Identifying metabolites by integrating metabolome databases with mass spectrometry cheminformatics. [PDF]
Novel metabolites distinct from canonical pathways can be identified through the integration of three cheminformatics tools: BinVestigate, which queries the BinBase gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolome database to match unknowns with ...

Galaxy Gas Fractions at High-Redshift: The Tension between Observations and Cosmological Simulations
CO measurements of z~1-4 galaxies have found that their baryonic gas fractions are significantly higher than galaxies at z=0, with values ranging from 20-80 %. Here, we suggest that the gas fractions inferred from observations of star-forming galaxies at

Model Checking Probabilistic Pushdown Automata [PDF]
We consider the model checking problem for probabilistic pushdown automata (pPDA) and properties expressible in various probabilistic logics. We start with properties that can be formulated as instances of a generalized random walk problem. We prove that

A Dynamic Epistemic Framework for Conformant Planning
In this paper, we introduce a lightweight dynamic epistemic logical framework for automated planning under initial uncertainty. We reduce plan verification and conformant planning to model checking problems of our logic.

Counter Simulations via Higher Order Quantifier Elimination: a preliminary report [PDF]
Quite often, verification tasks for distributed systems are accomplished via counter abstractions. Such abstractions can sometimes be justified via simulations and bisimulations.

Tropically convex constraint satisfaction
A semilinear relation S is max-closed if it is preserved by taking the componentwise maximum. The constraint satisfaction problem for max-closed semilinear constraints is at least as hard as determining the winner in Mean Payoff Games, a notorious ...

An Algorithm for Probabilistic Alternating Simulation [PDF]
In probabilistic game structures, probabilistic alternating simulation (PA-simulation) relations preserve formulas defined in probabilistic alternating-time temporal logic with respect to the behaviour of a subset of players. We propose a partition based

Characterising Probabilistic Processes Logically
In this paper we work on (bi)simulation semantics of processes that exhibit both nondeterministic and probabilistic behaviour. We propose a probabilistic extension of the modal mu-calculus and show how to derive characteristic formulae for various ...

Coverage dependence of the 1-propanol adsorption on the Si(001) surface and fragmentation dynamics
The geometric, electronic, energetic, and dynamic properties of 1-propanol adsorbed on the Si(001)-2x1 surface are studied from first principles by use of a slab approach.

In situ measurements of tropical cloud properties in the West African Monsoon: upper tropospheric ice clouds, Mesoscale Convective System outflow, and subvisual cirrus [PDF]
In situ measurements of ice crystal size distributions in tropical upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UT/LS) clouds were performed during the SCOUT-AMMA campaign over West Africa in August 2006.
