From p-branes to fluxbranes and back [PDF]
, 2001 In this note we study aspects of the interplay between fluxbranes and p-branes. We describe how a fluxbrane can be physically realized as a limit of a brane-antibrane configuration, in a manner similar to the way a uniform electric field appears in ...

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents an innovative integration of structured democratic dialogue with a multi‐criteria evaluation step designed to strengthen participatory decision‐making for complex socio‐ecological challenges. Conducted virtually with Communities of Practice focused on multi‐species governance, the process combined systemic mapping of ...

P-branes, D-branes and M-branes
, 1997 We consider solutions to the string effective action corresponding to p-Branes, D-Branes and M-Branes and discuss some of their properties.

, 2006 In these lectures we start with a pedagogical introduction of the properties of open and closed superstrings and then, using the open/closed string duality, we construct the boundary state that provides the description of the maximally supersymmetric Dp ...

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.We conducted a grouping study on 52 adult musk deer to investigate whether group sex composition modulates aggressive behavior and stress response in captive musk deer. We found that the conflict interactions of all‐male groups were significantly more than those of mixed groups, and compared with the mixed groups, the conflict interactions of all‐male ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant–herbivore interactions are typically examined through plant defence and herbivore performance, yet individual herbivore behavioural mechanisms underlying these interactions are rarely considered alongside plant traits.

Insect Science, EarlyView.Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial

Strings, branes, and gravity duals of gauge theories [PDF]
, 2002 We study the correspondence between certain supersymmetric gauge theories and their dual supergravity descriptions. Using low-energy brane probes of the super-gravity geometries we find moduli spaces of vacua, as expected from considering the dual gauge ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Metagenomic sequencing was used to analyze fecal microbiota of captive male forest musk deer (FMD) from the Sichuan Institute of Musk Deer Breeding across ages and musk‐secreting periods. Gut microbiota was generally stable and dominated by Firmicutes, while age and musk secretion shaped microbial composition and function, with musk collection linked ...

B-type D-branes in hybrid models
SciPost PhysicsA hybrid model is a fibration of a Landau-Ginzburg orbifold over a geometric base. We study B-type D-branes in hybrid models. Imposing B-type supersymmetry on the boundary action, we show that D-branes are specified by matrix factorisations in the fibre ...
