Comparing Parietal Quantity-Processing Mechanisms between Humans and Macaques
Quantity processing studies typically assume functional homology between regions within macaque and human intraparietal sulcus (IPS), where apparently similar locations respond to broadly similar tasks. However, macaque single cell neurophysiology is difficult to compare to human functional magnetic resonance imaging (...

Time-Dependent Spatial Amplitude Patterns of Harmonic Tremor at Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica: Seismic-Wave Interferences?
Seismograms recorded at the receivers of a small‐aperture seismic array usually display very similar waveforms and amplitudes, as a consequence of their close proximity. During the analysis of the volcanic tremor wave field at Arenal volcano, Costa Rica, we detected significant differences in the amplitudes of harmonic...

The unfolded protein response and its role in intestinal homeostasis and inflammation
The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a signaling pathway from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the nucleus that protects cells from the stress caused by misfolded or unfolded proteins [1, 2]. As such, ER stress is an ongoing challenge for all cells given the central biologic importance of secretion as part of normal...

Two-proton decay of12O and its isobaric analog state in12N
Following neutron knockout from an ${}^{13}$O beam, ${}^{12}$O fragments were created and the three decay products following two-proton decay were detected. A new ground-state mass was determined by the invariant mass method implying a decay kinetic energy of 1.638(24) MeV, and the width was found to be less than 72 ke...

Adaptive Soft Frequency Reuse Scheme for Wireless Cellular Networks
Spectrum scarcity and intercell interference (ICI) are two fundamental limiting factors in wireless cellular systems. Soft frequency reuse (SFR) has been proposed as an effective way to manage the spectrum and reduce ICI in cellular systems. In a static SFR scheme, the allocations of transmit power or subcarriers in ea...
