Which table salt to chose?

The link between salt consumption and hypertension has been the focus of many studies and clinical trials in the past few years. It is recommended that table salt intake does not exceed the maximum of 5g per day and yet most people find almost impossible to comply with this recommendation. New types of salt have recently appeared in the market and they claim to be less harmful to health than current commercial salt. Besides being less salty to the taste these new types of salt contain less sodium and more trace minerals than commercial salt but there is a need of experiments and studies in order to establish their benefit to health.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Exact Solutions of Two-Band Models of Graded-Gap Superlattices

We have theoretically investigated two-band models of graded-gap superlattices within the envelope-function approximation. Assuming that the gap varies linearly with spatial coordinate, we are able to find exact solutions of the corresponding Dirac-like equation describing the conduction- and valence-band envelope-functions. The dispersion relation inside allowed miniband of the superlattice may be expressed in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions in a closed form.Comment: 7 pages in REVTeX 3.0. 1 Figure on request to F.

Hadamard state in Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime

We construct a state in the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime which is invariant under the action of its group of symmetries. Our state is not defined in the whole Kruskal extension of this spacetime, but rather in a subset of the maximally extended conformal diagram. The construction is based on a careful use of the bulk-to-boundary technique. We will show that our state is Hadamard and that it is not a KMS state, differently from the case of states constructed in spacetimes containing only one event horizon.Comment: More emphasis put on the result. 41 pages.
