Membranes on an orbifold.
We provide an M theory interpretation of the recently discovered N=8 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory with SO(4) gauge symmetry. The theory is argued to describe two membranes moving in the orbifold R8/Z2. At level k=1 and k=2, the classical moduli space M coincides with the infrared moduli space of SO(4) and SO(5) super Yang-Mills theory, respectively. For higher Chern-Simons level, the modu...
متن کاملShining a light on an opportunistic pathogen.
The surface of our planet is subjected to dramatic changes in levels of solar radiation on a daily basis. Sunlight is the direct energy source for photosynthetic organisms and is the foundation of most of the food chains that support heterotrophs like ourselves. Not surprisingly, plants and photosynthetic microorganisms sense and respond to light in many ways. Bacterial light sensors are divers...
متن کاملShining Light on an mGlu5 Photoswitchable NAM: A Theoretical Perspective
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are important drug targets because of their involvement in several neurological diseases. Among mGluRs, mGlu5 is a particularly high-profile target because its positive or negative allosteric modulation can potentially treat schizophrenia or anxiety and chronic pain, respectively. Here, we computationally and experimentally probe the functional binding ...
متن کاملShining a light on optogenetics
O ptogenetics is relatively new and has attracted much interest since the first publications from the field in the early 2000s. Both researchers and the media are fascinated by the notions it conjures of bionic implants. Notwithstanding potential applications, the technology has quickly become an important research tool in neuroscience with potential for developing a range of novel therapeutic ...
متن کاملM(atrix) Theory on an Orbifold and Twisted Membrane M(atrix) Theory on an Orbifold and Twisted Membrane 1
M(atrix) theory on an orbifold and classical two-branes therein are studied with particular emphasis to heterotic M(atrix) theory on S1=Z2 relevant to strongly coupled heterotic and dual Type IA string theories. By analyzing orbifold condition on Chan-Paton factors, we show that three choice of gauge group are possible for heterotic M(atrix) theory: SO(2N), SO(2N + 1) or USp(2N). By examining a...
