We present the first application of a recently developed effective theory of jet propagation in matter, soft-collinear effective theory with Glauber gluons (SCET_{G}), to inclusive hadron suppression in nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC and the LHC. SCET_{G}-based splitting kernels allow us to go beyond the traditional energy loss approximation and unify the treatment of vacuum and medium-indu...

The accumulation of metal in soft tissues, filtration rate and gill filament morphology are correlated in the southern African rock mussel, Perna perna, during exposure to mercury (24 days) and recovery (24 days). The amount of Hg in soft tissues increased from 0.13 to 87.5 microg/g dry weight after 24 days exposure, and declined to 13 microg/g during recovery. Mean filtration rate fell from 3,...

A total of 300 Mytella strigata were collected at three sampling points in the mussel coastal demonstration farm Sasmuan, Pampanga, and subjected to morphometric gravimetric measurements for evaluation its growth pattern condition index. Designated sites based on distances river mouth (200 m, 400 600 m) with varying water quality parameters (temperature, salinity, pH, velocity, chlorophyll-a). ...

simple snoring is a social problem, one that can gravely affect the patient's married life. about 40% of men and 20% of women are affected, and it often goes along with sleep-disordered breathing. up to now various surgical techniques have been defined such as uppp(uvulopalatopharyngo plasty), and laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty (laup). among the surgical methods, raup (radiofrequency assisted...

introduction: the phenomenon of neglected foreign bodies is a significant cause of morbidity in soft tissue injuries and may present to dermatologists as delayed wound healing, localized cellulitis and inflammation, abscess formation, or foreign body sensation. localization and removal of neglected soft tissue foreign bodies (stfbs) is complex due to possible inflammation, indurations, granulat...
