151 Wu, Yong-ShiChiral bosonization and local Lorentz-invariant actions for chiral bosonsWe formulate a geometrical theory of self-dual scalar fields in two dimensions with a local Lorentz-invariant action. Path-integral quantization is used to derive chiral bosonization by demonstrating equivalence of correlation functions of currents and energy-momentum tensors in our theory with thos...Bosonization; String theory; Weyl fermions1988-06
152 DeTar, CarletonStatic hybrid quarkonium potential with improved staggered quarksWe are studying the effects of light dynamical quarks on the excitation energies of a flux tube between a static quark and antiquark. We report preliminary results of an analysis of the ground state potential and the ∑g′+ and Πu potentials. We have measured these potentials on closely matched...Quarkonium; Staggered quarks; Flux tube2003-05
153 Simpson, Jamesina J.An efficient stochastic approach to uncertainty quantification in 3-D FDTD magnetized cold plasmaAn efficient stochastic finite-difference time-domain (S-FDTD) method is developed to analyze electromagnetic field variability in three dimensional anisotropic magnetized plasma.

155 Smith, Grant D.Molecular dynamics of a 1,4-polybutadiene melt. Comparison of experiment and simulationWe have made detailed comparison of the local and chain dynamics of a melt of 1,4-polybutadiene (PBD) as determined from experiment and molecular dynamics simulation at 353 K. The PBD was found to have a random microstructure consisting of 40% cis, 50% trans, and 10% 1,2-vinyl units with a number-av...Polybutadiene melt; Molecular dynamics1999

157 Hawkes, KristenOvarian follicle loss in humans and mice: lessons from statistical model comparisonMenopause is triggered by the number of ovarian follicles falling below a threshold number and is irreversible because oogonial stem cells disappear after birth. Since it is the result of programmed disappearance of a limited store of follicles, menopause can be predicted using mathematical models b...Age; Follice; Mathematical; Model; Menopause; Ovary2010-01-01
158 Gerig, GuidoQuantitative tract-based white matter development from birth to age 2 yearsFew large-scale studies have been done to characterize the normal human brain white matter growth in the first years of life.

159 Gerig, GuidoSimulation of brain tumors in MR images for evaluation of segmentation efficacy.Obtaining validation data and comparison metrics for segmentation of magnetic resonance images (MRI) are difficult tasks due to the lack of reliable ground truth. This problem is even more evident for images presenting pathology, which can both alter tissue appearance through infiltration and cause ...Brain MRI; Segmentation validation; Tumor simulation; Simulation of tumor infiltration; Diffusion tensor imaging; Ground truth; Gold standard2009-01-01
160 Gerig, GuidoPrenatal isolated mild ventriculomegaly is associated with persistent ventricle enlargement at ages 1 and 2Background-Enlargement of the lateral ventricles is thought to originate from abnormal prenatal brain development and is associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. Fetal isolated mild ventriculomegaly (MVM) is associated with enlargement of lateral ventricle volumes in the neonatal period and dev...Magnetic resonance imaging; Ultrasound; Gray matter; White matter; Cognitive development2012-01-01

164 Mishchenko, EugeneSpin Hall edge spin polarization in a ballistic 2D electron systemUniversal properties of the spin Hall effect in ballistic 2D electron systems are addressed. The net spin polarization across the edge of the conductor is second order, ~λ2, in spin-orbit coupling constant independent of the form of the boundary potential, with the contributions of normal and evan...Spin- Hall effect2007-09
165 Gerig, GuidoDiffusion imaging quality control via entropy of principal direction distributionDiffusion MR imaging has received increasing attention in the neuroimaging community, as it yields new insights into the microstructural organization of white matter that are not available with conventional MRI techniques.

170 Mattis, Daniel C.Exact solution of a many-fermion system and its associated boson fieldLuttinger's exactly soluble model of a one-dimensional many-fermion system is discussed. We show that he did not solve his model properly because of the paradoxical fact that the density operator commutators [p(p), p(-p')], which always vanish for any finite number of particles, no longer vanish in ...Many-electron problem; Fermi surface; Boson field; Dirac sea1965
171 Carrier, David R.Electromyographic pattern of the gular pump in monitor lizardsGular pumping in monitor lizards is known to play an important role in lung ventilation, but its evolutionary origin has not yet been addressed. To determine whether the gular pump derives from the buccal pump of basal tetrapods or is a novel invention, we investigated the electromyographic activity...Electromyographic pattern; Gular pump; Varanus exanthematicus; Lung ventilation; Evolution2001
172 Ailion, David CharlesCommensurability and defect-induced phason gaps in incommensurate systemsThe phason energy gap has been observed to increase on going from the incommensurate to higher-order commensurate phases in the "devil's staircase" compound [N(CH3)4]2ZnCl4.

173 Chatterjee, Niladrish; Balasubramonian, Rajeev; Davis, Alan L.Rethinking DRAM design and organization for energy-constrained multicoresDRAM vendors have traditionally optimized for low cost and high performance, often making design decisions that incur energy penalties. For example, a single conventional DRAM access activates thousands of bitlines in many chips, to return a single cache line to the CPU. The other bits may be access...DRAM power consumption; Data-center power; Multicore memory; Trapeze Interactive Poster2010-03-15
174 Thomas, Kirk R.; Capecchi, Mario R.High-fidelity gene targeting in embryonic stem cells by using sequence replacement vectors.Mutations were targeted to the Hprt locus in murine embryonic stem cells by using sequence replacement vectors.
