Carrier lifetimes in ion-damaged GaAs [PDF]
Photoluminescence excitation correlation spectroscopy has been used to measure the dependence of carrier lifetime on the H+ ion implantation dose in GaAs. For doses greater than 1×10^12 cm^−2 the carrier lifetime is inversely proportional to the ion dose.

Comparison of Risk of Recrudescent Fever in Children With Kawasaki Disease Treated With Intravenous Immunoglobulin and Low-Dose vs High-Dose Aspirin [PDF]
Importance: Timely initiation of intravenous immunoglobulin plus aspirin is necessary for decreasing the risk of recrudescent fever and coronary artery abnormalities in children with Kawasaki disease (KD). The optimal dose of aspirin, however, remains

Assessing directionality in context
The directionality debate in interpreting revolves around the question of whether and how (simultaneous) interpreters’ performance differs when working from a second and into a first language compared to interpreting from a first and into a second ...

Modular Curves with many Points over Finite Fields
We compute the number of points over finite fields of some classes of modular curves, namely $X_0(N)$, $X_0^+(N)$, without using explicit equations. In this way we could improve many lower bounds for the maximum number of points of a curve over finite ...
