In the phenomenological description of the nuclear interaction a crucial role is traditionally played by the exchange of a scalar I=0 meson, the sigma, of mass 500-600 MeV, which however is not seen clearly in the particle spectrum and which has a very ambiguous status in QCD. I show that a remarkably simple and reasonably controlled combination of ingredients can reproduce the features of this...

a little noted but notable thing in international law is the fact that states ever comply with its stipulations and strictures voluntarily, this denoting to the legitimacy of the international system and the existence of the international legal community. international obligations erga omnes, including those deriving from the principles and rules concerning the basic rights of the human person ...

Three patients are described in whom pleural effusion appeared to be a manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis. In each, needle biopsy demonstrated granuIomatous pleural lesions resembling the subcutaneous rheumatoid nodule while extensive studies failed to reveal any evidence of infection or neoplasm. The presence of extremely low fluid sugar concentration is regarded as strongly suggestive of r...

It is shown that a zero curvature representation for D– dimensional p–brane equations of motion originates naturally in the geometric (Lund– Regge– Omnes) approach. To study the possibility to use this zero curvature representation for investigation of nonlinear equations of p– branes, the simplest case of D– dimensional string (p = 1) is considered. The connection is found between the SO(1, 1)...
