Connexin: a potential novel target for protecting the central nervous system?
Connexin subunits are proteins that form gap junction channels, and play an important role in communication between adjacent cells. This review article discusses the function of connexins/hemichannels/gap junctions under physiological conditions, and ...

Universal Superconductivity in FeTe and All‐Iron‐Based Ferromagnetic Superconductor Heterostructures
The first all‐iron‐based ferromagnetic superconductor heterostructures with high‐temperature superconductivity and strong ferromagnetism aredemonstrated. From this, it is discovered that FeTe becomes universallysuperconducting with a minute level of cationic impurities through doping ordiffusion from neighboring layers, suggesting its ground state can ...

Superiorization and Perturbation Resilience of Algorithms: A Continuously Updated Bibliography [PDF]
This document presents a (mostly) chronologically-ordered bibliography of scientific publications on the superiorization methodology and perturbation resilience of algorithms which is compiled and continuously updated by us at: http://math.haifa.ac.il/yair/bib-superiorization-censor.html. Since the beginnings of this topic we try to trace the work that

2D Covalent Moiré Superlattice from Fluorinating Twisted Bilayer Graphene
A novel class of moiré materials, termed covalent moiré superlattice is proposed, which can be synthesized by functionalizing moiré van der Waals materials. By fluorinating twisted bilayer graphene, the weak van der Waals interactions between twisted graphene layers are transformed into strong covalent bonds, making the moiré superlattice effects ...

Rigid equivalences of $5$-dimensional $2$-nondegenerate rigid real hypersurfaces $M^5 \subset \mathbb{C}^ 3$ of constant Levi rank $1$ [PDF]
We study the local equivalence problem for real-analytic ($\mathcal{C}^\omega$) hypersurfaces $M^5 \subset \mathbb{C}^3$ which, in coordinates $(z_1, z_2, w) \in \mathbb{C}^3$ with $w = u+i\, v$, are rigid: \[ u \,=\, F\big(z_1,z_2,\overline{z}_1,\overline{z}_2\big), \] with $F$ independent of $v$. Specifically, we study the group ${\sf Hol}_{\sf rigid}

Compensatory recombination phenomena of neurological functions in central dysphagia patients
We speculate that cortical reactions evoked by swallowing activity may be abnormal in patients with central infarction with dysphagia. The present study aimed to detect functional imaging features of cerebral cortex in central dysphagia patients by using

A memetic algorithm with adaptive hill climbing strategy for dynamic optimization problems [PDF]
Copyright @ Springer-Verlag 2008Dynamic optimization problems challenge traditional evolutionary algorithms seriously since they, once converged, cannot adapt quickly to environmental changes. This paper investigates the application of memetic algorithms,
