چکیده مقاله:
The paper discusses the results of 30 years of radon indoor entry research. While some progress has been made, many discrepancies between current theories and experimental data still remain. Misconceptions of radon transport mechanisms in homes are analyzed. The role of US Environmental Protection Agency in radon indoor entry research is examined and the agency's policies are criticized. The need to include thermotranspiration gas transport in the general model of radon indoor entry is substantiated. Iran. J. Radiat. Res., 2008 6 (1): 1-6

متن کاملKNO scaling 30 years later
KNO scaling, i.e. the collapse of multiplicity distributions Pn onto a universal scaling curve manifests when Pn is expressed as the distribution of the standardized multiplicity (n− c)/λ with c and λ being location and scale parameters governed by leading particle effects and the growth of average multiplicity. At very high energies, strong violation of KNO scaling behavior is observed (pp̄) an...
متن کاملRhodopsin phosphorylation: 30 years later.
Phototransduction in vertebrate photoreceptor cells mediated by rhodopsin is one of the most comprehensively examined G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling pathways. The signal transduction pathway can be mapped from the initial absorption of light to conformational changes within rhodopsin, through activation of the G protein transducin, and to the ultimate closure of the cation cGMP-gat...
متن کاملThe Staggers Act , 30 Years Later

متن کاملOffspring of Depressed Parents: 30 Years Later.
OBJECTIVE While the increased risk of psychopathology in the biological offspring of depressed parents has been widely replicated, the long-term outcome through their full age of risk is less known. The authors present a 30-year follow-up of biological offspring (mean age=47 years) of depressed (high-risk) and nondepressed (low-risk) parents. METHOD One hundred forty-seven offspring of modera...

A 30 años de la Carta de Ottawa1 para la promoción de la salud, aprobada en noviembre de 1986, es válido preguntarse cómo ha logrado influenciar las políticas de salud pública o específicamente, como señala la Carta, «avanzar hacia una nueva salud pública»2. Cada efeméride de la Carta de Ottawa se escriben editoriales o suplementos de revistas sobre su alcance. Por ello cabe preguntarse qué nue...
