    Interpolating sequences for H∞(BH)

    No full text
    We prove that under the extended Carleson’s condition, a sequence (xn) ⊂ BH is linear interpolating for H∞(BH) for an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H. In particular, we construct the interpolating functions for each sequence and find a bound for the constant of interpolation.The author is supported by Project MTM 2011-22457 (Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, Spain) and Project P1-1B2014-35 (Universitat Jaume I, Spain

    Dynamical inference of BH populations in GCs

    1 online resource (xi, 135 pages) : graphsIncludes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (pages 128-135).The present-day black hole (BH) populations of globular clusters (GCs) have far-reaching implications for the evolution of these systems and the production of gravitational wave sources. Despite this, our ability to constrain these populations remains unclear. Using synthetic observations from CMC models, we test one dynamical method, finding it to be effective but likely underestimating uncertainties. Additionally, we introduce a new technique for combining dynamical models with pulsar timing, and apply it to two Milky Way GCs. This reveals a modest BH population in 47 Tuc (with a total mass of 446&plusmn;7572 M⊙), suggesting no need for a large central BH, and sets a significant upper limit for the mass in BHs in Terzan 5 of &sim; 4000 M⊙. This technique, not reliant on stellar kinematics, offers insights into the dynamics of even heavily obscured GCs and will benefit from future radio telescope observations.</p

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia de Produção.Esta pesquisa objetivou analisar a contribuição dada pelas ferramentas de TI para a modernização da gestão do negócio, do conhecimento e da aprendizagem organizacional no contexto das cooperativas de trabalho médico UNIMEDS. Tal objetivo evidencia o tipo de pesquisa realizada, que se caracteriza como sendo descritiva, cujo meio de investigação empregado foi o estudo de caso. Inicia-se com a fundamentação teórica, onde é abordada a tecnologia da informação, caracterizando-se a informação como recurso gerencial, nesta perspectiva. Também é contemplada a gestão do conhecimento, bem como a aprendizagem organizacional. A análise da contribuição dada pelas ferramentas de TI para a gestão do negócio, do conhecimento e da aprendizagem organizacional, foi realizada pelo estudo de caso, na Unimed de Belo Horizonte. A análise se deu a partir de um conjunto de variáveis, que caracterizam um ambiente de gestão do conhecimento, de acordo com a literatura analisada. Estas variáveis abrangeram, na Unimed de Belo Horizonte, o ambiente da informação, a estrutura organizacional, o capital intelectual, como ativo intangível e a prática do compartilhamento do conhecimento. O levantamento de dados, para a realização da pesquisa, foi realizado com base em uma pesquisa documental, sobre os registros internos da Unimed de Belo Horizonte, e de entrevistas com uma amostra de colaboradores, que se inseriam no período de tempo, adotado como critério. Tanto a amostra documental, quanto as entrevistas, foram agrupadas em torno das variáveis, criando extratos para a análise dos resultados. Baseados nestes extratos, os resultados da pesquisa mostraram, que as ferramentas de TI foram importantes para a evolução dos métodos de gestão do negócio da empresa. Constatou-se, também, que as ferramentas de TI constituem-se em importante instrumento a ser considerado na gestão do conhecimento e da aprendizagem organizacional no contexto da Unimed de Belo Horizonte

    An integrative review of systematic reviews related to the management of breathlessness in respiratory illnesses

    Background: breathlessness is a debilitating and distressing symptom in a wide variety of diseases and still a difficult symptom to manage. An integrative review of systematic reviews of non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions for breathlessness in non-malignant disease was undertaken to identify the current state of clinical understanding of the management of breathlessness and highlight promising interventions that merit further investigation.Methods: systematic reviews were identified via electronic databases between July 2007 and September 2009. Reviews were included within the study if they reported research on adult participants using either a measure of breathlessness or some other measure of respiratory symptoms.Results: in total 219 systematic reviews were identified and 153 included within the final review, of these 59 addressed non-pharmacological interventions and 94 addressed pharmacological interventions. The reviews covered in excess of 2000 trials. The majority of systematic reviews were conducted on interventions for asthma and COPD, and mainly focussed upon a small number of pharmacological interventions such as corticosteroids and bronchodilators, including beta-agonists. In contrast, other conditions involving breathlessness have received little or no attention and studies continue to focus upon pharmacological approaches. Moreover, although there are a number of non-pharmacological studies that have shown some promise, particularly for COPD, their conclusions are limited by a lack of good quality evidence from RCTs, small sample sizes and limited replication.Conclusions: more research should focus in the future on the management of breathlessness in respiratory diseases other than asthma and COPD. In addition, pharmacological treatments do not completely manage breathlessness and have an added burden of side effects. It is therefore important to focus more research on promising non-pharmacological intervention

    Evaluation and ranking of researchers--Bh Index.

    No full text
    Evaluation and ranking of every author is very crucial as it is widely used to evaluate the performance of the researcher. This article proposes a new method, called Bh-Index, to evaluate the researchers based on the publications and citations. The method is built on h-Index and only the h-core articles are taken into consideration. The method assigns value additions to those articles that receive significantly high citations in comparison to the h-Index of the researcher. It provides a wide range of values for a given h-Index and effective evaluation even for a short period. Use of Bh-Index along with the h-Index gives a powerful tool to evaluate the researchers

    ROVIBRATIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF X2Σ+^{2}\Sigma^{+} 11^{11}BH+^{+} BY THE EXTRAPOLATION OF PHOTOSELECTED HIGH-RYDBERG SERIES IN 11^{11}BH

    Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907; Department of Chemistry, University of British Columbia, 6174 University Boulevard,; Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z3Optical-optical-optical triple resonance spectroscopy of 11^{11}BH isolates high-Rydberg states that form series converging to rotational state specific ionization potentials in the vibrational levels of 11^{11}BH+^{+} from v+=0v^{+} = 0 through 44. Limits defined by a comprehensive fit of these series to state-detailed thresholds yield rovibrational constants describing the X2Σ+^{2}\Sigma^{+} state of 11^{11}BH+^{+}. The data provide a first determination of the vibration-rotation interaction parameter αe=0.4821{\alpha}_{e} = 0.4821 cm1^{-1} and a more accurate estimate of ωe=2526.58{\omega}_{e} = 2526.58 cm1^{-1} together with the higher-order anharmonic terms ωexe=61.98{\omega}_{e}x_{e} = 61.98 cm1^{-1} and ωeye=1.989{\omega}_{e}y_{e} = -1.989 cm1^{-1}. The deperturbation and global fit of series to state-detailed limits also yields a precise value of the adiabatic ionization potential of 11^{11}BH of 79120.3(1)79120.3(1) cm1^{-1}, or 9.81033(1)9.81033(1) eV.  \; High precision is afforded here by the use of graphical analysis techniques, narrow bandwidth laser systems, and an analysis of newly observed, high-principal quantum number Rydberg states that conform well with a Hund's case (d) electron-core coupling limit

    Mennicke J, Neumann BH. More on finite groups with few defining relations. Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society. 1989;46(1):132-136.Certain central products of the binary polyhedral groups with finite cyclic groups are here shown to have presentations with two generators and two defining relations; this disproves a conjecture of the second author, stated in J. Austral. Math. Soc. Ser. A 38 (1985), 230–240
