The quadruple system PG 1115+080 is the second gravitational lens with a reported measurement of the Hubble constant. In addition to the primary lens, three nearby galaxies are believed to contribute significantly to the lensing potential. In this letter we report accurate redshifts for all four galaxies and show that they belong to a single group at zd = 0.311. This group has very similar prop...

Species of Tortricidae whose larvae feed on acacia are listed, including five new species: Hystrichophora bussei Agassiz, Endotera cyaneana Agassiz, Paraeccopsis variegana Agassiz & Aarvik, Coniostola flavitinctana Agassiz & Aarvik, and C. rufitinctana Agassiz & Aarvik. Six additional species related to the aforementioned, whose life histories are not known, also are described: Paraeccopsis tan...

The Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway defends animal genomes against the harmful consequences of transposable element (TE) infection by imposing small-RNA-mediated silencing. Because silencing is targeted by TE-derived piRNAs, piRNA production is posited to be central to the evolution of genome defense. We harnessed genomic data sets from Drosophila melanogaster, including genome-wide measur...

After stroke, penumbral salvage determines clinical recovery. However, the rescued penumbra may be affected by selective neuronal loss, as documented both histopathologically in animals and using the validated in vivo positron emission tomography marker C-flumazenil in humans. However, whether the non-infarcted penumbra is capable of neuronal activation, and how selective neuronal loss may inte...

the complexation reactions between mg2+, ca2+, sr2+ and ba2+ metal cations with 15-crown-5 (15c5) were studied in acetonitrile (an)-methanol (meoh) binary mixtures at different temperatures using conductometric method. 15c54 forms 1:1 complexes with mg2+, ca2+ and sr2+ cations in solutions. the ma2+ cation forms a 2:1 complex (ratio of lighand to cation) in solutions. a linear relation was obse...

We correct a minor point in section 3.2 of “Relaxion Fluctuations (Self-stopping Relaxion) and Overview Relaxion Stopping Mechanisms”, JHEP 05 (2020) 080. Furthermore, we clarify the origin equation (4.25). Finally, add some plots that are interest.
