We use the theory of YFS resummation to compute the size of the expected resummed soft radiative threshold effects in precision studies of heavy particle production at the LHC, where accuracies of 1% are desired in some processes. We find that the soft QED threshold effects are at the level of 0.3% whereas the soft QCD threshold effects enter at the level of 20% and hence both must be controlle...

Holstein bull calves (n = 48) were purchased from local sale barns at 3 to 7 d of age and were assigned randomly to a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of lasalocid in milk replacer (0 or 80 mg/kg) and in calf starter (3 or 44 mg/kg of dry matter). On d 10 after arrival, calves were orally dosed with 100,000 Eimeria oocysts. Intakes of calf starter and milk replacer, body weight (BW), BW gain, excret...

Effects of starter cultures, Lactobacillus sake and Pediococcus acidilactici, on the survival of Yersinia enterocolitica were studied in Turkish dry sausage (sucuk). Inoculated Y. enterocolitica (approximately 5.0 log CFU/ g) was eliminated completely in sausages by L. sake (about 7.0 log CFU/g) and P. acidilactici (about 7.0 log CFU/g) by the 3rd d of fermentation but was not totally eliminate...

BACKGROUND The provision of starter packs for human immunodeficiency virus postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) is practiced in many settings to facilitate rapid initiation by nonexperts and encourage adherence. However, the impact of starter packs on PEP completion rates has not been systematically assessed. We systematically reviewed the evidence on outcomes associated with starter packs for PEP co...

Study of soft sets was first proposed by Molodtsov in 1999 to deal with uncertainty in a non-parametric manner. The researchers did not pay attention to soft set theory at that time but now the soft set theory has been developed in many areas of mathematics. Algebraic structures using soft set theory are very rapidly developed. In this book we developed soft neutrosophic algebraic structures by...

Entrepreneurs who start new firms may choose not-for-profit status as a means of committing to soft incentives. Such incentives protect donors, volunteers, consumers and employees from ex post expropriation of profits by the entrepreneur. We derive conditions under which completely self-interested entrepreneurs opt for not-for-profit status, despite the fact that this status limits their abilit...

Molodtsov initiated the concept of soft sets in [4]. Maji et al. defined some operations on soft sets in [10]. Aktaş et al. generalized soft sets by defining the concept of soft groups in [7]. After then, Qiu-Mei Sun et al. gave soft modules in [12]. In this paper, methods of homology algebra are applied to the category of soft modules. For this reason, chain complexes of soft modules and their...
