Photon strength functions in Gd isotopes studied from radiative capture of resonance neutrons

The experimental spectra of γ rays following radiative neutron capture on isolated resonances of stable 152,154−158Gd targets were measured by the DANCE calorimeter installed at the Los Alamos Neutron Scattering Center in New Mexico, USA. These spectra were analyzed within the extreme statistical model to get new information on the photon strength functions. Special emphasis was put on study of...

On Functions of Strength

Define a subset S ~ P(X) to be independent if and only if {z~[BC S} is a linearly independent subset of V. This clearly induces a matroid structure on P(X). This matroid has been studied in connection with many problems in the theory of designs or extremal problems for families of finite sets. In fact many interesting inequalities are proved by showing that certain families of subsets of X corr...

Multi-Faceted Post-Transcriptional Functions of HIV-1 Rev

Post-transcriptional regulation of HIV-1 gene expression is largely governed by the activities of the viral Rev protein. In this minireview, the multiple post-transcriptional activities of Rev in the export of partially spliced and unspliced HIV-1 RNAs from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, in the translation of HIV-1 transcripts, and in the packaging of viral genomic RNAs are reviewed in brief.

Radiative cooling functions for primordial molecules

Cooling of primordial gas plays a crucial role in the birth of the first structures in our Universe. Due to the low fractional abundance of molecular species at high redshifts, spontaneous emission rather than collisions represents the most efficient way to cool the pristine plasma. In the present work, radiative cooling functions are evaluated for the diatomic species HD, HD+, HeH+, LiH and Li...
