Analysis of clonality and antibiotic resistance among early clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecium in the United States. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Enterococcus faecium genogroup, referred to as clonal complex 17 (CC17), seems to possess multiple determinants that increase its ability to survive and cause disease in nosocomial environments.

The adequacy of the present practice in dynamic aggregated modelling of wind farm systems [PDF]
Large offshore wind farms are usually composed of several hundred individual wind turbines, each turbine having its own complex set of dynamics. The analysis of the dynamic interaction between wind turbine generators (WTG), interconnecting ac cables, and

From Faddeev-Kulish to LSZ. Towards a non-perturbative description of colliding electrons
In a low energy approximation of the massless Yukawa theory (Nelson model) we derive a Faddeev-Kulish type formula for the scattering matrix of $N$ electrons and reformulate it in LSZ terms.
