Emotions are characterized by synchronized changes in several components of an organism. Among them, physiological variations provide energy support for the expression of approach/avoid action tendencies induced by relevant stimuli, while self-reported subjective pleasantness feelings integrate all other emotional components and are plastic. Consequently, emotional responses evoked by odors sho...

Introduction: Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) is dependent on the micro-structural properties of biological tissues, so it is possible to obtain quantitative structural information non-invasively from DWI measurements (1). However, due to hardware limitations, the diffusion times achieved in practice using conventional pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE) methods are relatively ...

In several examples of subduction zones, we compared pairs quartz veins formed either at the lower temperatures seismogenic zone (260°C or below), higher its downdip limit (∼330°C). All analyzed here are mode I cracks that contemporaneously with host-rock main stage deformation peak burial conditions. Lower-temperature show crystals euhedral shapes and growth rims, while higher-temperature cont...
