Introduction Major obstacles faced by neuroscientists in attempting to unravel the complexity of brain function include both the heterogeneity of brain tissue (with a multitude of cell types present in vivo) and the high speed of brain information processing (with behaviorally relevant millisecondscale electrical activity patterns). To address different aspects of these technical constraints, g...

Submitted for the MAR11 Meeting of The American Physical Society Bias dependence of h/e and h/2e Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in topological insulators1 PRAMEY UPADHYAYA, FAXIAN XIU, YABIN FAN, IGOR OVCHINNIKOV, KANG WANG, University of California Los Angeles, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES TEAM — Recently Aharonov-Bohm (AB) oscillations were observed in Bi2Se3 nanoribbons by Peng et al. [1...

Soil application of liquid cattle manure (LCM) (excrements plus urine, occasionally containing bedding material) can enhance plant growth and increase crop yield (Beauchamp, 1986; Culley et al., 1981; Evans et al., 1977; Kaffka & Kanneganti, 1996; Lithourgidis et al., 2007; Matsi et al., 2003; Motavalli et al., 1989; Sutton et al., 1986; Zhang et al., 2006; Zebarth et al., 1996). In most of the...

Recently, Zhang et al. proposed a location-based thresholdendorsement scheme (LTE) to thwart bogus data injection attacks. This scheme exhibits much greater filtering power than earlier symmetric schemes and results in enhanced energy savings. In this paper, we show that LTE has a significant vulnerability. We also propose an improved scheme that mitigates this weakness and thereby achieves the...

Deficient expression of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) underlies the molecular mechanism of fragile X syndrome (FXS). Traditionally, FMRP is classified as a cytoplasmic RNA-binding protein and functions as a translational repressor in the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) pathway in FXS pathogenesis. In certain contexts (Blonden et al., 2005; Feng et al., 1997; Kim et al., 20...

The SIP being an application layer protocol for signaling has been considered as the most appropriate one for multimedia applications. In order to detect some collisions and replay attacks, the SIP offers built-in authentication mechanism as per its specification, designated as HTTP digest based authentication, but study reveals that it is vulnerably susceptible to heterogeneous security issues...
