Revealing how goldfish defy anoxia.
Just a few rare vertebrates – three carp relatives and two species of turtles – show the astonishing capacity to survive without any oxygen for days, while all others die within minutes (Bickler and Buck, 2007; Nilsson, 2010). By the end of the 1970s, the ability of these anaerobic champions had already been known for decades, but the physiological mechanisms underlying their survival were not ...
متن کاملStill seeking for an explanation of the Sequential Compatibility Effect
Título: En busca de una explicación del Efecto Secuencial de Compatibilidad. Resumen: Se estudia la modulación del Efecto de Compatibilidad (EC) según la compatibilidad del ensayo previo (Efecto Secuencial de Compatibilidad, ESC) en tres tipos de tareas atencionales, flancos verbal, flancos numérico y Stroop espacial, modeladas a partir de Gratton et al., (1992). Las tareas de flancos y Stroop ...
متن کاملDo Quasars Lens Quasars?
If the unexpectedly high frequency of quasar pairs with very different component redshifts is due to the lensing of a population of background quasars by the foreground quasar, typical lens masses must be ∼ 10M⊙ and the sum of all such quasar lenses would have to contain ∼ 0.005 times the closure density of the Universe. It then seems plausible that a very high fraction of all ∼ 10M⊙ gravitatio...
متن کاملDisparate Mg II Absorption Statistics Towards Quasars and Gamma-Ray Bursts: A Possible Explanation
We examine the recent report by Prochter et al. that gamma-ray burst (GRB) sight lines have a much higher incidence of strong Mg II absorption than quasar sight lines. We propose that the discrepancy is due to the different beam sizes of GRBs and quasars, and that the intervening Mg II systems are clumpy with the dense part of each cloudlet of a similar size as the quasars, i.e. . 10 cm, but bi...
متن کاملNext Generation ACOs Must Defy FFS Gravity.
coming up with the ACO idea, is director of a health policy institute at Dartmouth’s medical school. But the medical center pulled out of the Pioneer program last year because of issues with CMS’s quarterly benchmarking methodology, and Dartmouth-Hitchcock’s leadership won’t commit to Next Gen until it knows more about the benchmarks it will be measured against. “We’ll see when we get to that p...
