The objective of this study was to compare the growth of three Leucadendrons (Proteaceae) cultivars (`Safari Sunset', `Orot' and `Meir') fertigated with three levels of P. The plants were grown in tuff (pyroclastic material, characterized by high porosity) in 10 l pots and fertigated daily. The experiment included control treatment (plants irrigated with tap water) and three levels of P (0, 10 ...

Condensing osteitis of the clavicle is a benign disorder leading to osteosclerosis of the medial end of the clavicle. The differential diagnosis between condensing osteitis of the clavicle and ischaemic necrosis of the medial clavicular epiphysis (Friedrich's disease), osteoid osteoma, and low grade osteomyelitis can be difficult. In the case history reported here, magnetic resonance imaging wa...

Bone condensing as a technique to prepare an implant site is demonstrated on a patient who was to undergo orthodontic treatment utilizing a palatal implant as an anchor. Based on the anatomic constraints of the palate and the desire to load the implant as axially as possible, adapted-instrumentation for bone condensing is presented. Bone condensing for preparation of the implant site in soft ma...

In this paper level-cut measures of noncompactness are introduced in standard fuzzy normed spaces and condensing operators are studied. Using the extensions of nonlinear compact operators, topological degree theory with respect to condensing operators is given in standard fuzzy normed spaces. As an application of degree theory, a fixed point theorem for condensing operators is presented. © 2009...

A most interesting feature of certain fractional quantum Hall states is that their quasiparticles obey non-Abelian fractional statistics. So far, candidate non-Abelian wave functions have been constructed from conformal blocks in cleverly chosen conformal field theories. In this work we present a hierarchy scheme by which we can construct daughter states by condensing non-Abelian quasiparticles...

We fill the gap in understanding the relationship between mappings which are condensing w.r.t. the measure of noncompactness defined on the hyperspace and multifunctions condensing in the ordinary sense.
