Traps And Cages For Universal Sers Detection
In this tutorial review, we provide an overview of the recent research toward surface functionalization of plasmonic nanoparticles for the generation of advanced optical sensors that make possible the analysis of various moieties by means of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Such moieties include atomic ions, l...

Crystal-Phase Quantum Wires: One-Dimensional Heterostructures with Atomically Flat Interfaces
In semiconductor quantum-wire heterostructures, interface roughness leads to exciton localization and to a radiative decay rate much smaller than that expected for structures with flat interfaces. Here, we uncover the electronic and optical properties of the one-dimensional extended defects that form at the intersectio...

The Dirichlet process mixture model and more general mixtures based on discrete random probability measures have been shown to be flexible and accurate models for density estimation and clustering. The goal of this paper is to illustrate the use of normalized random measures as mixing measures in nonparametric hierarch...

Comment on "Drosophila dosage compensation involves enhanced pol II recruitment to male X-linked promoters"
Conrad et al. (Reports, 10 August 2012, p. 742) reported that Drosophila dosage compensation might largely be due to increased recruitment of RNA polymerase II to promoters. A reassessment of the numerical operations revealed that the authors' calculations are severely confounded by an inappropriate numerical procedur...

New Bell inequalities for three-qubit pure states
We introduce a set of Bell inequalities for a three-qubit system. Each inequality within this set is violated by all generalized GHZ states. More entangled a generalized GHZ state is, more will be the violation. This establishes a relation between nonlocality and entanglement for this class of states. Certain inequalit...

Removing And Adding Edges For The Traveling Salesman Problem
We present a framework for approximating the metric TSP based on a novel use of matchings. Traditionally, matchings have been used to add edges to make a given graph Eulerian, whereas our approach also allows for the removal of certain edges leading to a decreased cost. For the TSP on graphic metrics (graph-TSP), we sh...

We investigate the stellar populations of Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) at z=5. 7 and 6. 6 in a 0. 65 deg^2 sky of the Subaru/XMM-Newton Deep Survey (SXDS) Field, using deep images taken with Subaru/Suprime-Cam, UKIRT/WFCAM, and Spitzer/IRAC. We produce stacked multiband images at each redshift from 165 (z=5. 7) and 91 (...

Pattern Formation of Charged Particles in an Electric Field
The application of an electric field to a suspension of charged particles can lead to the formation of patterns due to electrohydrodynamic instabilities which remain poorly understood. We elucidate this behavior by visualizing the dynamics of charged carbon black particles suspended in a nonpolar solvent in response to...

Advanced holographic optical neural stimulation for vision restoration and basic research
When natural sensory input is disrupted, as in outer-retinal degenerative diseases, artificial stimulation of surviving nerve cells offers a potential strategy for bypassing compromised neural circuits and substituting sensory perception. Current neuro-stimulation interfaces that use electrical currents from micro-elec...

Largely Distinct Networks Mediate Perceptually Relevant Auditory And Visual Speech Representations
Visual speech is an integral part of communication, but it remains unclear whether information carried by lip movements is represented in the same brain regions that mediate acoustic speech comprehension. Our ability to understand acoustic speech seems independent from that to understand visual speech, yet neuroimaging...

Photo-cross-linking and high-resolution mass spectrometry for assignment of RNA-binding sites in RNA-binding proteins
RNA-protein complexes play pivotal roles in many central biological processes. Although methods based on high-throughput sequencing have advanced our ability to identify the specific RNAs bound by a particular protein, there is a need for precise and systematic ways to identify RNA interaction sites on proteins. We hav...

Literature as a cognitive object; cognitive infrastructure and human cultural transmission
Interdisciplinary research between literary and art study and empirical disciplines such as linguistics and cognitive science lacks genuine reciprocity: scholars of literature and art have drawn extensively on linguistics and cognitive science, but literary and art-philosophical discourse has had little impact in these...

The impact of low-frequency and rare variants on lipid levels
Using a genome-wide screen of 9. 6 million genetic variants achieved through 1000 Genomes Project imputation in 62,166 samples, we identify association to lipid traits in 93 loci, including 79 previously identified loci with new lead SNPs and 10 new loci, 15 loci with a low-frequency lead SNP and 10 loci with a missens...

Spectacular oscillations in plant isoprene emission under transient conditions explain the enigmatic CO<inf>2</inf> response
Plant isoprene emissions respond to light and temperature similarly to photosynthesis, but CO2 dependencies of isoprene emission and photosynthesis are profoundly different, with photosynthesis increasing and isoprene emission decreasing with increasing CO2 concentration due to reasons not yet understood. We studied is...

The Vitality of Disease - Quality of Life in the Making
Epidemiological reports from around the world suggest that more people than ever before are living with (especially chronic) diseases. As a consequence, sustained efforts to reduce morbidity and mortality rates have been joined by systematised efforts to improve the lives – the quality of life – of those living with di...

Dilatancy-induced fluid pressure drop during dynamic rupture: Direct experimental evidence and consequences for earthquake dynamics
Fluid pressure and flow in the crust are key parameters controlling earthquake physics. Since earthquake slip is linked to spatio-temporal localisation of deformation, it is expected that the local fluid pressure around the fault plane could potentially impact the dynamic strength of the slipping fault zone. Coseismic ...

Neural control of human freeze-fight-flight
This study investigates the mechanistic bases of human freeze-fight-flight reactions. The ability to control our social behavior is essential for almost every social interaction. It frequently fails in challenging situations when people fall back on basic defensive „freeze-fight-flight‟ (FFF) reactions. It chronically ...

Population dynamics of normal human blood inferred from somatic mutations
Haematopoietic stem cells drive blood production, but their population size and lifetime dynamics have not been quantified directly in humans. Here we identified 129,582 spontaneous, genome-wide somatic mutations in 140 single-cell-derived haematopoietic stem and progenitor colonies from a healthy 59-year-old man and a...

Yeasts are valuable hosts for recombinant protein production, as these unicellular eukaryotes are easy to handle, grow rapidly to a high cell density on cost-effective defined media, often offer a high space-time yield, and are able to perform posttranslational modifications. However, a key difference between yeasts an...

New results on the Stackelberg–Nash exact control of linear parabolic equations
Abstract This paper is concerned with Stackelberg–Nashstrategies to control parabolic equations. We have one control, the leader, that is responsible for a null controllability property; additionally, we have a couple of controls, called the followers, that provides a Nash equilibrium for two cost functionals. This is ...

The sea surface temperature (SST) variability of the Bay of Biscay and adjacent regions (1854–2010) has been examined in relation to the evolution of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), a major climate mode. The AMO index explains ~25% of the interannual variability of the annual SST during the last 150 years,...
