Noise Reduction of Steel Bridges with Non Ballast Tracks
Steel bridges without ballast are very often sources of annoying railway noise. While the insertion of a trough filled with ballast will lead to a noise reduction of about 6 dB(A), it causes an increase of the...

Different Trends of MRSA and VRE in a German Hospital, 1999–2005
Some of the clinically most menacing nosocomial pathogens are Methicillin-resistent Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Vancomycin-resistent Enterococcus (VRE). During the last years both pathogens showed dramati...

Vanishing and nilpotence of locally trivial symmetric spaces over regular schemes
We prove two results about Witt rings W(−) of regular schemes. First, given a semi-local regular ring R of Krull dimension d, if U is the punctured spectrum, obtained from Spec(R) by removing the maximal ideals ...

Presheaves of triangulated categories and reconstruction of schemes
To any triangulated category with tensor product \((K, \otimes)\) , we associate a topological space \({\rm Spc}(K, \otimes)\) , by means of thic...

Pharmacokinetics of amiodarone, desethylamiodarone and other iodine-containing amiodarone metabolites
In 23 patients treated with the iodine-containing antiarrhythmic drug amiodarone, the plasma concentrations of amiodarone, desethylamiodarone and iodine have been studied. Besides amiodarone and desethylamioda...

Differential Thermal Analysis for the Characterization of the Stability of Sludge
In stabilization processes such as aerobic stabilization, composting and digestion, the organic matter in the sludge is transformed to products with a lower total free energy content. Differential thermal anal...

Fluorescence quenching in Nd:YAG
We show that quenching of the Nd fluorescence is in principle not associated with the Nd3+ ion but with the host. The process is due to near-field electric dipole interaction between Nd pairs, and cross relaxatio...
