- Inclusive differential cross sections dsigma(pA)/dx(F) and dsigma(pA)/dp(t)(2) for the production of K-S(0), Lambda, and (&ULambda;) over bar particles are measured at HERA in proton-induced reactions on C, Al, Ti, and W targets. The incident beam energy is 920 GeV, corresponding to roots = 41.6 GeV in the proton-nucleon system. The ratios of differential cross sections dsigma(pA)(K-S(0))/dsigma(pA)(Lambda) and dsigma(pA)((&ULambda;) over bar)/dsigma(pA) (Lambda) are measured to be 6.2 +/- 0.5 and 0.66 +/- 0.07, respectively, for x(F) approximate to -0.06. No significant dependence upon the target material is observed. Within errors, the slopes of the transverse momentum distributions da,Ald t also show no significant dependence upon the target material. The dependence of the extrapolated total cross sections sigma(pA) on the atomic mass A of the target material is discussed, and the deduced cross sections per nucleon sigma(pN) are compared with results obtained at other energies.

Measurement of the b(b)over-bar production cross section in 920 GeV fixed-target proton-nucleus collisions

- Using the HERA-B detector, the b (b) over bar production cross section has been measured in 920 GeV proton collisions on carbon and titanium targets. The b (b) over bar production was tagged via inclusive bottom quark decays into J/psi by exploiting the longitudinal separation of J/psi --> l(+)l(-) decay vertices from the primary proton-nucleus interaction. Both e(+)e(-) and mu(+)mu(-) channels have been reconstructed and the combined analysis yields the cross section sigma(b (b) over bar) = 32(-12)(+14)(stat) (+6)(-7)(sys) nb/nucleon.

Local straightness : A contrast independent statistical edge measure for color and gray level images

- Most existing methods for edge detection rely on contrast dependent thresholds. We show that a local measurement defined by the ratio of the smallest to the largest eigenvalue of the second moment matrix of filter kernels, can be used to separate smooth, low curvature curves and straight lines from noise, independent of contrast, in both color and gray level images. This is done without applying a threshold to the gradient magnitude. The edge images are defined as zero crossings in the gradient direction. The covariance matrix can easily be computed for both gray level images and color images. Further we show the potentiality of such a measure by integrating it with the Hough transform to extract long straight lines in noisy color images. The method is shown to successfully extract consistent line features from color images of a scene, captured under drastically different lightening conditions.

Prognostic importance of the soluble plasminogen activator receptor, suPAR, in plasma from rectal cancer patients
- 2001

Ingår i: European Journal of Cancer. - 1879-0852. ; 37:4, s. 486-491

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Colorectal cancer is one of the most common tumour types with approximately one third of the tumours located within the rectum. Rectal cancer differs somewhat from colon cancer, e.g. regarding the method of operation and the use of preoperative radiotherapy due to a tendency for local tumour recurrence. Proteolytic enzymes have been identified as key molecules in tumour invasion and metastasis, and factors within the urokinase-plasminogen activation (uPA) system have been associated with prognosis in several tumour types, including colorectal cancer. Recently, methods have been developed to analyse the soluble fraction of the plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in blood samples. An association between elevated suPAR levels and poor prognosis has recently been demonstrated in colorectal cancer. We have measured suPAR levels in pretreatment plasma samples from 173 rectal cancer patients in order to confirm its prognostic strength in this clinical entity. suPAR levels were determined in ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) plasma by a kinetic enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and analysed with respect to sex, age, Dukes' stage, tumour differentiation grade and survival. In a univariate analysis, continuous suPAR plasma levels were associated with survival (P<0.001) with shorter survival among patients with high suPAR values. Patients with suPAR values within the upper quartile had significantly shorter survival (hazard ratio (HR) 2.2, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.3-43.7, P=0.002). In a multivariate Cox analysis, increasing suPAR values predicted shorter survival independent from Dukes' stage and tumour differentiation grade with an adjusted HR of 2.2 per ng/ml suPAR (95% CI 1.2-4.0, P=0.01). This study thus confirms that measurement of suPAR in preoperative plasma samples gives independent prognostic information in rectal cancer patients, higher values being associated with shorter survival.

Chemical characteristics and methane potentials of source-separated and pre-treated organic municipal solid waste

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A research project has investigated the biogas potential of pre-screened source-separated organic waste. Wastes from five Danish cities have been pre-treated by three methods: screw press; disc screen; and shredder and magnet. This paper outlines the sampling procedure used, the chemical composition of the wastes and the estimated methane potentials.
