A purely algebraic construction of a gauge and renormalization group invariant scalar glueball operator
This paper presents a complete algebraic proof of the renormalizability of
the gauge invariant operator to all orders of
perturbation theory in pure Yang-Mills gauge theory, whereby working in the
Landau gauge. This renormalization is far from being trivial as mixing occurs
with other gauge variant operators, which we identify explicitly. We
determine the mixing matrix to all orders in perturbation theory by using
only algebraic arguments and consequently we can uncover a renormalization
group invariant by using the anomalous dimension matrix derived from
. We also present a future plan for calculating the mass of the lightest
scalar glueball with the help of the framework we have set up.Comment: 17 page
Study of the B^0 Semileptonic Decay Spectrum at the Upsilon(4S) Resonance
We have made a first measurement of the lepton momentum spectrum in a sample
of events enriched in neutral B's through a partial reconstruction of B0 -->
D*- l+ nu. This spectrum, measured with 2.38 fb**-1 of data collected at the
Upsilon(4S) resonance by the CLEO II detector, is compared directly to the
inclusive lepton spectrum from all Upsilon(4S) events in the same data set.
These two spectra are consistent with having the same shape above 1.5 GeV/c.
From the two spectra and two other CLEO measurements, we obtain the B0 and B+
semileptonic branching fractions, b0 and b+, their ratio, and the production
ratio f+-/f00 of B+ and B0 pairs at the Upsilon(4S). We report b+/b0=0.950
(+0.117-0.080) +- 0.091, b0 = (10.78 +- 0.60 +- 0.69)%, and b+ = (10.25 +- 0.57
+- 0.65)%. b+/b0 is equivalent to the ratio of charged to neutral B lifetimes,
tau+/tau0.Comment: 14 page, postscript file also available at

Observation of the Charmed Baryon Decays to , , and
We have observed two new decay modes of the charmed baryon into

CLEO II detector. We also present the first measurement of the branching
fraction for the previously observed decay mode . The branching fractions for these three modes relative to

Studies of the Cabbibo-Suppressed Decays and
Using 4.8 fb of data taken with the CLEO II detector, the branching
fraction for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay measured
relative to the Cabibbo favored decay is found to be

constraints, we determine We
also present a 90% confidence level upper limit for the branching ratio of the
decay relative to that for of

Acute coronary thrombolysis with recombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator: initial patency and influence of maintained infusion on reocclusion rate
An intravenous infusion of 40 mg of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) was given intravenously over 90 minutes to 123 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) of less than 4 hours' duration. A coronary angiogram was recorded at the end of the infusion in 119 patients. Central assessment of the angiograms revealed a patent infarct-related artery in 78 patients (patency rate 66%, 95% confidence limits 57 to 74%). Patients with a patent infarct-related artery at the first angiogram were randomized in a double-blind manner to receive a subsequent 6-hour infusion of either 30 mg of rt-PA or placebo. All patients had received an initial bolus of 5,000 IU of heparin and then 1,000 IU/hour until a second angiogram was recorded 6 to 24 hours after the start of the second perfusion. At central assessment of the second coronary angiogram the reocclusion rate was 2 of 36 patients who received rt-PA at the second infusion and 3 of 37 patients not receiving this drug (or the 2 groups combined 7%, 95% confidence limits 2 to 15%). Three of 60 patients (5%, 95% confidence limits 1 to 14%) with patent arteries on both previous angiograms had a later occ
