متن کاملEntanglement Witnesses in Spin Models
We construct entanglement witnesses using fundamental quantum operators of spin models which contain two-particle interactions and have a certain symmetry. By choosing the Hamiltonian as such an operator, our method can be used for detecting entanglement by energy measurement. We apply this method to the Heisenberg model in a cubic lattice with a magnetic field, the XY model and other familiar ...
متن کاملJehovah's Witnesses in A&E.
J ehovah’s Witnesses of all ages who present to emergency departments requiring blood transfusion continue to pose significant ethical and legal dilemmas for clinicians.

For religious reasons, Jehovah's witnesses refuse transfusion of blood products (red cells, platelets, plasma), but may accept organ transplantation. The authors developed a multidisciplinary protocol for liver transplantation in Jehovah's witnesses. In a 6-year period, nine Jehovah's witness patients were listed for liver transplantation. They received preoperative erythropoietin therapy, with...
