The need to determine constituent elements in materials so as to meet various technological demands in many fields is of an extreme importance. This work is an attempt to establish the efficacy of using non-destructive neutron activation methods based on instrumental gamma-ray spectrometry for...

III-V semiconductors and their alloys are by no meanssimple and have some rather subtle properties There fore their increasing commercial exploitation has stimulated phenomenal growth in the research effort devoted to studying their defects and radiation effects. NMR spectroscopy has become...

OBJECTIVES: The general objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between number of languages spoken and performance on the clinical neuropsychological tests. The specific objective was to establish whether greater proficiency in English is related to better performance on the...

A study aimed at finding whether there are significant differences in the nutritional status of Zambian controls compared with AIDS and PGL patients was undertaken at the University Teaching Hospital, Lusaka and Saint Francis Hospital, Katete, respectively. ft total of 149 Zambians were examined...

The teenage period is between 12 and 19 years. Pregnancy in the teenager poses special social, psycological and medical risks both to the mother and her offsping. Because of the physical, physiological and emotional immaturity of the adolescent period, pregnant teenagers are prone to developing...

_ Let * be a root system in a £-dimensional real Euclidean space V with Weyl group W( £), and let W+{<f) denote its rotation subgroup. In [173 » the projective representations of the rotation subgroup W ( 9) have been determined from those of W( $) for each root system $. This is done by...

Saeed [11] has considered Schur multipliers of some of the finite abelian groups.The study of the schur multipliers of abelian groups is the first step in the studying of the projective representations of such groups. Our objective here is to determine the Inequivalent Irreducible projective...

A two-year prospective study of Flexor Tendon repair at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH), Lusaka is presented. A total of 20 cases were seen in this period, with a total of 71 tendon repairs. Results were graded using the white (1956) and Boyes (1947) criteria: 4 patients were graded as...

The rate of caesarean section has been increasing in the last fifty years. A previous caesarean section has also steadily become a leading indication to perform a caesarean section. With the realization that caesarean section has got its own risks, and the strain on medical costs, the strategy...
