Egyházi épületek világi célra történő átalakítása manapság egyre aktuálisabb tervezési feladat. Ennek egy szokatlan jellegű, ötletekben gazdag változatával találkoztunk a budapesti Városliget közelében, Damjanich utca 50. alatti D50 konferencia-központ esetében. Németh Tamás építész nemcsak felismerte az eredeti épület szellemi és lelki üzenetét, hanem 21. századi környezetbe illesztette új kon...

Mutations in the GJB2 gene, which encodes Cx26, are the most common cause of sensorineural deafness. In syndromic cases, such as keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome, in which deafness is accompanied by corneal inflammation and hyperkeratotic skin, aberrant hemichannel function has emerged as the leading contributing factor. We found that D50N, the most frequent mutation associated with...

We measured the number concentrations of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and the size distributions of CCN/CN (CN: condensation nuclei) ratios at supersaturations (SSs) of 0.097, 0.27, 0.58, and 0.97% at Jeju Island, Korea during March-April 2005. We made simultaneous measurements of aerosol inorganic ions, water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC), organic carbon (OC), and elemental carbon (EC) in P...

Using new large-scale wave-flume experiments we examine the cross-section and planform geometry of wave-formed ripples in coarse sand (median grain sizeD50 = 430 μm) under high-energy shoaling and plunging random waves. We find that the ripples remain orbital for the full range of encountered conditions, even for wave forcing when in finer sand the ripple length λr is known to become independen...
