Study contradicts Galaxy theories new York Dwarf says a Suay that challenges astronomical theory vexing question where did Alt these galaxies go the Bounty of recent Small galaxies a is no to what i expected to find at All. Its quite a Shock a said Lennox Cowie of the University of Hawaii. A i done to think in be truly reconciled myself to the whole thing  Cowie and colleagues Esther he and Antoinette Songaila were to present their results in thursdays Issue of the journal nature. The finding a implies that the Galaxy population has. Evolved rapidly and if True will require a substantial revision of current ideas about Galaxy formation a Cedric Lacey of Oxford University s physics department wrote in a nature editorial. Explaining such findings is a really a Central Issue right now in the theory of How galaxies formed said George Lake professor of astronomy and physics at the University of Washington in Seattle. A a it a the Basic data of How galaxies Are forming and we done to really know How to match it up to theory a Lake said in a Telephone interview. The researchers studied 22 faint Blue galaxies the color indicating that the galaxies contained Many stars in the process of forming. Previous studies had found More faint Blue galaxies than scientists expected. By measuring infrared Light from the galaxies the re a id about half of a my one tenth the mass of the Milky Way  searchers found about _ Small each containing Only about one Hundredth a pm a a we v the galaxies were quite the Tow hot thing  co in of Fli University of Hawaii researchers also took advantage of the fact that Over vast distances Light from celestial objects takes so Long to reach Earth that the objects appear As they really were sons ago. In this Case the Dwarf galaxies were showing what they looked like relatively recently Only about 3 billion to 5 billion years ago Cowie said. The Puzzle is that nowadays the population density of Dwarf galaxies in the universe is thought to be about one tenth what the new study found for recent times Lacey wrote. A so where have they All gone Quot he asked. Cowie cites two possibilities. One is that the Small galaxies merged to become larger ones which then evolved into current galaxies. The other is that the Dwarf galaxies were destroyed or died out. Cowie said that since the Dwarf galaxies were busily forming stars Only a few billion years ago they would not have much time to die out or disappear by  backs policy to test some doctors Las vegas a the american medical association on wednesday adopted a policy advocating aids testing for physicians who perform certain invasive procedures and recommending peer supervision of doctors who Are infected. But the organization called mandatory testing a bad idea. The measures were approved by 424 members of the Ama House of delegates. The delegates make policy for the amass 289,000 members. The Federal centers for disease control has identified Only five cases of patients infected by a health care provider a All by a Florida dentist. The Ama delegates approved a policy for physicians doing a exposure prone procedures a described by Ama attorney Kirk Johnson As a a very narrow class of invasive  invasive procedures Are those in which the doctor s hands or instruments enter the patients body or touch mucous membranes. His can be transmitted through exchanges of blood or other body fluids. The cd recommended in july that All doctors and dentists be tested for his and that those found to be infected refrain from a exposure prone procedures except with the consent of the patient and outside experts
