We discuss the production of new particles that are predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model, at future high–energy pp, eP and e + e − linear colliders. We focus on the case of exotic, excited and di–fermions.

Introduction Conclusions References

I summarize the prospects for discovering Higgs bosons at future pp and e + e − colliders both in the Standard Model and its Minimal Supersymmetric extension.

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis is a skin reaction characterized by an acute onset, fever, and a cutaneous eruption with non-follicular sterile pustules on edematous erythema. It mimics many of the features of pustular psoriasis but is differentiated by its characteristic clinical course and history. The cause is usually ingested drugs. We report a case of acute generalized exanthema...

As more rheumatologists and dermatologists have begun to use biological agents such as TNF-alpha blocker, they have confronted an unexpected complication: psoriasis was paradoxically aggravated or induced by the TNF-alpha blocker. Although it is not a common complication of TNF-alpha blocker, this aggravation may be more common than previously thought. To our knowledge, most reports about TNF-a...

Psoriasis is a common disease in children and adolescents. Because of the chronic course of the disease, appropriate choice of therapy in particular stage of the disease, so-called rotation therapy, is of paramount importance. This article provides a review of therapeutic options for childhood psoriasis. Local therapy for psoriasis in children consists of corticosteroid preparations, calcipotri...

Background Recent data show that almost 75% of HIV patients have muco-cutaneous diseases, the proportion of patients with dermatoses being inversely proportional to the CD4 + and directly proportional to the stage of disease. Papulo-pustular eruption is the most common pruritic dermatosis in patients with HIV infection, followed by seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, molluscum contagiosum and dru...

Ecosystem light use efficiency (LUE) is a key factor of production models for gross primary production (GPP) predictions. Previous studies revealed that ecosystem LUE could be significantly enhanced by an increase on diffuse radiation. Under large spatial heterogeneity and increasing annual diffuse radiation in China, eddy covariance flux data at 6 sites across different ecosystems from 2003 to...
