The Randall-Sundrum models are expected to modify the short distance behavior of general relativity. In this paper, we will propose an experimental test for modification due models. This be done by analyzing motion a particle which is moving in spherical gravitational field with drag force. position at stops different relativity and model. difference moved before stopping can measured using Nan...

We analyzed more than 1,600 dispersal events from two populations of a North American cooperatively breeding woodpecker species to determine what factors influence natal dispersal distance and whether distance traveled affects reproduction later in life. We found significant heritability of natal dispersal distance, in both males and females, indicating substantial additive genetic variance for...

OBJECTIVE Determine the effects of display viewing distance on both the visual and musculoskeletal systems while the text height is held constant across viewing distances. BACKGROUND The distance from the eyes to a computer display may affect visual and neck comfort. If the angular size of the characters remains the same, it is recommended that the display be placed at a farther viewing dista...

BACKGROUND We tested a new distance and pocket optotype chart for detection of nonorganic symmetrically decreased vision in simulated malingerers. The new optotype used in the charts is based on a subjective contour formed by a misalignment of two line segments. The minimum angle of resolution of this optotype is independent of its size. Subjects claiming to see only the larger optotypes are su...

Haptic sensation of a material can be modulated by its visual appearance. A technique that utilizes this visual-haptic interaction is called as pseudo-haptic feedback. Conventional studies have investigated feedback in situations, wherein user manipulated virtual object using computer mouse, force-feedback device, etc. The present study whether and how it was possible to offer who keystrokes. P...

Abstract Habitat fragmentation impacts ecosystems worldwide through habitat loss, reduced connectivity, and edge effects. Yet, these landscape factors are often confounded, leaving much to be investigated about their relative effects, especially on species interactions. In a experiment, we the consequences of connectivity effects for seed dispersal by ants. We found that ants dispersed seeds fa...
