Mn-based full Heusler compounds possess well-defined local atomic Mn moments, and thus the correlation effects between localized $d$ electrons are expected to play an important role in determining electronic magnetic properties of these materials. Employing ab initio calculations conjunction with constrained random-phase approximation (cRPA) method, we calculate strength effective on-site Coulo...

Abstract Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen commonly found in the environment, including water and plumbing, which may serve as a reservoir of spread. We examined P. carbapenem resistant (CRPA) rates trends recent years. Methods assessed using microbiology data from over 265 hospitals Premier Healthcare Database January 2017 – December 2020. identified cohort inpatie...

Based on an equations–of–motion approach for time–dependent pair correlations in strongly interacting Fermi liquids, we have developed a theory for describing the excitation spectrum of these systems. Compared to the known “correlated” random–phase approximation (CRPA), our approach has the following properties: i) The CRPA is reproduced when pair fluctuations are neglected. ii) The first two e...

Although Chlamydia pneumoniae is an important human pathogen, the antigens eliciting a specific humoral immune response remain elusive. We scrutinized several recombinant chlamydial surface proteins for species-specific recognition by a panel of human sera previously tested for the presence of anti-C. pneumoniae and anti-C. trachomatis antibodies by microimmunofluorescence and enzyme-linked imm...

In the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) both the differential GPS reference station and the airborne user will employ Controlled Reception Pattern Array (CRPA) antennas. In a high precision system such as JPALS, CRPA antennas may suffer phase center biases that introduce significant integrity risk. These phase center biases result from both hardware design and from algorithm ...

The variability of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains (CRPA) isolated from urine and respiratory samples in a large microbiological laboratory, serving several health care settings, and from effluents of two wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) from the same region was assessed by PFGE typing and by resistance to 10 antibiotics. During the 12-month period altogether 213 carbapene...

A characteristic feature of collective and particle-hole excitations in neutron-rich nuclei is that many them couple to unbound neutron continuum single-particle orbits. The random phase approximation (cRPA) a powerful many-body method describes such excitations, it provides scheme evaluate transition strengths from the ground state. In an attempt apply cRPA radiative capture reaction, we formu...

This paper demonstrates a real-time software receiver supporting GPS L1 C/A controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) processing. The software receiver is implemented on a widely-available recent generation multi-core processor and is capable of processing array signals from either radio frequency (RF) front-end modules or collected datasets. Most importantly, the receiver allocates dedicated...
