Isomeric and concentration effects of C4-cosurfactants on four-component microemulsions investigated by neutron spin-echo and small-angle scattering
(Institute of Physics and IOP Publishing Limited, 2006-08-24)
Neutron spin-echo spectroscopy and small-angle scattering measurements were performed to determine how the isomeric structure and concentration of C4-cosurfactants (i.e. butyl alcohols) influence structure and dynamics in ...
The Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem applied to rumour transmission
(Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam, 2006-08)
The results of the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem are extended to continuous dynamical systems. It is shown that if there exists
a compact convex positive invariant set for the dynamical system, then this convex positive ...
Repression of HPV16 early region transcription by the E2 protein
(Elsevier: Virology, 2006-07-20)
HPV16 DNA is often integrated in cancers, disrupting the E1 or E2 genes. E2 can repress the E6/E7 promoter, but other models have been proposed to explain why integration promotes malignant progression. E1 and E2 are ...
Three-band temperature extraction from airborne imagery with imprecise atmospheric knowledge
(American Geophysical Union, 2006-07-12)
The accurate estimation of an object's surface temperature from airborne imagery is complicated by several factors, including the effects of the atmosphere and surface emissivity variations. Several methods have been ...
Quantum efficiency overestimation and deterministic cross talk resulting from interpixel capacitance
(International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), 2006-07)
Pixels in both hybridized and monolithic complementary
metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) detector arrays may couple capacitively
to their neighboring pixels. This “interpixel capacitance” can signifi-
cantly distort the ...
Exploring the career/achievement and personal life orientation differences between entrepreneurs and nonentrepreneurs: The impact of sex and dependents
(Blackwell Publishing, Ltd.
The definitive version is available at http://www.blackwell-synergy.com., 2006-07)
This study explores the career/achievement and personal life orientations of entrepreneurs, specifically the impact of sex and dependent-child status. Although a growing body of research has explored the similarities and ...
Statistical models for physically derived target sub-spaces
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2006-07)
Traditional approaches to hyperspectral target detection involve the application of detection algorithms to atmo-
spherically compensated imagery. Rather than compensate the imagery, a more recent approach uses physical
models ...
The Pressures of suction feeding: The Relation between buccal pressure and induced fluid speed in centrarchid fishes
(The Company of Biologists, 2006-06-14)
Suction feeding fish rapidly expand their oral cavity,
resulting in a flow of water directed towards the mouth
that is accompanied by a drop in pressure inside the
buccal cavity. Pressure inside the mouth and fluid ...
The coefficients of the characteristic polynomial in terms of the eigenvalues and the elements of an n×n matrix
(Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam, 2006-06)
The coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of an n × n matrix are derived in terms of the eigenvalues and
in terms of the elements of the matrix. The connection between the two expressions allows the sum of the ...
Synthesis and characterization of boron-doped single-wall carbon nanotubes produced by the laser vaporization technique
(The American Chemical Society: Chemistry of Materials, 2006-05-16)
We present the first successful high-yield laser vaporization synthesis of high-quality boron-doped single-wall carbon nanotubes (B-SWNTs). Boron was loaded into graphite targets in the form of elemental B as well as nickel ...
