 | Myers, Chris J. | Verification of timed circuits with failure-directed abstractions | Abstract-This paper presents a method to address state explosion in timed-circuit verification by using abstraction directed by the failure model. This method allows us to decompose the verification problem into a set of subproblems, each of which proves that a specific failure condition does not oc... | 2006 | |

 | Anderson, Richard Bryan | What will become of us? looking into the crystal ball of serials work | Is it possible to predict the future of serials work? Not with perfect accuracy, of course - but to do so imperfectly is both possible and imperative.We need to be looking ahead and asking questions like these: What are the implications of the open access movement for serials staff? Will the informa... | 2006 | |

 | Kestle, John R. W. | Work hour restrictions: impact on neurosurgical resident training at the University of Utah | Resident work hour restrictions imposed by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education became effective on July 1, 2003. To evaluate the effect of these regulations on resident operative experience, we reviewed and compared the surgical experience of junior and senior neurosurgical res... | Neurosurgical resident training; Work hour restrictions | 2006 |

 | Wu, Yong-Shi | Algebraic solution for a two-level atom in radiation fields and the Freeman resonances | Using techniques of complex analysis in an algebraic approach, we solve the wave equation for a two-level atom interacting with a monochromatic light field exactly. A closed-form expression for the quasienergies is obtained, which shows that the Bloch-Siegert shift is always finite, regardless of ... | Bloch-Siegert shift; Freeman resonances; Quasienergies | 2006-02 |

 | Gondolo, Paolo | Annual modulation of dark matter in the presence of streams | In addition to a smooth component of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter in galaxies, there may be streams of material; the effects of WIMP streams on direct detection experiments is examined in this paper. The contribution to the count rate due to the stream cuts off at some char... | WIMP streams; Weakly interacting massive particles; Cutoff energy; Halo models; Sagittarius dwarf galaxy; Recoil energy; Sgr stream | 2006-08 |

 | Wu, Yong-Shi | Braid group, gauge invariance, and topological order | Topological order in two-dimensional systems is studied by combining the braid group formalism with a gauge invariance analysis. We show that flux insertions (or large gauge transformations) pertinent to the toroidal topology induce automorphisms of the braid group, giving rise to a unified algebrai... | Braid group; Topological order; Zero temperature; Two-dimensional systems | 2006-07 |

 | Varner, Michael W. | Cerebral vasculopathies masquerading as eclampsia. | Obstetricians know that preeclampsia-eclampsia is a syndrome and is a final common pathway for multiple causes. It is also possible that other conditions, not always directly related to pregnancy, can mimic preeclampsia-eclampsia. One such entity is cerebral vasculopathy, an entity characterized b... | Cerebrovascular Disorders; Eclampsia; Puerperal Disorders | 2006-02 |
