To successfully operate in a harsh environment like the Arctic Ocean, one must be able to understand and predict how that environment will evolve over different spatial and temporal scales.This is particularly challenging given the on-going and significant environmental changes that are occurring in the region.Access to the most recent environmenta
Antidepressive effect of an inward rectifier K+ channel blocker peptide, tertiapin-RQ.
Renal outer medullary K+ channel, ROMK (Kir1.1, kcnj1) is expressed in the kidney and brain, but its role in the central nervous system remains unknown.Recent studies suggested an involvement of the ROMK channel in mental diseases.Tertiapin (TPN) is a European honey bee venom peptide and is reported to selectively block the ROMK channel.Here, we ha
Non-thermal evolution of dense plasmas driven by intense x-ray fields
Abstract The advent of x-ray free-electron lasers has enabled a range of new experimental investigations into the properties of matter driven to extreme conditions via intense x-ray-matter interactions.The femtosecond timescales of these interactions lead Sausages to the creation of transient high-energy-density plasmas, where both the electrons an
Sparse neural network optimization by Simulated Annealing
The over-parameterization of neural networks and the local optimality of backpropagation algorithm have been two major problems associated with deep-learning.In order to reduce the BERBERINE 500MG redundancy of neural network parameters, the conventional approach has been to prune branches with small weights.However, this only solves the problem of
Sports Tournaments and Social Choice Theory
Sports tournaments provide a procedure for producing a champion and ranking the contestants based on game results.As such, tournaments mirror aggregation methods in social choice theory, where diverse individual 703 preferences are put together to form an overall social preference.This connection allows us a novel way of conceptualizing sports tour
