The Monoceros R2 region was first recognized as a chain of reflection nebulae illuminated by Aand B-type stars. These nebulae are associated with a giant molecular cloud that is one of the closest massive star forming regions to the Sun. This chapter reviews the properties of the Mon R2 region, including the namesake reflection nebulae, the large scale molecular cloud, global star formation act...

INTRODUCTION Our goal was to assess the effects of titration of a norepinephrine infusion to increasing levels of mean arterial pressure (MAP) on sublingual microcirculation. METHODS Twenty septic shock patients were prospectively studied in two teaching intensive care units. The patients were mechanically ventilated and required norepinephrine to maintain a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 65...

Abstract. Snow density plays a critical role in estimating water resources and predicting natural disasters such as floods, avalanches, snowstorms. However, gridded products for snow are lacking understanding its spatiotemporal patterns. In this study, considering the strong heterogeneity of density, well weak nonlinear relationship between meteorological, topographic, vegetation, variables, ge...

The conventional Friedmann cosmology is known to be in tension with the existence of stable particles having interaction strength typical for supersymmetry and heavier than several TeV. A possible way save life such may a modification standard cosmological expansion law that density these heavy relics would significantly reduced. We study particle creation Starobinsky inflationary model differe...

The assessment of regional heart wall motion (local strain) can localize ischemic myocardial disease, evaluate myocardial viability, and identify impaired cardiac function due to hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathies. The objectives of this research were to develop and validate a technique known as hyperelastic warping for the measurement of local strains in the left ventricle from clinical ...

We present the results of ground-based imaging spectroscopy of the [Ne II] 12.8 μm line emitted from the ultracompact (UC) H II regions; W51d, G45.12+0.13, G35.20−1.74 and Monoceros R2, with 2 spatial resolution. We found that the overall distribution of the [Ne II] emission is generally in good agreement with the radio (5 or 15 GHz) VLA distribution for each source. The Ne abundance ([Ne/H]) d...

We construct some particular kind of solution to the two dimensional equivariant wave map problem in space-time domain of type Ωα(t) = {x ∈ R2 : |x|α < t}, where α ∈ (0, 1], with a source term. More precisely, taking the initial data (u0, u1) in time T to belongs to the Sobolev space H1+ε × Hε with some ε > 0, the source term is in L1((0, T ); Hε (Ωα(t))), we show that the H1+ε norm of the solu...
