The size evolution of Pb nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized by ion implantation in an epitaxial Al film has been experimentally investigated. The average radius R of Pb NPs was determined as a function of implantation fluence f. The R(f) data were analyzed using various growth models. Our observations suggest that the size evolution of Pb NPs is controlled by the diffusion-limited growth kinetics ...

INTRODUCTION Experimental studies were carried out to evaluate phase relations involving titanite–F–Al-titanite solid solution in the system CaSiO3– Geological background Al2SiO5–TiO2–CaF2. The experiments were conducted at Titanite is a common accessory mineral in mafic, pelitic 900–1000°C and 1·1–4·0 GPa. The average F/Al ratio in and granitic rocks from many geological environments titanite ...

The mechanisms by which antivenom neutralizes the venom are still poorly understood. In the present work, we studied the effects of antivenom, constituted with either F(ab9)2 or Fab, on the processes of absorption and elimination of Vipera aspis venom in experimentally envenomed rabbits. We first concluded from this study that during the few hours after intramuscular injection, the venom rapidl...

Nella miniatura al f. 177r del manoscritto Yates Thompson 36 della British Library, Giovanni di Paolo, mette in scena con dovizia particolari l’invettiva accorata, pronunciata da san Pietro nel canto XXVII Paradiso ai versi 19-66. L’artista fornisce un’interpretazione figurale particolarmente attinente testo, dove anche quei che a prima vista potrebbero risultare estranei o difficilmente compre...

background : although, family history of cancer is an important risk factor for upper gastrointestinal cancers development, but limited information is available on the upper gastrointestinal cancers associated with family history in iran. the purpose of this study was to define upper gastrointestinal cancers risk associated with family history of cancer. methods : this study was conducted as a ...

In this paper we develop an implementation of a recently proposed inference algorithm known as particle Gibbs with ancestral resampling (PGAS) [Lindsten et al., 2012] for higher-order probabilistic programming languages. Higher-order probabilistic languages such as Church [Goodman et al., 2008], Venture [Mansinghka et al., 2014] and Anglican [Wood et al., 2014] allow statistical models to be re...

BACKGROUND (18)F-florbetapir is a promising imaging biomarker for cardiac light chain amyloidosis (AL) and transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR). Our aim, using human autopsy myocardial specimens, was to test the hypothesis that (18)F-florbetapir binds specifically to myocardial AL and ATTR amyloid deposits. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied myocardial sections from 30 subjects with autopsy-documente...

The operator Jm p (λ, )f (z) was studied by Srivastava et al. [3] and Aouf et al. [4]. From (1.2) and (1.3), we observe that J−m p (λ, )f (z) = Im p (λ, )f (z)(m > 0), so the operator Jm p (λ, )f (z) is well-defined for l ≥ 0, l ≥ 0, p Î N and m Î Z = {..., -2, -1,0,1,2,...}.
