Pseudo limits, bi -adjoints, and pseudo algebras: Categorical foundations of conformal field theory.
(2005)
In this paper we develop categorical foundations needed for a rigorous approach to the definition of conformal field theory outlined by Graeme Segal. We discuss pseudo algebras over theories and 2-theories, their pseudo ...
Ventral pallidal neurons code incentive motivation: amplification by mesolimbic sensitization and amphetamine
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2005-11)
Neurons in ventral pallidum fire to reward and its predictive cues. We tested mesolimbic activation effects on neural reward coding. Rats learned that a Pavlovian conditioned stimulus (CS+1 tone) predicted a second conditioned ...
Nucleus accumbens corticotropin-releasing factor increases cue-triggered motivation for sucrose reward: paradoxical positive incentive effects in stress?
(2006-04-13)
Abstract
Background
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is typically considered to mediate aversive aspects of stress, fear and anxiety. However, CRF release in the brain is ...
Axisymmetric slosh frequencies of a liquid mass in a circular cylinder
(The American Institute of Physics, 2003-12)
Spectral eigenvalue methods along with some lower-dimensional techniques are used to determine the natural frequencies of a liquid slug in a circular tube. The contact lines are either pinned or governed by a slip coefficient ...
Exploring the Public Understanding of Basic Genetic Concepts
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; National Society of Genetic Counselors, Inc. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-08)
It is predicted that the rapid acquisition of new genetic knowledge and related applications during the next decade will have significant implications for virtually all members of society. Currently, most people get exposed ...
Raman spectral signatures of mouse mammary tissue and associated lymph nodes: normal, tumor and mastitis
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-02)
Raman spectroscopy involves the interaction of light with the molecular vibrations and therefore can provide information about molecular structure, tissue composition and changes in its environment. We explored whether ...
Room temperature ferromagnetism in spin-coated anatase- and rutile-Ti0.95Fe0.05O2 films
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2005-02-02)
Thin films of Ti1−xFexO2 (x = 0 and 0.05) have been prepared on sapphire substrates by the spin-on technique starting from metal–organic precursors. When heat treated in air at 550 and 700 °C respectively, these films ...
How to build nanoblocks using DNA scaffolds
(2008)
"In recent years there have been a number of proposals to utilize the specificity of DNA-based interactions for potential applications in nanoscience. One interesting direction is the self-assembly of micro- and nanoparticle ...
Dynamics of particles with key-lock; interactions
(2008)
"The dynamics of particles interacting by key-lock binding of attached biomolecules are studied theoretically. Examples of such systems include DNA-functionalized colloids as well as nanoparticles grafted with antibodies ...
Raman spectroscopy can differentiate malignant tumors from normal breast tissue and detect early neoplastic changes in a mouse model
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-03)
Raman spectroscopy shows potential in differentiating tumors from normal tissue. We used Raman spectroscopy with near-infrared light excitation to study normal breast tissue and tumors from 11 mice injected with a cancer ...
