Low-energy fission investigated in reactions of 750 AMeV 238U-ions with Pb and Be targets
Charge distributions of fragments from low energy nuclear fission are investigated in reactions of highly fissile238U projectiles at relativistic energies (750 A·MeV) with a heavy (Pb) and a light (Be) target. The fully stripped fission fragments are separated by the Fragment Separator (FRS). Their high kinetic energies in the laboratory system allow the identification of all atomic numbers by using Multiple-Sampling Ionization Chambers (MUSIC). The elemental distributions of fragments observed at larger magnetic rigidities than the238U projectiles show asymmetric break-up and odd-even effects. They indicate a low energy fission process, induced mainly by dissociation in the electro-magneti…
AB0210 Quality of Life Indexes in Patients with Very Early Rheumatoid Arthritis (VERA): A Two Center Subgroup Analysis from The Adapthera Cohort: Table 1.
Background The significance of early diagnosis and early therapy initiation in patients with RA is tremendous. ADAPTHERA is a state wide rheumatology network based in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. ADAPTHERA aims to improve RA prognosis and quality of patients` life by reducing the time-to-RA-diagnosis. While there have been a lot of studies regarding quality of life in patients with established RA 1,2 , adequate data concerning very early rheumatoid arthritis (VERA) (disease duration Objectives To study quality of life in VERA patients and to investigate its associations with various RA associated clinical and laboratory parameters. Methods In a two center subgroup analysis from the ADAPTH…
