We show that, with a few familiar exceptions, every essential lamination in an interval-bundleover a closed surface can be isotoped to lie everywhere transverse to the Ibers of the bundle.

We give a brief survey of some recent work on 3-manifolds, notably towards proving Thurston’s ending lamination conjecture. We describe some applications to the theory of surfaces and mapping class groups.

Tissues were obtained by open biopsy of a series of human intracranial neoplasms, fixed in Veronal-buffered osmium tetroxide, and embedded in Vestopal-W. In two instances in which specimens were obtained from oligodendrogliomas in regions where the tumor had infiltrated but not entirely destroyed cortical tissues, glial processes were found to be arranged in a highly organized laminar fashion. ...

We investigate the effect of light soaking and forward electric bias treatment on silicon heterojunction solar cells modules and, in particular, influence thermal occurring during lamination. A substantial performance increase is observed after or soaking, which shown to be potentially partly reset by lamination process. This reproduced annealing with same budget. second again improves performa...
