To quantify the energetic cost of maintaining lateral balance during human running, we provided external lateral stabilization (LS) while running with and without arm swing and measured changes in energetic cost and step width variability (indicator of lateral balance). We hypothesized that external LS would reduce energetic cost and step width variability of running (3.0 m/s), both with and wi...

Learning health systems necessitate interdependence between health and academic sectors and are critical to address the present and future needs of our health systems. This concept is being supported through the new Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Health System Impact (HSI) Fellowship, through which postdoctoral fellows are situated within a health system-related organization to h...

The change in absorbance (hole spectrum) of the primary electron donor (P870) in bacterial photosynthetic reaction centers has been studied at 1.5-2.1 K following narrow-band excitation at several wavelengths within the P870 absorption band. The hole width is very large, suggesting a homogeneous linewidth on the order of 200-300 cm-‘. Possible interpretations of this highly unusual result, incl...

The photoswitching of the energy gap width of the isomeric forms of photoresponsive polymers with homonuclear photochromic diarylethene elementary units is investigated theoretically, taking into account the correlation correction. It is shown that a real switching of electrical conductivity (insulator , semiconductor or conductor) can not be realized with polymers with alternant homonuclear -e...

In this work, we tried to predict the parameters of [Formula: see text] meson. Simple assumptions gave us following text][Formula: text]MeV and (for text]GeV in covariant confined quark model). We calculated widths radiative decays mesons, where compared them with other theoretical works. It was shown that width meson is very sensitive mass as expected less size parameter text].

in this paper, the temperature distribution around a moving heat source had been investigated including the phase change and non phase change . in non-phase change state, the governing equation was converted to finite difference equation by finite volume method and the equation was solved by alternating direction implicit method. this method was unconditionally stable . in phase change state, t...

introduction: scatter radiation is one of the major sources of error in nuclear medicine data processing. different methods of scatter correction have been introduced in order to improve the quality of data. however the best method is to avoid recording of scatter photons in acquisition. the only difference between scattered and non-scattered photons is the energy. pulse height analyzer is the ...

We calculate the change in the effective mass and width of a Z boson in the environment of a quark-gluon plasma under the conditions expected in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. The change in width is predicted to be only about 1 MeV at a temperature of 1 GeV, compared to the natural width of 2490±7 MeV. The mass shift is even smaller. Hence no observable effects are to be expected. PACS numbers: 1...
