This paper describes the use of a high field solenoidal magnet to capture secondary pions from the production target. The captured pions subsequentially decay to produce the neutrino beam. A pion capture system using a high field solenoid magnet has been proposed for the muon collider[1]. This technology would also be available for neutrino beam production. It will be shown that a high field so...

production of highly viscous tar sand bitumen using steam assisted gravity drainage (sagd) with a pair of horizontal wells has advantages over conventional steam flooding. this paper explores the use of artificial neural networks (anns) as an alternative to the traditional sagd simulation approach. feed forward, multi-layered neural network meta-models are trained through the back-error-propaga...

background: toxoplasma gondii is an apicomplexan parasite which infects a broad range of hosts. the classical diagnosis of toxoplasmosis relies on serological methods. detection of parasite or its components could be useful tool for early diag­nosis of the infection. methods: fifty mice were infected by the intraperitoneal route with 5000 tachyzoites of t. gondii rh strain. five of them sacrifi...
