On Power Law Inflation in DBI Models [PDF]
Inflationary models in string theory which identify the inflaton with an open string modulus lead to effective field theories with non-canonical kinetic terms: Dirac-Born-Infeld scalar field theories.

Cancer of the Throat: A Physician’s Experience as a Patient
The author, a practicing physician, was diagnosed with throat cancer and lost his vocal cords. He endured the side effects of radiation, repeated surgeries, and the effects of prolonged hospitalizations; confronted medical mistakes and discrimination ...

Ground state energy in a wormhole space-time [PDF]
The ground state energy of the massive scalar field with non-conformal coupling $\xi$ on the short-throat flat-space wormhole background is calculated by using zeta renormalization approach.

A patient preference study that evaluated fluticasone furoate and mometasone furoate nasal sprays for allergic rhinitis [PDF]
Background: Corticosteroid nasal sprays are the mainstay of treatment for allergic rhinitis. These sprays have sensory attributes such as scent and/or odor, taste and aftertaste, and run down the throat and/or the nose, which, when unpleasant, can affect

To find the influence of the suction chamber and throat inlet profiles on the cavitation performance of an annular jet pump (AJP), a numerical method using a combination of the realizable k–ϵ turbulence model and the Schnerr–Sauer cavitation model was ...

The Shape of Gravity in a Warped Deformed Conifold
We study the spectrum of the gravitational modes in Minkowski spacetime due to a 6-dimensional warped deformed conifold, i.e., a warped throat, in superstring theory. After identifying the zero mode as the usual 4D graviton, we present the KK spectrum as

The Prevalence of Group A Streptococci Carriers Among Asymptomatic School Children [PDF]
Aim: The Group A Streptococci (GAS) cause several suppurative and nonsuppurative infections. GAS frequently gets colonized in the throat of asymptomatic school children.

Geometric structure of the generic static traversable wormhole throat [PDF]
Traversable wormholes have traditionally been viewed as intrinsically topological entities in some multiply connected spacetime. Here, we show that topology is too limited a tool to accurately characterize a generic traversable wormhole: in general one ...

Curvatons in warped throats [PDF]
We present a curvaton model from type IIB string theory compactified on a warped throat with approximate isometries. Considering an (anti-)D3-brane sitting at the throat tip as a prototype standard model brane, we show that the brane's position in the isometry directions can play the role of curvatons. The basic picture is that the fluctuations of the (
