Transition probabilities in 134Pr: a test for chirality in nuclear systems.

Exited states in 134Pr were populated in the fusion-evaporation reaction 119Sn(19F,4n)134Pr. Recoil distance Doppler-shift and Doppler-shift attenuation measurements using the Euroball spectrometer, in conjunction with the inner Bismuth Germanate ball and the Cologne plunger, were performed at beam energies of 87 MeV and 83 MeV, respectively. Reduced transition probabilities in 134Pr are compared to the predictions of the two quasiparticle + triaxial rotor and interacting boson fermion-fermion models. The experimental results do not support the presence of static chirality in 134Pr underlying the importance of shape fluctuations. Only within a dynamical context the presence of intrinsic chirality in 134Pr can be supported.

[Treatment of large laparoceles. A simplified radical method and the use of intra-abdominal synthetic prostheses].

Having defined the terms of the problem of treating large incisional hernias with regard to the state of the patient and the anatomical conditions of the abdominal wall, the paper outlines the criteria for the execution of radical surgery which, while taking into account the numerous variables, simplify the overall surgical treatment. The efficacy of the prosthesis used, which ranges from a wide intra-abdominal polypropylene net, a well tolerated material, to the simplest plastic prosthesis for the muscle-aponeurotic wall, is confirmed by the excellent results achieved in the first difficult cases operated.
