PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that cardiac morphologic differences between Ames dwarf and wild-type littermates might correlate with the increased longevity observed in the Ames dwarf mice. METHODS Hearts removed from young adult (5-7 mo) and old (24-28 mo) Ames dwarf and wild-type littermates underwent histological and morphometric analysis. Measurements of cell size, nuclear size, and coll...

Aims. We investigate the dependence of the luminosity-diameter relation of galaxies on the environment. Methods. This study is based on a comparison between the 80 galaxies in the Shapley-Ames Catalog that are located within a distance of 10 Mpc, and the luminosity-diameter relation for galaxies in great clusters such as Virgo and Coma. Results. A relatively tight linear correlation is observed...

The AMES Wholesale Power Market Test Bed is an agent-based computational laboratory designed for the systematic experimental study of restructured wholesale power markets. These notes show how AMES can be recast in more standard state-space equation form. The result is a highly nonlinear and highly coupled system of first-order stochastic difference equations. The AMES state-space equation repr...
