7 Gondolo, PaoloWanted! Nuclear data for dark matter astrophysicsAstronomical observations from small galaxies to the largest scales in the universe can be consistently explained by the simple idea of dark matter. The nature of dark matter is however still unknown. Empirically it cannot be any of the known particles, and many theories postulate it as a new elemen...2014-01-01
8 Bohs, Lynn A.Four-gene study of evolutionary relationships in Solanum section AcanthophoraThe "spiny solanums," Solanum subgenus Leptostemonum (Solanaceae), comprise a large lineage with over 350 species and include the cultivated eggplant, Solanum melongena. Despite the importance of this subgenus, phylogenetic relationships among these taxa are currently unclear.

9 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineRecombination kinetics in ?-Si:HMort et al.1 reinterpreted our data on the relaxation of photoinduced absorption (PA) in a-Si:H. 2 We want to show that the proposed interpretation contradicts one basic feature of the data while our original interpretation is in good agreement with experiment.Hydrogenated amorphous silicon; a-Si:H; Recombination kinetics; Photoinduced absorption; Decay; Relaxation1981
10 Kieda, David B.High statistics search for ultrahigh energy gamma-ray emission from Cygnus X-3 and Hercules X-1We have carried out a high statistics (2 X 10 9 events) search for ultrahigh energy g-ray emission from the x-ray binary sources Cygnus X-3 and Hercules X-1. Using data taken with the CASA-MIA detector over a five year period (1990-1995), we find no evidence for steady emission from either source. T...Cygnus X-3; Hercules X-1; Ultrahigh energy; X-rays1997
11 Clayton, Dale H.; Rogers, Alan R.Genetic analysis of lice supports direct contact between modern and archaic humansParasites can be used as unique markers to investigate host evolutionary history, independent of host data. Here we show that modern human head lice, Pediculus humanus, are composed of two ancient lineages, whose origin predates modern Homo sapiens by an order of magnitude (ca. 1.18 million years).Pediculus humanus; Head lice; Molecular phylogeny; Phthirus2004
12 Sokolsky, PierreHigh Resolution Fly's Eye - status and preliminary results on cosmic ray composition above 10^18 eVWe describe the current status of the High Resolution Fly's Eye detector. Event reconstruction and associated systematics for stereo reconstruction are discussed and recent preliminary results on the study of the composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays by the Xmax method are presented. These r...Ultra-high energy cosmic rays; Fluorescence; Stereo detection2002
13 Sokolsky, PierreTotal proton-proton cross section at s1/2=30 TeVWe have measured the proton-air inelastic cross section at s 1/2 = 30 TeV by observing the distribution of extensive-air-shower maxima as a function of atmospheric depth. This distribution has an exponential tail whose slope is λ = 72 ±9 g c m - 2 which implies that σ inel p-air = 530 ± 66 mb. U...1984-04
14 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Viscous behavior in a quasi-1D fractal cluster glassThe spin glass transition of a quasi-1D organic-based magnet ([MnTPP][TCNE]) is explored using both ac and dc measurements. A scaling analysis of the ac susceptibility shows a spin glass transition near 4 K, with a viscous decay of the thermoremanent magnetization recorded above 4 K.We propose an ex...Transition; Magnet; Magnetization2002
