TL;DR: The results of this national study indicate that the implementation of an IPV-containing poliovirus vaccine schedule has not had an adverse effect on the immunization status of young children who were vaccinated in the offices of practicing pediatricians.

TL;DR: Simultaneous CW generation of over 24 wavelength channels with 100GHz spacing at 1550 nm has been demonstrated at room temperature in a Raman ring laser with Fabry-Perot as discussed by the authors.

Abstract: A fundamental task of chemically amplified photoresists is to record the incident radiation by generating catalyst concentration gradients within the film. In many resists, the catalyst is a strong Bronsted acid which yields a latent image of pH within the exposed film. A number of mechanistic questions remain about acid generator efficiency and its mobility once generated and heated. We have developed a technique in which a pH-dependent fluorophore is incorporated into the resist (an undyed version of SAL 605 from the Shipley Company and similar formulations). The localized acid concentrations generated by exposure to x-rays are analyzed and imaged using fluorescence spectroscopy and microscopy. Initial experiments, the spectroscopic apparatus, and initial far-field imaging are reported elsewhere [S. J. Bukofsky, G. D. Feke, Q. Wu, R. D. Grober, P. M. Dentinger, and J. W. Taylor, Appl. Phys. Lett. 73, 3 (1998)]. In this article, several fluorophores are evaluated, and various criteria for successful imag...

TL;DR: A resonant cascade-Raman radiation source comprises a long optical fibre which is adapted for producing Raman radiation when pump radiation is passed along it as discussed by the authors. But it cannot be used as an efficient radiation source.

TL;DR: Differences in macro- and megafauna communities at the two experimental sites might be responsible for subsurface maxima in luminophore distribution and slightly (non-significantly) higher NLI values at this site, as well asications for a non-local transport of sediment particles from the surface to deeper parts of the sediment, resulting in higher values for the Non-Local Index (NLI).
