‘In the Heart of the Roman Metropolis’: an Italian Prologue to Synge’s Investigative Journalism

Studi Irlandesi, 2011
This article explores Synge’s trip to Italy and his sojourn in Rome in 1896. It will document his immersion into Italian culture as well as touching on the significance of his trip to Rome in light of his successive artistic career. The outcomes of Synge’

Insider/Outsider/Transsiders of Transnational Migration

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migration is individually and collectively a challenging but also a transformative praxis and process. In my proposal, I present these in the context of transnational migration of two multigenerational families whose pioneers originally migrated from Turkey to Germany.

Sojourn times in non-homogeneous QBD processes with processor sharing [PDF]

, 1999
We study sojourn times of customers in a processor sharing model with a service rate that varies over time, depending on the number of customers and on the state of a random environment.

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Incidences of colorectal adenomas and cancers under colonoscopy surveillance suggest an accelerated “Big Bang” pathway to CRC in three of the four Lynch syndromes

Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice
Background Colorectal cancers (CRCs) in the Lynch syndromes have been assumed to emerge through an accelerated adenoma-carcinoma pathway. In this model adenomas with deficient mismatch repair have an increased probability of acquiring additional cancer ...

(IR)Reverently Telling the Otherness through Paratextual Narrative

Messages, Sages and Ages, 2016
An inherent component of relocation narratives is the description of the protagonists’ process of building up their intercultural competence - whose range will vary from one expatriate narrator to another.

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Extremal values of the sojourn time

Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2010
Consider a self-adjoint operator H on a separable Hilbert space with non-trivial absolutely continuous component. We study the general properties of the real-valued functional, , which in quantum mechanics represents the sojourn time (or life time) of an initial state .

Daily hot‐water immersion preserves altitude‐induced haemoglobin mass expansion following descent independent of erythropoietin

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude exposure increases haemoglobin mass (Hbmass), a key determinant of arterial oxygen‐carrying capacity, but following descent this adaptation can regress toward baseline within 7 days. Long‐term heat acclimation has emerged as an alternative stimulus for Hbmass expansion; however, whether post‐altitude passive‐heat exposure can ...
