The generation of droplets at low Reynolds numbers is driven by nonlinear dynamics that give rise to complex patterns concerning both the droplet-to-droplet spacing and the individual droplet sizes. Here we demonstrate an experimental system in which a time-varying energy landscape provides a periodic magnetic force that generates an array of droplets from an immiscible mixture of ferrofluid an...

Four-year-olds were tested for their ability to use differences in the spacing among features to recognize familiar faces. They were given a storybook depicting multiple views of 2 children. They returned to the laboratory 2 weeks later and used a "magic wand" to play a computer game that tested their ability to recognize the familiarized faces and their own face based on the spacing of feature...

Eriotheca gracilipes concept is re-circumscribed according to the shape and texture of leaflets, diameter petiole, calyx color, seed striation geographic distribution. In addition, a new species (Eriotheca uniflora) combination crenulata) are proposed here. Descriptions, identification key, taxonomic comments, distribution, phenology conservation status, images diagnostic characteristics table ...

If multiple opportunities are available to review to-be-learned material, should a review occur soon after initial study and recur at progressively expanding intervals, or should the reviews occur at equal intervals? Landauer and Bjork (1978) argued for the superiority of expanding intervals, whereas more recent research has often failed to find any advantage. However, these prior studies have ...

We study the level spacing distribution for the spectrum of a point scatterer on a flat torus. In the two-dimensional case, we show that in the weak coupling regime, the eigenvalue spacing distribution coincides with that of the spectrum of the Laplacian (ignoring multiplicities), by showing that the perturbed eigenvalues generically clump with the unperturbed ones on the scale of the mean leve...

In this paper we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the k-th smallest uniform spacing. Among other things, a complete characterization of upper and lower class sequences is obtained. The asymptotic behavior is similar in many respects to that of the minimum of independent uniformly distributed random variables. Let X1 , . . . ,X , be independent identically distributed uniform (0, 1) random...

Recent interest by producers, researchers, and industry personnel concerning the use of grain drills utilizing 7-in. versus 10-in. row spacing have raised questions as to the optimal drill-row spacing for rice. With the increase in hybrid rice produced and the associated low seeding rates, questions arose regarding the response of these cultivars to row widths. The objective of this study was t...
