A new method to extract the weak phase γ is suggested by exploiting B → DK(∗) decay modes that are not Cabibbo suppressed, using the isospin relations, and ignoring the annihilation diagram as usual. Assuming 3× 108BB̄ pair at B factories, one can determine γ with 3− σ accuracy for 80 ∼ γ ∼ 150 using B → DK modes and for 50 ∼ γ ∼ 170 using B → DK∗ modes. ∗e-mail : [email protected] †e-mai...

Two different BALB/c anti-CBA (H-2k)monoclonal antibodies that bind to Kk and Dk antigens blocked Tc cell-mediated lysis of L929 (Kk, Dk) target cells, but with quite different specificity. One antibody (30R3) powerfully blocked Kk-specific lysis mediated by alloreactive or Kk-restricted Tc cells immune to ectromelia, Sendai, or influenza viruses. The other antibody (27R9) blocked these anti-Kk...

BACKGROUND The health impacts from traffic-related pollutants bring costs to society, which are often not reflected in market prices for transportation. We set out to simultaneously assess the willingness-to-pay (WTP) for traffic-related air pollution and noise effect on health, using a single measurement instrument and approach. We investigated the proportion and determinants of "protest vote/...

Ordinal regression is used to classify instances by considering ordinal relation between labels. Existing methods tend decrease the accuracy when they adhere preservation of relation. Therefore, we propose a distributional knowledge-based network (DK-net) that considers while maintaining high accuracy. DK-net focuses on image datasets. However, in industrial applications, one can find not only ...

For given nonsquare positive integers C ≡ 5(mod 8), we investigate families {Dk(X)}k∈N of integral polynomials of the form Dk(X) = AkX +2BkX+C where (Bk/2)−(Ak/2)C = 4, and show that the period length of the simple continued fraction expansion of (1+ √ Dk(X))/2 is a multiple of k, and independent ofX. For each member of the families involved, we show how to easily determine the fundamental unit...

The implications of a negligible annihilation contribution in B → DK decays are reanalyzed and are shown to lead to no new constraints on the weak phase γ from color-allowed B → DK decays. A test of negligible annihilation is proposed in B → DK (or B → DK), and an application is presented in which γ can be determined from these processes (or corresponding B → DK decays) supplemented with isospi...

T cells are critical for clearing infection and preventing tumors induced by polyoma virus, a natural murine papovavirus. We previously identified the immunodominant epitope for polyoma virus-specific CTL in tumor-resistant H-2k mice as the Dk-restricted peptide, MT389-397, derived from the polyoma middle T oncoprotein. In this study, we developed tetrameric Dk complexes containing the MT389-39...
