The representation theory of the maximally extended superalgebra with 32 fermionic and 528 bosonic generators is developed in order to investigate non-perturbative properties of the democratic secret theory behind strings and other p-branes. The presence

We propose a direct test of the existence of gauge duals for nonsupersymmetric asymptotically free gauge theories developing an infrared fixed point by computing the S-parameter in the electric and dual magnetic description. In particular we show that at

New Physics in b --> s bar(s) s Decay
We perform a model-independent analysis of the data on branching ratios and CP asymmetries of $B\to\phi K$ and $B\to\eta^{(')} K^{(*)}$ modes. The present data is encouraging to look for indirect evidences of physics beyond the Standard Model.

Practical jokes: don Delillo´s ratner´s star and literary games [PDF]
“Literary games” are strategies employed by writers to draw attention to, to disrupt, and even to subvert the conventions of literary production and reading.

S-(+)- and R-(-)-linalool: a comparison of the in vitro anti-Aeromonas hydrophila activity and anesthetic properties in fish [PDF]
Linalool is the main compound of many essential oils and occurs in two isomeric forms: S-(+)- and R-(-)-linalool. This study aimed to determine if linalool isomers have different antimicrobial and anesthetic properties in fish. For this purpose, these compounds were previously isolated from Lippia alba (Mill.)N. E.

BVRI Surface Photometry of (S+S) Binary Galaxies. I. The data [PDF]
We present multicolour broad band ($BVRI$) photometry for a sample of 33 spiral-spiral (S+S) binary galaxies drawn from the Karachentsev Catalogue of Isolated Pairs of Galaxies (KPG).

The XXX spin s quantum chain and the alternating $s^{1}$, $s^{2}$ chain with boundaries [PDF]
The integrable XXX spin s quantum chain and the alternating $s^{1}$, $s^{2}$ ($s^{1}-s^{2}={1\over 2}$) chain with boundaries are considered. The scattering of their excitations with the boundaries via the Bethe ansatz method is studied, and the exact ...

An unbiased approach elucidates variation in ( S )-(+)-linalool, a context-specific mediator of a tri-trophic interaction in wild tobacco [PDF]
Plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) mediate many interactions, and the function of common VOCs is especially likely to depend on ecological context. We used a genetic mapping population of wild tobacco, Nicotiana attenuata , originating from a cross of 2 natural accessions from Arizona and Utah, separated by the

Monoterpenoids (thymol, carvacrol and S-(+)-linalool) with anesthetic activity in silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen): evaluation of acetylcholinesterase and GABAergic activity [PDF]
This study evaluated the anesthetic potential of thymol and carvacrol, and their influence on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the muscle and brain of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen). The AChE activity of S-(+)-linalool was also evaluated. We subsequently assessed the effects of thymol and S-(+)-linalool on the GABAergic system.

Regular S-Brane Backgrounds [PDF]
We construct time-dependent S-brane solutions to the supergravity field equations in various dimensions which (unlike most such geometries) do not contain curvature singularities.
