The Effects of Encounters on Planetary Systems in Stellar Clusters

Extrasolar planets are found to be on orbits very different from those of the planets in the solar system. Gas-giant planets have been found on orbits tighter than that of the planet Mercury, often with very high eccentricities. These orbits are surprising; models of planet formation suggest that gas giants should be found on circular orbits with similar size to those of solar-system gas giants.

Anxiety and depression in cancer patients' spouses.

The spouse has been identified as a primary source of support for patients in coping with cancer. Therefore, attention must be given to problems faced by the spouses. In this study, 120 spouses were asked to fill in the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and a questionnaire containing 51 items. A response rate of 83% was obtained.

Systematics of polyploid Dactylorhiza (Orchidaceae) - genetic diversity, phylogeography and evolution

This thesis examines genetic variation in allotetraploids of the Dactylorhiza incarnata/maculata polyploid complex in different parts of Europe. The molecular markers used were AFLPs, allozymes, ITS, nuclear microsatellites and plastid DNA markers. The results showed that the Alps and Greece have served as refugia for the genus during Pleistocene glaciations. Immigration routes of D. majalis ssp.

Connecting Social Science and Information Technology Through an Interface-Centric Framework of Analysis

The gathering pace of IT innovation has, or ought to have had notable methodological repercussions for the social-science community (and beyond). Where yesterday the researcher could unhurriedly unlock the social-scientific significance of a chosen medium, secure in the knowledge that his or her work would have bearing for many years, by now there is every reason to confront a fear that the prodde
