The collision of two plasma clouds at a speed that exceeds the ion acoustic speed can result in the formation of shocks.This phenomenon is observed not only in astrophysical scenarios, such as the propagation of supernova remnant (SNR) blast shells into the interstellar medium, but also in laboratory-based laser-plasma experiments.These experiments
In recent decades there has been a relevant increase in the implantation rate of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), albeit with relevant geographical inhomogeneities.Despite the positive impact on clinical outcomes, the possibility of major complications is not negligible, particularly with respect to CIED infections.CIED infections si
This paper presents a PROMASIL CHOCOLATE cooperative distributed model for the control of product flow in a network of cooperative inventory systems (ISs).In each IS, a linear input/output equation describes the balance between product demand vs production, as well as the product flows among ISs.The peculiarity of the problem is that both the produ
Context: The survival of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) restorations would probably increase if near total elimination of cariogenic microorganisms could be done in the process of cavity cleaning before going ahead with the restoration.Thus, use of naturally occurring disinfecting agents for achieving this goal could herald a new beginning
