Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleation in Very Rapid Vapor Expansions
TL;DR: In this article, an approximate lower bound for the time (nucleation time) required for the formation of this system of embryos can be calculated by neglecting the thermodynamic barrier which impedes their formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and Hemodynamic Results of Intraaortic Balloon Pumping and Surgery for Cardiogenic Shock

TL;DR: IABP is a safe, effective means of supporting the circulation in CS-MI, and IABP alone will improve survival in some patients, and some patients with CS- MI have myocardial necrosis too extensive to permit survival without permanent circulatory assistance or total cardiac replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical Conductivity of Highly Ionized Argon Produced by Shock Waves
TL;DR: In this article, the electrical conductivity of high temperature argon produced by shock waves was investigated and it was shown that at low degrees of ionization, the diffusivity of electrons and thus the gas conductivity is determined by the cross section for electron-atom collisions which has been measured by mobility and by scattering techniques.
Journal Article
Experimental augmentation of coronary flow by retardation of the arterial pressure pulse.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Production and Stability of Converging Shock Waves
TL;DR: In this paper, Schlieren photographs are presented showing various phases of the formation and stability of these converging waves, and the experimental results of L. Smith's work and the theoretical work of Lighthill indicate that the stability decreases greatly at high Mach numbers.
