✦ Synopsis


Quasi-projectile events from peripheral 35 A MeV Au + Au collisions are compared with 25 A MeV Au + C, 25 and 35 A MeV Au + Cu and 35 A MeV Au + Au central events. By fitting the measured charge yields with the Fisher droplet model technique, all the different data sets coherently point to a value E * c ≈ 4.5 A MeV as the excitation energy where size distribution are best fitted by a power law. The physical parameters extracted from the fit strongly depend on the detailed shape assumed for the scaling function with the exception of τ and σ which are consistent with the critical exponents of the liquid-gas phase transition. Possible implications concerning the observation of a phase transition in multifragmentation experiments are discussed.

Interferon-gamma (IFN-y) has many important immunoregulatory functions. It has previously been presumed to be produced by activated lymphoid cells alone. The present study concerning the identification of IFN-y in neurons was initiated against the background that nerve function influences immunologi

In this respect, horses can be considered a reference species in studies designed to optimize physical training and disease prevention.
