There's more than one way to manipulate a spine.
In 1889, Mark Twain described a rather resourceful character in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court by writing that ‘‘She was wise, subtle, and knew more than one way to skin a cat’’; that is, she had in her toolbox more than one way to get what she wanted. The exact origins of the phrase are unclear, but most of us interpret this expression as meaning that there are certain tasks that ...
متن کاملSwitching species tropism: an effective way to manipulate the feline coronavirus genome.
Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), a coronavirus, is the causative agent of an invariably lethal infection in cats. Like other coronaviruses, FIPV contains an extremely large positive-strand RNA genome of ca. 30 kb. We describe here the development and use of a reverse genetics strategy for FIPV based on targeted RNA recombination that is analogous to what has been described for the mo...
متن کاملRanking Publications : To Manipulate or Not to Manipulate ∗
We develop a multi-period theoretical model to characterize the relationship between a publication that ranks universities and prospective attendees – high school students – who might view the ranking and use it to help decide which university to attend. We assert that published rankings not only offer information about the objective quality of universities, but also have an effect on the prest...
متن کاملMass Generation for an Ultralight Axion
If a global chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by anomalies in nonabelian gauge theories, a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (axion) associated with a spontaneous breakdown of such a global symmetry acquires a mass through nonperturbative instanton effects. We calculate the axion mass assuming a supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory and show that the axion obtains an extremely small mass when the SU(...
متن کاملAffleck-Dine Leptogenesis with an Ultralight Neutrino
We perform a detailed analysis on Affleck-Dine leptogenesis taking into account the thermal effects on the dynamics of the flat direction field φ. We find that an extremely small mass for the lightest neutrino ν1, mν1 ∼ 10−8 eV, is required to produce enough lepton-number asymmetry to explain the baryon asymmetry in the present universe. We impose here the reheating temperature after inflation ...
