  • Dahlem, Marcus Vinicius Sobral; Holzwarth, Charles W.; Khilo, Anatol M.; Kaertner, Franz X.; Smith, Henry Ignatius; Ippen, Erich P. (Optical Society of America, 2010-05)
    A wide-band, eleven-channel second-order filterbank fabricated on an SOI platform is demonstrated with tunable channel spacing and a 20 GHz single-channel bandwidth. The tuning efficiency is ~28 μW/GHz/ring.
  • Lusztig, George (American Mathematical Society, 2012-02)
    Let G be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field whose characteristic is not a bad prime for G. Let w be an elliptic element of the Weyl group which has minimum length in its conjugacy class. We show that there ...
  • Jin, Tianquan; Ito, Yoshihiro; Luan, Xianghong; Dangaria, Smit; Walker, Cameron; Allen, Michael; Kulkarni, Ashok; Gibson, Carolyn; Braatz, Richard D.; Liao, Xiubei; Diekwisch, Thomas G. H. (Public Library of Science, 2009-12)
    Vertebrate body designs rely on hydroxyapatite as the principal mineral component of relatively light-weight, articulated endoskeletons and sophisticated tooth-bearing jaws, facilitating rapid movement and efficient ...
  • Zeng, Qiandong; Holder, Jason W.; Mahan, Alison E.; Brigham, Christopher J.; Budde, Charles F.; Rha, ChoKyun; Sinskey, Anthony J. (American Society for Microbiology, 2010-08)
    Ralstonia eutropha H16 is capable of growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate production on plant oils and fatty acids. However, little is known about the triacylglycerol and fatty acid degradation pathways of this bacterium. We ...
  • Farshchi, Shahin; Pesterev, Aleksey; Nuyujukian, Paul; Guenterberg, Eric; Mody, Istvan; Judy, Jack W. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-04)
    To create a wireless neural recording system that can benefit from the continuous advancements being made in embedded microcontroller and communications technologies, an embedded-system-based architecture for wireless ...
  • Demaine, Erik D.; Schulz, Andre (Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), 2011-01)
    We show how to realize a stacked 3D polytope (formed by repeatedly stacking a tetrahedron onto a triangular face) by a strictly convex embedding with its n vertices on an integer grid of size O(n4) x O(n4) x O(n18). ...
  • Koshimizu, Eriko; Imamura, Shintaro; Qi, Jie; Toure, Jamal; Valdez Jr., Delgado M.; Carr, Christopher E.; Hanai, Jun-ichi; Kishi, Shuji (Public Library of Science, 2010-03)
    Background: Mutations that disrupt the conversion of prelamin A to mature lamin A cause the rare genetic disorder Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and a group of laminopathies. Our understanding of how A-type lamins ...
  • Mazzoni, Esteban O.; Mahony, Shaun; Iacovino, Michelina; Morrison, Carolyn A.; Mountoufaris, George; Closser, Michael; Whyte, Warren Anthony; Young, Richard A.; Kyba, Michael; Gifford, David K.; Wichterle, Hynek (Nature Publishing Group, 2011-11)
    The study of developmentally regulated transcription factors by chromatin immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) faces two major obstacles: availability of ChIP-grade antibodies and access to sufficient number ...
  • Miyagawa, Shigeru; Berwick, Robert C. (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2013-02)
    We propose a novel account for the emergence of human language syntax. Like many evolutionary innovations, language arose from the adventitious combination of two pre-existing, simpler systems that had been evolved for ...
  • Kirksey, S. Eben; Helmreich, Stefan (American Anthropological Association, 2010-11)
    Anthropologists have been committed, at least since Franz Boas, to investigating relationships between nature and culture. At the dawn of the 21st century, this enduring interest was inflected with some new twists. An ...
  • Shikano, Yutaka; Chisaki, Kota; Segawa, Etsuo; Konno, Norio (American Physical Society, 2010-06)
    Quantum walks are powerful tools not only for constructing the quantum speedup algorithms but also for describing specific models in physical processes. Furthermore, the discrete time quantum walk has been experimentally ...
  • Yankowitz, Matthew; Xue, Jiamin; Cormode, Daniel; Sanchez-Yamagishi, Javier; Watanabe, K.; Taniguchi, T.; Jarillo-Herrero, Pablo; Jacquod, Philippe; LeRoy, Brian J. (Nature Publishing Group, 2012-03)
    The Schrödinger equation dictates that the propagation of nearly free electrons through a weak periodic potential results in the opening of bandgaps near points of the reciprocal lattice known as Brillouin zone boundaries1. ...
  • Wang, J.; Carvalho, Pedro M. S.; Kirtley Jr., James L. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2012-01)
    Emergency reconfiguration can improve distribution systems' reliability by enabling load transfer among substations. Previous studies, although present its operation strategies, seldom explore emergency reconfiguration's ...
  • Faulkner, Thomas; Liu, Hong; McGreevy, John; Vegh, David (American Physical Society, 2011-06)
    Gravity solutions dual to d-dimensional field theories at finite charge density have a near-horizon region, which is AdS2×Rd-1. The scale invariance of the AdS2 region implies that at low energies the dual field theory ...
  • Schnorr, Jan Markus; Swager, Timothy Manning (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-11)
    On the basis of their unique electrical and mechanical properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted great attention in recent years. A diverse array of methods has been developed to modify CNTs and to assemble them ...
  • Laplante, Mathieu; Sabatini, David M. (Elsevier Ltd., 2009-12)
    Lipid biosynthesis is essential for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. The lipids produced by cells (glycerolipids, fatty acids, phospholipids, cholesterol, and sphingolipids) are used as an energy source/reserve, ...
  • Artemiadis, Panagiotis; Kyriakopoulos, Kostas J. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers / IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, 2010-01)
    As robots come closer to humans, an efficient human-robot-control interface is an utmost necessity. In this paper, electromyographic (EMG) signals from muscles of the human upper limb are used as the control interface ...
  • Artemiadis, Panagiotis; Kyriakopoulos, Kostas J. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-05)
    Human-robot control interfaces have received increased attention during the past decades. With the introduction of robots in everyday life, especially in providing services to people with special needs (i.e., elderly, ...
