Pseudo spin-valves with Al or Nb as spacer layer: GMR and search for spin switch behaviour
The magnetoresistance of several Ferromagnet/Normal metal/Ferromagnet spin-valve type structures has been investigated using Al as normal spacer layer. A magnetoresistance ratio up to 4.1% at room temperatu...

Classification of Digital Terrain Models Through Fuzzy Clustering: An Application
Experts classifications of spatial data are strongly affected by subjectivity and rigidity of rules. They do not take into account, in a quantitative way, the overlap of classes and as a major consequence, the...

Performance Analysis of a Single Server Queue Loaded by Long Range Dependent Input Traffic
Recent studies on broadband networks show that real traffics exhibit Long Range Dependence (LRD). Because of its dramatic consequences on queueing performances this property has to be taken into account in net...

Ito formula forC 1-functions of semimartingales
We establish an Ito formula forC 1 functions of processes whose time reversal are semimartingales and forC 1 functions whose first derivatives are Hölder continuous of any parameter and the process comes out from...

Estimation de la densité de la solution de l'équation de Zakaï robuste
We study the behaviour in small time of the density of the robust Zakaï equation under the weak Hörmander's hypothesis. We avoid large deviations phenomena by supposing that the drift at the departure is equal...

The effect of acute metabolic alkalosis on bicarbonate transport along the loop of Henle. The role of active transport processes and passive paracellular backflux
The loop of Henle (LOH) reabsorbs approximately 15% of filtered HCO 3 − via a luminal Na+-H+ exchanger and H+ATPase. During acute metabolic alkalosis (AMA) ind...

Autoradiographic assessment of pineal gland glucose utilization and capillary permeability in the unanesthetized rat
Pineal gland glucose utilization (GU) and capillary permeability (CP) were measured in unanesthetized rats, using complementary quantitative autoradiographic techniques. GU values within the pineal tissue were...
