Abstract. Recent U–Pb dating by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) has demonstrated that reasonable precision (3 %–10 %, 2σ) can be achieved for high-resolution of texturally distinct calcite phases. Absolute dolomite, which biostratigraphy and traditional techniques are very limited, remains challenging, although it may resolve many fundamental questions re...

The lunar meteorites have valuable informations for understanding the evolution of the Moon’s crust, because each meteorite may potentially provide a new insight into the thermal history of unexplored regions of the Moon. In spite of their scientific interests, chronological studies of Very-Low-Ti (VLT) basaltic meteorites have not be well understood, since the most VLT basalt meteorites are br...

Consequences resulting from the DD excess derived indirectly by the NA50 experiment in S+U and Pb+Pb collisions at √ s=19, 17 GeV, relevant for the identification of the QCD phase transition in these collisions, are discussed. The dependence of open and closed charm yields in Pb+Pb collisions on the number of participating nucleons (N) indicates non thermal charm production and J/Ψ dissociation...

OBJECTIVE To describe the profile of patients who participated in the Randomised Clinical Trial for Uniform Multidrug Therapy for Leprosy Patients in Brazil (U-MDT/CT-BR) and determine the level of satisfaction with a uniform therapy regimen, especially among paucibacillary patients. DESIGN This is a descriptive cross-sectional epidemiologic study nested in the wider U-MDT/CT-BR. The study wa...
