Non parabolic band transport in semiconductors: closure of the moment equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of the closure of the moment equations of the semiconductor Boltzmann equation was studied in the framework of the Kane dispersion relation (therefore avoiding the limitations of the parabolic band approximation).
Journal ArticleDOI

Central Schemes for Balance Laws of Relaxation Type

TL;DR: A generalization of the Nessyahu--Tadmor scheme to the nonhomogeneous case by including the cell averages of the production terms in the discrete balance equations and a second order scheme uniformly accurate in the relaxation parameter is derived and its properties analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning and sequencing of a full length cDNA coding for human retinol-binding protein

TL;DR: The sequence indicates that Retinol Binding Protein is synthesized as a single polypeptide chain precursor which is then matured to the secreted protein by removal of a leader peptide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non parabolic band transport in semiconductors: closure of the production terms in the moment equations

TL;DR: In this article, the Kane dispersion relation for the energy band was used to obtain closure relations for the production terms of the balance equations describing the motion of electrons in semiconductors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Operational definition of Active and Healthy Ageing (AHA): A conceptual framework

Jean Bousquet, +111 more
TL;DR: The current paper describes the rationale and the process by which the aims of the meeting will be reached and an operational definition of Active and Healthy Ageing including tools that may be used for this are proposed.
