measured with high precision, both in the cross sections and the small energy intervals, thus allowing meaningful fusion barrier distributions to be extracted. In this representation it is clearly seen that the excitation functions are not smooth and featureless; each is unique and is shown to depend on the details of the structure of the interacting nuclei. The effects of excitation of the collective single phonon states in ' Sm are evident.For the ' 0 projectile, the role of additional coupling to neutron stripping channels with positive Q values can be seen. As expected, the barrier distributions associated with ' Srn and ' W are dominated by deformation effects. However, the data appear to display sensitivity to additional couplings, even though they involve relatively weak inelastic and transfer channels.PACS number(s): 25.70.Jj

Background: Electronic medical record (EMR) systems have become widely used throughout the world to improve the quality of healthcare and the efficiency of hospital services. A bilingual medical lexicon of Chinese and English is needed to meet the demand for the multi-lingual and multi-national treatment. We make efforts to extract a bilingual lexicon from English and Chinese discharge summaries with a small seed lexicon. The lexical terms can be classified into two categories: single-word terms (SWTs) and multi-word terms (MWTs). For SWTs, we use a label propagation (LP; context-based) method to extract candidates of translation pairs. For MWTs, which are pervasive in the medical domain, we propose a term alignment method, which firstly obtains translation candidates for each component word of a Chinese MWT, and then generates their combinations, from which the system selects a set of plausible translation candidates. Results: We compare our LP method with a baseline method based on simple context-similarity. The LP based method outperforms the baseline with the accuracies: 4.44% Acc1, 24.44% Acc10, and 62.22% Acc100, where AccN means the top N accuracy. The accuracy of the LP method drops to 5.41% Acc10 and 8.11% Acc20 for MWTs. Our experiments show that the method based on term alignment improves the performance for MWTs to 16.22% Acc10 and 27.03% Acc20. Conclusions: We constructed a framework for building an English-Chinese term dictionary from discharge summaries in the two languages. Our experiments have shown that the LP-based method augmented with the term alignment method will contribute to reduction of manual work required to compile a bilingual sydictionary of clinical terms.

Frescission charged-particle multiplicities, following fusion of ^^^'i6'''''^0Er+^^Si, have been measured. The multipHcities at the lowest bombarding energies limit the statistical model level density parameters. More importantly, the a data restrict the time spent near equilibrium and suggest evaporation occurs predominantly from larger deformations.
