Newer Insights into the Prsevention of the Common Cold

Since most colds are self-limiting, symptoms will usually resolve on their own in seven to ten days. For the majority of patients, treatment is symptomatic and targeted at the most bothersome symptoms. Specific nonprescription therapy may relieve cold symptoms but should be used with caution, especially in at-risk patient populations. Patients should monitor for worsening symptoms, and progress...

Exact numerical methods for electron-phonon prob- lems

In the last few years solid state physics has increasingly benefited from scientific computing and the significance of numerical techniques is likely to keep on growing quickly in this field. Because of the high complexity of solids, which are made of a huge number of interacting electrons and nuclei, a full understanding of their properties cannot be developed using analytical methods only. Nu...

Structured Models for Cell Populations: Direct and Inverse Prob- lems

Structured population models in biology lead to integro-differential equations that describe the evolution in time of the population density taking into account a given feature such as the age, the size, or the volume. These models possess interesting analytic properties and have been used extensively in a number of areas. In this article, we consider a size-structured model for cell division a...
