- Bound nuclear systems with two units of strangeness are still poorly known despite their importance for many strong interaction phenomena. Stored antiprotons beams in the GeV range represent an unparalleled factory for various hyperon-antihyperon pairs. Their outstanding large production probability in antiproton collisions will open the floodgates for a series of new studies of systems which contain two or even more units of strangeness at the PANDA experiment at FAIR. For the first time, high resolution gamma-spectroscopy of doubly strange Lambda Lambda-hypernuclei will be performed, thus complementing measurements of ground state decays of Lambda Lambda-hypernuclei at J-PARC or possible decays of particle unstable hypernuclei in heavy ion reactions. High resolution spectroscopy of multistrange Xi(-) -atoms will be feasible and even the production of Omega(-) -atoms will be within reach. The latter might open the door to the vertical bar S vertical bar = 3 world in strangeness nuclear physics, by the study of the hadronic Omega(-) -nucleus interaction. For the first time it will be possible to study the behavior of Xi(+) in nuclear systems under well controlled conditions.

- In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, we aim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental physics. Given the very broad range of topics that might be relevant to LISA,we present here a sample of what we view as particularly promising fundamental physics directions. We organize these directions through a "science-first" approach that allows us to classify how LISA data can inform theoretical physics in a variety of areas. For each of these theoretical physics classes, we identify the sources that are currently expected to provide the principal contribution to our knowledge, and the areas that need further development. The classification presented here should not be thought of as cast in stone, but rather as a fluid framework that is amenable to change with the flow of new insights in theoretical physics.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) has the potential to reveal wonders about the fundamental theory of nature at play in the extreme gravity regime, where the gravitational interaction is both strong and dynamical. In this white paper, the Fundamental Physics Working Group of the LISA Consortium summarizes the current topics in fundamental physics where LISA observations of gravitational waves can be expected to provide key input. We provide the briefest of reviews to then delineate avenues for future research directions and to discuss connections between this working group, other working groups and the consortium work package teams. These connections must be developed for LISA to live up to its science potential in these areas.

Respective effects of end-expiratory and end-inspiratory pressures on alveolar recruitment in acute lung injury

- Objective. A low tidal volume can induce alveolar derecruitment in patients with acute lung injury. This study was undertaken to evaluate whether this resulted mainly from the decrease in tidal volume per se or from the reduction in end-inspiratory plateau pressure and whether there is any benefit in raising the level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) while plateau pressure is kept constant. Design: Prospective crossover study. Setting: Medical intensive care unit of a university teaching hospital. Patients: Fifteen adult patients ventilated for acute lung injury (PaO2/FIO2, 158 +/- 34 mm Hg; lung injury score, 2.7 +/- 0.6). Interventions: Three combinations were tested: PEEP at the lower inflection point with 6 mL/kg tidal volume, PEEP at the lower inflection point with 10 mL/kg tidal volume, and high PEEP with tidal volume at 6 mL/kg, keeping the plateau pressure similar to the preceding condition. Measurements and Main Results: Pressure-volume curves at zero PEEP and at set PEEP were recorded, and recruitment was calculated as the volume difference between both curves for pressures ranging from 15 to 30 cm H2O. Arterial blood gases were measured for all patients. For a similar PEEP at the lower inflection point (10 +/- 3 cm H2O), tidal volume reduction (10 to 6 mL/kg) led to a significant derecruitment. A low tidal volume (6 mL/kg) with high PEEP (14 +/- 3 cm H2O), however, induced a significantly greater recruitment and a higher PaO2 than the two other strategies. Conclusion. At a given plateau pressure (i.e., similar end-inspiratory distension), lowering tidal volume and increasing PEEP increase recruitment and PaO2.
