Subsequent to Paper I, the evolution and fragmentation of a rotating magnetized cloud are studied with use of three-dimensional MHD nested-grid simulations. After the isothermal runaway collapse, an adiabatic gas forms a protostellar first core at the center of the cloud. When the isothermal gas is stable for fragmentation in a contracting disk, the adiabatic core often breaks into several frag...

By constructing explicit examples, we show that the core of a group-like element in cocommutative cosemisimple Yetter-Drinfel'd Hopf algebra over group ring finite abelian is not always completely trivial.

Hypervelocity impact cratering is an important geologic process but the rarity of large terrestrial craters on Earth and limited technical options to study processes in laboratory hinders our understanding large-scale processes. Drill core recovered from peak ring Chicxulub crater during International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP)/International Continental scientific Drilling (ICDP) Expedition...

Azaarenes belong to the newly identified classes of anthropogenic pollutants. To our knowledge, this study presents the first result of pollution history of azaarenes and their controlling factors in estuary. To understand the transport mechanisms, surface sediment samples were collected from 18 sites of the Danshuei River during the summer and the winter of 2005. The highest concentrations of ...

The immunological synapse (IS) formed at the interface between T cells and antigen-presenting cells represents a hallmark of initiation of acquired immunity. T cell activation is initiated at T cell receptor (TCR) microclusters (MCs), in which TCRs and signaling molecules assemble at the interface before IS formation. We found that each TCR-MC was transiently bordered by a ring structure made o...

Eukaryotic cells use conserved multisubunit membrane tethering complexes, including CORVET (class C core vacuole/endosome tethering) and HOPS (homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting), to control the fusion of endomembranes. These complexes have been extensively studied in yeast, but to date there have been far fewer studies of metazoan CORVET and HOPS. Both of these complexes comprise six...

we introduce center-like subsets z*(r,f), z**(r,f) and z1(r,f), where r is a ring and f is a map from r to r. for f a derivation or a non-identity epimorphism and r a suitably-chosen prime or semiprime ring, we prove that these sets coincide with the center of r.

for an arbitrary ring $r$, the zero-divisor graph of $r$, denoted by $gamma (r)$, is an undirected simple graph that its vertices are all nonzero zero-divisors of $r$ in which any two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if either $xy=0$ or $yx=0$. it is well-known that for any commutative ring $r$, $gamma (r) cong gamma (t(r))$ where $t(r)$ is the (total) quotient ring of $r$. in this...

let r be a prime ring with extended centroid c, h a generalized derivation of r and n ⩾ 1 a xed integer. in this paper we study the situations: (1) if (h(xy))n = (h(x))n(h(y))n for all x; y 2 r; (2) obtain some related result in case r is a noncommutative banach algebra and h is continuous or spectrally bounded.

a ring $r$ is a strongly clean ring if every element in $r$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate. we construct some classes of strongly clean rings which have stable range one. it is shown that such cleanness of $2 imes 2$ matrices over commutative local rings is completely determined in terms of solvability of quadratic equations.
