"Gap" junctions, the morphological correlate for low-resistance junctions, are demonstrated between some mossy fiber terminals and granule cell dendrites in some lower vertebrate cerebella (gymnotid and frog). Most of the gap junctions (GJs) seen in the gymnotid-fish cerebellum exhibit an asymmetrical configuration, the electron-opaque cytoplasmic material underlying the junction being more ext...

Abstract. We present an investigation of the disturbance history old-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stand in South Beach, Oregon, for possible growth changes due to tsunami inundation caused by 1700 CE Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquake. A high-resolution model run-up heights at assuming “L”-sized earthquake, is also presented better estimate levels several kilometers inland ...

For p > 0, let B(Bn) and Lp(Bn) respectively denote the p-Bloch and holomorphic p-Lipschitz spaces of the open unit ball Bn in C . It is known that B(Bn) and L1−p(Bn) are equal as sets when p ∈ (0, 1). We prove that these spaces are additionally norm-equivalent, thus extending known results for n = 1 and the polydisk. As an application, we generalize work by Madigan on the disk by investigating...

Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common type of worldwide, being subdivided in two types: basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous (SCC). SCC more aggressive than BCC, triggering severe health aesthetic complications. Among non-invasive therapies to treat SCC, Photodynamic therapy (PDT) 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) are frequently employed clinic. PDT uses a photosensitizing agent which prese...

Using a beam-gas arrangement, we have obtained the chemiluminescence spectra of alkali-halogen reactions at pressures less than I mtorr. The spectra in general are characterized by a broad molecular feature on which are superimposed sharp atomic alkali transitions. Under higher resolution (better than 5 A) the molecular feature consists of a single progression of regularly spaced peaks extendin...

Effect of nano-structuration and compounding of YSZ APS TBCs investigated on coating behavior in thermal shock conditions. The coatings were applied on Inconel 738 discs with three different thickness per powder. In order to harmonize the results from the samples, performance factor is defined as a criterion that in the starting of the activity has an amount of about 100 and is reduced after th...

Impairment on episodic memory (EM) has been strongly correlated with psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD). Morevover, the effects of course and progression of the illness on cognitive functioning have not been well established. The aim of the present study is to assess performance of episodic memory in BD and SZ according to their clinical stages. Subjec...
