Evidence for a critical end point in [111]-stressed RbCaF3

2014 In RbCaF3, a [111] stress 03C3 > 03C3E induces an Ising line separating the pseudo-cubic from the trigonal phase which impinges at finite angle on a first-order boundary to the tetragonal phase. Thus, a critical end point (CEP) occurs sited at 03C3E = 0.10 ± 0.01 kbar and TE = 196.3 ± 0.1 K. The discontinuity jump of the order parameter along this boundary is monotonous across the CEP...

The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: performance study using an end-to-end simulation tool

We present results from a GEANT4-based Monte Carlo tool for end-to-end simulations of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase detector which measures both the scintillation light and the ionisation charge generated in liquid xenon by interacting particles and radiation. The software models the instrument response to radioactive backgrounds and calibration sources, inclu...

[End-of-life care: a public health matter].

In a way that is indicative of the broad consensus surrounding this question, the newly-elected Québec government reopened the issue of end-of-life care exactly where the PQ government it defeated had left it. It did so by having Bill 52, an Act respecting end-of-life care, adopted. By a vote of 94 to 22, with no abstentions, Québec’s National Assembly approved the Bill prepared by the former g...
