of information exchanged between the local sites and the coordinator, and the rules adopted by the coordinator to compute the global diagnosis states. Finally, we prove that, as in the case of automata, diagnosability is strictly related to the presence of failure ambiguous strings. Published as: M.P. Cabasino

crucial for obtaining a good scintillator quality and stability. Keywords: PACS: 14.60.P, 29.40.M 1 Introduction The Palo Verde (Arizona) reactor neutrino experiment is a long baseline disappearance neutrino oscillation search [1]. Its goal is to test the $ e solution of the atmospheric neutrino

Abstract We used the 3D finite-difference method to model observed seismo-grams of two earthquakes (ML 4.9 and 3.5) in the Seattle region and to simulate ground motions for hypothetical M 6.5 and M 5.0 earthquakes on the Seattle fault, for periods greater than 2 sec. A 3D velocity model

els. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to assess the impact of HIF1a gene expression on prognosis. RESULTS: HIF1a was significantly corre-lated to every gene we tested: bFGF (P =.04), VEGF (P high HIF1a mRNA expression (cutoff, 75th percentile) had l fit, P =.02

with circulated mud recovered from 3479 m MD. We propose that these thin film smectite precipitates formed by natural nucleation and crystal growth during fault creep, probably associated with the shallow circulation of low temperature aqueous fluids along this shallow portion of the San Andreas Fault.

siltstones and fine-grained sandstones were encountered in the San Andreas Fault Zone during Stage 2 rotary drilling, we expect that paleomagnetic reorientation will yield reliable core orientations for continuous core acquired from directly within and adjacent to the San Andreas Fault during SAFOD Phase 3

Vascular constriction is said to account for a variety of clinical effects of cocaine. High-resolution 99mTc-hexamethyl-propylene amine oxime single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) scans, which measure cerebral blood flow, were used to determine whether neonatal brain perfusion

ABSTRACT A unique data set of seismograms for 720 source-receiver paths has been collected as part of a controlled source Vibroseis experiment San Andreas Fault (SAF) at Parkfield. In the experiment, seismic waves repeatedly illuminated the epicentral region of the expected M6 event at Parkfield

Fabric and timing relations of mode I microfractures are used to test current hypotheses for the origin of damage along large-displacement faults by the processes of fault growth and wear. Oriented samples 0.075 m to 1 km from the Punchbowl fault surface (i.e. ultracataclasite layer) document
