Depression after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is common (up to 40%) and increases risk of cardiac morbidity and mortality in the first year by more than two fold. However, current scarcity of data on etiopathogenesis of post-CABG depression hampers development of prevention or treatment strategies of post-CABG depression. “Vascular Depression” hypothesis posits that cerebrovascul...

A Colorful Wake for Gerhard Soff

Abstract. We calculate the wake induced in a hot QCD plasma by a fast parton in the framework of linear response theory. We discuss two scenarios: (i) a weakly coupled quark-gluon plasma described by hard-thermal loop perturbation theory and (ii) a strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma which resembles a quantum liquid. We show that a Mach cone can appear in the second scenario, but not in the fir...

In dealing with a large-scale system, one usually does not have adequate knowledge of the plant parameters and interactions among subsystems. The decentralized adaptive technique, designed independently for local subsystems and using locally available signals for feedback propose, is an appropriate strategy to be employed. In the context of decentralized adaptive control, a number of results ha...
