Shape isomerism and shape coexistence effects on the Coulomb energy differences in the N = Z nucleus As-66 and neighboring T=1 multiplets

Excited states of the N = Z = 33 nucleus As-66 have been populated in a fusion-evaporation reaction and studied using gamma-ray spectroscopic techniques. Special emphasis was put into the search for candidates for the T = 1 states. A new 3(+) isomer has been observed with a lifetime of 1.1(3) ns. This is believed to be the predicted oblate shape isomer. The excited levels are discussed in terms of the shell model and of the complex excited Vampir approaches. Coulomb energy differences are determined from the comparison of the T = 1 states with their analog partners. The unusual behavior of the Coulomb energy differences in the A = 70 mass region is explained through different shape components (oblate and prolate) within the members of the same isospin multiplets. This breaking of the isospin symmetry is attributed to the correlations induced by the Coulomb interaction.

Hexerei und Ethnizität: das Beispiel der Jãana und ihrer Nachbarn in Burkina Faso /// Arbeitspapiere / Institut für Ethnologie und Afrikastudien ; 66

Um den Zusammenhang zwischen Hexerei und Ethnizität zu verdeutlichen, werden in diesem Artikel verschiedene theoretischer Ansätze zu Hexerei am Beispiel der Jãana und ihrer Nachbarn im Südwesten von Burkina Faso diskutiert. Dadurch werden sowohl die Parallelen – insbesondere zur Arbeit von Peter Geschiere – als auch die Besonderheiten zu anderen Studien deutlich. Der von mir verfolgte multiethnische Ansatz zeigt, dass Hexerei nicht nur innerhalb einer ethnischen Gruppe für das Zusammenleben relevant ist, sondern auch über ethnische Grenzen hinweg. Die Berücksichtigung der Selbst- und Fremdwahrnehmungen sowie der Interaktion zwischen Angehörigen verschiedener Ethnien (Jãana, Phuo und Lobi) schuf die Voraussetzung, ein differenziertes Bild von Hexerei und Ethnizität im bäuerlichen Alltag zu erhalten. Eine wichtige Erkenntnis ist dabei, dass manche Akteure ihr Hexer-Image bzw. die ihnen zugeschriebene okkulten Kräfte nicht nur als Mittel im Machtkampf mit anderen benutzen, sondern auch als Teil ihrer ethnischen Identität und Andersartigkeit ansehen.

Retrospective study of salinomycin toxicosis in 66 cats

We examined 66 cats with salinomycin intoxication. Salinomycin caused different LMN signs of varying degrees of severity in all cases. Changes in blood work were unspecific, with the most frequent being increased serum creatine kinase activity, leukocytosis, and increased liver enzymes. Pathological electrodiagnostic findings: fibrillation potentials and positive sharp waves were detected in 10 cases, motor nerve conductance velocity was mildly decreased in 8/12 cats, and sensory nerve conductance velocity and repetitive nerve stimulation were normal in all examined cases. In five cases the peripheral neuropathy was confirmed by pathohistology. Fluid therapy and supportive care were used as therapy and 52 cats recovered completely. The probability for complete remission was significantly different between mildly and severely affected cases. It seems that the severity of clinical signs and prognosis correlate well with the amount of toxin ingested. We conclude that early recognition and decontamination combined with supportive care results in complete recovery.

[Munchausen syndrome in a 66-year-old patient]

The study of a 66 year old woman's medical chart revealed many discordant elements, leading to the diagnosis of Munchausen's syndrome. The patient had been treated over a period of 20 years at the Medical polyclinic for a variety of symptoms concerning virtually all organs. Her son's chart similarly contains discordant elements, rising the suspicion of a Munchausen Syndrome "by proxy". With this case report, historical aspects and the therapeutic challenge of this syndrome are outlined.
