Decoherent histories analysis of models without time [PDF]
The decoherent histories approach is a particularly useful approach to quantum theory especially when time enters in a non-trivial way, or indeed, when there is no physical time coordinate at all, as is the case in quantum cosmology. Here, attempts to apply the decoherent histories approach to quantum cosmology are described.

ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

Event History Analysis of Women's Marriage Timing
本研究の目的は、現代女性の結婚行動を、主として社会階層的要因との関連において説明することである。三二四人の女性の個人データに基づき、結婚を早めたりあるいは遅らせたりする規定要因をイベントヒストリー分析を用いて明らかにする。分析の結果明らかになった知見は、第一に、現代において、女性の結婚の時機は、その出身家庭の社会的地位によっては規定されないこと、つまり結婚の時機を規定するのは、女性本人が形成した社会的地位それ自身である。第二に、学歴や職業といった女性の社会的地位が、結婚の機会や意思決定に影響し、高学歴女性や専門職など高い地位を達成した女性は結婚を遅らせるようになる。第三に、興味深い知見として、母親の就労は娘の結婚年齢を低下させる。

An earthquake is a random phenomenon in its intensity and frequency content. Since the earthquake is a signal that contains a band of frequencies, each frequency has a different energy. This means that the response of buildings to earthquakes depends not

ABSTRACT Background Platinum‐based chemotherapy is known to cause severe and debilitating hearing loss, but unlike cisplatin, the true incidence of carboplatin‐induced hearing loss remains unclear. We evaluated functional hearing outcomes in children receiving carboplatin to determine the incidence and severity of ototoxicity. Procedure We identified a
