Nair, Prem K., Tianbo Li, Reshma Bhattacharjee, Xin Ye, and Hans G. Folkesson. Oxytocin-induced labor augments IL-1 -stimulated lung fluid absorption in fetal guinea pig lungs. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 289: L1029–L1038, 2005. First published August 5, 2005; doi:10.1152/ajplung.00256.2004.—We tested the hypothesis that oxytocin-induced labor augmented IL-1 -induced/ -stimulated lung fl...

Metal corrugated surfaces have the potential of enhancing optical absorption through surface plasmon (SP) excitation facilitated by light-metal interactions. The successful utilization of metal corrugation induced optical absorption can improve the response of free carrier absorption (FCA), based HEterojunction Interfacial Workfunction Internal Photoemission (HEIWIP) detectors. This article rep...

The structural changes in Pd and Pd–Ru alloys induced by the repeated absorption–desorption of hydrogen have been studied. It is found that absorption–desorption cycles produce structural changes in Pd whereas the addition of small amounts of Ru inhibits these hydrogen-induced changes. The experimental results show that bulk hydrogen absorption occurs in Pd, while hydrogen surface adsorption be...

Topology of Weyl semimetals affects sound attenuation in these materials. Most notably, the existence Berry monopoles associated with linear band crossings leads to acoustic magnetochiral dichroism: is different for opposite directions propagation. The effect within reach current experimental techniques, and, importantly, quantum mechanical origin. This should help its detection available compo...
