Tetrakis(diisopropyl amide) substituted norbornadiene and quadricyclane are highly barium selective ligands [PDF]
, 2012 Tetrakis(diisopropyl amide) substituted norbornadiene and quadricyclane derivatives were investigated for their extraction and transport capabilities with alkaline earth metal cations. Both amides exhibited a remarkably high preference of Ba2+ over any

Neutrino-less Double Beta Decay and Particle Physics
, 2011 We review the particle physics aspects of neutrino-less double beta decay. This process can be mediated by light massive Majorana neutrinos (standard interpretation) or by something else (non-standard interpretations).

Identification of optimum cable vibration absorbers using fixed-sized-inerter layouts [PDF]
, 2019 Cables are widely used in cable-stayed bridges and other civil engineering structures, but they often experience large amplitude vibrations due to their low inherent damping.

Skeletal muscle stem cells express anti-apoptotic ErbB receptors during activation from quiescence [PDF]
, 2007 To be effective for tissue repair, satellite cells (the stem cells of adult muscle) must survive the initial activation from quiescence. Using an in vitro model of satellite cell activation, we show that erbB1, erbB2 and erbB3, members of the EGF ...
