The effects of uterine length per embryo and stage of gestation on prenatal survival, development, and sex ratio were determined by systematically restricting embryos to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or > 50 cm of initial uterine length per potential embryo and examining the reproductive tracts at d 17, 23, 29, 35, or 41 of gestation. At d 3 the mean length of a uterine horn was 169 +/- 35...

Fragmentation process in a cylindrical magnetized cloud is studied with the nested grid method. The nested grid scheme use 15 levels of grids with diierent spatial resolution overlaid subsequently, which enables us to trace the evolution from the molecular cloud density 100cm ?3 to that of the protostellar disk 10 10 cm ?3 or more. Fluctuation with small amplitude grows by the gravitational ins...

To reevaluate the ability of the disk diffusion method to detect methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, 73 such isolates from 13 cities were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility with the standardized disk diffusion test. Duplicate plates were incubated at 30 and 35 degrees C and read after 18, 24, and 48 h. After incubation at 35 degrees C for 24 h, 97% of isolates appeared resistant t...

introduction: it has been shown that joint click, an initial and common finding in internal derangement (id), respond to neither conservative treatment nor surgical intervention. this raises the question as to whether it must be treated in the absence of other pertinent signs and symptoms, so the aim of this study was to investigate and compare the mri findings of tmj in both normal subjects an...

Keck adaptive optics imaging with a physical resolution of 0.4 AU resolves the inner (15–80 AU) disk of AU Mic (GJ 803), the nearest known scattered light disk to Earth. The inner disk is asymmetric and possesses a sharp change in structure at 35 AU. The disk also shows spatially localized enhancements and deficits at 25–40 AU separations. The overall morphology points to the influence of unsee...

Keck adaptive optics imaging with a physical resolution of 0.4 astronomical units (AU) resolves the inner (15 to 80 AU) disk of AU Microscopii (AU Mic, GJ 803, HD 197481), the nearest known scattered light disk to Earth. The inner disk is asymmetric and possesses a sharp change in structure at 35 AU. The disk also shows spatially localized enhancements and deficits at 25- to 40-AU separations. ...

We present deep Spitzer IRS low-resolution ( ) 5–35 mm spectroscopy of the edge-on disk the l/Dl ∼ 100 “Flying Saucer” (2MASS J1628137

We present a study of the relationship between the surface brightness of the radio continuum emission and the FIR emission within M 31, based on radio maps at four wavelengths (73 cm, 20 cm, 11 cm and 6 cm) and the HIRES-FIR maps at 60 μm and 100 μm. For a common resolution of 5′ we decomposed the radio emission into a thermal and a nonthermal radio continuum map at λ20 cm, and the FIR emission...

Using Spitzer Space Telescope photometric observations of the eclipsing, interacting binary WZ Sge, we have discovered that the accretion disk is far more complex than previously believed. Our 4.5 and 8 micron time series observations reveal that the well known gaseous accretion disk is surrounded by an asymmetric disk of dusty material with a radius approximately 15 times larger than the gaseo...
