Open AccessImproved determination of the sample composition of dimuon events produced in \(p\bar{p}\) collisions at \(\sqrt{s}=1.96\) TeV
We use a new method to estimate with 5% accuracy the contribution of pion and kaon in-flight-decays to the dimuon data set acquired with the CDF detector. Based on this improved estimate, we show that the tota...

Hereditary motor neuropathy, distal type: electrophysiological and pathological studies of a case
A case of HMN, distal type transmitted as autosomal dominant is described. Clinical findings appear to be consistent with a peroneal muscular atrophy, indistinguishable from HMSN types I and II. The electrophy...
