Eukaryotic centromeres contain the kinetochore, which connects chromosomes to the spindle allowing segregation. During meiosis, centromeres are suppressed for inter-homolog crossover, as recombination in these regions can cause...
This paper introduces and analyzes an original class of Krylov subspace methods that provide an efficient alternative to many well-known conjugate-gradient-like (CG-like) Krylov solvers for square nonsymmetric linear systems...

Abstract: An organisation's sustainability performance is influenced by its capabilities (skills, resources and competences) which in turn affects the performance of its entire supply chain. However, recent research has not...
Plasma membrane tension regulates many key cellular processes. It is modulated by, and can modulate, membrane trafficking. However, the cellular pathway(s) involved in this interplay is poorly understood. Here we find that...
During the night of 01-02 September, 2009, seventeen distinct sprite events including 3 halos were observed above a storm in north-western Mediterranean Sea, with a video camera at Pic du Midi (42.93N; 0.14E; 2877 m). The...
Short-term hyperglycemia suppresses superior cervical ganglia neurotransmission. If this ganglionic dysfunction also occurs in the islet sympathetic pathway, sympathetically mediated glucagon responses could be impaired. Our...
This paper describes an AI that uses construction grammar (CG)—a means of knowledge representation for deep understanding of text. The proposed improvements aim at more versatility of the text form and meaning knowledge...

Cloud gaming (CG) has gradually gained popularity. By leveling shared computing resources on the cloud, CG technology allows those without expensive hardware to enjoy AAA games using a low-end device. However, the bandwidth...
Leishmania donovani is the responsible agent for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in the Indian subcontinent (ISC). The disease is lethal without treatment and causes 0.2 to 0.4 million cases each year. Recently, reports of VL in...
AbstractSymmetries are key properties of physical models and of experimental designs, but any proposed symmetry may or may not be realized in nature. In this paper, we introduce a practical and...
Considering the cascade decay $D\to c C \to c b B \to c b a A$ in which
$D,C,B,A$ are massive particles and $c,b,a$ are massless particles, we
determine for the first time the shape of the distribution of the invariant
mass of...
We introduce a computational framework that is able to describe general many-body coarse-grained (CG) interactions of molecules and use it to model the free energy surface of molecular liquids as a cluster expansion in terms of...
The HIV-1 genome contains RNA sequences and structures that control many aspects of viral replication including, but not limited to transcription, splicing, nuclear export, translation, packaging and reverse transcription....
It is expected that hadron collider measurements of the Higgs boson mass
using the decay h -> W^+W^-, followed by the leptonic decay of each W-boson,
will be performed by fitting the shape of a distribution which is sensitive...
We consider the application of endpoint techniques to the problem of mass
determination for new particles produced at a hadron collider, where these
particles decay to an invisible particle of unknown mass and one or...
Can the Large Hadron Collider explain the masses and mixings of the known
fermions? A promising possibility is that these masses and mixings are
determined by flavor symmetries that also govern new particles that will appear
at...
Background: Despite almost all babies being breastfed initially, the rates of exclusive breastfeeding rate at six months is only 30% in China. Improving professionals' knowledge and practical skill is a key government strategy...
A coarse-grained (CG) model for atactic polystyrene is presented and studied via classical molecular dynamics simulations. The interactions between the CG segments are described by Mie potentials, with parameters obtained from a...
The morphological disparity of species within major clades shows a variety of trajectory patterns through evolutionary time. However, there is a significant tendency for groups to reach their maximum disparity relatively early...

We introduce a variable useful for measuring masses of particles pair
produced at hadron colliders, where each particle decays to one particle that
is directly observable and another particle whose existence can only be
inferred...
