26 Liu, FengMetal-to-semiconductor transition in squashed armchair carbon nanotubesWe investigate electronic transport properties of the squashed armchair carbon nanotubes, using tight-binding molecular dynamics and the Green's function method. We demonstrate a metal-to-semiconductor transition while squashing the nanotubes and a general mechanism for such a transition. It is the ...Squashed armchair; Carbon nanotubes; Metal-to-semiconductor transition; Electronic transport; Tight-binding molecular dynamics; Squashed nanotubes2003-04
27 Olson, Randall J.Comparison of thermal features associated with 2 phacoemulsification machinesPURPOSE: To determine the thermal characteristics of the Legacy Advantec and Sovereign WhiteStar phacoemulsification machines during different clinically relevant scenarios.

28 Ring, Terry ArthurRoom temperature co-precipitation synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles in a large pH window with different basesMagnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) represent the most promising materials in medical applications. To favor high-drug or enzyme loading on the nanoparticles, they are incorporated into mesoporous materials to form a hybrid support with the consequent reduction of magnetization saturation. The direct sy...2013-01-01
29 DeTar, CarletonResults for light pseudoscalars from three-flavor simulationsWe compute pseudoscalar meson masses and decay constants in partially quenched QCD with three dynamical flavors of improved staggered quarks. Fitting the lattice data to staggered chiral perturbation theory (SX_x001F_PT) forms and extrapolating in quark mass and lattice spacing, we find: frr = 129...Pseudoscalars; Decay constants; Staggered quarks2005-03

32 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineTransient spectroscopy of Frenkel and charge transfer excitons in α-sexithienyl filmsPhotoexcitations dynamics are investigated in a-sexithienyl nanocrystalline films using transient photomodulation in a spectral range from 0.4 to 2.5 eV and time domain from 200 fs to 50 ms. We identify intrachain and interchain excitations. The former are even parity excitons with ultrafast dynami...Transient spectroscopy; Excitons; Frenkel exciton; Charge transfer exciton; Transient photomodulation1997-10
33 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Effect of solvent on the magnetic properties of the high-temperature V[TCNE]x molecule-based magnetThe different magnetic behaviors of the V[TCNE]x (TCNE=tetracyanoethylene) magnet prepared via the reaction of TCNE and V(CO)6 in CH2Cl2 and the solvent-free chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of TCNE and V(CO)6 onto a glass substrate were determined. It was shown that the presence of noncoordinating C...Magnetization; Molecule2001
34 Miller, Jan D.Effect of ink types and printing processes on flotation deinkingExamination of ink types reveals that newsprint oil-based offset-cold and offset-heat inks contain substantial oil (45 to 60%) and resin (5 to 35%), water-based ink contains water (40%) and resin (polystyrene, 30%). These inks are liquids with densities around 1 g/cm3, having various viscosities...Toners; Inks; Photocopying; Laser printing; Flotation; Deinking; Recycling; Office waste; Hyrdophobicity1997

36 Jarrard, Richard D.Data report: high-resolution mineralogy for leg 199 based on reflectance spectroscopy and physical propertiesDuring Ocean Drilling Program Leg 199 in the equatorial Pacific, visible and near-infrared spectroscopy (VNIS) was used to measure the reflectance spectra (350?2500 nm) of 1343 sediment samples. Reflectance spectra were also measured for a suite of 60 samples of known mineralogy, thereby providing a...2004

38 Pershing, David W.Bench and pilot scale process evaluation of reburning for in-furnace NOx reductionThis paper describes a combined experimental and theoretical study which was undertaken to quantify the impact of fuel and process parameters on reburning effectiveness and provide the scaling information required for commercial application of reburning under highly varied industrial conditions.

39 Goller, FranzMotor control of crystallized song is modified by sensory feedbackSong production requires precisely coordinated activity in the respiratory and syringcal (vocal organ) muscles. Crystallized adult song is characterized by acoustic and motor stereotypy which does not require auditory feedback, suggesting it is represented by fixed central motor programs. To determ...Air injection; Auditory feedback; Pressure1997
40 Lawton, Kristy J.Motor neurons tune premotor activity in a vertebrate central pattern generatorCentral patterns generators (CPGs) are neural circuits that drive rhythmic motor output without sensory feedback. Vertebrate CPGs are generally believed to operate in a top-down manner in which premotor interneurons activate motor neurons that in turn drive muscles. In contrast, the frog (Xenopus la...CPG; feed back; synchrony; vocal; vocalization; Xenopus2017
41 Miller, Jan D.Thermogravimetric/Mass spectrometric (TG/MS) characterization of toner particles from photocopied wastepaper and the impact of these features on flotation deinkingFlotation deinking of photocopies from office waste is known to be much more difficult than the flotation deinking of newsprint. In this regard, research has been undertaken to better understand the phenomena which account for the poor efficiency in the flotation deinking of such office waste.

46 Regehr, JohnAugmented CPU reservations: towards predictable execution on general-purpose operating systemsOne problem with performing soft real-time computations on general-purpose operating systems is that these OSs may spend significant amounts of time in the kernel instead of performing work on behalf of the application that is nominally scheduled: the OS effectively steals time from the running appl...2001-01-01
47 Olivera, Baldomero M.Block of Shaker K+ channels by ĸ-conotoxin PVIIA is state dependentĸ-conotoxin PVIIA is the first conotoxin known to interact with voltage-gated potassium channels by inhibiting Shaker-mediated currents. We studied the mechanism of inhibition and concluded that PVIIA blocks the ion pore with a 1:1 stoichiometry and that binding to open or closed channels is very d...Conotoxins; k-conotoxin PVIIA; Potassium channel blockers; Shaker K+ channels1999
48 Olivera, Baldomero M.?O-Conotoxins inhibit NaV channels by interfering with their voltage sensors in domain-2The ?O-conotoxins MrVIA and MrVIB are 31-residue peptides from Conus marmoreus, belonging to the O-superfamily of conotoxins with three disulfide bridges. They have attracted attention because they are inhibitors of tetrodotoxin-insensitive voltage-gated sodium channels (NaV1.8) and could therefore ...2007
