Growth in Weight of Selected Organs, Tissues and Systems in the Pig

As a result of investigations at the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station in 1929, 1930 and 1931 to determine the effect of weight and degree of fatness of the pork carcass upon the quality and palatability of the meat, 40 pigs were slaughtered, five each at the approximate live weights of 70, 80, 90, 100, 115, 135, 160, and 180 kg. This corresponds to carcass weights ranging from 50 to 150 kg. The results of the meat investigations and feedlot data were reported elsewhere (Loeffel et al.,1943). This study reports data relative to the weight of selected tissues and organs, as determined by dissection at slaughtering time

Using mixed data in the inverse scattering problem

Consider the fixed-$\ell$ inverse scattering problem. We show that the zeros of the regular solution of the Schr\"odinger equation, $r_{n}(E)$, which are monotonic functions of the energy, determine a unique potential when the domain of the energy is such that the $r_{n}(E)$ range from zero to infinity. This suggests that the use of the mixed data of phase-shifts $\{\delta(\ell_0,k), k \geq k_0 \} \cup \{\delta(\ell,k_0), \ell \geq \ell_0 \}$, for which the zeros of the regular solution are monotonic in both domains, and range from zero to infinity, offers the possibility of determining the potential in a unique way.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures.

Piecewise constant potentials and discrete ambiguities

This work is devoted to the study of discrete ambiguities. For parametrized potentials, they arise when the parameters are fitted to a finite number of phase-shifts. It generates phase equivalent potentials. Such equivalence was suggested to be due to the modulo $\pi$ uncertainty inherent to phase determinations. We show that a different class of phase-equivalent potentials exists. To this aim, use is made of piecewise constant potentials, the intervals of which are defined by the zeros of their regular solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation. We give a classification of the ambiguities in terms of indices which include the difference between exact phase modulo $\pi$ and the numbering of the wave function zeros.Comment: 26 pages Subject: Mathematical Physics math-p
