Charcoals prepared from certain tropical woods contain stable paramagnetic centers, and these have been characterized by EPR spectroscopy in the absence and presence of oxygen. The EPR-detectable spin density has been determined, as has been the temperature- and frequency-dependence of the oxygen broadening of the EPR signal, which is orders of magnitude larger than that observed with other mat...

One of the five regions in Denmark has initiated a remarkable and alternative strategy for the development of Electronic Patient Record (EPR) systems. This strategy is driven by Participatory Design (PD) experiments and based on evidence of positive effects on the clinical practice when using EPR systems. We present this PD strategy and our related research on evidence-based IT development. We ...

The Frank polyphase sequence has been applied to pulsed EPR of triarylmethyl radicals at 25 6 MHz (9.1 mT magnetic field), using 256 phase pulses. In EPR, as in NMR, use of a Frank sequence of phase steps permits pulsed FID signal acquisition with very low power microwave/RF pulses (ca. 1.5 mW in the application reported here) relative to standard pulsed EPR. A 0.2 mM aqueous solution of a tria...

An unknown quantum state ji can be disassembled into, then later reconstructed from, purely classical information and purely nonclassical EPR correlations. To do so the sender, \Alice," and the receiver, \Bob," must prearrange the sharing of an EPR-correlated pair of particles. Alice makes a joint measurement on her EPR particle and the unknown quantum system, and sends Bob the classical result...

In this Letter, we derive an entropic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering inequality for continuous-variable systems using only experimentally measured discrete probability distributions and details of the measurement apparatus. We use this inequality to witness EPR steering between the positions and momenta of photon pairs generated in spontaneous parametric down-conversion. We examine the ...

Automating clinical and administrative processes via an electronic patient record (EPR) gives clinicians the point-of-care tools they need to deliver better patient care. However, to improve clinical practice as a whole and then evaluate it, healthcare must go beyond basic automation and convert EPR data into aggregated, multidimensional information. Unfortunately, few EPR systems have the esta...

Purpose: Capsular related complications may occur during and/or following cataract s”rPew. Methods: We used endocapsular PUMA rings (EPR) to prevent such complications in eyes with pre or peroperative zonular c’ehiscence, high myopic eyes and eyes witl: exfoliation syndrome which have weak zonoles. EPR can be implanted easily through the phaco-incision before aspiration of the cortex or just be...

It is sometimes profitable to measure the longitudinal nuclear spin polarization of He. The method described here takes advantage of the vaporized alkali metal already present in a glass target cell. Long range and short range interactions with polarized He gas result in an “effective” magnetic field felt by the alkali metal atoms. A precisely detectable Zeeman shift in the alkali EPR frequency...

Paramagnetic properties of model humic substances (HS) synthesized from 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid (gallic acid) were studied by means of EPR spectroscopy. A singlet EPR signal without any fine structure was observed for powder sample with spin density 6×10 spin/g, witdh 6.45 Gs and g=2.002. Results of the microwave power saturation pointed to a high dipolar relaxation enhancement. In aqueous...

The enhanced principal rank characteristic sequence (epr-sequence) of an n× n symmetric matrix over a field F was recently defined as `1`2 · · · `n, where `k is either A, S, or N based on whether all, some (but not all), or none of the order-k principal minors of the matrix are nonzero. Here, a complete characterization of the epr-sequences that are attainable by symmetric matrices over the fie...
