A bstract We investigate the effects of leading tadpole potentials 10D tachyon-free non-supersymmetric strings in warped products flat geometries type M p +1 × R T 10 ?p? 2 depending on a single coordinate. In absence fluxes and for < 8, there are two families these vacua orientifold disk-level potential, both involving finite internal interval. Their asymptotics surprisingly captured by tad...

The connective tissues of the tadpole undergo extensive remodeling during metamorphosis. In the resorbing tail fins of bullfrog tadpoles, there is a rapid degradation of collagen in the basement lamella coupled with dehydration and loss of the gelatinous core of the fin (1,2). The layers of the dense collagenous basement lamella are loosened, frayed, and invaded by mesenchymal cells.1 A collage...

We present several examples of T/P orbifolds with P ⊂ SU4. We compute their Hodge numbers and consider turning on discrete torsion. We then study supersymmetric compactifications of type II, heterotic, and type I strings on these orbifolds. Heterotic compactifications to D=2 have a B-field tadpole with coefficient given by that of the anomaly polynomial. In the SO32 heterotic with standard embe...

Median third eye was found to develop from transplanted pineal gland of external gill stage tadpoles in the recipient 5 toe stage tadpoles of Bufo melanostictus. Pineal gland along with a bit part of brain tissue of the donor external gill stage tadpole was cut out and transplanted into a pit made between two lateral eyes of 5 toe stage recipient tadpoles. Half of the operated tadpoles were tre...

one of the possible threats in increasing use of nanomaterials is the emergence of toxicity in humans and other animals which is discussed in nanotoxicology. in addition to toxic effects of nanomaterials themselves, different chemical precursors which are usually used in bottom-up approaches for production of nanomaterials may have secondary toxic effects in living organisms. in contrast, less ...

So what is the Tadpole Topaz and what does it have to offer? That would be a tough, rugged notebook computer with a large 15.1-inch 1400 x 1050 pixel sunlight-viewable display and enough performance to power through very demanding applications, delivering stunning graphics performance in the process. While the Topaz is compact and lightweight by military standards, that still means a 12-pound p...

We present a high-spectral-resolution and experimentally simple version of spectral interferometry using optical fibers and crossed beams, which we call SEA TADPOLE. Rather than using collinear unknown and reference pulses separated in time to yield spectral fringes-and reduced spectral resolution-as in current versions, we use time-coincident pulses crossed at a small angle to generate spatial...
