The monopole creation operator proposed recently by Frohlich and Marchetti is investigated in the Abelian Higgs model with compact gauge field. We show numerically that the creation operator detects the condensation of monopoles in the presence of the dynamical matter field.

INTRODUCTION The euryhaline killifish Fundulus heteroclitus lives in estuaries and salt marshes on the eastern coast of North America. Killifish must dynamically regulate their ion balance because of routine fluctuations in salinity in their natural environment. This species can tolerate changes in salinity from freshwater to nearly four times seawater (Griffith, 1974), and have therefore been ...

The vein of Marshall (VOM) is widely known as a pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). To eliminate the triggers of AF, the Marshall potential can be ablated both from the endocardium with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and from the epicardium with ethanol injection. This is a case report of successful catheter ablation from the endocardium to visualize the electrically isolated area of the VOM.

BACKGROUND The purpose of Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) is to code various types of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) based on their anatomical location and severity. The Marshall CT Classification is used to identify those subgroups of brain injured patients at higher risk of deterioration or mortality. The purpose of this study is to determine whether and how AIS coding can be translated to the...

This paper considers the simple step-stress model from the Marshall-Olkin generalized exponential distribution when there is time constraint on the duration of the experiment. The maximum likelihood equations for estimating the parameters assuming a cumulative exposure model with lifetimes as the distributed Marshall Olkin generalized exponential are derived. The likelihood equations do not lea...

In recent decades, porous asphalt has been extended for surface drainage in various regions throughout the world. The permeability of porous asphalt has an important role in the performance of asphalt pavements in the rainy weather. The most remarkable problem related to the porous asphalt is its short service time. Considerable efforts have been made to enhance the mechanical properties of por...
