The formalism of Dalitz-Plot analysis is reviewed in the preceding note. Recent studies of multi-body decays of charm mesons probe a variety of physics including γ/φ 3 , D 0 –D 0 mixing, searches for CP violation, doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays, and properties of S-wave ππ, Kπ, and KK resonances. In the following, we discuss: (1) D 0 → K 0 S π + π − ; (2) doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays; and...

abstract water deficit is a major problem for the successful production of agricultural products in iran. this research was conducted to evaluate drought tolerance indices and identifying drought tolerant cultivars of canola. twenty eight canola cultivars were sassed implementing complete block designs experiments in normal and drought stress conditions at isfahan university of technology resea...

We have used recent observations of helium-4, nitrogen and oxygen from some four dozen, low metallicity, extra-galactic HII regions to define mean N versus O, He versus N and He versus O relations which are extrapolated to zero metallicity to determine the primordial He mass fraction YP . The data and various subsets of the data, selected on the basis of nitrogen and oxygen, are all consistent ...

Forest water use efficiency (WUE), the ratio of gross primary productivity (GPP) to evapotranspiration (ET), is an important variable understand coupling between and carbon cycles, assess resource use, ecosystem resilience, commodity production. Here, we determined WUE for managed loblolly pine plantations over course a rotation on coastal plain North Carolina in eastern U.S. We found that fore...

Training: intractable likelihood likelihood needed for MCMC; grid MRF intractable due to global normalization. Solution: pseudo-likelihood approximation, locally normalized: p(y|f) = ∏P p=1 p(yp|yp+1 . . . yP , f) ≈ ∏P p=1 p(yp|neighbours(p), f) Prediction: intractable marginals Pixel-wise MAP intractable in grid MRF. Solution: Obtain approximate marginals using treereweighted belief propagatio...

As one of the fast-growth wood species, hybrid yellow poplar (YP-h, Liriodendron sino-americanum) has been extensively planted throughout China, however, little is known about its properties and applicability in structural nonstructural applications such as construction furniture. The aim this study was to evaluate YP-h examine differences with (YP, tulipifera). average vessel diameter (55 μm)...

PURPOSE Downstaging after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for rectal cancer usually occurs. The present study aimed to evaluate pathologic y-stage (yp-stage) and its influence on local recurrence and systemic recurrence in rectal cancer patients treated with CRT followed by surgical resection. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 261 patients underwent preoperative CRT and radical resection for rectal...

in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural and natural resource station of sistan. seventy tow double haploid lines of barley with their parents (steptoe and morex) were examined using two 9×9 simple lattice (stress and non-stress), with two replications. each plot consisted of six rows that were 3m in length a...
