In view of a possible evolution of the CERN accelerator complex towards higher proton intensities, a 2.2 GeV H linac with 4 MW beam power has been designed, for use in connection with an accumulator and compressor ring as proton driver of a muon-based Neutrino Factory. The high-energy part of this linac can use most of the RF equipment (superconducting cavities and klystrons) from the LEP colli...

This paper aims to provide a description of the need for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) for Limited English Proficient (LEP) patients, an identification of how the lack of CLAS for LEP patients can compromise patient safety and healthcare quality, and discuss barriers to the provision of CLAS.

BACKGROUND The dust mite Lepidoglyphus destructor is a major cause of allergic diseases among farmers. We have previously cloned and sequenced two isoforms of the major allergen Lep d 2 (formerly designated Lep d 1) and found significant homology to group 2 allergens of the house dust mite species Dermatophagoides. We now report on the production and characterization of recombinant Lep d 2. O...

35 The cortical potentials evoked by cutaneous application of a laser stimulus (laser evoked 36 potentials, LEP) often include potentials in the primary somatic sensory cortex (S1), which may 37 be located within the subdivisions of S1 including Brodmann areas 3A, 3B, 1 and 2. The precise 38 location of the LEP generator may clarify the pattern of nociceptive activation of human S1 by 39 painfu...

BACKGROUND Dust mites are important inducers of allergic disease. Group 2 allergens are recognized as major allergens in several mite species, including Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Lepidoglyphus destructor, and Tyrophagus putrescentiae. No allergens have thus far been characterized on the molecular level from the dust mite Glycyphagus domesticus. OBJECTIVE We sought to examine the cross-r...

The cortical potentials evoked by cutaneous application of a laser stimulus (laser evoked potentials, LEP) often include potentials in the primary somatic sensory cortex (S1), which may be located within the subdivisions of S1 including Brodmann areas 3A, 3B, 1, and 2. The precise location of the LEP generator may clarify the pattern of activation of human S1 by painful stimuli. We now test the...

Negative and positive laser evoked potential (LEP) peaks (N2*, P2**) were simultaneously recorded from the primary somatosensory (SI), parasylvian, and medial frontal (MF: anterior cingulate and supplementary motor area) cortical surfaces through subdural electrodes implanted for the surgical treatment of intractable epilepsy. Distribution of the LEP N2* and P2** peaks was estimated to be in co...

The dramatic growth and dispersal of immigrant families has changed the face of public education at a time when states are experiencing increased school accountability pressures under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and its recent successor the Every Student Succeeds Act. Of particular concern is how these demographic shifts affect the academic well-being of Limited English Proficient (LEP) you...

The combined LEP/SLD data on the bb̄ forward-backward asymmetry from the Z-pole measurements may imply the presence of new physics in the Zbb̄ couplings. In general, the effect of new physics can be parameterized by SUC(3)× SUL(2)×UY (1) invariant higher dimensional operators. By fitting the recently announced LEP/SLD data on Ab and Rb, the size of the coupling strengths of these operators can be...
