In-Situ Particle Acceleration in Extragalactic Radio Hot Spots: Observations Meet Expectations
, 2003 We discuss, in terms of particle acceleration, the results from optical VLT observations of hot spots associated with radio galaxies. On the basis of observational and theoretical grounds, it is shown that: 1. relatively low radio-radio power hot spots

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

PLoS ONE, 2014 Wild animals are a primary source of protein (bushmeat) for people living in or near tropical forests. Ideally, the effect of bushmeat harvests should be monitored closely by making regular estimates of offtake rate and size of stock available for ...

Bright spots : seeds of a good Anthropocene
, 2016 The scale, rate, and intensity of humans’ environmental impact has engendered broad discussion about how to find plausible pathways of development that hold the most promise for fostering a better future in the Anthropocene.

Tuning the polarization states of optical spots at the nanoscale on the poincar´e sphere using a plasmonic nanoantenna [PDF]
, 2010 It is shown that the polarization states of optical spots at the nanoscale can be manipulated to various points on the Poincar´e sphere using a plasmonic nanoantenna.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

2–4 mm diameter hypo/depigmented dermal spots: ? Objective sign of somatic origin pain
Indian Journal of Pain, 2018 It is known that somatic nerves are affected by pathological changes occurring in the corresponding intervertebral discs. However, there is as yet no serological test or biomarker to diagnose disc pathology.

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the

Prediction of binding hot spot residues by using structural and evolutionary parameters
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2009 In this work, we present a method for predicting hot spot residues by using a set of structural and evolutionary parameters. Unlike previous studies, we use a set of parameters which do not depend on the structure of the protein in complex, so that the ...

Central retinal artery occlusion without cherry-red spots
BMC Ophthalmology, 2023 Background Cherry-red spots are a very important sign for the clinical diagnosis of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). We retrospectively summarized the clinical manifestations of CRAO and analysed the causes and characteristics of CRAO without ...
