We perform an analysis of the quark angular momentum in a light-cone representation by taking into account the effect due to the Melosh-Wigner rotation and find that there is a relativistic correction factor connecting the quark orbital angular momentum with the quark model spin distribution: Lq(x) = < ML(x) >∆qQM(x). The quark orbital angular momentum Lq(x) and the quark helicity distribution ...

PURPOSE To test the appropriateness of the linear-quadratic (LQ) model to describe survival of jejunal crypt clonogens after split doses with variable (small 1-6 Gy, large 8-13 Gy) first dose, as a model of its appropriateness for both small and large fraction sizes. METHODS C3Hf/KamLaw mice were exposed to whole body irradiation using 300 kVp X-rays at a dose rate of 1.84 Gy/min, and the num...

This study set one´s sight on the relationship between lower quarter y balance test (YBT-LQ) score with hip isometric strength recreationally resistance-trained women. Utilizing dynamic as a screening tool for extremity injury risk has been proposed potential solution in prevention and assessment. A convenience sample of twenty young college females (22.3 ± 2.1 years) background regular or plyo...

Model Introduction With the advancement of image-guided radiation therapy (RT), SRS, SBRT and HDR brachytherapy, there is increasing interest in the use of large dose fractions to irradiate human cancer. The dose prescription has been guided by clinical experience accumulated from conventional RT (2Gy fractions) and low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy using the classic LQ model. However, concerns...

New criteria of Lp − Lq boundedness of Hardy-Steklov type operator (1.1) with both increasing on (0, ∞) boundary functions a(x) and b(x) are obtained for 1 < p ≤ q < ∞ and 0 < q < p < ∞, p > 1. This result is applied for two-weighted Lp − Lq characterization of the corresponding geometric Steklov operator (1.3) and other related problems.

We study the lattice finite representability of the Bochner space Lp(μ1, Lq(μ2)) in `p{`q}, 1 ≤ p, q < ∞, and then we characterize the ideal of the operators which factor through a lattice homomorphism between L∞(μ) and Lp(μ1, Lq(μ2)).

Strategies for preventing undernutrition comprise a range of interventions, including education, provision of complementary food and cash transfer. Here, we compared monthly distributions of two different lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS), large-quantity LNS (LNS-LQ) and medium-quantity LNS (LNS-MQ) for 15 months on prevention of undernutrition among children 6 to 23 months. Both groups al...

Rank minimization problems, which consist of finding a matrix of minimum rank subject to linear constraints, have been proposed in many areas of engineering and science. A specific problem is the matrix completion problem in which a low rank data matrix is recovered from incomplete samples of its entries by solving a rank penalized least squares problem. The rank penalty is in fact the l0 norm ...

We reconsider the optimal taxation of income from labor and capital in the stochastic growth model analyzed by Chari et al. (1994, 1995), but using a linear-quadratic (LQ) approximation to derive a log-linear approximation to the optimal policy rules. The example illustrates how inaccurate “naive” LQ approximation — in which the quadratic objective is obtained from a simple Taylor expansion of ...

We present a linguistically-motivated technique for the recognition and grouping of simplex noun phrases (SNPs) called LinkIT. Our system has two key features: (1) we efficiently gather minimal NPs, i.e. SNPs, as precisely and linguistically defined and motivated in our paper ; (2) we apply a refined set of postprocessing rules to these SNPs to link them within a document. The identification of...
