John Bell’s emphasis of the essential ambiguities in anomaly calculations is recalled. Some descendants of the anomaly are reviewed. 1 John Bell and the Chiral Anomaly I expect that most everyone in this audience knows that John Bell codiscovered the mechanism of anomalous symmetry breaking in quantum field theory. Indeed, our paper on this subject [1] is his (and my) most-cited work. The symme...

Cleft hand is an anomaly in which the primary feature is oligodactyly, and it is considered an important congenital malformation. The authors have analyzed the cases they have handled and developed an independent classification based on the number of defective digits. It has been ascertained that the clinical symptoms correlate with the number of defective digits, and a regular pattern was obse...

Drought is widely recognized as a phenomenon associated with scarcity of water. Proper evaluation and management rainfall crucial need to reduce the severity drought. Present work aims study spatial temporal fluctuation in eastern part Satara district Maharashtra using Rainfall Anomaly Index (RAI). Monthly annual data sixteen metrological stations were used for period between 1979 2013. RAI was...

although imperforate hymen is a rare condition, it is the most common obstructive anomaly of the female genital tract. the early diagnosis of this condition requires a high index of suspicion in newborns and in females without a history of menarche. hydronephrosis is a known but rare complication of an imperforate hymen. hereby we preset 2 cases of premenstrual adolescent with urinary retention...

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) has been supplying a continuous data stream since 2000, lending to detailed time series analysis of the global terrestrial environment. This paper explores a quality anomaly present in the tropics relating to the aerosol quantity flag in the daily MODIS surface reflectance products (MOD09 series) and the 16-day Vegetation Index (VI) comp...

We study the implications of the index theorem and chiral Jacobian in lattice gauge theory , which have been formulated by Hasenfratz, Laliena and Niedermayer and by Lüscher, on the continuum formulation of the chiral Jacobian and anomaly. We take a continuum limit of the lattice Jacobian factor without referring to perturbative expansion and recover the result of continuum theory by using only...

BACKGROUND There is a strong maternal parent-of-origin effect in determining susceptibility to multiple sclerosis (MS). One hypothesis is that an abnormal intrauterine milieu leading to impaired fetal development could plausibly also result in increased susceptibility to MS. A possible marker for this intrauterine insult is the presence of a non-fatal congenital anomaly. METHODS We investigat...

other persons who are mentioned because at some time something has been named after them. Historians may hope that future editions will not prune too much on the ground of obsolescence. Manifestly there is no outright "best buy": Firkin & Whitworth contain material not to be found elsewhere, and similarly much that they do not cover is available elsewhere. All depends on what you seek. They can...
