Carbon Monoxide Protects against Ventilator-induced Lung Injury via PPAR-? and Inhibition of Egr-1  

UK PubMed Central (United Kingdom)

Rationale: Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) leads to an unacceptably high mortality. In this regard, the antiinflammatory properties of inhaled carbon monoxide (CO) may provide...Full Text Available

UV renormalons in QCD and their phenomenological implications  

International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

I report on some recent work done in collaboration with E. de Rafael on the connection between ultraviolet renormalons in QCD and Nambu-Jona-Lasinio-like Lagrangians as its effective description at low energies. (orig.)

The quark strange star in the enlarged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The strange quark star is investigated within the enlarged SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The stable quark star can exist until a maximal configuration with {rho}{sub m}=3.1x10{sup 15} g cm{sup -3} with M{sub m}=1.61 M{sub circle} and R{sub m}=8.74 km is reached. Strange quarks appear for density above {rho}{sub c}=9.84 g cm{sup -3} for the quark star with radius R{sub c}=8.003 km and M{sub c}=0.77 M{sub circle}. A comparison of quark star properties obtained in the quark mean-field approach to a neutron star model constructed within the relativistic mean-field theory is presented. (author)

The quark strange star in the enlarged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Corrigendum. 2002 New J. Phys. 4 14  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The abstract contains a misprint in the value for the star central density, {rho}{sub s}, above which strange quarks appear. A factor of 10{sup 14} was omitted from the original version. Strange quarks appear for central densities {rho}{sub c} above {rho}{sub s}=9.85x10{sup 14} g cm{sup -3}. The abstract has also been rewritten to differentiate more clearly {rho}{sub c}, the general star central density, {rho}{sub m}, the maximal central density and {rho}{sub s} the minimal central density. It now reads as: The strange quark star is investigated within the enlarged SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The stable star can exist until a maximal configuration with central density {rho}{sub c}={rho}{sub m}=3.11x10{sup 15} g cm{sup -3} with M{sub m}=1.61 M circle and R{sub m}=8.74 km is reached. Strange quarks appear for densities {rho}{sub c} above {rho}{sub s}=9.85x10{sup 14} g cm{sup -3} for the quark star with radius R{sub c}=8.003 km and M{sub c}=0.77 M circle. A ...
