Culex quinquefasciatus, the southern house mosquito, is highly dependent on its olfactory system for vector-related activities such as host seeking and oviposition. The antennae are the primary olfactory organs in mosquitoes. We describe 5 morphological types of sensilla on the antenna of C. quinquefasciatus: 1) a pair of sensilla coeloconica located at the distal tip, 2) long and short sensill...

allowing extrapolation of the observed brightness and topographic relationships to the rest of the imaged area. Distinct High-resolution Galileo imaging has provided important geological units are apparent across the region, and ridges and insight into the origin and evolution of grooved terrain on grooves are ubiquitous within these units. The stratigraphically Ganymede. The Uruk Sulcus target...

A finite element model is presented to simulate chip breaking when orthogonal turning medium carbon steel with a grooved cutting tool is used. The chip formation, chip breaking, cutting force, stress, strain and temperature are simulated by the thermo-elastic-plastic finite element method, using commercial finite element software. The cutting process is simulated from the initial to the steady-...

This study measured changes in adult performance following prolonged exposure (90 minutes) to nitrous oxide at psychosedative levels. Using a repeated-measures randomized blind design, experimenters exposed 12 subjects to four treatment combinations. These included: room air for 90 minutes (baseline); 100% oxygen for 90 minutes; nitrous oxide-oxygen sedation for 90 minutes followed by 100% oxyg...

A compact and portable 300 GHz collective scattering diagnostic employing a homodyne detection scheme has been constructed and installed on the hot helicon experiment (HELIX). Verification of the homodyne detection scheme was accomplished with a rotating grooved aluminum wheel to Doppler shift the interaction beam. The HELIX chamber geometry and collection optics allow measurement of scattering...

We investigate the performance of a simple corrugated aperture scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM) probe with various cladding metals. The probes have only one corrugation, however, they offer increased transmission over both uncorrugated probes and those with many grooves. Enhancement of light throughput results from excitation of surface plasmons at the corrugation at the core-cladd...

Light which enters a photomultiplier tube is detected and produces an output signal through the following processes. (1) Light passes through the input window. (2) Light excites the electrons in the photocathode so that photoelectrons are emitted into the vacuum (external photoelectric effect). (3) Photoelectrons are accelerated and focused by the focusing electrode onto the first dynode where ...

Background Establishment of viable pregnancy requires embryo implantation and placentation. Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a pregnancy complication which occurs when an embryo implants outside of the uterine cavity, most often in a fallopian tube. On the other hand, an important aspect of successful implantation is angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic factor...
