The IceCube Neutrino Telescope [1] is a multipurpose discovery experiment under construction at the South Pole. It is currently about half completed and is taking physics data. Upon completion in 2011, IceCube will instrument a volume of one cubic kilometer with 4800 Digital Optical Modules (DOMs). These will be vertically spaced with 17 m separation at a depth between 1450 m and 2450 m in the ...

We prove an analog of Krein’s resolvent formula expressing the resolvents of self-adjoint extensions in terms of boundary conditions. Applications to quantum graphs and systems with point interactions are discussed. AMS classification scheme numbers: 46N50, 47A06, 47A10 PACS numbers: 02.30.Tb, 02.60.Lj Krein’s resolvent formula [1] is a powerful tool in the spectral analysis of self-adjoint ext...

inflammation and pain induced by delayed onset muscle soreness (doms) can be induced by eccentric exercise or an unaccustomed activity. the condition can causes problems in exercising and for athletes. the purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 150mg curcumin supplementation immediately after intensive eccentric exercise. evaluations were made for total antioxidant capacity (tac), mu...

BACKGROUND We examined the effects of a proprietary herbal/botanical supplement (StemSport, Stemtech, San Clemente, CA.) suggested to increase circulating stem cells, decrease inflammation, and attenuate exercise induced muscle damage on recovery from delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). METHODS Sixteen subjects (male = 7, female = 9; age 23.8 ± 10 years; height 171.9 ± 10 cm, mass 72.2 ± 15...

AIM Our study aimed to investigate changes of different markers for routine assessment of fatigue and recovery in response to high-intensity interval training (HIIT). METHODS 22 well-trained male and female team sport athletes (age, 23.0 ± 2.7 years; V̇O2 max, 57.6 ± 8.6 mL · min · kg(-1)) participated in a six-day running-based HIIT-microcycle with a total of eleven HIIT sessions. Repeated sp...

This placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study assessed whether exclusive activation of peripheral opioid receptors results in significant pain reduction. To achieve opioid activity restricted to the periphery, we used a short-term (2 h) low dose infusion of morphine-6-beta-glucuronide (M6G) because M6G does not pass the blood-brain barrier during this time in amounts sufficient to induc...

Introduction: Athletics training and competition is associated with increased oxidative stress inflammation, especially at moderate altitude. This results from an formation of reactive oxygen species due to metabolic activity working cells tissues as well decreased pressure. The can cause inflammation delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), which be a serious problem for athletes competing high c...
