We construct a QCD-based model where soft gluon rescattering between final state partons in deep inelastic scattering leads to events with large rapidity gaps and a leading proton. The model successfully describes the precise HERA data on the diffractive deep inelastic structure function in the whole available kinematical range.

The basic structure of classical density functional theory (DFT) is reviewed from a rather general perspective. The treatment is then specialized to ionic solutions, describing the various possible extensions beyond the Poisson–Boltzmann level, that DFT offers, such as excluded volume effects, non-electrostatic interactions, connectivity (polymers) and ion correlations. The last effects are discus

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a tropical fruit which is considered to be a source of dietary fiber (DF) and phenolic compounds (PCs). In this study, high DF mango-based fruit bars were developed from whole mango (peel and pulp). The bars were evaluated for their nutritional composition, the bioaccesibility of PCs during gastrointestinal digestion, and the PCs metabolites profile after in vitro co

INTRODUCTION Human resource management (HRM) has an important role to play in corporate environmental management in supporting the success of environmental policies and programmes. Indeed, the sorts of changes advocated in this book are unlikely to succeed without the full support of human resource managers. Equally environmental initiatives and culture change programmes will not succeed without t

Modeling is fundamental to both feed-forward and feedback control. Within automated anesthesia the two paradigms are usually referred to as target-controlled infusion (TCI) and closed-loop drug delivery, respectively. In both cases, the objective is to control a system with anesthetic drug infusion rate as input, and (measured) clinical effect as output. The input is related to the output through

Climate change brings new burdens to people working outdoors. Migrantpopulations working at brick kilns in India are one such group facing dangerouslyoverheated working conditions. Many migrate to the kilns from rural areas underbonded labor conditions. We argue that solutions need to go beyond industry oriented technology-based solutions and focus on the social problem and take apeople focused st

Importance: Multiple myeloma is consistently preceded by monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). Risk models that estimate the risk of progression from MGUS to multiple myeloma use data from a single time point, usually the initial workup. Objective: To longitudinally investigate the alterations of serum immune markers with stable vs progressive MGUS. Design, Setting, and Partic

Grating-based X-ray dark-field contrast is an emerging new imaging modality that is demonstrating particularly high potential for radiography. The signal in dark-field X-ray imaging is determined by small-angle X-ray scattering at structures typically below the spatial resolution of the imaging setup. Thus, this technique not only yields complementary information but also visualizes information th

The formation of the nuclear envelope and the subsequent compartmentalization of the genome is a defining feature of eukaryotes. Traditionally, the nuclear envelope was purely viewed as a physical barrier to preserve genetic material in eukaryotic cells. However, in the last few decades, it has been revealed to be a critical cellular component in controlling gene expression and has been implicated

Electroactive microorganisms possess the unique ability to transfer electrons to or from solid phase electron conductors, e.g., electrodes or minerals, through various physiological mechanisms. The processes are commonly known as extracellular electron transfer and broadly harnessed in microbial electrochemical systems, such as microbial biosensors, microbial electrosynthesis, or microbial fuel ce

Goals concerning reduced car traffic are found in most European cities, indicating a potential change in local transport policy and land use planning, which have traditionally been very car-centric. This paper analyses goals and measures to reduce car traffic in Swedish municipalities’ long-term transport and land use plans. Theoretically, the paper is based on an understanding of policies as part
