In a pinch [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2011
A 38-year-old woman presented with progressive exertional chest tightness. She had a history of an unrepaired secundum atrial septal defect and Eisenmenger's syndrome with severe pulmonary hypertension. Echocardiogram ( Panel A ) revealed right ventricular hypokinesis, right ventricular enlargement with flattening of the interventricular septum (arrow),

Impurity and Trace Tritium Transport in Tokamak Edge Turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The turbulent transport of impurity or minority species, as for example Tritium, is investigated in drift-Alfv\'en edge turbulence. The full effects of perpendicular and parallel convection are kept for the impurity species. The impurity density develops

Pinch Testing Positions Among Certified Hand Therapists: A Cross-Sectional Survey

open access: yesOpen Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2018
Background: Pinch strength is indicative of later functional hand use following injury to hand. However, we believe clinicians (and more specifically CHTs) currently do not use a consistent measurement of pinch grip, despite availability of a “gold ...

Fate of the Black String Instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Gregory and Laflamme showed that certain nonextremal black strings (and p-branes) are unstable to linearized perturbations. It is widely believed that this instability will cause the black string horizon to classically pinch off and then quantum ...
