The possibility to simulate lepton number violating supersymmetric models has been introduced into the recently updated Pythia event generator, now containing 1278 decay channels of SUSY particles into SM particles via lepton number violating interactions. This generator has been used in combination with the AtlFast detector simulation to study the impact of lepton number violation (4) on event to
We prove that any classical solution of the Camassa-Holm equation will have compact support if its initial data has this property.
The Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov (KYP) lemma has been a cornerstone in system theory and network analysis and synthesis. It relates an analytic property of a square transfer matrix in the frequency domain to a set of algebraic equations involving parameters of a minimal realization in time domain. This note proves that the KYP lemma is also valid for realizations which are stabilizable and observable
We present a simple model for the arterial part of the cardiovascular system, based on Poiseuille flow constrained by the power dissipated into the cells lining the vessels. This, together with the assumption of a volume-filling network, leads to correct predictions for the evolution of vessel radii, vessel lengths and blood pressure in the human arterial system. The model can also be used to find
A 2-step 'semi-nested' enterovirus PCR was developed and applied to CSF and serum specimens from 27 consecutive patients with aseptic meningitis. CSF and sera from 8 patients with non-enteroviral diagnoses were included as negative clinical controls. Enterovirus RNA was detected in CSF by PCR in 15 of the patients with aseptic meningitis, compared with 6 by virus culture. Acute-phase sera proved p
This book is the first in almost 40 years to provide a comprehensive scientific overview of research in the field of parapsychology, explaining what we know and don’t know about so-called psi phenomena, such as “telepathy,” “precognition” or “psychokinesis.” Contributors evaluate the evidence for these phenomena, accounting for factors such as selective memory, wish fulfillment and incorrect metho
A simple model for the gluon structure function at small x is presented, which gives an intuitive picture of the transition between the DGLAP and BFKL regimes
Commentary on Articles 116-119 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.
The purpose is to provide a brief overview of activities related to biofuels for transport in the Asia-Pacific Region, which covers a diverse range of countries and economies. The focus is on the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC),which is the premier forum for facilitating economic growth, cooperation, trade, and investment in the Asia-Pacific Region. APEC provides a forum for cooperation o
STUDY SYNOPSIS Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common, severe and disabling knee injuries occurring in young active athletes. Treatment could be either surgical or non-surgical,both involving extensive rehabilitation for at least 4-6 months. Two RCTs comparing surgical and non-surgical treatment of ACL injured knees was performed in the 80’s and both failed to present any difference
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med föreliggande undersökningar var att söka nå en mer fullständig kunskap om barn och ungas eldsanläggelse; att undersöka hur frekvent förekommande det är, samt om det, i experimentella studier, kan relateras till frustration eller leda och till personlighetsdrag som optimism, pessimism och kreativitet. Avhandlingen består av fyra studier, två intervjuundersökniThe purpose of the present investigations was to obtain a more comprehensive view of fire setting by children and adolescents; to explore the prevalence of the phenomenon; whether or not it experimentally may be related to frustration or boredom and to examine the role of personality traits such as optimism, pessimism and creativity. This dissertation consists of two experimental and two interview
The BEAST-APP decoding algorithm is a low-complexity bidirectional algorithm that searches code trees to find the list of the most likely codewords, which are used to compute approximate a posteriori probabilities (APPs) of the transmitted symbols. It can be applied to APP-decoding of any linear block code, as well as in iterative structures for decoding concatenated block codes. Previous work has
