TL;DR: Upper and lower limits on the branching ratio, each at 95% C.L., are {ital B}({ital b}{r_arrow}{ital s}{gamma}){gt}1.0{times}10{sup {minus}4}.
Abstract: We have measured the inclusive {ital b}{r_arrow}{ital s}{gamma} branching ratio to be (2.32{plus_minus}0.57{plus_minus}0.35){times}10{sup {minus}4}, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. Upper and lower limits on the branching ratio, each at 95% C.L., are {ital B}({ital b}{r_arrow}{ital s}{gamma}){lt}4.2{times}10{sup {minus}4} and {ital B}({ital b}{r_arrow}{ital s}{gamma}){gt}1.0{times}10{sup {minus}4}. These limits restrict the parameters of extensions of the standard model.

TL;DR: This experiment provides evidence that N, P, and K all limit forest plants growing on a relatively fertile soil in the lowland tropics, with the strongest evidence for limitation by K among seedlings, saplings, and poles.
Abstract: We maintained a factorial nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) addition experiment for 11 years in a humid lowland forest growing on a relatively fertile soil in Panama to evaluate potential nutrient limitation of tree growth rates, fine-litter production, and fine-root biomass. We replicated the eight factorial treatments four times using 32 plots of 40 × 40 m each. The addition of K was associated with significant decreases in stand-level fine-root biomass and, in a companion study of seedlings, decreases in allocation to roots and increases in height growth rates. The addition of K and N together was associated with significant increases in growth rates of saplings and poles (1–10 cm in diameter at breast height) and a further marginally significant decrease in stand-level fine-root biomass. The addition of P was associated with a marginally significant (P = 0.058) increase in fine-litter production that was consistent across all litter fractions. Our experiment provides evidence that N, P, and K all limit forest plants growing on a relatively fertile soil in the lowland tropics, with the strongest evidence for limitation by K among seedlings, saplings, and poles.

TL;DR: A review of the basic physics underlying the r-process, the operation of the mechanisms for rprocess nucleosynthesis, the possible astrophysical sites, their time evolution in galactic evolution models, and the inferred ages of the Galaxy can be found in this article.

TL;DR: AMG 531 caused no major adverse events and increased platelet counts in patients with ITP, and increases in the platelet count were dose-dependent.
Abstract: Background Most current treatments for chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) act by decreasing platelet destruction. In a phase 1–2 study, we administered a thrombopoiesis-stimulating protein, AMG 531, to patients with ITP. Methods In phase 1, 24 patients who had received at least one treatment for ITP were assigned to escalating-dose cohorts of 4 patients each and given two identical doses of AMG 531 (0.2 to 10 μg per kilogram of body weight). In phase 2, 21 patients were randomly assigned to receive six weekly subcutaneous injections of AMG 531 (1, 3, or 6 μg per kilogram) or placebo. The primary objective was to assess the safety of AMG 531; the secondary objective was to evaluate platelet counts during and after treatment. Results No major adverse events that could be attributed directly to AMG 531 occurred during the treatment period; 4 of 41 patients had transient post-treatment worsening of thrombocytopenia. In phase 1, a platelet count that was within the targeted range (50,000 to 450,000 ...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the extension of the NextGen model atmosphere grid to the regime of giant stars and discuss the effects of spherical geometry on the structure of the atmospheres and the emitted spectra.
Abstract: We present the extension of our NextGen model atmosphere grid to the regime of giant stars. The input physics of the models presented here is nearly identical to that of the NextGen dwarf atmosphere models; however, spherical geometry is used self-consistently in the model calculations (including the radiative transfer). We revisit the discussion of the effects of spherical geometry on the structure of the atmospheres and the emitted spectra and discuss the results of non-LTE calculations for a few selected models.
