Dynamics of extended spinning masses in a gravitational field
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We develop a first-order approximation method for the influence of spin on the motion of extended spinning test masses in a gravitational field. This approach is illustrated for approximately circular equatorial motion in ...
Autoimmunization of Ewes Against Pregnancy-associated Glycoproteins Does Not Interfere with the Establishment and Maintenance of Pregnancy
(Animal, 2009)
very low immunoreactivity toward PAGs, had measurable PAG by Day 22.961.3, and their PAG serum profiles throughout pregnancy did not differ from the controls. Those exhibiting moderate to high anti-PAG immunoreactivity (n515), had significantly lower...
Magnetic ordering in the spinel compound Li[Mn2-xLix]O4(x=0,0.04)
(American Institute of Physics, 2009)
The two B-site ions Mn3+ and Mn4+ in the stoichiometric spinel structure LiMn2O4 form a complex, columnar ordered pattern below the charge-ordering transition at room temperature. On further cooling to below 66 K, the system develops long...
Astrometric Effects of Secular Aberration
(arXiv, 2005)
One of the main endeavors of fundamental astrometry is to establish a practical realization of an inertial reference frame anchored to celestial objects whose positions are defined in the barycentric coordinates of the ...
Motional Coherence in Fluid Phospholipid Membranes
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We report a high energy-resolution neutron backscattering study, combined with in situ diffraction, to investigate slow molecular motions on nanosecond time scales in the fluid phase of phospholipid bilayers of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3...
Through the last 40 years with the Alumnus
(University of Missouri. Alumni Association, 1962)
"The fifty-year review of the Alumnus continues. Previous articles covered the first year and the first decade. This article begins with the magazine's eleventh volume--September 1922"--Page 19
Streaking [revisited]
(MU Alumni Association, University of Missouri, 1999)
Alumni recall national exposure 25 years later.
GmBZL3 acts as a major BR signaling regulator through crosstalk with multiple pathways in Glycine max
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2019)
unclear. Results: In this study, we first characterized GmBZL3 in soybean from gene expression patterns, conserved domains in coding sequences, and genomic replication times of four GmBZL orthologous. The results indicated that GmBZL3 might play conserved...
The interface between the stellar wind and interstellar medium around R Cassiopeiae revealed by far-infrared imaging
(arXiv, 2009)
The circumstellar dust shells of intermediate initial-mass (about 1 to 8 solar masses) evolved stars are generated by copious mass loss during the asymptotic giant branch phase. The density structure of their circumstellar ...
Maxwell's equations in Minkowski's world: their premetric generalization and the electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor
(Wiley-VCH, 2008)
In December 1907, Minkowski expressed the Maxwell equations in the very beautiful and compact 4-dimensional form: lor f = −s, lor F∗ = 0. Here 'lor', an abbreviation of Lorentz, represents the 4-dimensional differential ...
HOPE for the Pell? Institutional Effects in the Intersection of Merit-Based and Need-Based Aid
(Southern Economic Journal, 2006)
Prior empirical evidence finds that general enrollment effects of merit-aid programs such as the Georgia Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally (HOPE) scholarship are large and significant, while the effects of need-based ...
Collective intersubband transitions in quantum wells: A comparative density-functional study
(American Physical Society, 1998)
We use linearized time-dependent (current) density-functional theory to study collective transitions between the two lowest subbands in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs quantum wells. We focus on two particular systems, for both of which ...
Perceptions of Genetically Modified and Organic Foods and Processes
(AgBioForum, 2006)
Both organic production and the use of biotechnology have increased dramatically over the past decade. This study contributes to existing work on consumer acceptance of these practices and the resulting products through ...
Planarity of para Hexaphenyl
(American Physical Society, 1999)
We present experimental and theoretical findings on the geometry of polycrystalline para hexaphenyl via Raman scattering. The planarity of the molecule is affected by hydrostatic pressure and temperature. Our studies ...
From Polytheism to Christianity in the temples of Cyprus
(2002)
Over his career Eugene Lane has contributed much to our understanding of the religions of the late classical world, and in particular to clarifying the evolution of Christianity within the context of the Roman empire. The ...
An electric charge has no screw sense—a comment on the twistfree formulation of electrodynamics by da Rocha & Rodrigues
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010)
Da Rocha and Rodigues (RR) claim (i) that in classical electrodynamics in vector calculus the distinction between polar and axial vectors and in exterior calculus between twisted and untwisted forms is inappropriate and ...
Food values, personality traits, and attitudes towards genetically modified food in Norway and the United States
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, 2023)
We explored the effects of personality traits and subjective beliefs on willingness to pay (WTP) to avoid genetically modified (GM) foods using a random effects interval regression model. The personality traits were measured ...
VLT / Infrared Integral Field Spectrometer Observations of Molecular Hydrogen Lines in the Knots in the Planetary Nebula NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula)
(2008)
Knots are commonly found in nearby planetary nebulae (PNe) and star forming regions. Within PNe, knots are often found to be associated with the brightest parts of the nebulae and understanding the physics involved in knots ...
Direct visualization of the E. coli Sec translocase engaging precursor proteins in lipid bilayers
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2019)
with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine triphosphate, and the SecA monomer with the transition state analog ADP-AlF3. Conformations of translocases exhibited precursor-dependent differences on the AFM imaging time scale. The data, acquired under near...
