This letter reports on a search for hypothetical heavy neutrinos, , and right-handed gauge bosons, , in events with high transverse momentum objects which include two reconstructed leptons and at least one hadronic jet. The results were obtained from data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.1 fb collected in proton-proton collisions at [Formula: see text] with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.

The top quark mass has been measured using the template method in the [Formula: see text] channel based on data recorded in 2011 with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The data were taken at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text] and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb.

A measurement of the top-antitop production charge asymmetry is presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.04 fb of collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events are selected with a single lepton (electron or muon), missing transverse momentum and at least four jets of which at least one jet is identified as coming from a -quark.

Most complexes retain their chemical and structural integrity when entrapped into liposomes, thermally sterilized under the FDA norms and stored for 3 months at 25 degrees C. All complex/liposome preparations consist mainly of small unilamellar vesicles (size less than 100 nm) together with a population of larger uni- or multilamellar vesicles (100 to 230 nm).
