We propose that the expectation value of a circular BPS-Wilson loop in N54 supersymmetric Yang–Mills can be calculated exactly, to all orders in a 1/N expansion and to all orders in gN . Using the AdS/CFT duality, this result yields a prediction of the value of the string amplitude with a circular boundary to all orders in a8 and to all orders in gs . We then compare this result with string the...

This study investigated the effects of screwdriver handle shape, surface, and workpiece orientation on subjective discomfort, number of screw-tightening rotations, screw-insertion time, axial screwdriving force, and finger contact forces in a screwdriving task. Handles with three longitudinal cross-sectional shapes (circular, hexagonal, triangular), four lateral shapes (cylindrical, double frus...

We present accurate state-to-state quantum wave packet calculations of integral cross sections and rate constants for the title reaction. Calculations are carried out on the best available ground 1(2)A' global adiabatic potential energy surface of Deskevich et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 124, 224303 (2006)]. Converged state-to-state reaction cross sections have been calculated for collision energies up...

Ring chromosomes are circular chromosomal abnormalities that have been reported in association with some genetic disorders and cancers. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, lack of function of protection of telomere 1 (Pot1) or telomerase catalytic subunit (Trt1) results in survivors with circular chromosomes. Hitherto, it is poorly understood how cells with circular chromosomes survive and how circul...

An interrupted stitch type with favorable tissue characteristics will reduce local wound complications. We describe a novel high-strength, low-tension repair for the interrupted closure of skin, cartilage, and muscle, the double loop mattress stitch, and compare it experimentally with other interrupted closure methods. The performance of the double loop mattress technique in porcine cartilage a...

Abstract This paper presents the methodology, development, and implementation of double concentric ring band-pass frequency selective surface (FSS) based spatial filters. The filters are designed to improve active responses 5G antennas by incorporating them as superstrate or substrates. A comparable circuit model is used anticipate resonant bands required for predicting FSS behavior. filter com...
