Zone determinant expansions for nuclear lattice simulations

We consider quantum simulations of nuclear matter on the lattice. In particular, we address the problem of calculating the contribution of nucleon/nucleon-hole loops at nonzero nucleon density. With the help of auxiliary boson fields, all nucleon interactions can be written in terms of one-body interactions in a fluctuating background. In the grand canonical ensemble, the contribution of nucleo...

EHPnet: Disease-free Zone

Mothers of a population-based series of 86 children with osteosarcoma or chondrosarcoma were traced and their health status or cause of death ascertained. There were 6 cases of breast cancer among these mothers and 6 other cancers. Risk of breast cancer was approximately three times that expected, and appeared to be highest in mothers of boys and in mothers of children under the median age at d...

Nuclear war between Israel and Iran: lethality beyond the pale

BACKGROUND The proliferation of nuclear technology in the politically volatile Middle East greatly increases the likelihood of a catastrophic nuclear war. It is widely accepted, while not openly declared, that Israel has nuclear weapons, and that Iran has enriched enough nuclear material to build them. The medical consequences of a nuclear exchange between Iran and Israel in the near future are...
