General analysis of type I second-harmonic generation with elliptical Gaussian beams
One can enhance second-harmonic generation in angle-tuned crystals by focusing the fundamental to an elliptical waist in the crystal. We present a general analysis for type I phase-matched uniaxial and biaxial crystals that will find particular ...

The number of individuals alive in a branching process given only times of deaths
The study of many population growth models is complicated by only partial observation of the underlying stochastic process driving the model. For example, in an epidemic outbreak we might know when individuals show symptoms to a disease and are removed ...

Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

New results on multivariate phase-type distributions
Phase-type distributions are used for mathematical modelling within numerous scientific fields of both engineering and commercial interests, such as genetics, transport optimisation, and insurance mathematics.

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Acetylcholine Mediates Dynamic Switching Between Information Coding Schemes in Neuronal Networks
Rate coding and phase coding are the two major coding modes seen in the brain. For these two modes, network dynamics must either have a wide distribution of frequencies for rate coding, or a narrow one to achieve stability in phase dynamics for phase ...

On Phase-Type Distribution in Ruin Theory [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to serve as an introduction to the use of phase-type distributions and at the same time to outline their use in ruin theory. Phase-type distributions, a particular class of matrix-exponential distributions, have the important ...

Hydrodynamics and mass transfer in bubble column: Influence of liquid phase surface tension [PDF]
According to literature, few experiments are performed in organic solvents which are mostly used in commercial gas–liquid reactors. However, it is commonly accepted that data obtained in aqueous solution allow to predict the surface tension effects, and ...

Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Phase-Type Distributions and Majorization
Aldous and Shepp recently proved that the Erlang distribution of a given order is the least variable phase-type distribution of that order, in the sense of minimizing the coefficient of variation. Here we prove that it is also least variable in the sense of majorization.
