An account of Tibet and the Tibetan people that emphasises the political history of the 20th
century. This book attempts to reach beyond the polemics by considering the various …

OBJECTIVE: To develop a set of comprehensive, standardized evidence-based guidelines
for the assessment and treatment of acute asthma in adults in the emergency setting. …

Primary focal hyperhidrosis is a disorder of idiopathic excessive sweating that typically
affects the axillae, palms, soles, and face. The disorder, which affects up to 2.8% of the US …

We review the properties of hybrid stars with a quark matter core and a hadronic mantle,
focusing on the role of key micro-physical properties such as the quark/hadron surface and …

Methods A 25-item questionnaire was formulated, on the basis of similar previous published
surveys, for administration to a convenience sample of caregivers. It was administered by a …

We study a family of equations of state (EOS) for hybrid neutron star matter. The hybrid EOS
are obtained by a Maxwell construction of the first-order phase transition between a …

In this article we study the surface tension and the curvature energy of three-flavor quark
matter in equilibrium under weak interactions within the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model. We …

We introduce a family of equations of state (EoS) for hybrid neutron star (NS) matter that is
obtained by a two-zone parabolic interpolation between a soft hadronic EoS at low densities …

A class of hybrid compact star equations of state is investigated that joins by a Maxwell
construction a low-density phase of hadronic matter, modeled by a relativistic mean-field …

We present a comparative analysis of chiral quark models which include nonlocal covariant
four-fermion couplings. We consider two alternative ways of introducing the nonlocality, as …
