Current observations from a shelf sea, continental slopes and the abyssal North-East Atlantic Ocean are all dominated by the semidiurnal lunar (M2) tide. It is shown that motions at M2 vary at usually large barotropic and coherent baroclinic scales, >50 km horizontally and >0.5 H vertically. H represents the waterdepth. Such M2-scales are observed even close to topography, the potential source ...

Immunochemical quantitative determination of a lipid antigen, ganglioside GM2, has been developed, based on the inhibition of the immune lysis of liposomes containing the antigen in their lipid bilayer. It has been shown that the full expression of the antigenicity of the competing lipid requires its dispersion in accessory lipids. The assay of inhibition of liposome lysis can be used also for ...

A new world volume theory with a free scalar field was proposed for Multiple M2 branes recently. By giving the free scalar a large VEV, we can obtain a gauge theory of multiple D2 branes with a coupling constant proportional to the VEV. It is pointed out by Banerjee and Sen that we can get D2 branes by choosing a compactification in the θ direction, with radial position having the same value of...
