hemimelia as a congenital anomaly is a failure of development of extremities formation in embryonic period. this anomaly is defined as complete absence of the part of extremities and different forms were explained for hemimelia. adactyly is an alternative name for transverse hemimelia and is a rare disorder in the most of animal species. a two months old male lamb with normal vital signs was re...

One of the most significant events in the evolution of the ozone layer over southern mid-latitudes since the late 1970s was the large decrease observed in 1985. This event remains unexplained and a detailed investigation of the mechanisms responsible for the event has not previously been undertaken. In this study, the 1985 Southern Hemisphere mid-latitude total column ozone anomaly is analyzed ...

Trace anomaly for dilaton coupled conformal theories on curved background with non-zero dilaton is found from supergravity side as an IR e ect using AdS/CFT correspondence. For d = 2 it coincides with the conformal anomaly for dilaton coupled scalar (up to total derivative term which is known to be ambiguous). In four-dimensional case we get conformal anomaly for N = 4 super YM theory interacti...

Spin filter superconducting S/I/N tunnel junctions (NbN/GdN/TiN) show a robust and pronounced Zero Bias Conductance Peak (ZBCP) at low temperatures, the magnitude of which is several times the normal state conductance of the junction. Such a conductance anomaly is representative of unconventional superconductivity and is interpreted as a direct signature of an odd frequency superconducting order.

Particles with millicharge q and sub-eV mass can be produced in photon-photon collisions, distorting the energy spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background. We derive the conservative bound q < ∼ 10 −7 e (as well as model-dependent bounds two orders of magnitude stronger), incompatible with proposed interpretations of the PVLAS anomaly based on millicharged production or on millicharged-mediate...

introduction: orofacial clefts are among the most common congenital anomalies. patients presenting with orofacial clefts often require surgery or other complex procedures. a cleft lip or palate can be a single anomaly or a part of multiple congenital anomalies. the reported prevalence of cleft disease and associated anomalies varies widely across the literature, and is dependent on the diagnost...

Among current methods used to estimate calcification rates, the alkalinity anomaly technique has been widely used for short-term incu bations as it is nondestructive and is based on a parameter that is easily and accurately measured. However, total alkalinity is also influenced by other processes such as nutrient consumption and release, and may also require corrections. The calcium anomaly tec...

The Doppler-tracking data of the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft show an unmodelled constant acceleration in the direction of the inner Solar System. Serious efforts have been undertaken to find a conventional explanation for this effect, all without success at the time of writing. Hence the effect, commonly dubbed the Pioneer anomaly, is attracting considerable attention. Unfortunately, no other ...
