abstract background and aim: considering the widespread development of implants in dental treatment plans, linear measurements on panoramic radiography are of especial importance. in the present study we investigated the effect of head misalignment up to 15° around vertical and horizontal axes on the magnification rate of digital panoramic radiography in each part of upper and lower jaws. mater...

It is experimentally demonstrated that an arbitrary quantum state of a single spin 1/2, a| upward arrow+b| downward arrow, can be converted into a superposition of the two ferromagnetic states of a spin cluster: a| upward arrow upward arrow... upward arrow upward arrow+b| downward arrow downward arrow... downward arrow downward arrow. The physical system is a cluster of seven dipolar-coupled nu...

We investigate continuation-passing style transforms that pass two continuations. Altering a single variable in the translation of λ-abstraction gives rise to different control operators: first-class continuations; dynamic control; and (depending on a further choice of a variable) either the return statement of C; or Landin’s Joperator. In each case there is an associated simple typing. For tho...

We study the implications for the expressive power of call/cc of upward continuations , speciically the idiom of using a continuation twice. Although such control eeects were known to Landin and Reynolds when they invented J and escape, the forebears of call/cc, they still act as a conceptual pitfall for some attempts to reason about continuations. We use this idiom to refute some recent conjec...

We report discovery of collinear-magnetism-driven ferroelectricity in the Ising chain magnet Ca3Co2-xMn(x)O6 (x approximately 0.96). Neutron diffraction shows that Co2+ and Mn4+ ions alternating along the chains exhibit an up-up-down-down ( upward arrow upward arrow downward arrow downward arrow) magnetic order. The ferroelectricity results from the inversion symmetry breaking in the upward arr...

we study the theory of best approximation in tensor product and the direct sum of some lattice normed spacesx_{i}. we introduce quasi tensor product space anddiscuss about the relation between tensor product space and thisnew space which we denote it by x boxtimesy. we investigate best approximation in direct sum of lattice normed spaces by elements which are not necessarily downwardor upward a...
