The Cold Spot, with an unusually cold region surrounded by a hot ring, is statistically significant anomaly in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) sky. In this work we assess whether different sets of multiple subvoids based on 2dF-VST ATLAS Spot galaxy redshift survey or collapsing texture could have produced such through simultaneous search for their gravitational and lensing signatures Pla...

carnation (dianthus caryophyllus) can be infected by several viruses that some are specific to carnation flowers. vegetative propagation of carnation, can easily disperse viruses by infectied cuttings. during the year 2007, viral-like symptoms were observed on carnation in mahallat greenhouses. 142 suspected samples from glass houses, with symptoms of reddish- purple flecks and spots on leaves,...

We observed live fission yeast expressing pairs of functional fluorescent fusion proteins to test the popular model that the cytokinetic contractile ring assembles from a single myosin II progenitor or a Cdc12p-Cdc15p spot. Under our conditions, the anillin-like protein Mid1p establishes a broad band of small dots or nodes in the cortex near the nucleus. These nodes mature by the addition of co...

Abstract. Two types of quantum point contacts have been studied by low temperature scanning gate microscopy. In addition to the usual bright spot, which corresponds to a large conductance change at the constriction, ring structures are observed near the center of the quantum point contact. The ring diameter shrinks with increasing base conductance when the side gate voltage is changed. The ring...

A phenomenological theory of exciton condensation in conditions of inhomogeneous excitation is proposed. The theory is applied to the study of the development of an exciton luminescence ring and the ring fragmentation at macroscopical distances from the central excitation spot in coupled quantum wells. The transition between the fragmented and the continuous ring is considered. Assuming a defec...

The theory is applied to the study of the development of an exciton luminescence ring and the ring fragmentation at macroscopical distances from the central excitation spot in coupled quantum wells.

Integrated satellite-terrestrial networks can improve both the service coverage and spectral efficiency in spot-beam-based mobile satellite service system (MSS). In an integrated satellite-terrestrial network, MSS frequency is reused in both satellite spot beams and complementary ground component (CGC). Due to reuse of frequency, co-channel interference is present in both intra-component (betwe...

in this note we introduce the notion of weak mccoy rings as a generalization of mccoy rings, and investigate their properties. also we show that, if is a semi-commutative ring, then is weak mccoy if and only if is weak mccoy.

Sperm motility is an important concept in fertility research. To this end, single spot laser tweezers have been used to quantitatively analyze the motility of individual sperm. However, this method is limited with throughput (single sperm per spot), lacks the ability of in-situ sorting based on motility and chemotaxis, requires high laser power (hundreds of milliWatts) and can not be used to dy...
