Abstract The cosmic distance relation (DDR) associates the angular diameters ( ) and luminosity D_L by a simple formula, i.e., = (1+z)^2D_A . strongly lensed gravitational waves (GWs) provide unique way to measure simultaneously GW source, hence they can be used as probes test DDR. In this study, we investigated use of events from future Einstein Telescope We assumed possible ...

For studies of galaxy formation and evolution, one the major benefits James Webb Space Telescope is that space-based IFUs like those on its NIRSpec MIRI instruments will enable spatially resolved spectroscopy distant galaxies, including at scale individual star-forming regions in galaxies have been gravitationally lensed. In meantime, there only a very small subset lensed sources where work thi...

STUDY DESIGN Case controlled study. OBJECTIVE To explore the relative effects of body mass index (BMI) and the presence or absence of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) on bone mineral density (BMD) as evidenced by Z-scores in adolescents. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Prior studies have identified adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis as having "osteoporosis" or "osteopenia," when only a s...

When applied to deep photometric catalogs, the two-point angular correlation function, ω(θ), is a sensitive probe of the evolution of galaxy clustering properties. Here we present measurements of ω(θ) as a function of IAB magnitude and (R − I) color to a depth of IAB = 24 on scales θ = 7 − 3, using a sample of ∼ 350, 000 galaxies covering 5 degrees in total over 5 separate fields. Using redshif...

We analyzed the phylogenetic relationships of the Malagasy plated lizards in the family Gerrhosauridae based on DNA sequence fragments of four mitochondrial and five nuclear genes. Various clades were strongly supported by the concatenated data set and also recovered by separate analyses of mtDNA and nucDNA. In particular, two clades here named the Z. rufipes group (containing Z. bemaraha , Z. ...

the concept of algebraic hyperstructures introduced by marty as a generalization of ordinary algebraic structures. in an ordinary algebraic structure, the composition of two elements is an element, while in an algebraic hyperstructure, the composition of two elements is a set. the concept of ?-semihyperrings is a generalization of semirings, a generalization of semihyper rings and a generalizat...

We show that there exists a connected graph G with subexponential volume growth such that critical percolation on G× Z has infinitely many infinite clusters. We also give some conditions under which this cannot occur. This paper begins with the observation that if G is any connected graph and p is any number in [0, 1], then the number of infinite clusters in p-percolation on G × Z is determinis...

We have previously shown that the HER2-specific affibody molecule (Z(HER2∶342))₂ inhibits proliferation of SKBR-3 cells. Here, we continue to investigate its biological effects in vitro by studying receptor dimerization and clonogenic survival following irradiation. We found that (Z(HER2∶342))₂ sensitizes the HER2-overexpressing cell line SKBR-3 to ionizing radiation. The survival after exposur...
