Solar Spectral Irradiance Variability in November/December 2012: Comparison of Observations by Instruments on the International Space Station and Models
Onboard the International Space Station (ISS), two instruments are observing the solar spectral irradiance (SSI) at wavelengths from 16 to 2900 nm. Although the ISS platform orientation generally precludes pointi...

Predictive Capabilities of Avalanche Models for Solar Flares
We assess the predictive capabilities of various classes of avalanche models for solar flares. We demonstrate that avalanche models cannot generally be used to predict specific events because of their high sen...

A Reconstruction of Ultraviolet Spectral Irradiance During the Maunder Minimum
We present a reconstruction of the solar spectrum in the near and mid-ultraviolet spectral range during the Maunder Minimum, a period of strongly suppressed magnetic activity spanning the second half of the 17...

Analysis of Different Solar Spectral Irradiance Reconstructions and Their Impact on Solar Heating Rates
Proper numerical simulation of the Earth’s climate change requires reliable knowledge of solar irradiance and its variability on different time scales, as well as the wavelength dependence of this variability....

A Fast Model for the Reconstruction of Spectral Solar Irradiance in the Near- and Mid-Ultraviolet
We present a model for the reconstruction of spectral solar irradiance between 200 and 400 nm. This model is an extension of the total solar irradiance (TSI) model of Crouch et al. (Astrophys. J.

Solar Magnetic Activity and Total Irradiance Since the Maunder Minimum
We develop a model for estimating solar total irradiance since 1600 AD using the sunspot number record as input, since this is the only intrinsic record of solar activity extending back far enough in time. Su...

Hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism: a possible etiological factor of septic shock-induced acute renal failure
Hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism has been described in critically ill patients. The present study investigated the plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) in septic shock patients and its relationship with clin...

The solar corona as a minimum energy system?
This paper is an exploration of the possibility that the large-scale equilibrium of plasma and magnetic fields in the solar corona is a minimum energy state. Support for this conjecture is sought by considerin...

Further Thoughts on the Solar Corona as a Minimum Energy System
We conjecture that the global, large-scale structure of the solar corona represents a form of minimum energy state. We illustrate this conjecture with the help of an approximate model applicable to quiet solar...

Review of piperacillin/tazobactam in the treatment of bacteremic infections and summary of clinical efficacy
One method of resistance to beta-lactam antimicrobials involves production of beta-lactamases, enzymes that render the beta-lactam ineffective. Beta-lactamase inhibitors have been combined with beta-lactam ant...

Use of 11C-triphenylmethylphosphonium for the evaluation of membrane potential in the heart by positron-emission tomography
The membrane potential in cells can be estimated by electrophysiological techniques and biomedical methods using lipophilic cations labelled with 14C. However, these techniques cannot be applied to the human hear...
