Quantum Interference in Macroscopic Crystals of Nonmetallic<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:msub><mml:mi>Bi</mml:mi><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:msub><mml:msub><mml:mi>Se</mml:mi><mml:mn>3</mml:mn></mml:msub></mml:math> (2009)

Photoemission experiments have shown that ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Se}}_{3}$ is a topological insulator. By controlled doping, we have obtained crystals of ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Se}}_{3}$ with nonmetallic conduction. At low temperatures, we uncover a novel type of magnetofingerprint signal which involves the spin degrees of freedom. Given the mm-sized crystals, the observed amplitude is $200--500\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}$ larger than expected from universal conductance fluctuations. The results point to very long phase-breaking lengths in an unusual conductance channel in these nonmetallic samples. We discuss the nature of the in-gap conducting states and their relation to the topological surface states.
The Contribution of Lead-Contaminated House Dust and Residential Soil to Children's Blood Lead Levels (1998)

In 1992, the U.S. Congress passed the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, which requires the promulgation of health-based dust lead and soil lead standards for residential dwellings to prevent undue lead exposure in children. Unfortunately, the levels of lead in house dust and soil that are associated with elevated blood lead levels among U.S. children remain poorly defined. This pooled analysis was done to estimate the contributions of lead-contaminated house dust and soil to children's blood lead levels. The results of this pooled analysis, the most comprehensive existing epidemiologic analysis of childhood lead exposure, confirm that lead-contaminated house dust is the major source of lead exposure for children. These analyses further demonstrate that a strong relationship between interior dust lead loading and children's blood lead levels persists at dust lead levels considerably below the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's current postabatement standards and the Environmental Protection Agency's guidance levels. Finally, these analyses demonstrate that a child's age, race, mouthing behaviors, and study-site specific factors influence the predicted blood lead level at a given level of exposure. These data can be used to estimate the potential health impact of alternative health-based lead standards for residential sources of lead exposure.
Effect of polymer ablation on temperature decay of thermal plasmas using induction thermal plasma irradiation technique (2008)

Polymer ablation phenomenon by thermal plasmas was fundamentally investigated using the inductively cou-pled thermal plasma irradiation technique. It is greatly important to understand interactions between a thermal plasma and polymer materials, for example, for design of low voltage and high voltage circuit breakers. In the present experiment, the Ar induction thermal plasma was directly irradiated to different five kinds of polymer solid bulks. Spectroscopic observation was carried out to measure C2 spectra, and the C2 vibrational-rotational temperatures were estimated in different polymer ab-lated vapors. In addition, the measured mass loss and power loss due to ablation were compared among the different five polymer materials. Results showed that the polymethylene needed the highest power loss for ablation although there is little difference in the vibra-tional temperatures near the polymer surface among the five polymer materials. 1.
Fluid dynamics for physicists (1996)

It is over three hundred and fifty years since Torricelli discovered the law obeyed by fountains, yet fluid dynamics remains an active and important branch of physics. This book provides an accessible and comprehensive account of the subject, emphasising throughout the fundamental physical principles, and stressing the connections with other branches of physics. Beginning with a gentle introduction, the book goes on to cover Bernouilli's theorem, compressible flow, potential flow, surface waves, viscosity, vorticity dynamics, thermal convection and instabilities, turbulence, non-Newtonian fluids and the propagation and attenuation of sound in gases. Undergraduate or graduate students in physics or engineering who are taking courses in fluid dynamics will find this book invaluable, but it will also be of great interest to anyone who wants to find out more about this fascinating subject.
Blocking Moving Window algorithm: Conditioning multiple‐point simulations to hydrogeological data (2010)

Connectivity constraints and measurements of state variables contain valuable information on aquifer architecture. Multiple‐point (MP) geostatistics allow one to simulate aquifer architectures, presenting a predefined degree of global connectivity. In this context, connectivity data are often disregarded. The conditioning to state variables is usually carried out by minimizing a suitable objective function (i.e., solving an inverse problem). However, the discontinuous nature of lithofacies distributions and of the corresponding objective function discourages the use of traditional sensitivity‐based inversion techniques. This work presents the Blocking Moving Window algorithm (BMW), aimed at overcoming these limitations by conditioning MP simulations to hydrogeological data such as connectivity and heads. The BMW evolves iteratively until convergence: (1) MP simulation of lithofacies from geological/geophysical data and connectivity constraints, where only a random portion of the domain is simulated at every iteration (i.e., the blocking moving window, whose size is user‐defined); (2) population of hydraulic properties at the intrafacies; (3) simulation of state variables; and (4) acceptance or rejection of the MP simulation depending on the quality of the fit of measured state variables. The outcome is a stack of MP simulations that (1) resemble a prior geological model depicted by a training image, (2) honor lithological data and connectivity constraints, (3) correlate with geophysical data, and (4) fit available measurements of state variables well. We analyze the performance of the algorithm on a 2‐D synthetic example. Results show that (1) the size of the blocking moving window controls the behavior of the BMW, (2) conditioning to state variable data enhances dramatically the initial simulation (which accounts for geological/geophysical data only), and (3) connectivity constraints speed up the convergence but do not enhance the stack if the number of iterations is large.
A large-scale overexpression screen in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> identifies previously uncharacterized cell cycle genes (2001)

We have undertaken an extensive screen to identify Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes whose products are involved in cell cycle progression. We report the identification of 113 genes, including 19 hypothetical ORFs, which confer arrest or delay in specific compartments of the cell cycle when overexpressed. The collection of genes identified by this screen overlaps with those identified in loss-of-function cdc screens but also includes genes whose products have not previously been implicated in cell cycle control. Through analysis of strains lacking these hypothetical ORFs, we have identified a variety of new CDC and checkpoint genes.
Evaluation of E1-Mutant Adenoviruses as Conditionally Replicating Agents for Cancer Therapy (2001)

Volume 2, Number 5 (2000), in the article “Evaluation of E1-Mutant Adenoviruses as Conditionally Replicating Agents for Cancer Therapy,” by John A. Howe, G. William Demers, Duane E. Johnson, Sarah E. A. Neugebauer, Stuart T. Perry, Mei Ting Vaillancourt, and Barbara Faha, pages 485–495 (doi:10.1006/mthe.2000.0206): As a result of a communication error, several corrections made by the authors were not incorporated into the final article. On page 485, right column, lines 7–11 should read “pRb and p300 regulate the activity of E2F, a transcription factor that coordinates expression of the adenovirus E2 promoter, and the expression of cellular genes required for cell cycle progression (11),” instead of “pRb and p300 regulate the activity of E2F, an expression of the adenovirus E2 promoter and transcription factors that coordinates the expression of cellular genes required for cell cycle progression (11).” On page 486, left column, lines 44 and 45 should read “… and is therefore defective for S-phase progression,” instead of “… and is therefore effective for S-phase progression.” On page 493, right column, lines 34 and 35 should read “… demonstrate little selectivity in vitro, an E1B55K mutant,” instead of “… demonstrate little selectivity in vitro E1B55K mutant.” On page 494, there should be a footnote b to Table 2 that reads “ED50 estimated.”
Reliable Routing of Event Notifications over P2P Overlay Routing Substrate in Event Based Middleware (2007)

Event broker networks (EBN) are a scalable incarnation of the publish subscribe paradigm for building asynchronous systems. These take the form of overlays of broker nodes and several routing schemes exist that deliver events from publishers to subscribers efficiently on different overlay structures. However quality of service based routing schemes are rare and our work addresses this gap. Specifically we look into the prospect of routing events based on reliability requirements of subscribers for an event type being delivered via the EBN. In this paper, we formally define reliability and propose a multiplicative model which calculates reliability of the P2P overlay routing substrate and an algorithm based on this model, to deliver event notifications to the client. We employ a technique called 'pruning' by which we restrict flooding the entire overlay routing substrate, when finding a reliable path. The complexity analysis of our algorithm shows that it finds a reliable path with a lower message complexity, as compared to the flooding approach. Our algorithm also determines a path with higher reliability than the path established by Hermes. We present initial simulation results, using the Hermes middleware simulator.
[Determination of plasma concentrations of antioxidants, antibodies against oxidized LDL, and homocysteine in a population sample from Liège]. (2000)

A large number of epidemiological and clinical studies suggest that oxidative stress plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular diseases. In this way, following reference values in plasmatic antioxidants have been determined in a group of 123 blood donors (94 males, 29 females; age: 21-64 years) living in the surroundings of Liege, Belgium: vitamin A (1.5-3.62 mmol/l), vitamin C (3.68-75.21 mmol/l), vitamin E (16.98-46.46 mmol/l), ratio vitamin E/cholesterol (3.92-8.32 mmol/mmol), selenium (0.66-1.26 mmol/l), sulphydryl proteins (216-556 mmol/l), uric acid (174-477 mmol/l), superoxide dismutase (542-852 IU/g hemoglobine), glutathion peroxidase (39.55-91.83 IU/g hemoglobine). Only a few number of subjects were found with values corresponding to high risk of deficiency in antioxidants although low values in vitamin C (< 11.35 mmol/l) and in selenium (< 0.75 mmol/l) were respectively observed in 5.69 and 10.5% of our subjects. Autoantibodies against oxidized LDL, as marker of oxidative stress, and homocysteine, as a risk factor of atherosclerosis involved in the development of oxidative stress, have also been investigated. Approximatively 40% of the population presented values higher than the superior limit mean value (20.3% > 650 IU/l in autoantibodies and 19.5% > 15.2 mmol/l in homocysteine) that are, however, not correlated with age or low levels in antioxidants. The effect of smoking (25% of the population) contributed to significantly decrease vitamin C, selenium and glutathion peroxidase concentrations by 31.9 and 13% when compared to nonsmokers. Intake of 1 to 4 fruits per day resulted in a significant increase of 56.9% in vitamin C when compared to nonconsumers (26.8% of the population). In contrast, homocysteine concentrations were significantly decreased by 21.4% in fruits consumers. Thank to the development of methods allowing the routine dosage of all these parameters, general practitioners can now easily establish the oxidative stress status of their patients and, as fonction of getting patterns, detect populations at risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.
User-centric service provisioning for IMS (2009)

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a converged framework for delivering voice, video and data communication services to mobile and fixed users. The present operator-centric IMS model, which assume a single operator for the access network, IMS core and application servers, restricts if and how users can access services beyond the IMS core network. The present IMS model, by limiting the subscribers' choice might be rejected by many end users. User-centric service provisioning should establish the users' control and thus commence the customer interest for IMS. In this paper, we study the problems that a user-centric IMS architecture should address, and broaden the scope of our previously designed, third-party service enabled IMS model [21] by showing its use in user-centric service provisioning. Third-party offered service subscription and session setup procedures are explained with two use cases. The Users' profile management and privacy endurance, possible terminal implications are also discussed in the context of a user-centric IMS model.
Design of a quasi-optical mode conversion system with variable output beam size (2000)

The quasi-optical system consisting of a quasi-optical antenna and two parabolic mirrors can convert the TE03 mode output (f = 301 GHz) of the Gyrotron FU IV into a well collimated, linearly polarized beam. This system offers the possibility of tuning the size of the beam produced from 5 mm up to 24 mm by rotating and moving the two parabolic mirrors.
선구조화된 도시 발전 가능성- 도시 고유의 논리에 대한 이론적 고찰 및 유럽 사례 연구 (2009)

이 논문은 도시들 간의 차이를 무시하지 않고 그 차이들을 생산적으로 고려하는 도시 이론을 발전시키고자 한다. 이를 위해 마티나 뢰브는 각 도시들은 자신들의 발전 기회들을 미리 구조짓는 고유한 논리(Eigenlogik)를 갖고 있다는 논제를 제시한다. 도시들이 전형적인 정치가들을 생산해내고 전형적인 홍보체계와 공적 공간 체계를 보여주듯이, 그것들[도시들]은 또한 고유한 공간 배치방식을 발전시킨다. 이러한 논제를 설명하면서 저자는 젠더 이미지를 통해 국가적 문제가 도시로 이전했음을 보여준다. 이 논문에서 묘사된 도시들뿐만 아니라 독일 전체를 통해서 행해지고 있는 일상적 생활을 통해 알 수 있듯이 베를린은 이제 한 세기 이상에 걸쳐 기본구조로서의 분할을 재생산해오고 있다. 이러한 구조는 베를린은 국제적인 메트로폴리스로 위치지우기에 아주 적합한지만 도시와의 동일화를 어렵게 만든다. 반대로 뮌헨은 전통에 뿌리박고 있으며, 따라서 독일을 더 잘 대표하는 도시라고 주장한다. 그러므로 다음과 같은 실존적 문제가 도시들 속에서 체험되며 체화된다. 국가란 무엇인가? 국제적 중심들의 그물망에 사로잡혀 있는 불편하고, 빠르며, 냉정한 것인가? 아니면 편안하고 조용하며, 지역적이고 전통적인가?

De novo designed peptides for biological applications (2011)

In recent years our ability to design and assemble peptide-based materials and objects de novo (i.e. from first principles) has improved considerably. This brings us to a point where the resulting assemblies are quite sophisticated and amenable to engineering in new functions. Whilst such systems could be used in a variety of ways, biological applications are of particular interest because of the demand for biocompatible, readily produced systems with potential as drug-delivery agents, components of biosensors and scaffolds for 3D cell and tissue culture. This tutorial review describes the building blocks (or tectons) that are being used in peptide assembly, highlights a range of materials and objects that have been produced, notably hydrogels and virus-like particles, and introduces a number of potential applications for the designs.
Characterization of a Protein Complex Containing Spliceosomal Proteins SAPs 49, 130, 145, and 155 (1999)

SF3b is a U2 snRNP-associated protein complex essential for spliceosome assembly. Although evidence that SF3b contains the spliceosomal proteins SAPs 49, 130, 145, and 155 has accumulated, a protein-mediated association between all of these proteins has yet to be directly demonstrated. Here we report the isolation of a cDNA encoding SAP 130, which completes the cloning of the putative SF3b complex proteins. Using antibodies to SAP 130 and other putative SF3b components, we showed that SAPs 130, 145, and 155 are present in a protein complex in nuclear extracts and that these proteins associate with one another in purified U2 snRNP. Moreover, SAPs 155 and 130 interact with each other (directly or indirectly) within this complex, and SAPs 49 and 145 are known to interact directly with each other. Thus, together with prior work, our studies indicate that SAPs 49, 130, 145, and 155 are indeed components of SF3b. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae homologs of SAPs 49 and 145 are encoded by essential genes. We show here that the S. cerevisiae homologs of SAPs 130 and 155 (scSAP 130/RSE1 and scSAP 155, respectively) are also essential. Recently, the SF3b proteins were found in purified U12 snRNP, which functionally substitutes for U2 snRNP in the minor spliceosome. This high level of conservation, together with the prior observation that the SF3b proteins interact with pre-mRNA very close to the branch site, suggest that the SF3b complex plays a critical role near or at the spliceosome catalytic core.
Deterministic clock gating for microprocessor power reduction (2003)

With the scaling of technology and the need for higher performance and more functionality, power dissipation is becoming a major bottleneck for microprocessor designs. Pipeline balancing (PLB), a previous technique, is essentially a methodology to clock-gate unused components whenever a program's instruction-level parallelism is predicted to be low. However, no nonpredictive methodologies are available in the literature for efficient clock gating. This paper introduces deterministic clock gating (DCG) based on the key observation that for many of the stages in a modern pipeline, a circuit block's usage in a specific cycle in the near future is deterministically known a few cycles ahead of time. Our experiments show an average of 19.9% reduction in processor power with virtually no performance loss for an 8-issue, out-of-order superscalar processor by applying DCG to execution units, pipeline latches, D-Cache wordline decoders, and result bus drivers. In contrast, PLB achieves 9.9% average power savings at 2.9% performance loss.
C/EBPε Is a Myeloid-specific Activator of Cytokine, Chemokine, and Macrophage-Colony-stimulating Factor Receptor Genes (1998)

C/EBPepsilon is a member of the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein family of basic region/leucine zipper transcriptional activators. The C/EBPepsilon protein is highly conserved between rodents and humans, and its domain structure is very similar to C/EBPalpha. In mice C/EBPepsilon mRNA is only detected in hematopoietic tissues, including embryonic liver and adult bone marrow and spleen. Within the hematopoietic system, C/EBPepsilon is expressed primarily in myeloid cells, including promyelocytes, myelomonocytes, and their differentiated progeny. To identify potential functions of C/EBPepsilon, cell lines over-expressing the C/EBPepsilon protein were generated in the P388 lymphoblastic cell line. In contrast to the parental cell line, C/EBPepsilon-expressing cell lines displayed lipopolysaccharide-inducible expression of the interleukin-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) genes as well as elevated basal expression of the MIP-1alpha and MIP-1beta chemokine genes. In the EML-C1 hematopoietic stem cell line, C/EBPepsilon mRNA levels increased as the cells progressed along the myeloid lineage, just preceding activation of the gene encoding the receptor for macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSFR). M-CSFR expression was stimulated in C/EBPepsilon-expressing P388 cell lines, when compared with either the parental P388 cells or P388 cell lines expressing either C/EBPalpha or C/EBPbeta. These results suggest that C/EBPepsilon may be an important regulator of differentiation of a subset of myeloid cell types and may also participate in the regulation of cytokine gene expression in mature cells.
Synthesis of discrete and dispersible hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles with tailored shell thickness for controlled drug release (2012)

By employing poly (tert-butylacrylate) (PTBA) nanospheres as the dissolvable core templates, we develop a new method to synthesize hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSN). Both the PTBA core and the structure-directing surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), can be easily and synchronously removed through solvent extraction in ethanol, which ensures the complete structure and ideal dispersibility of the products compared with the previous template synthesis that often needs calcination to remove the templates. Given that hollow core diameter and shell thickness are the key properties of HMSN, the hollow core diameter and shell thickness can be tailored precisely. In addition, as novel inorganic nanomaterials with a tuned structure, HMSN show notable biocompatibility and efficient doxorubicin (DOX) loading. In in vitro tests, the release rate of DOX-loaded HMSN exhibit a surprising shell-thickness-dependent and a pH responsive drug release character, suggesting that HMSN are a very promising drug delivery system for shell-thickness-controlled drug release. The results of intracellular tracking and cytotoxicity assays further demonstrate the potential and efficiency of HMSN as a drug delivery system.
