Treatment with a Probiotic Mixture Containing Bifidobacterium animalis Subsp. Lactis BB12 and Enterococcus faecium L3....

Background: Probiotics may prevent the allergic response development due to their antiinflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. The aim of this study is to determine if the prophylactic treatment with a mixture of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. Lactis BB12 and Enterococcus faecium L3 would reduce…

Intermittency in turbulence: Computing the scaling exponents in shell models

We discuss a stochastic closure for the equation of motion satisfied by multiscale correlation functions in the framework of shell models of turbulence. We present a plausible closure scheme to calculate the anomalous scaling exponents of structure functions by using the exact constraints imposed…

Effect of an arbitrary spin orientation on the quadrupolar structure of an extended body in a Schwarzschild spacetime

The influence of an arbitrary spin orientation on the quadrupolar structure of an extended body moving in a Schwarzschild spacetime is investigated. The body dynamics is described by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon model, without any restriction on the motion or simplifying assumption on the…

Detection of Gaussian signals via hexagonal sensor networks

Easyreporting simplifies the implementation of Reproducible Research layers in R software

During last years "irreproducibility" became a general problem in omics data analysis due to the use of sophisticated and poorly described computational procedures. For avoiding misleading results, it is necessary to inspect and reproduce the entire data analysis as a unified product. Reproducible…

Simulating the ruin probability of risk processes with delay in claim settlement

Using importance sampling we give an asymptotic efficient simulation law for risk processes with delayed claims

Notes on RKDG methods for shallow-water equations in canal networks

PDE models for network flows are used in a number of different applications, including modeling of water channel networks. While the theory and first-order numerics are well developed, there is a lack of high-order schemes. We propose a Runge-Kutta discontinu- ous Galerkin method as an efficient,…

Hydrokinetic approach to large-scale cardiovascular blood flow

Gamma-Convergence of the Heitmann-Radin Sticky Disc Energy to the Crystalline Perimeter

We consider low-energy configurations for the Heitmann-Radin sticky discs functional, in the limit of diverging number of discs. More precisely, we renormalize the Heitmann-Radin potential by subtracting the minimal energy per particle, i.e. the so-called kissing number. For configurations whose…

Spinning test particles in Weyl spacetimes

The motion of spinning test particles along circular orbits in static vacuum spacetimes belonging to the Weyl class is discussed. Spin alignment and coupling with background parameters in the case of superimposed Weyl fields, corresponding to a single Schwarzschild black hole and single Chazy-…
