Towards explicit description of the ramification filtration in the 2-dimensional case (2004)
Journal Article
Abrashkin, V. (2004). Towards explicit description of the ramification filtration in the 2-dimensional case. Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, 16(2), 293-333

The principal result of this paper is an explicit description of the structure of ramification subgroups of the Galois group of 2-dimensional local field modulo its subgroup of commutators of order 3. This result plays a clue role in the author's pro... Read More about Towards explicit description of the ramification filtration in the 2-dimensional case.

The right tool for the job? Modeling, spatial relationships, and styles of scientific practice in the UK foot and mouth crisis (2004)
Journal Article
Bickerstaff, K., & Simmons, P. (2004). The right tool for the job? Modeling, spatial relationships, and styles of scientific practice in the UK foot and mouth crisis. Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, 22(3), 393-412. https://doi.org/10.1068/d344t

In this paper we explore the expert controversy over the management of a major rural risk issue, the foot and mouth disease (FMD) outbreak that affected the United Kingdom in 2001, and in particular the role of predictive epidemiological modeling in...

Approximating the number of acyclic orientations for a class of sparse graphs (2004)
Journal Article
Bordewich, M. (2004). Approximating the number of acyclic orientations for a class of sparse graphs. Combinatorics, Probability and Computing, 13(1), 1-16. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0963548303005844

The Tutte polynomial $T(G;x,y)$ of a graph evaluates to many interesting combinatorial quantities at various points in the $(x,y)$ plane, including the number of spanning trees, number of forests, number of acyclic orientations, the reliability polyn...

Effect of axial strain cycling on the critical current density andn-value of ITER niobium-tin wires (2004)
Journal Article
Taylor, D., & Hampshire, D. (2004). Effect of axial strain cycling on the critical current density andn-value of ITER niobium-tin wires. Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications, 401(1-4), 40-46. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physc.2003.09.009

Measurements have been made of the effect of axial strain cycling on the critical current density and n-value of two ITER candidate niobium-tin wires (Europa Metalli-LMI (EM-LMI) and Vacuumschmelze). The wires were subjected to similar to1300 strain... Read More about Effect of axial strain cycling on the critical current density andn-value of ITER niobium-tin wires.

Experimental study on linear compressor cascade with three-dimensional blade oscillation (2004)
Journal Article
Yang, H., & He, L. (2004). Experimental study on linear compressor cascade with three-dimensional blade oscillation. Journal of Propulsion and Power, 20(1), 180-188

An experiment is carried out to enhance the understanding of three-dimensional blade aeroelastic mechanisms and to produce test data for validation of numerical methods. A compressor cascade test rig developed consists of seven prismatic controlled d... Read More about Experimental study on linear compressor cascade with three-dimensional blade oscillation.

Self, Agency and the Surgical Collective: detachment (2004)
Journal Article
Moreira, T. (2004). Self, Agency and the Surgical Collective: detachment. Sociology of Health & Illness, 26(1), 32-49. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-9566.2004.00377.x

In this article, I describe the socio-technical organisation of surgical rehabilitation. After having gone through surgical intervention, patients are implicated within various types of medical work aimed at adjusting their bodies to post-operative s...

Radiative processes, spectral states and variability of black-hole binaries (2004)
Journal Article
Zdziarski, A., & Gierlinski, M. (2004). Radiative processes, spectral states and variability of black-hole binaries. Progress of theoretical physics. Supplement, 155, 99-119

We review radiative processes responsible for X-ray emission in hard(low) and soft (high) spectral states of black-hole binaries. The main process in the hard state appears to be scattering of blackbody photons from a cold disk by thermal electrons i...

Historische Grundlagen des Rezeptor-Konzepts in der Pharmakologie * (2004)
Journal Article
Maehle, A. (2004). Historische Grundlagen des Rezeptor-Konzepts in der Pharmakologie *. Gesnerus, 61(1-2), 57-76

In present-day pharmacology, the existence of specific cell receptors, which can combine chemically with drugs, poisons, neurotransmitters and hormones, is often taken for granted. However, until the 1960s receptors were controversial hypothetical en... Read More about Historische Grundlagen des Rezeptor-Konzepts in der Pharmakologie *.

Mid-Holocene sea-level highstand along the Southeast Coast of China (2004)
Journal Article
Zong, Y. (2004). Mid-Holocene sea-level highstand along the Southeast Coast of China. Quaternary International, 117(1), 55-67. https://doi.org/10.1016/s1040-6182%2803%2900116-2

Various sea-level curves have been proposed for the coast of China in the past two decades. These sea-level curves indicate a complex history of Holocene sea level, and so the debate on whether or not a higher mid-Holocene sea-level highstand exists...
