The goal of this study was to determine the effects of the L-type calcium channel blockers verapamil and diltiazem on the currents of voltage-gated potassium channel (fKv1.4ΔN), an N-terminal-deleted mutant of the ferret Kv1.4 potassium channel. Measurements were made using a two electrode voltage clamp technique with channels expressed stably in Xenopus oocytes. The fKv1.4ΔN currents displayed...

Controllable Motions of Compressible Simple Materials of Various Types. I t is shown tha t a motion is possible in every compressible homogeneous isotropie simple solid having a certain range of memory, in the presence of a constant body force field, if and only if it is homogeneous and uniformly accelerated after a certain time. I n the class of solids having perfect memory, the only motion of...

Directed motivational current (DMC) ̶ as a novel strand in L2 motivational field ̶ is a robust motivational drive fueled by a highly valued goal and capable of stimulating and sustaining long-term behavior. The present study explored English as a foreign language students’ Directed Motivational Currents by validating the dynamic web-based Persian version of the scale, finding the most crucial mot...

introduction: human embryonic stem cells (hescs) are pluripotent cells that can proliferate and differentiate to many cell types. their electrophysiological properties have not yet been chracterzed. in this study, the passive properties (such as resting membrane potential, input resistance and capacitance) and the contribution of delayed rectifier k+ channel currents to the membrane conductance...

The first part of this paper presents a new accurate approach for fault classification for high speed protective distance relaying using a new algorithm of ANN called Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN). This approach is based on phasor measurements of phase voltages and line currents as well as zero sequence currents. A comparison between the applied algorithm and other algorithms that have bee...

s of Workshop Presentations Ultrafast and Gigantic Spin Injection in Semiconductor M. Battiato*, K. Held Institute of Solid State Physics, TU Wien, Vienna, 1040, Austria *[email protected] The injection of spin currents in semiconductors is one of the big challenges of spintronics. Motivated by the ultrafast demagnetisation and spin injection into metals, we propose an alternative...

Electrons have a charge and a spin, but until recently these were considered separately. In classical electronics, charges are moved by electric fields to transmit information and are stored in a capacitor to save it. In magnetic recording, magnetic fields have been used to read or write the information stored on the magnetization, which 'measures' the local orientation of spins in ferromagnets...
