Evidentiary means in feudal Transylvania. Ordeal By fire (holding a red-hot iron)

A Case of Suicidal Perforation of the Stomach by a Red-Hot Iron, with Remarks

Forest-fire detection by means of lidar

Lidar is a promising tool for forest-fire monitoring because, due to its very high sensitivity and spatial resolution, this active detection technique enables efficient location of small smoke plumes that originate from forest fires in the early stages of development during both day and night and over a considerable range. Earlier experiments carried out by the authors testify that small fires ...

Assessing evidentiary value in fire debris analysis by chemometric and likelihood ratio approaches.

Results are presented from support vector machine (SVM), linear and quadratic discriminant analysis (LDA and QDA) and k-nearest neighbors (kNN) methods of binary classification of fire debris samples as positive or negative for ignitable liquid residue. Training samples were prepared by computationally mixing data from ignitable liquid and substrate pyrolysis databases. Validation was performed...

The Measurement of the Circulating Red Cell Volume by Means of Two Radioactive Isotopes of Iron.

Catalytic Oxidation by Means of Complex Iron

The observation of Manchot? that sodium pentacyano-ammineferroate2 I absorbs oxygen has led Baudisch and his coworkers3 to study the catalytic action of this salt, as well as of its water analogue II, in the oxidation of pyrimidines and purines. The present authors have previously reported in this journal4 on the nature of the oxidation products obtained. In the present paper the problem is con...
