Consequences of t-channel unitarity for γ (*) p and γ (*) γ (*) amplitudes. We show that t-channel unitarity constraints make it possible to obtain the photon-photon cross sections from the photon-proton and proton-proton cross sections, for Q 2 < 150 GeV 2. In order to do so, one must postulate the existence of double-pole or triple-pole singularities in the complex j plane. It is an old resul...

Strategic national stockpile: overview and ventilator assets.

Acquiring a resupply of critical medical assets following a national emergency will be crucial to saving lives. The Strategic National Stockpile is a national repository of various medications, vaccines, antidotes, and medical/surgical equipment that would be used to augment federal, state, and local public health agencies in the event of a terrorist attack or other public health emergency. Por...

Temperature of gas delivered from ventilators

BACKGROUND Although heated humidifiers (HHs) are the most efficient humidifying device for mechanical ventilation, some HHs do not provide sufficient humidification when the inlet temperature to the water chamber is high. Because portable and home-care ventilators use turbines, blowers, pistons, or compressors to inhale in ambient air, they may have higher gas temperature than ventilators with ...
