Une nouvelle

Cette nouvelle espèce appartient morphologiquement au groupe de Caenopsylla inféodé aux Ctenodactylidae. Elle se caractérise immédiatement chez le mâle (la femelle n’est pas connue à ce jour) par la sétation du méso- et du métathorax et la structure des segments VIII et particulièrement IX dont le sternite est bifurqué en forme de fronde

Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma: computed tomography findings.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the appearance of bronchioloalveolar lung carcinoma on computed tomography (CT) scans, and to determine the frequency of signs suggestive of this diagnosis. CT features of 42 cases with pathologically proven bronchioloalveolar carcinoma were retrospectively analysed for pattern, size, location and secondary signs suggesting the diagnosis. Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma had one of the following patterns: solitary nodule or mass (16), lobar consolidation (10), multilobar consolidations (13) and diffuse nodules (3). The 16 solitary nodules or masses ranged in size from 2.0 to 9.4 cm (mean +/- SD 3.75 +/- 1.7 cm). Eleven of the 16 nodules or masses were peripheral and five were central: Eight of the 16 tumours had pleural tags, seven had spiculated margins, and three had bubblelike lucencies. The consolidations were peripherally distributed in 13 out of 23 cases; cystic airspaces were observed in 19 out of 23 consolidations; bulging of interlobar fissures in 8 out of 23; and the angiogram sign in 7 out of 23. In conclusion, computed tomography findings of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma have a wide spectrum, showing typically a peripheral nodule or consolidation. Computed tomography has a role in the diagnosis of nodular localized versus other forms, with subsequent therapeutic and prognostic implications

Current status of the engineering design of the test modules for the IFMIF

Under Broader Approach (BA) Agreement between EURATOM and Japan, IFMIF/EVEDA (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility/Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities) has been performed since the middle of 2007. IFMIF presents three main facilities (the Accelerator Facility, Li Target Facility and Test Facilities). A previous design of IFMIF was summarized in the comprehensive design report [1]. The present EVEDA phase aims at producing a detailed, complete and fully integrated engineering design of IFMIF. The delivery of the "Intermediate IFMIF Engineering Design Report" is foreseen mid-2013. The goal of IFMIF is to obtain the indispensable design database to allow the design and licensing of DEMO and ensuring commercial reactors thanks to the materials data set obtained from planned evaluation tests such irradiations in high flux test modules (HFTM-vertical rig, HFTM-horizontal rig), medium flux test modules (creep fatigue test module, tritium release test module, liquid breeder validation module) and low flux test modules of IFMIF. In addition, the Startup Monitoring Module will be used for IFMIF commissioning. This paper is summarizing the overall current progress status of the engineering and conceptual design of the test modules in IFMIF/EVEDA. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
