Linking a mutation to survival in wild mice

Jeffrey David Jensen, Matthieu Foll, Susanne Petra Pfeifer, Stefan Jean Laurent

Adaptive evolution in new or changing environments can be difficult to predict because the functional connections between genotype, phenotype, and fitness are complex. Here, we make these explicit connections by combining field and laboratory experiments i ...

A monolithic process is developed for the fabrication of Si nanowires within thick Si substrates. A combination of anisotropic etch and sidewall passivation is utilized to protect and release Si lines during the subsequent deep etch. An etch depth of 10 mu ...

Connection between diphoton and triboson channels in new physics searches

Lesya Shchutska, Alexey Boyarsky, Kyrylo Bondarenko

Diphoton channel provides a clean signature in searches for new physics. In this paper, we discuss a connection between the diphoton channel ( γγ ) and triboson channels ( Zγγ , ZZγ , WWγ ) imposed by the SU(2)L×U(1)Y symmetry of the Standard Model (SM) in ...

Hutongs-Transformations: A Battle between memories

Anna Pagani

Basing the analysis on social studies, on the history of a nation and its urban landscape, as well as on the connection between anthropology and architecture, the main aim of this book is to partially unveil the different roles that memories have had and s ...

Optimal transport of closed differential forms for convex costs

Bernard Dacorogna, Olivier Kneuss

Let c : A(k-1) -> R+ be convex and Omega subset of R-n be a bounded domain. Let f(0) and f(1) be two closed k-forms on Omega satisfying appropriate boundary conditions. We discuss the minimization of integral(Omega) c (A) dx over a subset of (k - 1)-forms ...

Mixed Potentials for Planar Multilayered Structures Including Conductive Interfaces

Juan Ramon Mosig, Michael Mattes, Ioannis Koufogiannis

A complete and automatized strategy has been developed to derive the Vector and Scalar Potential Green’s Functions (GFs) of planar multilayered structures that include conductive sheets. The propagator matrix technique is enhanced to include conductive she ...

Method to optimize the communication parameters between an access point and at least one client device

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Ruben Merz

A method to optimize the communication on a channel between an access point and at least one client device, said channel being characterized by a center frequency and a bandwidth, comprises: establishing a connection on a first channel according to a first ...
