Systematic physical activity increases physical fitness and exercise capacity that lead to the improvement of health status and athletic performance. Considerable effort is devoted to identifying new biomarkers capable of evaluating exercise performance capacity and pro...

AbstractA map is a cell decomposition of a closed surface; it is regular if its automorphism group acts transitively on the flags, mutually incident vertex-edge-face triples. The main purpose of this paper is to establish, by elementary methods, the following result: fo...

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of the mixed-valent, ketimide-stabilized Pd7 nanosheet, [Pd7(N═CtBu2)6] (1), via reaction of PdCl2(PhCN)2 and Li(N═CtBu2). tBuCN, isobutylene, and isobutane are also formed in the reaction. The presence of these produ...

Agar nutrient media containing 0.2% soluble hydroxyethylcellulose covalently dyed with Ostazin Brilliant Red H-3B or soluble beechwood 4-O-methyl-d-glucurono-d-xylan dyed with Remazol Brilliant Blue R were used for sensitive detection of microorganisms producing and sec...

Abstract In the present work, pepsin digests of tail tendons from streptozotocin-diabetic rats were found to contain material that reacted rapidly at room temperature with p -dimethylaminobenzaldehyde (Ehrlich’s reagent) to give an adduct with an absorbance spectrum cha...

Let $S_{(N)} \equiv PG(1,\,2) \times PG(1,\,2) \times \cdots \times PG(1,\,2)$ be a Segre variety that is $N$-fold direct product of projective lines of size three. Given two geometric hyperplanes $H'$ and $H''$ of $S_{(N)}$, let us call the triple $\{H', H'', \overline...

The energy dependence of hadron production in central Pb+Pb collisions is presented and discussed. In particular, midrapidity $m_T$-spectra for $\pi^-$, $K^-$, $K^+$, $p$, $\bar{p}$, $d$, $\phi$, $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ at 40, 80 and 158 $A$GeV are shown. In addit...

This paper is a continuation of a previous one (Jancovici and Samaj, 2004 J. Stat. Mech. P08006) dealing with classical Casimir phenomena in semi-infinite wall geometries. In that paper, using microscopic Coulomb systems, the long-ranged Casimir force due to thermal flu...
