We present a simple modification for thermoelectrically cooled photomultiplier tube (PMT) assemblies that eliminates the magnetic interference between the peltier element and the PMT. An active compensation is accomplished by forming current loops of the wires of the peltier element and placing them in such a way that they eliminate the interfering magnetic field. It is demonstrated that the im...

This paper addresses the need to systematically design learning content to promote world heritage site preservation awareness. Based on 212 samples from a local university in Luang Prabang, Lao PDR, impact of learning content designed according to Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) is assessed through a repeated-measure t-test. Findings show that PMT-based learning content influences respondent...

JUNO is a 20-kton liquid scintillator detector aiming to determine the neutrino mass ordering, precisely measure oscillation parameters, detect astrophysical neutrinos and search for exotic physics. It designed reach an energy resolution of 3% at 1 MeV with highest ever PMT coverage, using two types 20" phototubes: MCP-PMT from NNVT dynode-PMT Hamamatsu. In this article, gain charge response MC...

Background Psychomotor therapy (PMT) is often applied in Dutch clinical practice to address aggressive behaviour individuals with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline functioning. However, the literature on clients’ experiences lacking.Methods An interpretative phenomenological analysis was used analyse semi-structured interviews of seven participants (19–60 years; four male, three fema...

The protein methyltransferases (PMT) constitute a large and important class of enzymes that catalyze site-specific methylation of lysine or arginine residues on histones and other proteins. Site-specific histone methylation is a critical component of chromatin regulation of gene transcription-a pathway that is often genetically altered in human cancers. Oncogenic alterations (e.g., mutations, c...

There has been intense interest in the development of selective bioorthogonal reactions or "click" chemistry that can proceed in live animals. Until now however, most reactions still require vast surpluses of reactants because of steep temporal and spatial concentration gradients. Using computational modeling and design of pharmacokinetically optimized reactants, we have developed a predictable...

This paper reports on an empirical study that investigates the information disclosure behavior on Social Network Sites (SNS) focusing on undergraduate University students as our population. Although much have been reported on the issue of information privacy or privacy leakage on SNS, very few have employed the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) as a framework to understand SNS user’s behavior ...

Node loss and congestion changes the performance characteristics of the multicast trees. Probabilistic Multicast Trees (PMT) makes use of performance feedback, generates a probability of usage for each multicast tree based on that feedback and then makes intelligent choices about which multicast tree to use for a given packet in the presence of node loss and congestion. The advantage gained by ...

Mounting evidence suggests that protein methyltransferases (PMTs), which catalyze methylation of histone and nonhistone proteins, play a crucial role in diverse biological processes and human diseases. In particular, PMTs have been recognized as major players in regulating gene expression and chromatin state. PMTs are divided into two categories: protein lysine methyltransferases (PKMTs) and pr...

The Porteus Maze Test (PMT) provides measures of planning and behavioral disinhibition. The PMT was administered to 941 twins during Wave 1 (9-10 years) and 320 twins during Wave 2 (11-13 years). Participants were drawn from the University of Southern California Risk Factors for Antisocial Behavior Study (RFAB). Heritability of behavioral disinhibition, determined by PMT Q-Score, were 33% at Wa...
