Microscopic model analyses of proton scattering from 12C, 20Ne, 24Mg, 28Si and 40Ca

Differential cross sections and analyzing powers for elastic scattering from, and for inelastic proton scattering to a set of $2^+_1$ states in, ${}^{12}$C, ${}^{20}$Ne, ${}^{24}$Mg, ${}^{28}$Si and ${}^{40}$Ca, and for a set of energies between 35 to 250 MeV, have been analyzed. A $g$-folding model has been used to determine optical potentials and a microscopic distorted wave approximation taken to analyze the inelastic data. The effective nucleon-nucleon interactions used to specify the optical potentials have also been used as the transition operators in the inelastic scattering processes. Shell and large space Hartree-Fock models of structure have been used to describe the nuclear states.Comment: 27 pages, 18 figure

A Terminology Server For Medical Language and Medical Information Systems

GALEN is developing a Terminology Server to support the development and integration of clinical systems through a range of key terminological services, built around a language-independent, reusable, shared system of concepts - the CORE model. The focus is on supporting applications for medical records, clinical user interfaces and clinical information systems, but also includes systems for natural language understanding, clinical decision support, management of coding and classification schemes, and bibliographic retrieval. The Terminology Server integrates three modules: the Concept Module which implements the GRAIL formalism and manages the internal representation of concept entities, the Multilingual Module which manages the mapping of concept entities to natural language, and the Code Conversion Module which manages the mapping of concept entities to and from existing coding and classification schemes. The Terminology Server also provides external referencing to concept entities, c..

A Terminology Server for Integrating Clinical Information Systems: The GALEN Approach

Terminologies have traditionally been considered as static datasets held in books or databases. The GALEN Terminology Server presents a prototype for a new view of terminologies as a set of functions and services provided to other applications as part of a strategy for sharing and re-using information and knowledge. The essential features of the Terminology server are the functions which it can perform: questions which it can answer and statements which it can be told. GALEN supports these operations through a modular architecture and uniform applications programming interface which allows client applications to ignore the internal structure and simply use the Server to provide them with terminological, coding, and linguistic functions. 1. Introduction: The Idea of a `Terminology Server' The authors [1-3]and others [4-7] have argued that if computerised systems are to play a significant role in clinical care, then it is essential to represent clinician's concept systems or `ontologies'..
