A bstract It is assumed that heavy dark matter particles ϕ with O(TeV) mass captured by the Sun may decay to relativistic light milli-charged (MCPs). These MCPs could be measured IceCube detector. The massless hidden photon model was taken for interact nuclei, so numbers and fluxes of expected neutrinos evaluated at IceCube. Based on assumption no events are observed in 6 years, corresponding u...

Eric See-To Department of Management Science Lancaster University Management School Open source software (OSS) is now posing significant competition to proprietary or closed source software (CSS) in several software markets. In this paper, we characterize the response of a firm developing CSS to the presence of an OSS in its market. In particular, we look at the firm's choice of resource invest...

Two new controller structures, namely the continuous-time current-type observer and current-type CSS (Chen-Saberi-Sannuti) architecture-based controllers, are considered in this paper for loop transfer recovery design for general non-strictly proper non-minimum phase systems. The proposed observer is structurally analogous to the current estimator of discrete-time systems, while the proposed CS...

It has been suggested that septal nuclei are important in the control of behavior during various reward and non-reward situations. In the present study, neuronal activity was recorded from rat septal nuclei during discrimination of conditioned sensory stimuli (CSs) of the medial forebrain bundle associated with or without a reward (sucrose solution or intracranial self-stimulation, ICSS). Rats ...

MOTIVATION The binding sites of proteins generally contain smaller regions that provide major contributions to the binding free energy and hence are the prime targets in drug design. Screening libraries of fragment-sized compounds by NMR or X-ray crystallography demonstrates that such 'hot spot' regions bind a large variety of small organic molecules, and that a relatively high 'hit rate' is pr...
