From images obtained by the too deep to propagate to the near surface. A similar MESSENGER spacecraft during its first and second mechanism of formation was suggested for Rima Hy- flyby of Mercury, we have identified numerous pit ginus on the Moon [10]. Calculations of the volatile craters on the floors of impact craters.

  • The Life and Death of Professor Alexander P. Borodin: Surgeon, Chemist, and Great Musician
    Original communications The life and death of Professor Alexander P. Borodin: Surgeon, chemist, and great musician Igor E. Konstantinov, MD, Charlotte, N.C. From the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Carolinas Heart Institute, Charlotte, N.C. Music is one of the most effective and most beautiful means of communication between peoples. However characteristical- ly national the music may be, it will penetrate to the hearts of all receptive listeners regardless of outlook, provided that it has real beauty.1 SEVERAL EMINENT COMPOSERS HAVE flirted with the art of medicine. Hector Berlioz studied medicine in Paris.2,3 Franz von Suppe attended medical school for 1 year before settling down to the more serious work of composing frothy operettas.2 On the other hand, many physicians became more or less proficient in music.4 Perhaps the most promi- nent of them was Theodor Billroth, who became a pianist of high standing.5-7 His lifelong friendship with the famous composer Johannes Brahms, who dedicated his String Quartet, opus 51, to Billroth, is well known.6,7 The two Opus 51 quartets in C minor and A minor have come to be known by musically inclined surgeons as the Billroth I and II.6 However, life is such that very often one thing must be sacrificed in favor of another. For instance, Billroth once invited Brahms to listen to an ama- teur orchestra of physicians. After a few minutes, Brahms stood up and rushed away saying, “No, no, no! I would rather give the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra to operate on me!” Professor Alexander Borodin combined the roles of medical doctor, chemist, and composer of major rank.8-17 It was my good fortune to study at the Military Fig.

  • IAU Mercurian Nomenclature
    Appendix 1 IAU Mercurian Nomenclature 1. IAU Nomenclature Rules Since its inception in Brussels in 1919 [1], the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has gradually developed a planetary nomenclature system that has evolved from a purely classically based system into a quite so- phisticated attempt to broaden the cultural base of the names approved for planetary bodies and surface features. At present, name selection is guided by 11 rules (quoted verbatim below) in addition to conventions decided upon by nomenclature task groups for individual Solar System bodies. The general rules are as follows1: 1. Nomenclature is a tool and the first consideration should be to make it simple, clear, and unambiguous. 2. In general, official names will not be given to features whose longest di- mensions are less than 100 metres, although exceptions may be made for smaller features having exceptional scientific interest. 3. The number of names chosen for each body should be kept to a minimum. Features should be named only when they have special scientific inter- est, and when the naming of such features is useful to the scientific and cartographic communities at large. 4. Duplication of the same surface feature name on two or more bodies, and of the same name for satellites and minor planets, is discouraged. Duplications may be allowed when names are especially appropriate and the chances for confusion are very small. 5. Individual names chosen for each body should be expressed in the language of origin. Transliteration for various alphabets should be given, but there will be no translation from one language to another.
