Neuronal Polarity [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2009
The assembly of functional neuronal networks in the developing animal relies on the polarization of neurons, i.e., the formation of a single axon and multiple dendrites. Breaking the symmetry of neurons depends on cytoskeletal rearrangements. In particular, axon specification requires local dynamic instability of actin and stabilization of microtubules.

Applications of biogeochemical models in different marine environments: a review

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Marine biogeochemical models are an effective tool for formulating hypothesis and gaining mechanistic understanding of how an ecosystem functions. This paper presents a comprehensive review of biogeochemical models and explores their applications in ...

Political polarization [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Failures of government policies often provoke opposite reactions from citizens; some call for a reversal of the policy, whereas others favor its continuation in stronger form. We offer an explanation of such polarization, based on a natural bimodality of preferences in political and economic contexts and consistent with Bayesian rationality.

Personal submersibles offer novel ecological research access to Antarctic waters: an example, with observations of the rarely encountered scyphozoan Stygiomedusa gigantea

open access: yesPolar Research, 2023
Underwater biological surveys have been conducted around the Antarctic continent for several decades, and our knowledge of the species present in the shallow waters (

The polarization properties of a tilted polarizer

open access: yesOptics Express, 2013
Polarizers are key components in optical science and technology. Thus, understanding the action of a polarizer beyond oversimplifying approximations is crucial. In this work, we study the interaction of a polarizing interface with an obliquely incident wave experimentally.

Two-dimensional chromatography on silica gel-loaded paper for the microanalysis of polar lipids

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1966
Two-dimensional chromatography on commercially available silica gel-loaded paper for the microanalysis of polar lipids from various tissues is described. All common phospholipids and their lyso derivatives can be reproducibly separated.

Polar Molecular Organisation in Liquid Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Various possibilities of polar self-organisation in low molar mass nematic, smectic and columnar liquid crystals are discussed with particular focus on the underlying molecular symmetries and interactions.

On commutative polarizations

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 2003
The purpose of this paper is to study finite-dimensional Lie algebras over a field k of characteristic zero which admit a commutative polarization (CP). Among the many results and examples, it is shown that, if k is algebraically closed, the nilradical N of a parabolic subalgebra in A_n and C_n has such a CP.
