Cold Acclimatization in Eskimo

0 N EXPOSURE to cold the body has a complicated physiological problem to solve. There is a limit to the heat it can produce to provide for an increased heat loss and during exposure of much severity a heat deficit is incurred. While peripheral tissues are cooling, the central body temperature must be kept within a very narrow range if the function of vital organs is to be maintained. If the acc...

eskimo: EXPERIMENTING WITH SKELETONS

We discuss the lack of expressivity in some skeleton-based parallel programming frameworks. The problem is further exacerbated when approaching irregular problems and dealing with dynamic data structures. Shared memory programming has been argued to have substantial ease of programming advantages for this class of problems. We present the eskimo library which represents an attempt to merge the ...

The Lost Tribes of Charmonium

To illustrate the campaign to extend our knowledge of the charmonium spectrum, I focus on a puzzling new state, X(3872) → ππJ/ψ. Studying the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium properties leads us to propose a new charmonium spectroscopy: additional discrete charmonium levels that can be discovered as narrow resonances of charmed and anticharmed mesons. I call attention to open issu...
