The crest factor properties of binary phase-shift keying modulated twoand four-code assisted multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) employing complementary-sequence-based spreading sequences are characterized. More specifically, a complementary-sequence pair, a complementary-sequence-based subcomplementary code pair, and a Sivaswamy’s complementary code set are studied. It was fou...

We study the dΓ/dq spectra and the branching fractions of the D meson exclusive semileptonic decays with the lepton mass effects into consideration. We investigate their sensitivity to form factor models, and find that the decays to a pseudoscalar meson and a lepton pair are sensitive to the property of the form factor F1(q ), and those to a vector meson and a lepton pair to the form factor A1(...

This paper presents studies of the universal properties of strongly interacting Fermi gases using Bragg spectroscopy. We focus on pair-correlations, their relationship to the contact C introduced by Tan, and their dependence on both the momentum and temperature. We show that short-range pair correlations obey a universal law, first derived by Tan through measurements of the static structure fac...

A 138-kDa nuclear protein was identified from HeLa cell extracts as a factor which binds to a previously described 20-base pair cis element located in the intron I of the c-myc gene. This myc intron factor (MIF) binds to the wild type c-myc sequence but does not bind under similar conditions to c-myc from Burkitt's lymphoma which contain point mutations in this binding region. We have demonstra...

We have identified a cellular transcription factor from uninfected HeLa cells that stimulates the simian virus 40 (SV40) late mode of transcription and specifically binds the SV40 21-base-pair repeat promoter element. In particular, the late SV40 transcription factor (LSF) stimulates transcription at initiation sites L325 and L264 of the SV40 late promoter, which are the major transcription sit...

We revisit the high-energy spectral cutoff originating from the electron-positron pair creation in the prompt phase of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with numerical and analytical calculations. We show that the conventional exponential cutoff should be drastically modified to a steepened power-law in practical observations that integrate emissions from different internal shocks. Since the steepening i...

A 2-factor in a graph is a spanning 2-regular subgraph, or equivalently a spanning collection of disjoint cycles. In this paper we investigate the existence of 2-factors with a bounded number of odd cycles in a graph. We extend results of Ryjáček, Saito, and Schelp (Closure, 2-factors, and cycle coverings in claw-free graphs, J. Graph Theory, 32 (1999), no. 2, 109-117) and show that the number ...

The main purpose of this paper is to study the approximate best proximity pair of cyclic maps and their diameter in fuzzy normed spaces defined by Bag and Samanta. First, approximate best point proximity points on fuzzy normed linear spaces are defined and four general lemmas are given regarding approximate fixed point and approximate best proximity pair of cyclic maps on fuzzy normed spaces. U...
