(excerpt) The evaluations of residues on foodstuffs contained in these monographs were prepared by a joint meeting of an FA0 expert committee and a WHO expert committee on pesticide residues that met in Geneva and produced its report Pesticide Residues in Food published as WHO Technical Report Series No. 545 and FA0 Agricultural Studies No. 92 in 1974.

Multifractality and Conformal Invariance at 2D Metal-Insulator Transition in the Spin-Orbit Symmetry Class

We study the multifractality (MF) of critical wave functions at boundaries and corners at the metal-insulator transition (MIT) for noninteracting electrons in the two-dimensional (2D) spin-orbit (symplectic) universality class. We find that the MF exponents near a boundary are different from those in the bulk. The exponents at a corner are found to be directly related to those at a straight boundary through a relation arising from conformal invariance. This provides direct numerical evidence for conformal invariance at the 2D spin-orbit MIT. The presence of boundaries modifies the MF of the whole sample even in the thermodynamic limit.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

Strange particle production in a single-freeze-out model

The transverse-momentum spectra and elliptic flow of strange particles are calculated in the framework of the single-freeze-out model and compared with the recent RHIC data. An overall very good agreement between the model predictions and the data is obtained.Comment: talk presented by WF during the VIIIth Int.

Weak Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering

We extend the analysis of the deeply virtual Compton scattering process to the weak interaction sector in the generalized Bjorken limit. The virtual Compton scattering amplitudes for the weak neutral and charged currents are calculated at the leading twist within the framework of the nonlocal light-cone expansion via coordinate space QCD string operators. Using a simple model, we estimate cross sections for neutrino scattering off the nucleon, relevant for future high intensity neutrino beam facilities.Comment: 30 pages, 11 figure
