1. Numerical simulation of N-vector spin models in a magnetic field
Three-dimensional N-vector spin models may define universality classes for such diverse phenomena as i) the superfluid transition in liquid helium (currently investigated in the micro-gravity environment of the Space Shuttle) and ii) the transition from hadronic matter to a quark-gluon plasma, studied in heavy-ion collisions at the laboratories of Brookhaven

2. Modelo de suspensão pela cauda e seu efeito em algumas propriedades mecânicas do osso do rato / Model of suspension for the tail and its effect in some mechanical properties of the bone of the rat
The maintenance of the normal metabolism of minerals in bone is a result of several factors including the mechanical demands that are applied to the bones by the muscle contractions and gravity force. The purpose of this investigation was to study a model of tail suspension of the rat thus simulating the skeletal alterations that may occur in a microgravity

3. Effects of artificial gravity during bed rest on bone metabolism in humans
We report results from a study designed to explore the utility of artificial gravity (AG) as a countermeasure to bone loss induced by microgravity simulation. After baseline testing, 15 male subjects underwent 21 days of 6° head-down bed rest to simulate the deconditioning associated with spaceflight. Eight of the subjects underwent 1 h of centrifugation (A
