The Star Formation Rate Function of the Local Universe

open access: yes, 2004
We have derived the bivariate luminosity function for the far ultraviolet (1530Angstroms) and far infrared (60 microns). We used matched GALEX and IRAS data, and redshifts from NED and PSC-z. We have derived a total star formation luminosity function phi(

Effect of reaction rate periodicity on detonation propagation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
As an alternative to homogeneous reaction rates, we implement "synthetic" hot-spots through a depletion rate that is a function of the local pressure multiplied by a periodic function of the spatial coordinates.

Pitfalls of assessment of autonomic function by heart rate variability

open access: yesJournal of Physiological Anthropology, 2019
Although analysis of heart rate variability is widely used for the assessment of autonomic function, its fundamental framework linking low-frequency and high-frequency components of heart rate variability with sympathetic and parasympathetic autonomic ...

One step RSB scheme for the rate distortion function

open access: yes, 2003
We apply statistical mechanics to an inverse problem of linear mapping to investigate the physics of the irreversible compression. We use the replica symmetry breaking (RSB) technique with a toy model to demonstrate the Shannon's result.

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Investigation of the rate-mediated form-function relationship in biological puncture

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Puncture is a vital mechanism for survival in a wide range of organisms across phyla, serving biological functions such as prey capture, defense, and reproduction.

Do long-duration GRBs follow star formation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We compare the luminosity function and rate inferred from the BATSE long bursts peak flux distribution with those inferred from the Swift peak flux distribution.

Pazopanib Combined With Vincristine and Irinotecan in Relapsed Wilms Tumor: Encouraging Outcomes in a Heavily Pretreated Pediatric Cohort

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While Wilms tumor (WT) typically has a favorable prognosis, relapsed cases—especially those with high‐risk histology—remain therapeutically challenging after intensive frontline therapy. The combination of vincristine and irinotecan has demonstrated activity in pediatric solid tumors, and pazopanib, a multi‐targeted tyrosine kinase ...

Interaction Strictly Improves the Wyner-Ziv Rate-distortion function

open access: yes, 2010
In 1985 Kaspi provided a single-letter characterization of the sum-rate-distortion function for a two-way lossy source coding problem in which two terminals send multiple messages back and forth with the goal of reproducing each other's sources. Yet, the

Shatter Functions with Polynomial Growth Rates [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2019
We study how a single value of the shatter function of a set system restricts its asymptotic growth. Along the way, we refute a conjecture of Bondy and Hajnal which generalizes Sauer's Lemma.
