We consider power corrections due to a finite top-quark mass M t to the production of a Higgs bo-son pair within the Standard Model at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD. Previous calculations for this process and at this precision were done in the limit of an inifinitely heavy top quark. Our results for the inclusive production cross section at NLO include terms up to O 1/M 12 t. We present th...

Dilepton production in pp and Au+Au nucleus-nucleus collisions at √ s = 200 GeV as well as in In+In and Pb+Au at 158 A·GeV is studied within the microscopic HSD transport approach. A comparison to the data from the PHENIX Collaboration at RHIC shows that standard in-medium effects of the ρ, ω vector mesons compatible with the NA60 data for In+ In at 158 A·GeV and the CERES data for Pb+Au at 158...

Test compression technology was adopted to enable additional scan patterns to be applied without changing the test interface. However, test compression and test approaches can also be used to reduce the ATE (automatic test equipment) and tester interface requirements. As a result, not only can existing testers be used to apply additional tests, the test interface can be reduced to a very small ...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate effects of different levels of mineral and vitamin premixes with wheat and corn base diets on performance and egg traits of laying hens. experiment carried out as 2*5 factorial include wheat and corn base diets and 5 levels of minerals and vitamin premixes (0, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45 and 0.55 percentage) in a completely randomized design with 360 hi-line (w36)...

abstract             the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ajowan essential oils (aeo) on rumen fermentation using in vitro gas production. therefore, different doses of aeo (i.e., 0, 150, 300, 450 or 600 ppm) were added to the syringes of the gas production. a typical diet of growing lambs was used as fermentation substrate.  at the first step, the gas production syringes were in...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentrations of clenbuterol residues in the red hair of Chinese Simmental beef cattle following exposure to two doses of clenbuterol for 21 days. This experiment was conducted in six male red pied Chinese Simmental beef cattle which were randomly divided into two groups (n = 3). Groups 1 and 2 were administered clenbuterol at a dose of 16 and 48 μg/kg...

effects of different paclobutrazol concentrations (0, 250, 350 and 450 mgl-1) and plantlet density (80, 100 and 120 plantlet/m2) on minituber production per plantlet in potato cultivar ‘sante’ were investigated in a factorial experiment based upon a randomized complete block design of 4 replications. paclobutrazol (cultar with 250 g/l of active ingredient) was used as foliar application at earl...
