Enforcing Voluntary Compliance: The Need to Strengthen Hong Kong’s Merger and Acquisition Regulations
Creators: name: McMurtray, Nathan N.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1998

description: For many years commentators on merger and acquisition activities have noted that “the Pacific Rim has been and will become increasingly important.” Although several countries in the region are developing internal markets for these transactions, Hong Kong stands out in terms of size, volume and sophistication? Recently it has outpaced other regional markets and accounts for nearly one-third of the market share in Asia for these transactions (excluding Japan). Despite the recent financial turmoil throughout much of Asia, there remains reason to believe that the Hong Kong merger and acquisitions market will continue to grow. As China further liberalizes its economic policies and especially since Hong Kong has reverted to Chinese sovereignty, many mainland firms are looking overseas and commencing operations in Hong Kong. This is creating many potential new acquirers, targets, and increasing number of formerly rare transactions such as hostile takeovers and leveraged buyouts. Yet these changes also have the potential to slow or halt the development of this important financial market segment if not appropriately regulated. Perhaps reflecting this, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission recently announced that it would review the Hong Kong Code on Mergers and Takeovers (the “Code”) for the first time since 1992. Although the modifications discussed thus far by the Commission are limited in scope, a broad-based review and revamping of the regulatory system could be beneficial and bring the regulation of merger activity into closer harmony with the dramatic differences in the business and political environment since the Code was first put in place.

description: The relativistic transport model, in which the nucleon effective mass is connected to the scalar field while its energy is shifted by the vector potential, is extended to include the kaon degree of freedom. We further take into account the medium modification of the kaon mass due to the explicit chiral symmetry breaking. Both the propagation of kaons in the mean-field potential and the kaon-baryon elastic scattering are explicitly treated in our study. We find that the attractive kaon scalar mean-field potential in the dense matter leads to an enhanced kaon yield in heavy-ion collisions at energies of about 1 GeV/nucleon. The final-state kaon-baryon scattering is seen to affect significantly the kaon momentum spectra, leading to an enhanced yield of kaons with large momenta or at large laboratory angles. With a soft nuclear equation of state and including the attractive kaon scalar potential, the calculated kaon energy spectra agree with the data from the heavy-ion synchrotron at GSI.

description: We generalize the diffusive model for spin injection and detection in nonlocal spin structures to account for spin precession under an applied magnetic field in an anisotropic medium, for which the spin lifetime is not unique and depends on the spin orientation.We demonstrate that the spin precession (Hanle) line shape is strongly dependent on the degree of anisotropy and on the orientation of the magnetic field. In particular, we show that the anisotropy of the spin lifetime can be extracted from the measured spin signal, after dephasing in an oblique magnetic field, by using an analytical formula with a single fitting parameter. Alternatively, after identifying the fingerprints associated with the anisotropy, we propose a simple scaling of the Hanle line shapes at specific magnetic field orientations that results in a universal curve only in the isotropic case. The deviation from the universal curve can be used as a complementary means of quantifying the anisotropy by direct comparison with the solution of our generalized model. Finally, we applied our model to graphene devices and find that the spin relaxation for graphene on silicon oxide is isotropic within our experimental resolution.
Large-order perturbation theory for the electromagnetic current-current correlation function

description: The constraints imposed by asymptotic freedom and analyticity on the large-order behavior of perturbation theory for the electromagnetic current-current correlation function are examined. By suitably applying the renormalization group, the coefficients of the asymptotic expansion in the deep Euclidean region may be expressed explicitly in terms of the perturbative coefficients of the Minkowski space discontinuity (the $R$-ratio in $e^+ e^-$ scattering). This relation yields a ``generic'' prediction for the large-order behavior of the Euclidean perturbation series and suggests the presence of non-perturbative $1/q^2$ correction in the Euclidian correlation function. No such ``generic'' prediction can be made for the physically measurable $R$-ratio. A novel functional method is developed to obtain these results.

The Japanese Prosecutorial Justice and Its Limited Exclusionary Rule
Creators: name: Cho, Kuk
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1998

description: The basic structure of the Japanese criminal justice system is modeled after the Continental criminal justice system emphasizing substantial justice and truth-finding. It often draws admiring attention from the West because of its lower crime rate and higher clearance rate. It is also viewed as “benevolent” due to the lenient disposition of trivial crimes (bizai shobun) by police, routine suspension of prosecution, suspended sentences and short sentences at trial Japanese police have been praised for the rarity of corruption and brutality and for the support and cooperation received from the public. This phenomenon is often explained as a result of the unique traditional Japanese legal culture which emphasizes respect to authority and reintegration into the community. Despite the praise from the West, however, this “heaven for a cop has recently been criticized from within the Japanese legal professional community because of its harsh institutional and cultural treatment of criminal suspects and defendants. A leading Japanese criminal law scholar has criticized Japanese criminal trials as “regrettable” because of the dominant role of investigators in the criminal process. A number of torture and physical violence cases have been revealed. Public trust in the Japanese criminal justice system has also been shaken by the disclosure of a number of highly-publicized retrial cases in which individuals, mistakenly convicted of murders and wrongly sentenced to death, were acquitted after decades on death row. As a result, fundamental reform of the system has been strongly recommended.

description: FeSe, despite being the structurally simplest compound in the family of iron-based superconductors, shows an astoundingly rich interplay of physical phenomena including nematicity and pressure-induced magnetism. Here, we present a microscopic study of these two phenomena by high-energy x-ray diffraction and time-domain Mössbauer spectroscopy on FeSe single crystals over a wide temperature and pressure range. The topology of the pressure-temperature phase diagram is a surprisingly close parallel to the well-known doping-temperature phase diagram of BaFe2As2 generated through partial Fe/Co and Ba/Na substitution. In FeSe with pressure p as a control parameter, the magneto-structural ground state can be tuned from "pure" nematic - paramagnetic with an orthorhombic lattice distortion - through a strongly coupled magnetically ordered and orthorhombic state to a magnetically ordered state without an orthorhombic lattice distortion. The magnetic hyperfine field increases monotonically over a wide pressure range. However, the orthorhombic distortion initially decreases under increasing pressure, but is stabilized by cooperative coupling to the pressure-induced magnetic order. Close to the reported maximum of the superconducting critical temperature Tc (occuring at p = 6.8 GPa), the orthorhombic distortion suddenly disappears and FeSe remains tetragonal down to the lowest temperature measured. Analysis of the structural and magnetic order parameters suggests an independent origin of the structural and magnetic ordering phenomena, and their cooperative coupling leads to the similarity with the canonical phase diagram of iron pnictides.

description: 1. Compared to information for herbivores and omnivores, knowledge on xenobiotic metabolism in carnivores is limited. The cytochrome P450 2C (CYP2C) subfamily is recognized as one of the most important CYP groups in human and dog. We identified and characterized CYP2C isoforms and variants in cat, which is an obligate carnivore. 2. Quantitative RT-PCR and immunoblot analyses were carried out to evaluate the expression of CYP2C in the liver and small intestine. A functional CYP2C isoform was heterologously expressed in yeast microsomes to determine the enzymatic activity. 3. Cat had two CYP2C genes, 21 and 41, in the genome; however, CYP2C21P was a pseudogene that had many stop codons. Three splicing variants of CYP2C41 were identified (v1–v3), but only one of them (v1) showed a complete deduced amino acid sequence as CYP2C protein. Transcripts of feline CYP2C41v1 were detected but the amounts were negligible or very small in the liver and small intestine. Immunoreactivity to an antihuman CYP2C antibody was confirmed in the recombinant feline CYP2C41v1 but not in the feline liver. 4. Recombinant feline CYP2C41v1 metabolized several substrates, including dibenzylfluorescein that is specific to human CYP2C. 5. The results suggest a limited role of functional CYP2C isoforms in xenobiotic metabolism in cat.
title: MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDY OF STRESS-STRAIN CURVES FOR γ-Fe AND HADFIELD STEEL IDEAL CRYSTALS AT SHEAR ALONG THE <111> DIRECTION

description: The molecular dynamics method was used to simulate the shear along the <111> direction in Hadfield steel and a pure fcc Fe crystal. The stress-strain curves are obtained depending on the shear rate, the size of the computational cell, and temperature. It is shown that the shear rate in the range of 10–100 m/s has little effect on the theoretical strength at a constant temperature. With increasing temperature, the slope of the stress-strain dependences in the elastic region decreased, which is due to the temperature dependence of the elastic moduli. In addition, the temperature significantly influenced the theoretical strength – with an increase in temperature, plastic deformation began in ideal crystals at lower deformation values. Moreover, this dependence was more pronounced for a pure fcc Fe crystal than for Hadfield steel, which initially had structural imperfections caused by the presence of impurities that facilitate the initiation of plastic shears in a pure crystal. In this regard, at medium and low temperatures, the theoretical strength of pure iron was higher than that of steel. But at high temperatures (above 1200 K), its values for both materials became almost the same.

description: The oscillations of pseudo-Dirac neutrinos in matter are discussed and applied to the solar neutrino problem. Several scenarios such as both $ν_e$ and $ν_μ$ being pseudo-Dirac and only $ν_e$ or $ν_μ$ being pseudo-Dirac are examined. It is shown that the allowed region in the mass-mixing angle parameter space obtained by comparing the solar neutrino data with the calculations based on the standard solar model and the MSW effect is not unique. The results depend on the nature of neutrinos; for example, if both $ν_e$ and $ν_μ$ are pseudo-Dirac, the allowed region determined by the current solar neutrino data does not overlap with that obtained in the usual case of pure Dirac or Majorana neutrinos.

Autonomy, Qualification and Professionalism of the PRC Bar

Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1998

description: In May 1996 the Lawyers’ Law of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) was promulgated to replace the PRC Provisional Regulations on Lawyers (hereafter referred to as the Regulations on Lawyers) in existence since 1980. The Lawyers’ Law represents a compromise resulting from the endeavors of the PRC authorities and the Chinese Bar to develop a moreprofessional and accountable legal community. This paper analyzes the evolution of the PRC legal community since the early 1980s. The changes in the PRC legal community have been phenomenal during the past decade. After the establishment of the Communist regime in 1949, lawyers in China had been degraded, frustrated, and trivialized for nearly three decades due to political campaigns. The legal community revived in the 1980s to provide legal services under the Regulations on Lawyers. Being charged with upholding the socialist legal system throughout their activities, for many years lawyers were de facto state authority figures.

description: The elementary production cross sections $πΔ\rightarrow Y K$ $(Y=Σ,\,\, Λ)$ and $πN \rightarrow Y K$ are needed to describe kaon production in heavy ion collisions. The $πN \rightarrow Y K$ reactions were studied previously by a resonance model. The model can explain the experimental data quite well \cite{tsu}. In this article, the total cross sections $πΔ\rightarrow Y K$ at intermediate energies (from the kaon production threshold to3 GeV of $πΔ$ center-of-mass energy) are calculated for the first time using the same resonance model. The resonances, $N(1710)\,I(J^P) = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2}^+)$ and $N(1720)\, \frac{1}{2} (\frac{3}{2}^+)$ for the $πΔ\rightarrow ΣK$ reactions, and $N(1650)\, \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}^-)$, $N(1710)\, \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}^+)$ and $N(1720)\, \frac{1}{2} (\frac{3}{2}^+)$ for the $πΔ\rightarrow ΛK$ reactions are taken into account coherently as the intermediate states in the calculations. Also t-channel $K^*(892) \frac{1}{2}(1^-)$ vector meson exchange is included. The results show that $K^*(892)$ exchange is neglegible for the $πΔ\rightarrow ΣK$ reactions, whereas this meson does not contribute to the $πΔ\rightarrow ΛK$ reactions. Furthemore, the $πΔ\rightarrow Y K$ contributions to kaon production in heavy ion collisions are not only non-neglegible but also very different from the $πN \rightarrow Y K$ reactions. An argument valid for $πN \rightarrow Y K$ cannot be extended to $πΔ\rightarrow Y K$ reactions. Therefore, cross sections for $πΔ\rightarrow Y K$ including correctly the different isospins must be

description: This paper presents first results of experimental test runs in a lab-scale fluidized bed reactor at TU Wien to predict the agglomeration temperature of exhausted olive pomace. The controlled fluidized bed agglomeration test indicates an agglomeration temperature of approximate 945 °C by the occurrence of a pressure drop in the fluidized bed. The agglomeration phenomena is explained by the mechanism of initial low melting layer formation around burning char particles. The goal is to establish a standard prediction method based on other performed tests in similar lab-scale reactors.

description: Nachdem eine Reihe positiver Massenbilanzjahre in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten des 20.Jahrhunderts zu einem regionalen Anwachsen des Gletschervolumens in den Southern Alps auf Neuseeland führte, verlor die Gletscherregion speziell in den letzten zehn Jahren jährlich teils in Rekordhöhe an Eisvolumen. Hauptursache für diese Entwicklung ist das überdurchschnittlich häufige Auftreten atmosphärischer Zirkulationsmuster mit nördlichen und östlichen Luftströmungen, welche warme und trockene Sommer mit sich bringen. An langen Talgletschern mit großflächiger Debrisdecke stellt der aktuelle Gletscherrückzug überwiegend noch eine verzögerte Anpassung an veränderte Klimabedingungen nach Ende der »Kleinen Eiszeit« dar. Global climate change and New Zealand’s glaciers: After a series of positive mass budget years caused an increase in glacier volume on regional scale during the last two decades of the 20th century, the Southern Alps of New Zealand experienced partly record-high annual ice volume losses especially during the past ten years. Main reason for this development is the above-average occurrence of atmospheric circulation patterns with northerly and easterly airflows causing warm and dry summers. At the long debris-covered valley glaciers the current glacier retreat still mainly constitutes a delayed adjustment to changed climatic conditions after termination of the »Little Ice Age«.

description: Due to their small size and low density, nanoplastics can deposit in the lower respiratory tract, including the alveoli. Moreover, they can act as carriers of microbial contaminants, which may constitute an additional source of risk. Workers in waste management industries may be particularly susceptible to inhalation of airborne nanoplastics, but the health effects of such exposure require further investigation. In this study, synthesized polyethylene terephthalate (PET) nanoplastics from recycled juice bottles or commodity PET pellets were analyzed for microbial contamination using HEK Toll-like receptor (TLR) reporter cells. Changes in cell viability and inflammatory cytokines were then studied in an alveolar cell co-culture model (A549/dTHP-1), where we hypothesized that PET nanoplastics activating TLRs would induce a stronger response than those free from microbial ligands.

description: The long mean free path of $K^+$ mesons in nuclear matter makes this particle a suitable messenger for the dynamics of nucleus-nucleus reactions at intermediate energies (100 MeV to 3 GeV per nucleon). A prerequisite for this is the knowledge of the elementary production cross sections $πN \rightarrow ΣK$. Here these cross sections are studied for the first time with the explicite inclusion of the relevant baryon resonances up to 2 GeV as intermediate states. The baryon resonances -- $N(1710)\, I(J^P) = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}^+),\, N(1720)\, \frac{1}{2} (\frac{3}{2}^+)$ and $Δ(1920)\, \frac{3}{2} (\frac{3}{2}^+)\,$ -- are taken into account coherently in the calculations of the $πN \rightarrow ΣK$ process. (We refer to this model as the `resonance model'.) Also $K^*(892)\frac{1}{2} (1^-)$ vector meson exchange is included. It is shown that the total cross sections for different channels of the $πN \rightarrow Σk$ reactions, i.e. $π^+ p \rightarrow Σ^+ K^+$, $π^- p \rightarrow Σ^- K^+$, $π^+ n \rightarrow Σ^0 K^+$ ($π^- p \rightarrow Σ^- K^+$) and $π^0 p \rightarrow Σ^0 K^+$ differ not only by absolute values but also by their energy dependence. This shape differences are due to the mixture of the isospin $I = 3/2$ $Δ(1920)$ with isospin $I = 1/2$ nucleon resonances. However, this $I = 3/2$ resonance does not give a contribution to the $πN \rightarrow ΛK$ reactions. So the shapes of the total cross sections $πN \rightarrow ΛK$ for different isospin projections are the same. In spite of this, such cross sections averaged over different isospin projections in the same multiplet

Socialist Legal Theory in Deng Xiaoping’s China
Creators: name: Lo, Carlos Wing-Hung
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1997

description: After assuming supreme power in the People’s Republic of China in late 1978, Deng Xiaoping was most insistent that law was essential to socialist modernization and that Maoist legal nihilism had to be combated. He inaugurated a massive program to reform and restructure the legal system. Accordingly, the Party and State Constitutions were revised, law was codified,judicial organs were reorganized and the academic discipline of legal studies was revived. The aim was to replace what was referred to as the ‘rule of persons’ by the rule of law. By the time of his death in early 1997, much had been achieved. Though defects in the system remain and have been highlighted by many scholars, it is fair to say that China’s socialist legal system has gone far beyond the old instrumental notion of safeguarding the rule of a Marxist Party. In the context of promoting economic modernization, law has increasingly been seen as the principal means for resolving conflict and maintaining social order. While many scholars have noted Deng’s limited success in instituting the rule of law,’ one must concede that China is no longer faced with the legal nihilism of the Maoist era.

description: Stars with hot Jupiters tend to be rotating faster than other stars of the same age and mass. This trend has been attributed to tidal interactions between the star and planet. A constraint on the dissipation parameter $Q_\star'$ follows from the assumption that tides have managed to spin up the star to the observed rate within the age of the system. This technique was applied previously to HATS-18 and WASP-19. Here we analyze the sample of all 188 known hot Jupiters with an orbital period $< 3.5$ days and a "cool" host star ($T_{eff} < 6100$ K). We find evidence that the tidal dissipation parameter ($Q_\star'$) increases sharply with forcing frequency, from $10^5$ at 0.5 day$^{-1}$ to $10^7$ at 2 day$^{-1}$. This helps to resolve a number of apparent discrepancies between studies of tidal dissipation in binary stars, hot Jupiters, and warm Jupiters. It may also allow for a hot Jupiter to damp the obliquity of its host star prior to being destroyed by tidal decay.

Dark Matter with Variable Masses

description: String effective theories contain a dilaton scalar field which couples to gravity, matter and radiation. In general, particle masses will have different dilaton couplings. We can always choose a conformal frame in which baryons have constant masses while (non--baryonic) dark matter have variable masses, in the context of a scalar--tensor gravity theory. We are interested in the phenomenology of this scenario. Dark matter with variable masses could have a measurable effect on the dynamical motion of the halo of spiral galaxies, which may affect cold dark matter models of galaxy formation. As a consequence of variable masses, the energy--momentum tensor is not conserved; there is a dissipative effect, due to the dilaton coupling, associated with a ``dark entropy" production. In particular, if axions had variable masses they could be diluted away, thus opening the ``axion window". Assuming that dark matter with variable masses dominates the cosmological evolution during the matter era, it will affect the primordial nucleosynthesis predictions on the abundances of light elements. Furthermore, the dilaton also couples to radiation in the form of a variable gauge coupling. Experimental bounds will constrain the parameters of this model.

Functioning Anarchy: India’s National Telecommunications Policy and the Development of Basic Telephone Services
Creators: name: Swaminathan, Rajesh
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1997

description: The Government of India’s (GOI) efforts to implement its 1994 National Telecommunication Policy are perhaps most appropriately summed up by paraphrasing John Kenneth Galbraith’s memorable assessment of India: as he said of the country, one may say of the Policy that it is “functioning anarchy.” Since its articulation by the Congress (I) government of Prime Minister P. V. Narasimha Rao, it has been shown to be haphazardly conceived, modified on an ad hoc basis, badly implemented and abused for private gain. Nevertheless, in its own perveise way, it has made possible the incremental and still incomplete, but probably irreversible, liberalization of the telecommunications sector. Nowhere is this paradox more evident than in the government’s efforts to promote the development of “basic” telecommunication services, as envisioned in the Policy. From the outset, this endeavor has been crippled by enduring conflicts of interest, a sometimes stunning incomprehension about the technical aspects of the telecommunications industry, an intermittent disregard for economic analysis and a vestigial loyalty to the Fabian socialism of the Nehruvian state. In this paper, I attempt to survey this process of reform, and to offer some tentative assessments of its irregular progress.

Dispute Resolution in China after Deng Xiaoping: Mao and Mediation Revisited
Creators: name: Lubman, Stanley B.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1997

description: Dispute resolution, like all other aspects of Chinese society, is being reshaped by extensive reforms that began in 1979. The changes do not only concern Chinese, who are now sometimes able to assert rights that they have never had before, but foreigners as well. As China’s influence in the international community grows, other nations must also be concerned about the capacity of Chinese legal institutions to perform their declared functions. Notably, for example, if China accedes to the World Trade Organization the Chinese government will be obligated to make China a more rule-based society than it has ever been. Larger issues are involved, too, especially China’s ability to move toward the rule of law that its leaders have proclaimed as a goal. In view of these concerns, Western analysis of the functions and operation of the Chinese courts and related institutions should be deepened. Studying Chinese law today requires that we look beyond the rapid changes that have aroused world-wide attention since they began. It is necessary to consider both the starting point of legal reform and the obstacles to future progress. I have therefore looked back at Chinese institutions for dispute resolution when I first wrote about them in “Mao and Mediation,”‘ published thirty years ago when studies of Chinese law in the United States were still in an early stage. That attempt to understand and interpret China’s legal institutions was prompted by my concern about American ignorance of China that flowed from the Sino-American estrangement of the time. Now, three decades later, China’s extraordinary transformations and entry into the community of nations make it even more necessary to use law as a prism through which to view China.

Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in Heavy Deformed Nuclei

description: The zero neutrino mode of the double beta decay in heavy deformed nuclei is investigated in the framework of the pseudo SU(3) model, which has provided an accurate description of collective nuclear structure and predicted half-lives for the two neutrino mode in good agreement with experiments. In the case of $^{238}U$ the calculated zero neutrino half-life is at least three orders of magnitude greater than the two neutrino one, giving strong support of the identification of the radiochemically determined half-life as being the two neutrino double beta decay. For $^{150}Nd$ the zero neutrino matrix elements are of the order of magnitude of, but lesser than, those evaluated using the QRPA. This result confirms that different nuclear models produce similar zero neutrino matrix elements, contrary to the two neutrino case. Using these pseudo SU(3) results and the upper limit for the neutrino mass we estimate the $ββ_{0ν}$ half-lives for six nuclei. An upper limit for majoron coupling constant is extracted from the experimental data.

Screening of Very Intense Magnetic Fields by Chiral Symmetry Breaking
Creators: name: Bander, Myron

Year: 1992

description: In very intense magnetic fields, $B > 1.5\times 10^{14}$ T, the breaking of the strong interaction $SU(2)\times SU(2)$ symmetry arranges itself so that instead of the neutral $σ$ field acquiring a vacuum expectation value it is the charged $π$ field that does and the magnetic field is screened. Details are presented for a magnetic field generated by a current in a wire; we show that the magnetic field is screened out to a distance $ρ_o\sim I/f_πm_π$ from the wire.

The chemistry of disks around T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be stars

description: Infrared and (sub-)mm observations of disks around T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be stars point to a chemical differentiation between both types of disks, with a lower detection rate of molecules in disks around hotter stars. To investigate the potential underlying causes we perform a comparative study of the chemistry of T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be disks, using a model that pays special attention to photochemistry. The warmer disk temperatures and higher ultraviolet flux of Herbig stars compared to T Tauri stars induce some differences in the disk chemistry. In the hot inner regions, H2O, and simple organic molecules like C2H2, HCN, and CH4 are predicted to be very abundant in T Tauri disks and even more in Herbig Ae/Be disks, in contrast with infrared observations that find a much lower detection rate of water and simple organics toward disks around hotter stars. In the outer regions, the model indicates that the molecules typically observed in disks, like HCN, CN, C2H, H2CO, CS, SO, and HCO+, do not have drastic abundance differences between T Tauri and Herbig Ae disks. Some species produced under the action of photochemistry, like C2H and CN, are predicted to have slightly lower abundances around Herbig Ae stars due to a narrowing of the photochemically active layer. Observations indeed suggest that these radicals are somewhat less abundant in Herbig Ae disks, although in any case the inferred abundance differences are small, of a factor of a few at most. A clear chemical differentiation between both types of disks concerns ices, which are expected to be more abundant in Herbig Ae disks. The global chemical behavior of T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be disks is quite similar. The main differences are driven by the warmer temperatures of the latter, which result in a larger reservoir or water and simple organics in the inner regions and a lower mass of ices in the outer disk.

Pionic Content of Rho-N-N and Rho-N-Delta Vertex Functions
Creators: name: Haider, Q.

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: The dynamical content of rho-N-N and rho-N-Delta vertex functions is studied with a mesonic model. A set of coupled integral equations satisfied by these vertex functions were solved self-consistently. These soulutions indicate that the dominant mesonic content arises from di-pion dynamics. With the experimentally determined pion-baryon-baryon coupling constants and ranges as input, the model predicts a g_{ρNN} that agrees with the meson-exchange-potential results. On the other hand, it predicts a smaller f_{ρNΔ} and much softer form factors. Implications of the findings on the use of phenomenological coupling constants in nuclear reaction studies are discussed.

Comparative Responses to Self-Dealing Transactions: The United States and the Philippines
Creators: name: Roman III, Antonino B.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 1997

description: Section 23 of the Corporation Code of the Philippines (hereinafter “Corporation Code’ or “Code”) states: Unless otherwise provided in this Code, the corporate powers of all corporations formed under this Code shall be exercised, all business conducted, and all property of such corporations controlled and held by the board of directors. But the board’s exercise of corporate powers is not unlimited. Directors and officers should, collectively and individually, have the interest of the corporation they serve paramount in mind. For them. the fundamental question is always: will the transaction serve the best interests of the corporation? Essentially subjective, this question can be a difficult one to resolve. Thus, when directors and officers fail to optimize for their corporation or even honestly err, they remain immune from liability because of the business judgment rule. This rule sustains corporate transactions and immunizes management from liability where the transaction is within the powers of the corporation (intra vires) and the authority of management, and involves the exercise of due care and compliance with applicable fiduciary duties.

$S$ wave hidden charm - hidden strangeness production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation
Creators: name: Voloshin, M. B.

description: It is suggested that the recently observed enhancement of the relative yield in $e^+e^-$ annihilation of states with hidden charm and hidden strangeness above 4.43\,GeV is associated with the $S$ wave production of the charmed strange meson pairs $D_{s0}(2317) \bar D_s^* + {\rm c.c.}$ and $D_{s1}^*(2460) \bar D_s+ {\rm c.c.}$. This mechanism implies a pattern of breaking of the Heavy Quark Spin Symmetry (HQSS) that can be tested in the final channels such as $η_c(1S) ϕ$, $h_c(1P) η$, $h_c(1P) η' $ produced in the same energy range.

New Probes for Extended Gauge Structures at HERA

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1992
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Doncheski and Hewett have recently shown that the ratio of neutral current to charged current cross sections, $R={σ_{NC}}/{σ_{CC}}$, can provide a more sensitive probe for the existence of heavy leptoquarks at HERA than the usual proceedure which makes use of neutral current asymmetries. The apparent reason for this is that the Standard Model expectations for {\it both} of these cross sections are modified by the existence of such particles in a semi-coherent manner. In this paper we apply this technique to extended electroweak models whose spectrum contains both a $W'$ and a $Z'$. We find that measurements of $R$ can, for some models, substantially increase the HERA search range for new gauge bosons beyond that which can be probed using the more conventional asymmetries.
