Goodness of fit to a mathematical model for Drosophila sleep behavior is reduced in hyposomnolent mutants
The conserved nature of sleep in Drosophila has allowed the fruit fly to emerge in the last decade as a powerful model organism in which to study sleep. Recent sleep studies in Drosophila have focused on the discovery and characterization of hyposomnolent mutants. One common feature of these animals is a change in sleep architecture: sleep bout count tends to be greater, and sleep bout length l...
متن کاملCharacteristic Scales in Galaxy Formation
Recent data, e.g. from SDSS and 2dF, reveal a robust bi-modality in the distribution of galaxy properties, with a characteristic transition scale at stellar mass M∗ ∼ 3× 10 10 M⊙ (near L∗), corresponding to virial velocity V ∼ 100 kms . Smaller galaxies tend to be blue disks of young populations. They define a “fundamental line” of decreasing surface brightness, metallicity and velocity with de...
متن کاملAssessing Characteristic Scales Using Wavelets
Characteristic scale is a notion that pervades the geophysical sciences, but it has no widely accepted precise definition. The wavelet transform decomposes a time series into coefficients that are associated with different scales. The variance of these coefficients can be used to decompose the variance of the time series across different scales. A practical definition for characteristic scale c...
متن کاملReionization: Characteristic Scales, Topology and Observability
Recently the numerical simulations of the process of reionization of the universe at z > 6 have made a qualitative leap forward, reaching sufficient sizes and dynamic range to determine the characteristic scales of this process. This allowed making the first realistic predictions for a variety of observational signatures. We discuss recent results from large-scale radiative transfer and structu...
متن کاملIdentifying characteristic scales in the human genome.
The scale-free, long-range correlations detected in DNA sequences contrast with characteristic lengths of genomic elements, being particularly incompatible with the isochores (long, homogeneous DNA segments). By computing the local behavior of the scaling exponent alpha of detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), we discriminate between sequences with and without true scaling, and we find that no ...
