The karyotypes of three rat species from Hainan Island, China, were examined. Niviventer fulvescens (Gray, 1847) had 2n=46 and FN=64, similar to the karyotypes reported for N. fulvescens from Southeast Asia, while Niviventer lotipes () had 2n=52 and FN=66, which is distinct from the known karyotypes of other Niviventer species. Niviventer lotipes was recently considered conspecific with N. tena...

We review automation requirements and technologies for semiconductor manufacturing. We first discuss equipment integration architectures and control to meet automation requirements for modern fabs. We explain tool architectures and operational issues for modern integrated tools such as cluster tools, which combine several processing modules with wafer-handling robots. We then review recent prog...

Scintigraphic, clinical and pathological findings were correlated in 52 patients studied by technetium-99m stannous pyrophosphate ("mTc-PYP) myocardial scintigraphy before death or surgical resection of myocardium. Fifty-nine clinical events were studied with scintigraphy in the 52 patients; 41 of the 59 were associated with one or more abnormal "mTc-PYP studies and 18 with normal 9OmTc-PYP sci...

Fertility Assimilation of Immigrants: Evidence from Count Data Models This study applies count data estimation techniques to investigate the fertility adjustment of immigrants in the destination country. Data on completed fertility are taken from the 1996 wave of the German Socioeconomic Panel (GSOEP). While the economic literature stresses the role of prices and incomes as determinants of fert...
