Proton-emission branches of the 10+ isomer in the Tz=−1 nucleus 54Ni have been imaged with the active target and time projection chamber (ACTAR TPC) in an experiment conducted at the Grand Accélérateur National d'Ions Lourds (GANIL). The completed decay scheme allows derivation of the reduced transition strengths, B(E2;10+→8+) and B(E4;10+→6+), for the two competing γ-ray transitions. By means of

High-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy was used to study the room-temperature adsorption of CO on a Pt(111) single-crystal surface in equilibrium with the gas phase. The coverage was found to vary continuously, and over the entire range from 10-6-760 Torr pressure-dependent moiré patterns were observed, characteristic of a hexagonal or nearly hexagonal CO overlayer. Two different pressure ran

Collagenase injection and needle fasciotomy have similar short-term outcomes in the treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture. The purpose of this study was to compare the recurrence rate of these two procedures 3 years after index treatment of primary disease. We enrolled 93 patients (96 rays) from a previous two-centre randomized controlled trial. The rays that had been retreated or showed an increas

Strengthening of load-bearing masonry walls might often be a solution to extend the life cycle and area of use of existing buildings. In the present work, strengthening of masonry walls by means of externally bonded steel-grid is studied. Full scale clay brick masonry walls were constructed and tested in laboratory under eccentric axial compressive loading.

Motivation hos anorektiker mäts ofta i samband med förändring, medan andra motivationsområden inte berörs. Genom att bryta ner begreppet i mindre byggstenar syftar denna uppsats till att belysa förhållandet mellan vardagsmotivation och Anorexia Nervosa. Med utgångspunkt i frågeställningen kring anorektikers motivation inför vardagsaktiviteter utformades ett självskattningsformulär bestående av 33 The motivation within the psychiatric disease Anorexia Nervosa is often measured with focus on the anorectic’s wish to recover. Even though this motivation is important for a recover from Anorexia Nervosa most studies evaluate this from the single perspective motivation to change. This article is focusing on the relation between motivation and Anorexia Nervosa. An internet survey including 33 ques

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur studenters kreativitet påverkas av användandet av Instant messenger och elektronisk media. Hypoteserna var att studenter som använder instant messenger kommer prestera sämre på kreativitetstest och att det finns en negativa relation mellan hög medieanvändning och prestation på kreativitetstest. Studien utfördes som ett experiment på totalt 50 studenterThe purpose of this study was to examine how students' creativity is affected by the use of Instant Messenger and electronic media. The hypotheses were that students who use Instant Messenger will underperform on creativity tests, and that there is a negative relationship between high media usage and performance on creativity tests. The study was conducted as an experiment on a total of 50 stu

Acute otitis media (AOM) is the most common bacterial infection in children and has a very varied clinical spectrum, ranging from spontaneous resolutions to serious complications. The effect of antibiotics in AOM depends on the chosen outcome, but has been shown to reduce pain somewhat, and have a greater beneficial effect in severe cases of AOM. Today, not all episodes of AOM are treated with ant
