Radiation is becoming widely available to treat tumors in veterinary patients. Orthovoltage machines capable of delivering low energy external beam radiation are less versatile than linear accelerators and cobalt-60 machines that deliver megavoltage radiation. In addition, electron beam capabilities that are available with some linear accelerators allow more targeted treatment in our smaller pa...

The common failure to include an estimation of sample size in grant proposals imposes a major handicap on applicants, particularly for those proposing work in any aspect of research in the health services. Members of research committees need evidence that a study is of adequate size for there to be a reasonable chance of a clear answer at the end. A simple illustrated explanation of the concept...

Basic elements of the perturbative QCD approach to multiparticle production in hard processes are discussed. Instead of Introduction I had a hard time writing these lectures. You will have a hard time reading them. Don't take it as the author's fault: it is rather part of the author's design. I met in Dubna young experimenters, eager to learn. Some of them would ask not just \How probable is it...

From the simplest point of view, transseries concern manipulations on formal series, or a new kind of expansion for real-valued functions. But transseries constitute much more than that—they have a very rich (algebraic, combinatorial, analytic) structure. The set of transseries— also known as the transline—is a large ordered field, extending the real number field, and endowed with additional op...

Research examining problem representations of individuals during task performance is advancing our understanding of information processing and expertise in a variety of sports. However, few studies using similar methodology have been conducted on individuals of various competitive standards in one domain in similar contexts. This study examined problem representations of adult advanced beginner...

this study was an attempt to investigate the effect of vowel-recognition training on beginner and advanced iranian esl learners. a total of 36 adult iranian esl learners (18 advanced and 18 beginners) who were students of various majors at memorial university (mun) were recruited for the study. advanced participants had the experience of living in canada for at least three years while beginners...

This pilot study set out to determine whether a parallel corpus and a concordancer would be appropriate tools to supplement a teaching programme of German at the beginners' level in an unsupervised environment. In this instance, a beginner student of German was asked to find satisfactory answers to unknown vocabulary and formulate appropriate grammar rules for himself using the parallel corpus ...
