Letter: Nuclear grooves in intermediate cells

Intermediate mass dileptons in relativistic nuclear collisions

We consider the production of lepton pairs with intermediate masses, in relativistic nuclear collisions. Thermal sources are briefly discussed, as well as a newer production mechanism which involves jet-plasma interactions. Estimates for high pT lepton pairs are provided.

Nuclear transparency to intermediate-energy protons.

Nuclear transparency in the (e, e′p) reaction for 135 ≤ Tp ≤ 800 MeV is investigated using the distorted wave approximation. Calculations using densitydependent effective interactions, both empirical and theoretical, are compared with phenomenological optical potentials. We find that nuclear transparency is well correlated with proton absorption and neutron total cross sections and that calcula...

Evaluating the diagnostic significance of nuclear grooves in thyroid fine needle aspirates with a semiquantitative approach.

OBJECTIVE To clarify the diagnostic significance of nuclear grooves in thyroid fine needle aspirates, to search for other associated nuclear features and to identify possible diagnostic pitfalls. STUDY DESIGN In total, 67 fine needle aspiration cases were retrospectively reviewed for selected nuclear features, including grooves, intranuclear cytoplasmic invaginations, enlargement, pleomorphis...

Expression of nuclear lamins in mammalian somatic cells lacking cytoplasmic intermediate filament proteins.

Using immunofluorescence and immunoblotting techniques, we have examined the composition of the nuclear lamina in murine plasmacytoma cells, MPC-11, exposed to the phorbol ester TPA as well as in two cell lines devoid of cytoplasmic intermediate filament proteins, the human adrenal cortex carcinoma-derived cells SW-13 and the clone C6-M-D4 derived from the rat glial cell line C6. Our results sh...
