Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is still a technically difficult procedure. The mechanical stabilizers used for local suppression of the heart excursion have been demonstrated to exhibit significant residual motion, which could lead to a lack of accuracy in performing the surgical task, particularly when using a minimally invasive surgery (MIS) approach. We therefore propose a n...

the effects of essential oils (eos) of oregano and nutmeg with and without commercial emulsifier/stabilizer compound (e/s) on the microbial quality of ready-to-cook barbecued chicken were evaluated. barbecued chicken was traditionally prepared. 3 μl/g and 10 mg/g of eos and/or e/s were then added to the barbecued chicken, respectively. the samples were stored at 3°c for 144 h, 8 and 20ºc for 72...

In [3], Oka and the second author considered the cohomology of the second Morava stabilizer algebra to study nontriviality of the products of beta elements of the stable homotopy groups of spheres. In this paper, we use the cohomology of the third Morava stabilizer algebra to find nontrivial products of Greek letters of the stable homotopy groups of spheres: α1γt, β2γt, 〈α1, α1, β p/p〉γtβ1 and ...

Corollary 1.2 Let G be an almost simple classical group with natural module V of dimension n. If G is linear, assume that G does not contain a graph automorphism. Let 2 ≤ k < n − 1, and let K be the stabilizer of a nondegenerate or totally singular k-space of V . Let P be the stabilizer of a singular 1-space of V . Then the permutation module 1P is a submodule of 1 G K unless one of the followi...

The $n$-qubit stabilizer states are those left invariant by a ${2}^{n}$-element subset of the Pauli group. Clifford group is unitaries which take to states; physically motivated generating set, Hadamard, phase, and controlled-not (cnot) gates comprise gates, impose graph structure on set stabilizers. We explicitly construct these structures, ``reachability graphs,'' at $n\ensuremath{\le}5$. Whe...

Cyanuric acid, used as chlorine stabilizer in swimming pool waters, has a relatively minor effect on the algicidal efficiency of free chlorine. The toxicity of free chlorine to three swimming pool algae was reduced slightly by 25 mg of cyanuric acid per liter if inhibiting, but less than algicidal, concentrations of chlorine were employed. Higher stabilizer concentrations (50, 100, and 200 mg/l...
