RESUMO
The boundary integral equation (BIE) method ascertains explicit relations between localized surface phonon and plasmon polariton resonances and the eigenvalues of its associated electrostatic operator. We show that group-theoretical analysis of the Laplace equation can be used to calculate the full set of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the electrostatic operator for shapes and shells described by separable coordinate systems. These results not only unify and generalize many existing studies, but also offer us the opportunity to expand the study of phenomena such as cloaking by anomalous localized resonance. Hence, we calculate the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of elliptic and circular cylinders. We illustrate the benefits of using the BIE method to interpret recent experiments involving localized surface phonon polariton resonances and the size scaling of plasmon resonances in graphene nanodiscs. Finally, symmetry-based operator analysis can be extended from the electrostatic to the full-wave regime. Thus, bound states of light in the continuum can be studied for shapes beyond spherical configurations.
RESUMO
The case which we present is the most recent of a personal statistics on 10 cardiopericardiac plagues and the decision to be related separately was requested by some particularities with special points of view: a) anatomo-lesional, transfixiant plague with the lost of the top of the heart and the section of the left coronary artery, left diaphragmatic penetrating plague, left hepatic transfixiant plague, penetrating gastric plague. b) some aspects of surgery techniques. c) the evolution of acute septic complications (mediastinopleuroparietal suppuration) which has requested special care and 97 days of hospitalisation. d) healing, good evolution after 14 months from the accident.

The measurement of solar UV radiation is usually performed using physical devices like photodiodes or photomultipliers or with chemical substances (actinometry). The application of biological material such as microorganisms for this purpose has gained increasing importance in the last few years. The microorganisms may be dried and spread on a flat surface or they may be in aqueous suspensions contained in UV-transparent vessels. If the measurements are done on flat surfaces, the irradiance weighted by the action spectrum of the dried microorganism used is the result of the measurement. If aqueous suspensions of microorganisms are used, contained for instance in spherical vessels, the fluence weighted by the action spectrum of the microorganisms in the aqueous suspension is the result. A problem of this method of measurement can be that inside the vessel the distribution of UV radiation is usually not homogeneous, causing distributions of fluences among the irradiated microorganisms, which may result in variation of the results depending on the mixing characteristics of the suspension during irradiation.

The influence of SDS upon the molecular properties of proflavine (3,6-diaminoacridine), acridine yellow (2,7-dimethyl-3,6-diaminoacridine) and methylene blue (3,7-bis-dimethylamino-phenothiazine) was studied comparatively to their properties in that of aqueous media. The absorption and emission spectra of the three dyes in SDS aqueous solution (1-100 mmol/l) were recorded. The spectroscopic data also allowed the evaluation of the critical micellization concentration (CMC), acidity constants in fundamental (pk(a)) and excited (pK(*)(a)) states, and lifetimes of excited singlet states.
RESUMO
Reflections from instruments in the surgical field involving the CO2 laser beam present a serious ocular hazard. In addition to the use of plastic or glass protective eyewear, this hazard can be minimized by utilizing anodized instruments and recognizing the specific distances at which various reflections are no longer hazardous depending upon certain variables, including laser output wattage, emergent beam lengths, and surface characteristics of the reflecting instruments.
