A μ-lattice is a lattice with the property that every unary polynomial has both a least and a greatest fix-point. In this paper we define the quasivariety of μ-lattices and, for a given partially ordered set P , we construct a μ-lattice JP whose elements are equivalence classes of games in a preordered class J (P ). We prove that the μ-lattice JP is free over the ordered set P and that the orde...

Call Justificatory Probabilism (hereafter, JP) the thesis that there is some (classical) probability function Pr such that for an agent S with evidence E , the degree to which they are justified in believing a hypothesis H is given by Pr(H |E). As stated, the thesis is fairly ambiguous, though none of the disambiguations are obviously true. Indeed, several of them are obviously false. If JP is ...

The Stanford Linear Collider requires special Beam Position Monitors near the Interaction Point (JP) to bring the two beams (e+ and e-) into collision. These beams pass through two monitors on each side of the JP with a short time separation (about 20 and SOns). The mechanics of the monitors as well as the electronics will be described. Jn order to bring beams of several microns diameter into c...

[1] On the lunar dayside, photoelectrons are quasi-constantly emitted from the Moon’s surface and this electron flux acts to typically charge the dayside lunar surface a few volts positive. In arriving at an equilibrium surface potential, the surface will charge to balance the two primary currents: the outgoing photoelectron flux, Jp, against the incoming solar wind electron thermal flux, Je. I...

A simple, non-invasive dermal sampling technique was developed and tested on 22 human volunteers under laboratory conditions to estimate acute dermal exposure to jet fuel (JP-8). Two sites on the ventral surface of each forearm were exposed to 25 micro l of JP-8 and the non-viable epidermis (stratum corneum) was sequentially tape-stripped using an adhesive tape. Samples were extracted with acet...

BACKGROUND Fundamental researches suggest that ileum presents greater adaptive potential than the jejunum. However, few studies estimate the association between ileum and adaptive potential in human. To discover the association, we conducted this matched case-control study. METHODS A 1:2 pair-matched, case-control study was conducted from January 1, 2001 to January 1, 2015 in Intestinal Rehab...

In order to investigate the initiation mechanisms and kinetics associated with the pyrolysis of JP-10 (exo-tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]decane), a single-component hydrocarbon jet fuel, we carried out molecular dynamics (MD) simulations employing the ReaxFF reactive force field. We found that the primary decomposition reactions involve either (1) dissociation of ethylene from JP-10, resulting in the f...

TO THE EDITOR: Glancy et al. (4) measure the rate of oxygen consumption (Jo) by mitochondria incubated with an ATPconsuming system in the presence of creatine kinase (CK), and they show that this in vitro model of aerobically exercising skeletal muscle conforms to Meyer’s electrical analog of muscle oxidative phosphorylation in vivo (23). I want to suggest that the interpretation of these exper...

Both laboratory and epidemiological studies published over the past two decades have identified the risk of excess hearing loss when specific chemical contaminants are present along with noise. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potency of JP-8 jet fuel to enhance noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) using inhalation exposure to fuel and simultaneous exposure to either continuous or i...
