We show that for steady, periodic, and rotational gravity deep-water waves, a monotone surface profile between troughs and crests implies symmetry. It is observed that if the vorticity function has a bounded derivative, then it vanishes as one approaches great depths.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kristna, speciellt de av icke-judisk ursprung, som under det första århundradet drog sig undan aktiv medverkan i de traditionella grekisk-romerska kulterna och som i grekisk-romersk kontext kom att identifieras som utövare av något annat än traditionell judendom hamnade snart i ett socio-politisk dilemma. Å ena sidan skapade de tidiga kristnas fria hållning till den judWhen first-century gentile Christians withdrew from the traditional and civic Graeco-Roman cults and increasingly began to be identified by the Romans as not belonging to mainstream or common Judaism, they soon found themselves pressed "between synagogue and state." On the one side, the fact that they did not observe the Torah elicited hostility from Jews who did not want to be identified with a m

The angular pattern of scattered X-ray radiation (1.2-2.5 Angstrom) from flames has been measured and analyzed. The results are compared with calculations on different molecules, such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons, fullerenes and other spherical structures. Measurements have also been performed on soot condensed on a cooling plate inserted inside a flame. Size- and shape-dependent structures are ob

Aims To compare the effect of initial monotherapy with either bisoprolot or enalapril, followed by their combination, on mortality and hospitalization in patients with mild-to-moderate CHF. Methods and results One thousand and ten patients with mild-to-moderate CHF and left ventricular ejection fraction

Det i Sverige dominerande perspektivet på etnokulturella frågor definierar invandrare och flyktingar i termer av ekonomiska problem och sociala motsättningar. Ansvaret för den systematiska begreppsförvirring och tilltagande kuturrasism som präglar det offentliga samtalet vilar tungt på ledande massmedier, politiker och s k invandrarforskare.

The low-lying core-excited quintet states of Mg I have been studied experimentally and theoretically. On the basis of beam-foil spectroscopy, the energies of nearly all the quintet levels belonging to the 2p(5)3s3p2 and 2p(5)3s3p4s configurations have been established, while only 5F levels from the 2p(5)3s3p3d configuration could be identified. Multiconfigurational Hartree-Fock calculations, inclu

CP and T asymmetries in neutrino oscillations, in vacuum as well as in matter, are expressed in terms of invariant functions of lepton mass matrices.

Objectives To determine the accuracy of established ultrasound dating formulae when used at 12-14 and 15-20 gestational weeks. Methods A total of 363 singleton pregnancies conceived after in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and randomized to a dating scan at 12-14 or 15-20 gestational weeks were studied. 'True' gestational age was calculated on the basis of the day of oocyte retrieval and was compared to

Syftet är att studera och analysera processer vars mål är att förändra vardagen för två marginaliserade grupper, så att de i större utsträckning blir delaktiga i samhället. De två undersökta grupperna är manliga unga narkomaner och äldre utvecklingsstörda. Avhandlingen består av tre geografiska perspektiv: 1) det tidsgeografiska synsättet, 2) känslan för platsen och 3) socialgeografiska teorier omThe aim is to study and analyse processes intended to change the daily lives of two marginalised groups and enable them to participate to a greater extent in the community. The two marginalised groups are young male drug addicts and older intellectually disabled. The thesis is permeated by three geographic perspectives: 1) the time-geographic approach, 2) sense of place and 3) social-geographic th

The intestinal mucosa represents the largest body surface toward the external environment and harbors numerous T lymphocytes that take up resident within the intestinal epithelium or in the underlying lamina propria (LP). The intraepithelial lymphocytes include subsets of 'unconventional' T cells with unclear ontogeny and reactivity that localize to this site independently of antigen-specific acti

For generations of electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis, the presence of premature ventricular beats (PVBs) has been characterized as a common event in the ECG without regard to the mechanism which has caused the PVB in the first place. At best, the coupling interval with the preceding sinus beat may be noted. This viewpoint persisted throughout the era of automated ECG analysis, as well as influencin

A pair of isogenic, nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae strains, one expressing protein D and the other protein D-negative, was compared in their ability to cause damage in a human nasopharyngeal tissue culture model. Damage was assessed by measuring the ciliary beat frequency (CBF) of tissue specimens at 12 h intervals. Cultures inoculated with H. influenzae manifested a decrease in CBF beginning

Bertrand supergames with non- binding communication are used to study price formation and stability of collusive agreements on experimental duopoly markets. The experimental design consists of three treatments with different costs of communication: zero- cost, low- cost and high- cost. Prices are found to be significantly higher when communication is costly. Moreover, costly communication decrease

We show that the Galactic thick disk reaches at least solar metallicities and that it experienced strong chemical enrichment during a period of ~3 Gyr, ending around 8-9 Gyr ago. This finding puts further constraints on the relation and interface between the thin and thick disks and their formation processes. Our results are based on a detailed elemental abundance analysis of 261 kinematically sel
