Free-standing, membrane-embedded, Si microwire arrays have been used to affect the solar-driven, unassisted splitting of HI into H2 and I3 . The Si microwire arrays were grown by a chemical-vapor-deposition vapor–liquid–solid growth process using Cu growth catalysts, with a radial np junction then formed on each microwire. A Nafion proton-exchange membrane was introduced between the microwires ...

Methadone is clinically effective as substitution therapy in patients with opioid dependence. The diversity of methadone and morphine in their intracellular activity is postulated. We compared the effects of repeated daily treatment of Sprague-Dawley rats with morphine (10 mg/kg) and methadone (1 mg/kg) on the expression of the Gα(i1-i3) mRNAs in several rat brain areas using RT-qPCR. We found ...

We derive an expression for the non-Gaussian cosmic-microwave-background (CMB) statistic I3 l defined recently by Ferreira, Magueijo, and Górski in terms of the slow-roll-inflation parameters ǫ and η. This result shows that a nonzero value of I3 l in COBE would rule out single-field slow-roll inflation. A sharp change in the slope of the inflaton potential could increase the predicted value of ...

We combine the Integrated Impact Indicator (I3) and the h-index into the I3-type framework and introduce the publication vector X = (X1, X2, X3) and the citation vector Y = (Y1, Y2, Y3) , the publication score I3X=X1+X2+X3 and the citation score I3Y=Y1+Y2+Y3, and alternative indicators based on percentile classes generated by the h-index. These multivariate indicators can be used for academic e...

BACKGROUND In cases where the acetabular labrum is severely damaged and irreparable, labral reconstructions are becoming an increasingly preferred means of preserving the fluid seal effect of the labrum. However, the graft that most closely replicates the biomechanical properties of the native labrum remains undetermined. PURPOSE To characterize the tensile properties and geometry of the labr...

The roles of ANG II in the brain mechanisms subserving thirst and Na appetite in baboons were investigated by chronic intracerebroventricular infusions of ANG II and AT1-receptor antagonists using subcutaneous miniosmotic pumps and by oral administration of captopril. ANG II at 3 or 5 micrograms/h for 7 days increased water intake from 2,455 +/- 107 to 7,052 +/- 562 ml/day by day 6 and 300 mM N...

A field experiment was conducted at Precision Farming Development Center, college farm, of agriculture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad during kharif, The laid out in split plot design with three drip irrigation levels as main treatments (viz., I1- Drip 1.0 E pan, I2- 0.8 I3- 0.6E pan) and four mulches M1-No mulch, M2- Paddy straw, M3- Black plastic M4- Dried leaves) sub were replicated thrice. experi...

Far-infrared spontaneous emission at 300 K and lower temperatures, due to intersubband transitions in self-organized In0.4Ga0.6As/GaAs quantum dots, has been characterized. Measurements were made with a multidot layer near-infrared ~;1 mm! interband laser. The far-infrared signal, centered at 12 mm, was enhanced after the interband transition reached threshold at 300 K. The results are explaine...
