The aim of this work is the formalization of Chapter 0 Section 4 of [11]. In this paper the definition of meet-continuous lattices is introduced. Theorem 4.2 and Remark 4.3 are proved. Let X, Y be non empty sets, let f be a function from X into Y , and let Z be a non empty subset of X. One can verify that f • Z is non empty. Let us note that every non empty relational structure which is reflexi...

The Wills functional from the theory of lattice point enumeration can be adapted to produce the following exponential inequality for zero mean Gaussian processes: Ee sup t (X t ?(1=2) 2 t) e E sup t X t : An application is a new proof of the deviation inequality for the supremum of a Gaussian process above its mean: P (sup t X t ? E sup t X t a) e ?(1=2)a 2 == 2 ; where a > 0 and 2 = sup t 2 t .

During prolonged, static carotid baroreceptor stimulation by neck suction (NS) in seated humans, heart rate (HR) decreases acutely and thereafter gradually increases. This increase has been explained by carotid baroreceptor adaptation and/or buffering by aortic reflexes. During a posture change from seated to supine (Sup) with similar carotid stimulation, however, the decrease in HR is sustaine...

Effective supernatants (SUP), which potentiate mouse T-cell responses to phytohemagglutin (PHA), are obtained from cells of several species (human, rabbit, rat, mouse) and indeed from syngeneic spleen, thymus, or bone marrow cells. Unstimulated cells release some SUP activity but more is produced after stimulation. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) produced very active SUP in all cultures tested. PHA wa...

A multichannel imaging system is presented, consisting of 25 microfabricated optically-pumped magnetometers. The sensor probes have a footprint of less than 1 cm2 and a sensitive volume of 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm and connect to a control unit through optical fibers of length 5 m. Operating at very low ambient magnetic fields, the sensor array has an average magnetic sensitivity of 2...

This paper describes the establishment and characterization of a new cell line (SUP-B7) which was established from a child with "common" acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The SUP-B7 cells (and the patient's tumor) have been characterized by cytochemical staining, monoclonal antibodies, enzyme analyses, gene rearrangement studies, and karyotype analysis. The SUP-B7 cells are periodic acid-Schiff pos...

We simulate a proof-of-principle design of a wavelength dispersive, parallel spectrometer for use in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). The instrument relies on a multiple-channel reflection zone plate (RZP) array, enabling the recording of fluorescence spectra from an acceptance angle of 18  arc min×19  arc min with a mainly source-size-limited resolving power of (0.2-2.6)×104</s...

We report on an approach to generate non-diffractive and non-dispersive Airy3 bullets with enhanced spatio-temporal energy confinement. By appropriately reshaping the initial spectral components in the Fourier domain, the resulting optical bullets show a significant enhancement of their central lobe intensity while exhibiting a reduced spatio-temporal outspread of the surrounding sub...

We present a novel design of a micro-structured large-pitch, large-mode-area (LMA) asymmetric rod-type fiber. By reducing the cladding symmetry through six high-refractive index germanium-doped silica inclusions, the fiber features strong higher-order mode (HOM) delocalization, leading to a potentially enhanced preferential gain for the fundamental mode in active fibers. In addition, high resol...
