Recent epidemiological studies have indicated high risk factors for persons exposed to vibrations. We measured the in vivo responses of lumbar vertebrae and sacrum five volunteers who were subjected pure sinusoidal vertical vibrations seated position. Two acceleration amplitudes used, one three meters per second squared, with frequencies ranging from two fifteen hertz. Spinal vibration was using a transducer that attached directly spinous processes. Axial, horizontal, rotatory accelerations...

Isotopic shift data for Hei induced high resolution valence electron spectra of H2 16O, 18O, and D2 16O are presented. From the differences in vibrational subspectra we were able to deduce adiabatic ionization energies geometries ions assign excited vibrations normal modes. The ν2 progression 2A1 band was found be affected by strong vibronic coupling.

We suggest a new way of determining abundances and electron temperatures in H ii regions from strong emission lines. Our approach is based on the standard assumption that with similar intensities lines have physical properties abundances. A 'counterpart' for studied region may be chosen among well-measured (reference regions) by comparison carefully combinations strong-line intensities. Then investigated can assumed to same as those its counterpart. In other words, we determine 'by...

Recent works have demonstrated a surprisingly small variation of the dust-to-metals ratio in different environments and correlation between dust extinction density stars. Naively, one would interpret these findings as strong evidence cosmic being produced mainly by But other observational suggest there is significant with metallicity. As we demonstrate this paper, simple star-dust scenario problematic also sense that it requires destruction interstellar medium (e.g., due to passage supernova...

We use simple analytical models of the build up dust component and compare these with radial distributions derived from observations SINGS galaxies. The show that gradients are indeed typically steeper than corresponding metallicity our indicate very little destruction, but significant growth in ISM for most Hence, we conclude there is evidence non-stellar production, destruction due to SNe shock waves. find reprocessed rather destroyed by shocks SNe.

Context. The origin of the so called "detached shells" around AGB stars is not fully understood, but two common hypotheses state that these shells form either through interaction distinct wind phases or an eruptive mass loss associated with a He-shell flash. We present model formation detached thermal pulse asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) stars, based on detailed modelling and stellar evolution, leading to combination interaction.

We argue that the energy injection of pulsations may be greater importance to mass-loss rate AGB stars than metallicity, and trend with metallicity is not as simple sometimes assumed. Using our detailed radiation hydrodynamical models include dust formation, we illustrate effects pulsation on wind properties. find scales kinetic input by long a dust-saturated does occur, all other stellar parameters are kept constant.

Multi-zone chemical evolution models (CEMs), differing in the nucleosynthesis prescriptions (yields) and of star formation, have been computed for Milky Way. All fit observed O/H Fe/H gradients well reproduce main characteristics gas distribution, but they are also designed to do so. For C/H gradient results inconclusive with regards yields formation.
