Dijet production with a rapidity gap between the jets is considered as a test ground for the production of a heavy Higgs boson via weak-boson fusion at hadron supercolliders. It is argued that in order to perform a detailed analysis of dijet production with a rapidity gap we need an O(αs) calculation including the relevant collinear enhancements which give structure to the jets. Such a calculat...

Collider experiments have recently measured the production cross section of hard jets separated by a rapidity gap as a function of transverse momentum and gap size. We show that these measurements reveal the relative frequencies for the production of rapidity gaps in quark-quark, quark-gluon and gluon-gluon interactions. The results are at variance with the idea that the exchange of 2 gluons is...

diabetic ketoacidosis (dka) is characterized by excessive production of organic acids leading to a low blood ph. rarely, because of other complicating factors blood ph may be in the alkalemic range and the term diabetic ketoalkalosis has been coined to describe this condition. so far, less than 30 such cases have been reported in the literature. we report a 34-year-old woman who received methyl...
