Recent findings suggest that sleep might serve a role in emotional coping. However, most findings are based on subjective reports of sleep quality, while the relation with underlying sleep physiology is still largely unknown. In this study, the impact of an emotionally distressing experience on the EEG correlates of sleep was assessed. In addition, the association between sleep physiological pa...

We study two galaxies samples selected in ultraviolet (UV) and in far infrared (FIR) for which the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) from the far UV (FUV) to the FIR are available. We compare the observed SEDs to modelled SEDs with several star formation histories (SFHs; decaying star formation rate plus burst) and dust attenuation laws (power law + 2175Å bump). The Bayesian method allows to...

ABSTRACT: Frequent occurrence of seismic activities has drawn attention of various researchers, cutting across science and engineering discipline. The domain of earthquake geotechnical engineering has extended from determination of attenuation of seismic wave to providing suitable foundation under liquefied and unliquefied soil conditions. The seismic data can be fully intrepreated by use of se...

Although is not a major error source at C-band, attenuation may degrade the radar measurement to a considerable degree in situations like a precipitation event in the radar shadow of a strong convective cell, or may affect precipitation accumulation estimates at distances far from the radar site. For C-band radars, attenuation can be corrected using different methods depending on the type of me...

For airand spaceborne weather radars, which typically operate at frequencies of 10 GHz and above, attenuation correction is usually an essential part of any rain estimation procedure. For ground-based radars, where the maximum range within the precipitation is usually much greater than that from airor spaceborne radars, attenuation correction becomes increasingly important at frequencies above ...

the sporozoites of theileria annulata invade bovine mhc ii cells, where they differentiate into schizonts. the later can immortalize and induce fundamental changes in their host cells. live attenuated vaccine is an important way of controlling t. annulata infection of cattle. production is by prolonged cultivation of macroschizont-infected cells. the mechanisms underlying this transformation ar...

The dust attenuation for a sample of ∼10000 local (z . 0.1) star forming galaxies is constrained as a function of their physical properties. We utilize aperture-matched multi-wavelength data available from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX ) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to ensure that regions of comparable size in each galaxy are being analyzed. We follow the method of Calzetti et...

SPECT detects γ-rays from administered radiopharmaceutical within the patient body. γ-rays pass through different tissues before reaching detectors and are attenuated. Attenuation can cause artifacts; therefore different methods are used to minimize attenuation effects. In our study efficacy of Chang method was evaluated for attenuation purpose, using a custom made heart phantom. Due to d...
