Are geometric morphometric analyses replicable? Evaluating landmark measurement error and its impact on extant and fossil Microtus classification. [PDF]
, 2020 Geometric morphometric analyses are frequently employed to quantify biological shape and shape variation. Despite the popularity of this technique, quantification of measurement error in geometric morphometric datasets and its impact on statistical ...

Color Confinement in Perturbation Theory from a Topological Model, [PDF]
, 1995 Color confinement by the mechanism of Kugo and Ojima can treat confinement of any quantized color carrying fields including dynamical quarks. However, the non-perturbative condition for this confinement has been known to be satisfied only in the pure ...

On the distinguishability of random quantum states [PDF]
, 2006 We develop two analytic lower bounds on the probability of success p of identifying a state picked from a known ensemble of pure states: a bound based on the pairwise inner products of the states, and a bound based on the eigenvalues of their Gram matrix.

Rheological properties of saliva substitutes containing mucin, carboxymethylcellulose or polyethylenoxide [PDF]
, 1984 Apparent viscosities at different shear rates were measured for 3 types of saliva substitutes: (a) mucin-containing saliva; (b) substitutes based upon carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and (c) solution of polyethylenoxide (PEO). The apparent viscosities were

Is the growth of the child of a smoking mother influenced by the father's prenatal exposure to tobacco? A hypothesis generating longitudinal study [PDF]
, 2014 OBJECTIVES: Transgenerational effects of different environmental exposures are of major interest, with rodent experiments focusing on epigenetic mechanisms. Previously, we have shown that if the study mother is a non-smoker, there is increased mean birth

Evolution of bacterial phosphoglycerate mutases: non-homologous isofunctional enzymes undergoing gene losses, gains and lateral transfers. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The glycolytic phosphoglycerate mutases exist as non-homologous isofunctional enzymes (NISE) having independent evolutionary origins and no similarity in primary sequence, 3D structure, or catalytic mechanism.

Terminal Velocity Maximization of Air-to-Air Missiles in Agile Turn Phase
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016 Terminal velocity maximization of air-to-air agile missiles during agile turn phase is studied. It is important to make sure that agile missiles have enough velocity after agile turn stage in order to impact the target.

A galaxy-halo model of large-scale structure [PDF]
, 2005 We present a new, galaxy-halo model of large-scale structure, in which the galaxies entering a given sample are the fundamental objects. Haloes attach to galaxies, in contrast to the standard halo model, in which galaxies attach to haloes.
