Abstract Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influenced the presence of tides, which depend on star equation state. Neutron mergers are expected to often produce rapidly rotating remnant that emit gravitational waves. These will provide clues extremely hot post-merger environment. This signature in contains most 2–4 kHz frequency band, outside sensitive...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects single and chronic dosing with salmeterol on exercise capacity lung function in patients obstructive pulmonary disease. METHODS: Twenty nine mean (SE) age 64 (1.5) years, forced expiratory volume one second (FEV1) 42(3)% predicted, 5-15% reversibility salbutamol 200 micrograms were randomised receive four weeks treatment 50 twice daily or placebo a double blind crossover fashion week washout period between. Measurements...
Exercise maintained for approximately eight minutes results in a fall F.E.V.1 rise airway resistance, and impaired gas distribution asthmatic subjects. These effects are usually maximal within 15 after cessation of exercise recovery takes place over the next 30 minutes. Measurement resistance before normal subjects suggests that same mechanism is operating them. Hyperventilation stimulated by inhalation carbon dioxide has failed to produce similar effect. Chlorpromazine, atropine, mepyramine...
The water-based paints now frequently used for house painting still contain small amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with the potential to exacerbate symptoms asthma. Because these problems and environmental concerns, some manufacturers have produced no VOC content. We wished compare effects on asthmatics conventional paint new VOC-free paint. Seventeen were recruited basis having previously reported exacerbation by or other odours. Each undertook a standard task identically...
We describe an unusual case of carpal coalition in otherwise asymptomatic 28-year-old man. The combination scaphoid, trapezium, trapezoid and capitate fusion detailed this article has not, to the best our knowledge, been previously recorded.
The change in transfer coefficient (Kco) with increasing heart rate during exercise was studied 25 normal subjects and 21 patients pulmonary sarcoidosis. slope of the Kco response against found to be 0·0053 mmol min<sup>−1</sup> kPa<sup>−1</sup> l<sup>−1</sup> per beat group but many two standard deviations or more below this slope, even when their routine function tests were normal. This is a sensitive index changed than
Lower-limb musculoskeletal injury (MSKI) is associated with a considerable economic and operational cost to the UK Ministry of Defence. To ensure force readiness British Armed Forces, strategies that increase potential for adaptations in muscle strength following MSKI are crucial
Baffles in optical systems on a satellite, such as imaging payloads and star trackers, involve structures with large empty volumes that take up significant payload volume. Limiting the volume of is essential, considering demand for small satellite platforms rideshare launch missions. A baffle structure can be configured to stow packed configuration during deploy its operational once orbit. An analytical model deployable conical baffles developed trade off various design parameters. simple...
Research has demonstrated positive impacts of behavioral interventions on various educational outcomes for autistic youth, and implementation these in education settings been widely advocated. However, recent studies have identified methodological shortcomings the intervention evidence base, including lack reporting side effects social validity. This review 98 as evidence-based practices by National Clearinghouse Autism Evidence Practice further highlights evaluation validity research....
A novel integrated optic approach to the design and manufacture of an optical subsystems for a Range-Doppler imaging lidar is described demonstrated. The uses hollow waveguides guide light between system components which are into common substrate. design, operation eleven element subsystem compact, rugged provides coherent mixing efficiencies in excess 80% theoretical maximum, discussed. results trials at Army Missile Optical Range, involving measurement images representative targets described.
The operation and sensitivity of the Advanced LIGO gravitational wave detector are degraded by absorption-induced wavefront distortion. We describe use ultra-sensitive Hartmann sensors to tune optimize sensitivity.
1 The purpose of the study was to assess bronchorelaxant effects β3-adrenoceptor agonist BRL 35135 in normal human airways. 2 Eight healthy male subjects were studied, having previously demonstrated airways responsiveness inhaled salbutamol 200 μg, with a group mean (± s.e. mean) fall resistance (Raw), from baseline, 37 ± 5%. 3 Subjects attended laboratory on separate days, fasted and taken placebo (PL) or nadolol 20 mg (N20), h previously. 4 After 30 min rest, baseline measurements Raw,...
Gravitational-wave observatories around the world are searching for continuous waves: persistent signals from sources such as spinning neutron stars. These searches use sophisticated statistical techniques to look weak in noisy data. In this paper, we demonstrate these using a table-top model gravitational-wave detector: Michelson interferometer where sound is used an analog gravitational waves. Using signal processing continuous-wave searches, recovery of tones with constant and wandering...
