Apoptosis proteins have a central role in the development and homeostasis of an organism. These proteins are very important for understanding the mechanism of programmed cell death, and their function is related to their types. According to the classification scheme by Zhou and Doctor (2003), the apoptosis proteins are categorized into the following four types: (1) cytoplasmic protein; (2) plas...

We present a semi–analytic treatment of galactic winds within high resolution, large scale cosmological N–body simulations of a ΛCDM Universe. The evolution of winds is investigated by following the expansion of supernova driven supershells around the several hundred thousand galaxies that form in an approximately spherical region of space with diameter 52h−1 Mpc and mean density close to the m...

Winds from accretion disks driven by the radiation and magnetocentrifugal force. ABSTRACT We study the two-dimensional, time-dependent hydrodynamics of radiation-driven winds from luminous accretion disks threaded by a strong, large-scale, ordered magnetic field. The radiation force is mediated primarily by spectral lines and is calculated using a generalized multidimensional formulation of the...

Background: The purpose of this study was to describe advertisements of children's entertainment products in a popular magazine, Parents, and to determine if they illustrated behavior that was physically active or sedentary. Methods: The sample was comprised of Parents magazines (January 2010 to December 2015). Coding involved determining if the advertisement was promoting sedentary or active b...

Two unusual circulation patterns were measured in the Ria of Pontevedra (NW Spain). The first one showed a positive two layered tidal pattern with water leaving the estuary through surface layers and entering it through the bottom ones. This unusual pattern is observed to depend on the particular summer stratification conditions, caused by upwelling events and solar radiation, and on the presen...
