Abstract:The globe and cornea are colonized by microorganisms and cannot be removed as sterile products. Antiseptic measures and storage of the cornea in medium containing antibiotics lead to an obvious reduction of the microbial flora. Unfortunately there is the possibility of secondary microbial contamination during the preparation. Large amounts of bacteria or resistant bacteria can ruin attempts to reduce the microbial flora. To validate the whole process of preparation we investigated the contamination of removed … Show more
“…In that case, corrections linear in the gauge coupling as in eq. (22) arise, and contribute towards asymptotic freedom in the gauge coupling, potentially impacting the phase structure in those models, [83].…”
Section: B Asymptotic Safety For U(1) Gauge Theoriesmentioning
We explore whether quantum gravity effects within the asymptotic safety
paradigm can provide a predictive ultraviolet completion for Abelian gauge
theories. We evaluate the effect of quantum gravity fluctuations on the running
couplings in the gauge sector and discover an asymptotically safe fixed point
of the Renormalization Group. In particular, if the strength of gravitational
interactions remains below a critical strength, the minimal gauge coupling
becomes asymptotically free. Further, we point out that a completely
asymptotically free dynamics for the gauge field is impossible to achieve, as
asymptotically safe quantum gravity necessarily induces nonvanishing
higher-order interactions for the gauge field in the ultraviolet.Comment: 6 pages plus references; 5 figures; version identical with published

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
