Cervicoscapulalgies professionnelles

Les cervicoscapulalgies peuvent être reconnues comme maladies professionnelles "hors tableaux de la sécurité sociale" dans de nombreuses professions où le rachis cervical est exposé. En outre, ces pathologies sont souvent associées à des affections de l\u27épaule - officiellement reconnues parmi les troubles musculo-squelettiques (TMS)

The Formation of Large Galactic Disks: Revival or Survival?

Using the deepest and the most complete set of observations of distant galaxies, we investigate how extended disks could have formed. Observations include spatially-resolved kinematics, detailed morphologies and photometry from UV to mid-IR. Six billion years ago, half of the present-day spiral progenitors had anomalous kinematics and morphologies, as well as relatively high gas fractions. We argue that gas-rich major mergers, i.e., fusions between gas-rich disk galaxies of similar mass, can be the likeliest driver for such strong peculiarities. This suggests a new channel of disk formation, e.g. many disks could be reformed after gas-rich mergers. This is found to be in perfect agreement with predictions from the state-of-the-art LCDM semi-empirical models: due to our sensitivity in detecting mergers at all phases, from pairs to relaxed post-mergers, we find a more accurate merger rate. The scenario can be finally confronted to properties of nearby galaxies, including M31 and galaxies showing ultra-faint, gigantic structures in their haloes.Comment: Proceedings of the annual meeting of the French Astronomical Society, 2011, 6 pages, 1 Figur

Multilateralismo y cambio climático: el caso de la República de India en la COP y el G20 durante el período 2008-2018

El presente trabajo se propone analizar la posición del gobierno de la República de India frente al cambio climático en dos espacios multilaterales puntuales, tales como la Conferencia de las Partes (COP) y el G20, durante el período 2008-2018 a la luz de un análisis que pretende además de incorporar cuestiones discursivas además de fácticas.Departamento de Medio Ambiente y Desarrollo.Instituto de Relaciones Internacionale

TETRA mobile radios interfere with electroencephalography recording equipment

We observed an anomaly in the human electroencephalogram (EEG) associated with exposure to terrestrial trunked radio (TETRA) Radiofrequency Fields (RF). Here, we characterize the time and frequency components of the anomaly and demonstrate that it is an artefact caused by TETRA RF interfering with the EEG recording equipment and not by any direct or indirect effect on the brain
