Dwarf galaxies are small systems with relatively simple histories. This makes them interesting objects to study a “simple” chemical evolution history. Boötes I belongs to the faintest subclass of dwarf galaxies: ultra-faint dwarf spheroidals, which have very low surface brightness and are dark

The title compound, {(C(2)H(10)N(2))(1.5)[Y(C(4)O(4))(3)(H(2)O)(4)]}(n) {system-atic name: catena-poly[sesqui(ethyl-enediammonium) [[tetra-aquabis-(squarato-κO)yttrium(III)]-μ-squarato-κ(2)O:O']]}, was synthesized by slow evaporation of an acid solution. The asymetric unit contains one yttrium cation in an anti-prismatic environnement, three squarate groups, one and a half protonated ethyl-ened...

Emissive plumes from laser-irradiated fiberglass-reinforced polymers (FRP) were investigated using a mid-infrared imaging Fourier transform spectrometer, operating at fast framing rates (50 kHz imagery and 2.5 Hz hyperspectral imagery) with adequate spatial (0.81 mm(2) per pixel) and spectral resolution (2 cm(-1)). Fiberglass-reinforced polymer targets were irradiated with a 1064 nm continuous ...

Abstract A stable and highly sensitive gas ionization sensor (GIS) constructed from vertically aligned, conductive yttrium-doped ZnO nanorod (YZO NR) arrays is demonstrated. The conductive YZO NRs are synthesized using a facile one-pot hydrothermal method. At higher Y/Zn molar ratio, the aspect ratio of the YZO NRs is increased from 11 to 25. Doping with yttrium atoms decreases the electrical r...

Two regimens to immobilise the knee after injection were compared in patients receiving intra-articular yttrium-90 for persistent synovitis of the knee, the patients being randomly allocated to receive either complete bed rest or full mobilisation with the affected knee in a firm splint. There was no difference in the percentage of the radioisotope retained in the knee or in that taken up by ot...

Trigonal ordering is evident from electron microscopy of quenched powders of composition YBa#Zu, 0, 5. The powders are a mixture of phases, some of which are based upon two trigonal phases with (I = 0.54 and c = 0.66 nm. In the first the yttrium and barium atoms order on the (I 11) planes of the parent perovskite structure rather than the (001) while in the second stacking sequence the yttrium ...

introduction: periodontal diseases are considered as some of the most common reasons of teeth loss, which occur due to the aggregation of microbial plaque and other precipitations on the dental surfaces . in this study, the scaling effect using manual tools, ultrasonic machine and erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag)laser on the connection of the human gums connective tissue cells on t...

Ceramic dental materials have been considered as alternatives to metals for dental implants application. In this respect, zirconia tetragonal stabilized with %3 yttrium, is of great importance among the ceramic materials for endosseous dental implant application. Because of its good mechanical properties and color similar to tooth. The aim and novelty of this study was to design and prepare Y-T...
