This study determined the scale of the phoresy of mesostigmatid mite by Ips typographus. Thirty pheromone traps in the Karkonosze National Park (Poland) caught 10,575 bark beetles on which there were 2,388 mesostigmatid mites belonging to eight species ...

A Mathematical Analysis and Evaluation of Varroa mite Control Methods for a Mite-infested Honey bee Colony [PDF]
In this paper, we present a mathematical model for the interaction between honey bees and mites. The dynamics of a mite-infested honey bee colony and the evaluation of the commonly used mite-control strategies (traditional, mechanical and chemical) are studied.

A Review of Scrub Typhus (Orientia tsutsugamushi and Related Organisms): Then, Now, and Tomorrow
Scrub typhus and the rickettsial diseases represent some of the oldest recognized vector-transmitted diseases, fraught with a rich historical aspect, particularly as applied to military/wartime situations.

Thermal equilibrium of a macroscopic quantum system in a pure state [PDF]
We consider the notion of thermal equilibrium for an individual closed macroscopic quantum system in a pure state, i.e., described by a wave function. The macroscopic properties in thermal equilibrium of such a system, determined by its wave function, must be the same as those obtained from thermodynamics, e.g., spatial uniformity of temperature and ...

A C2-tilde-lattice that is not residually finite [PDF]
We construct the first example of a lattice on an irreducible Euclidean building that is not residually finite. Conjecturally, the normal subgroup theorem extends to this lattice making it virtually simple.

Macroscopic and Microscopic Thermal Equilibrium [PDF]
We study the nature of and approach to thermal equilibrium in isolated quantum systems. An individual isolated macroscopic quantum system in a pure or mixed state is regarded as being in thermal equilibrium if all macroscopic observables assume rather sharply the values obtained from thermodynamics.
