A dynamic localization of 2D electrons at mesoscopic length scales
We have investigated the local magneto-transport in high-quality 2D electron
systems at low carrier densities. The positive magneto-resistance in
perpendicular magnetic field in the strongly insulating regime has been
measured to evaluate the spatial concentration of localized states within a
mesoscopic region of the samples. An independent measurement of the electron
density within the same region shows an unexpected correspondence between the
density of electrons in the metallic regime and that of the localized states in
the insulating phase. We have argued that this correspondence manifests a rigid
distribution of electrons at low densities.Comment: 8 pages (incl 4 figures), double colum
Aspects of Scalar Field Dynamics in Gauss-Bonnet Brane Worlds
The Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet equations projected from the bulk to brane lead to
a complicated Friedmann equation which simplifies to in the
asymptotic regimes. The Randall-Sundrum (RS) scenario corresponds to
whereas & give rise to high energy Gauss-Bonnet (GB) regime and
the standard GR respectively. Amazingly, while evolving from RS regime to high
energy GB limit, one passes through a GR like region which has important
implications for brane world inflation. For tachyon GB inflation with
potentials investigated in this paper, the scalar to
tensor ratio of perturbations is maximum around the RS region and is
generally suppressed in the high energy regime for the positive values of .
The ratio is very low for at all energy scales relative to GB inflation
with ordinary scalar field. The models based upon tachyon inflation with
polynomial type of potentials with generic positive values of turn out to
be in the observational contour bound at all energy scales varying
from GR to high energy GB limit. The spectral index improves for the
lower values of and approaches its scale invariant limit for in the
high energy GB regime. The ratio also remains small for large negative
values of , however, difference arises for models close to scale invariance
limit. In this case, the tensor to scale ratio is large in the GB regime
whereas it is suppressed in the intermediate region between RS and GB. Within
the frame work of patch cosmologies governed by , the behavior
of ordinary scalar field near cosmological singularity and the nature of
scaling solutions are distinguished for the values of .Comment: 15 pages, 10 eps figures; appendix on various scales in GB brane

Pharmacological properties of selenium and its preparations: from antioxidant to neuroprotector
Selenium is an essential component of more than two dozen enzymes and other selenoproteins that play critical roles in reproduction, DNA synthesis, thyroid hormone metabolism, and protection from oxidative damage and infection. In this review, we want to emphasize pharmacological role of Selenium and its derivatives on human health is very complex and has yet to be fully understoo
The local crystallization in nanoscale diamond-like carbon films during annealing
The local crystallization during annealing at 600° C in nanoscale diamond-like carbon coatings films grown by pulsed vacuum-arc deposition method was observed using modern techniques of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The crystallites formed by annealing have a face-centred cubic crystal structure and grow in the direction [011] as a normal to the film surface. The number and size of the crystallites depend on the initial values of the intrinsic stresses before annealing, which in turn depend on the conditions of film growth. The sizes of crystallites are 10 nm for films with initial compressive stresses of 3 GPa and 17 nm for films with initial compres- sive stresses of 12 GPa. Areas of local crystallization arising during annealing have a structure dif- ferent from the graphit

Identification of particles with Lorentz factor up to with Transition Radiation Detectors based on micro-strip silicon detectors
This work is dedicated to the study of a technique for hadron identification
in the TeV momentum range, based on the simultaneous measurement of the
energies and of the emission angles of the Transition Radiation (TR) X-rays
with respect to the radiating particles. A detector setup has been built and
tested with particles in a wide range of Lorentz factors (from about to
about crossing different types of radiators. The measured
double-differential (in energy and angle) spectra of the TR photons are in a
reasonably good agreement with TR simulation predictions.Comment: 31 pages, 12 figures, paper published on Nuclear Instruments &

EFFECTS OF IMMUNOCORRECTION ON THE STATE OF CYTOKINES AND SLPI IN PATIENTS WITH PYELONEPHRITIS
The pro- and antiinflammatory cytokines, SLPI participate in antiinfective immunity, that is why it is necessary study their peculiarities in determination of the role in the immunopathogenesis of pyelonephritis and efficiency of treatment
Brane-world Cosmologies with non-local bulk effects
It is very common to ignore the non-local bulk effects in the study of
brane-world cosmologies using the brane-world approach. However, we shall
illustrate through the use of three different scenarios, that the non-local
bulk-effect does indeed have significant impact on both the
initial and future behaviour of brane-world cosmologies.Comment: 17 pages, no figures, iopart.cls, submitted to CQ
The Salpeter plasma correction for solar fusion reactions
We review five different derivations that demonstrate that the Salpeter
formula for the plasma corrections to fusion rates is valid at the center of
the sun with insignificant errors (~ percent). We point out errors in several
recent papers that have obtained a variety of answers, some even with the wrong
sign or the wrong functional dependence.Comment: Related information at http://www.sns.ias.edu/~jn
