This paper introduces a novel variation of the vee dipole antenna consisting of two coplanar vee dipoles with a common feed point. It is referred to as a double-vee dipole. Radiation characteristics of the double-vee dipole antenna are investigated numerically and experimentally. It is shown that the double-vee dipole can provide significantly higher directivity and lower sidelobes and back rad...

A novel genetic vaccine that is based on a Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEE) replicon launched from plasmid DNA is described. The plasmid encodes a VEE replicon under the transcriptional control of the cytomegalovirus immediate-early promoter (VEE DNA). The VEE DNA consistently expressed 3- to 15-fold more green fluorescent protein in vitro than did a conventional DNA vaccine. Furtherm...

Let  $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. We say that $I$ satisfies the persistence property if  $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^k)subseteq mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $I$. In this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring  $R=K[x_1,ld...

let  $r$ be a commutative noetherian ring and $i$ be an ideal of $r$. we say that $i$ satisfies the persistence property if  $mathrm{ass}_r(r/i^k)subseteq mathrm{ass}_r(r/i^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{ass}_r(r/i)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $i$. in this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring  $r=k[x_1,ld...

The enzootic or endemic strains of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus (ID, IE, IF, and II-VI) are considered avirulent. In 1993 and 1996, outbreaks of encephalitis occurred in the horse populations in the Chiapas and Oaxaca provinces of Mexico, respectively. In both instances, enzootic VEE virus subserotype IE was isolated from brain tissues of dead horses. The present study invest...

We used previously characterized murine monoclonal antibodies to develop a panel useful in subtyping Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) viruses by an indirect fluorescent antibody assay. This panel worked well with either prototype VEE viruses or a series of more recent VEE virus isolates. The panel is particularly useful for rapidly differentiating VEE viruses with epidemic-epizootic potenti...

In this paper, we shall show that the following translation \(I^M\) from propositional fragment \(\bf L_1\) of Leśniewski's ontology to modal logic KTB\) is sound: for any formula \(\phi\) and \(\psi\) L_1\), it defined as (M1) \(I^M(\phi \vee \psi) = I^M(\phi) I^M(\psi)\), (M2) \(I^M(\neg \phi) \neg I^M(\phi)\), (M3) \(I^M(\epsilon ab) \Diamond p_a \supset . \wedge \Box p_b .\wedge p_a\), wher...

The first step towards near-rings was an axiomatic research done by Dickson in 1905. In 1936, it was Zassenhaus who used the name near-ring. Many parts of the well established theory of rings are transferred to near-rings and new specific features of near-rings have been discovered. To deal with the idea of near-rings using ternary product Warud Nakkhasen and Bundit Pibaljommee have applied the...

Let $\mathfrak{j}$ and $\mathfrak{j}^{'}$ be the Cartan subalgebras of complex semi-simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ $\mathfrak{g}^{'}$, $\mathfrak{j}^{*}$ $(\mathfrak{j}^{'})^{*}$ their duals, $\mathfrak{j}^{\vee}$ $(\mathfrak{j}^{'})^{\vee}$ biduals respectively. We consider $B(.,.)$, restriction to Killing form $\mathfrak{g}^{'}$. In this work, using kernel $K$ reproducing subalgebra an op...
