Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is an important immunosuppressive virus of chickens.
The virus is ubiquitous and, under natural conditions, chickens acquire infection by the oral …

The enzyme mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) is a major target for therapeutic
intervention to treat many human diseases, including cancer, but very little is known about the …

Ferroelectric materials have been intensively investigated for high‐performance nonvolatile
memory devices in the past decades, owing to their nonvolatile polarization characteristics. …

We have measured the inclusive b→ s γ branching ratio to be (2.32±0.57±0.35)× 10− 4,
where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. Upper and lower limits on the …

Graphite oxide (GO) samples were prepared by a simplified Brodie method. Hydroxyl, epoxide,
carboxyl, and some alkyl functional groups are present in the GO, as identified by solid-…

The new detector for data recording by the CLEO collaboration at the Cornell Electron
Storage Ring is described. This detector has been designed to optimize studying e + e − …

The early work of Black and Scholes, and Merton, made the connection between
conventional options and corporate liabilities. The standard textbooks now employ option-pricing …

No analytic solution exists for the valuation of American options written on futures contracts
and foreign currencies for which early exercise may be optimal. This article formulates the …

We have observed the decays B 0→ K*(892) 0 γ and B−→ K*(892)− γ, which are evidence
for the quark-level process b→ sγ. The average branching fraction is (4.5±1.5±0.9)× 10− 5. …

We present an indoor positioning system that measures location using disturbances of the
Earth's magnetic field caused by structural steel elements in a building. The presence of these …
