Miller, Joel Steven | Formation of a zwitterionic donor-acceptor compound based on N,N,N',N'-tetramethly-p-phenylenediamine and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoperfluoro-p-quinodimethane | The reaction of the donor N,N,N',N'- tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) with the acceptor 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoperfluoro-p-quinodimethane (TCNQF4) has led to the isolation of a novel type of zwitterionic donor-acceptor compound whose structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography. | Ccrystals; Single bond | 1988 |

DeTar, Carleton | High-precision lattice QCD confronts experiment | The recently developed Symanzik-improved staggered-quark discretization allows unquenched lattice-QCD simulations with much smaller (and more realistic) quark masses than previously possible. To test this formalism, we compare experiment with a variety of nonperturbative calculations in QCD draw... | Staggered quarks | 2004-01 |

Mattis, Daniel C. | Tricritical point in random-field Ising model | The numerical investigation of the random-field Ising model by Houghton, Khurana, and Seco1 has revealed a number of interesting features concerning the three-dimensional Ising model in a random external field Bt. Earlier, Aharony2 had already found that even in a mean-field approximation the b... | Random external field; Tricritical points; Gaussian distribution | 1985 |

Olivera, Baldomero M. | ?O-Conotoxins inhibit NaV channels by interfering with their voltage sensors in domain-2 | The ?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 |

Thomas, Kirk R.; Capecchi, Mario R. | Maintenance of functional equivalence during paralogous Hox gene evolution. | Biological diversity is driven mainly by gene duplication followed by mutation and selection. This divergence in either regulatory or protein-coding sequences can result in quite different biological functions for even closely related genes. This concept is exemplified by the mammalian Hox gene comp... | Alleles; Animals; Cervical Vertebrae; Embryo; Genetic Complementation Test; Homeodomain Proteins; Homozygote; Mice | 2000-02-10 |

Gondolo, Paolo | Cosmic ray positron excess and neutralino dark matter | Using a new instrument, the HEAT Collaboration has confirmed the excess of cosmic ray positrons that they first detected in 1994. We explore the possibility that this excess is due to the annihilation of neutralino dark matter in the galactic halo. We confirm that neutralino annihilation can produ... | Neutralinos; Supersymmetric models; Positron flux; Annihilations | 2002-02 |

Bohs, Lynn A. | Phylogeny and biogeography of the Canarian Solanum vespertilio and S. lidii (Solanaceae) | The endemic and rare Solanum vespertilio and S. lidii from the Canary Islands are notable in being andromonoecious, self compatible, highly heterandrous (with short >reward= anthers and one very long >pollination= anther), and bearing strongly zygomorphic corollas. Solanum vespertilio flowers are a... | Solanum vespertilio; Solanum lidii; Leptostemonum; tnT-F region; granule-bound starch synthase gene; GBSSI; Andromonoecy; Hererandry; Enantiostyly | 2006 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Personal view of gene targeting | Gene targeting provides the means for creating strains of mice with mutations in virtually any gene.1 First, the desired mutation is introduced into a cloned copy of the chosen gene by standard recombinant DNA technology. The mutation is then transferred to the genome of a pluripotent mouse embryo-d... | | 1995 |

DeTar, Carleton | Hadronic deformation energy. I. Quark-antiquark separation | The MIT bag model for hadrons is treated in the static cavity approximation in three dimensions with a definite quark number.

Voth, Gregory Alan | Multiscale coarse-graining of the protein energy landscape | A variety of coarse-grained (CG) models exists for simulation of proteins. An outstanding problem is the construction of a CG model with physically accurate conformational energetics rivaling all-atom force fields. In the present work, atomistic simulations of peptide folding and aggregation equilib... | | 2010-06-24 |

Coley, Phyllis D. | Benefits and costs of defense in a neotropical shrub | Benefits and costs are central to optimality theories of plant defense. Benefit is the gain in fitness to reducing herbivory and cost is the loss in fitness to committing resources to defense. We evaluate the benefits and costs of defense in a neotropical shrub, Psychotria horizontalis.

Rogachev, Andrey | Enhancing superconductivity: magnetic impurities and their quenching by magnetic fields | Magnetic fields and magnetic impurities are each known to suppress superconductivity. However, as the field quenches (i.e. polarizes) the impurities, rich consequences, including field-enhanced superconductivity, can emerge when both effects are present. For the case of superconducting wires and th... | Thermal phase slippage; Coulomb blockade | 2006-09-01 |
