The hysteresis

loops of the Nd(2)Fe(14)B/alpha-Fe/Nd(2)Fe(14)B trilayers for various J(i) have been calculated. The calculated pinning field decreases when J(i) increases. It is found that, as L(s) increases, the coercivity mechanism changes from pinning to nucleation. The change of exchange coupling at the interface influences the soft layer thickness, at which the coercivity starts to deviate from pinning. The critical thickness of the soft phase, at which the behavior of the hysteresis loop changes from the single-phased one to the two-phased one, decreases as J(i) decreases, so that the “”rigid learn more composite magnet”" appears only when L(s) is very small for smaller J(i).

“We report the case of a 3-month-old boy with novel influenza A (H1N1) infection complicated by pericardial effusion. The patient was treated with pericardial drainage, oseltamivir, and ibuprofen and improved. Pericarditis and pericardial effusion have been occasionally associated with influenza A infections. To our knowledge, this is the first case of pericardial effusion reported during the current novel influenza A (H1N1) pandemic.”
“This work investigated in-plane MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) for the application

of spin torque transfer random access memory (STT-RAM). The MTJ in this work had an resistance area product (RA) = 4.3 Omega.mu m(2), tunneling Selleck BTSA1 magnetoresistance ratio similar to 135%, thermal stability factor Delta(H)=68 (by field https://www.selleckchem.com/products/s63845.html measurement), and Delta(I)=50 (by current measurement). The optimal writing energy was found to be 0.286 pJ per bit at 1.54 ns for antiparallel (AP) state to parallel (P) state switching, and 0.706 pJ per bit at 0.68 ns for P state to AP state switching. Ultra fast spin torque transfer (STT) switching was also observed in this sample at 580 ps (AP to P) and 560 ps (P to AP). As a result, 0.6-1.3 GHz was determined to be the optimal writing rate from writing energy consumption of view. These results show that in-plane MgO MTJs are still a viable candidate as the fast memory

cell for STT-RAM. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3556784]“
“Liver transplantation has undergone a rapid evolution from a high-risk experimental procedure to a mainstream therapy for thousands of patients with a wide range of hepatic diseases. Its increasing success has been accompanied by progressive imbalance between organ donor supply and the patients who might benefit. Where demand outstrips supply in transplantation, a system of organ allocation is inevitably required to make the wisest use of the available, but scarce, organs. Early attempts to rationally allocate donor livers were particularly hampered by lack of available and suitable data, leading to imperfect solutions that created or exacerbated inequities in the system.
