EXPERIMENTS SHOWING THAT THE RONTGEN RAYS CANNOT BE POLARIZED BY DOUBLY REFRACTING MEDIA

Rontgen Rays in Dermatology

r The authors of this book on the value of " Rontgen days !" Dermatology," unfortunately for English readers, Ascribe only the different kinds of German apparatus, instead of giving the type of apparatus employed in a particular case. The section on X-ray dermatitis and the biological effects of X-rays is excellent and is illustrated by coloured plates. The chapters deal with the affections of ...

Aspherical manifolds that cannot be triangulated

Although Kirby and Siebenmann [13] showed that there are manifolds which do not admit PL structures, the possibility remained that all manifolds could be triangulated. In the late seventies Galewski and Stern [10] constructed a closed 5–manifold M 5 so that every n–manifold, with n 5, can be triangulated if and only if M 5 can be triangulated. Moreover, M 5 admits a triangulation if and only if...

Needle Variations that Cannot be Summed

A Category Test that Cannot be Manipulated∗

In Dekel and Feinberg (2004) we suggested a test for discovering whether a potential expert is informed of the distribution of a stochastic process. This category test requires predicting a “small”– category I – set of outcomes. In this paper we show that under the continuum hypothesis there is a category test that cannot be manipulated, i.e. such that no matter how the potential expert randomi...

Dissipative solitons that cannot be trapped.

We show that dissipative solitons in systems with high-order nonlinear dissipation cannot survive in the presence of trapping potentials of the rigid wall or asymptotically increasing type. Solitons in such systems can survive in the presence of a weak potential but only with energies out of the interval of existence of linear quantum mechanical stationary states.
