A collaborative effort between industry and government shows progress towards the goal of identifying productive natural fractures in gas reservoirs using seismic methods. Improved geological understanding of mature gas reservoirs in offshore Gulf of Mexico points towards unrecovered resource. A simple new technique to improve primary cement jobs has resulted in a 36 percent decrease in average...

In this paper, the Radiation Transfer Equation(RTE) for a non-gray gas between two large parallel planes has been solved and the temperature distribution obtained. With the RTE, solution heat fluxes are also determined. Since and are two components of most combustion products, the problem has been solved for these two gases. The results were, whenever possible, compared with data reported el...

We model collisionless collective conversion of a degenerate Fermi gas of atoms into bosonic molecules via a Feshbach resonance, treating the bosonic molecules as a classical field and seeding the pairing amplitudes with random phases. A dynamical instability of the Fermi sea against association with molecules drives the conversion. The model qualitatively reproduces several experimental observ...

BACKGROUND The role of non-group A streptococci (non-GAS) as pathogens of acute pharyngitis is controversial. Data are limited and conflicting on whether these bacteria are true pathogens of pharyngitis and whether treatment is indicated in all cases or just select cases. However, non-GAS are well-documented as being pathogens of other diseases, including neonatal sepsis, pneumonia, endocarditi...

OBJECTIVE To review aspects of hyperbaric medicine pertinent to treating critically ill patients with hyperbaric oxygen in both monoplace and multiplace chambers. DATA SOURCES Literature review of online databases, research repositories, and clinical trial registries. RESULTS The search of these resources produced information regarding technical considerations, feasibility, risk, and patien...
