10.1016/j.cpem.20 The widespread use of highly effective and safe vaccines against Haemophilus influenzae type b and Streptococcus pneumoniae has impacted the epidemiology of serious bacterial illness in the febrile child. Because of the resultant decline in the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease, one needs to reconsider the evaluation and management of the feb...
