BACKGROUND Interactions between the immune response and brain functions such as olfactory, auditory, and visual sensations are likely. This study investigated the effect of sounds on alloimmune responses in a murine model of cardiac allograft transplantation. METHODS Naïve CBA mice (H2k) underwent transplantation of a C57BL/6 (B6, H2b) heart and were exposed to one of three types of music--op...

Hmyria’s vocal and figurative sphere, which allowed us explore principles interpretive approaches; synthesis, contributes comprehension singer’s essential views working with character. I...

Local and more and more global musical structure is analyzed from audio time series by time-series-event analysis with the aim of automatic sheet music production and comparison of singers. Note events are determined and classified based on local spectra, and rules of bar events are identified based on accentuation events related to local energy. In order to compare the performances of differen...

Singers performing in popular styles of music mostly rely on feedback provided by monitor loudspeakers on the stage. The highest sound level that these loudspeakers can provide without feedback noise is often too low to be heard over the ambient sound level on the stage. Long-term-average spectra of some orchestral accompaniments typically used in pop music are compared with those of classical ...

The OPERA experiment has been designed to observe an unambiguous signal of νμ → ντ oscillation in the parameter region indicated by previous experiments in the atmospheric sector. It is based on the nuclear emulsion technique to directly observe among the neutrino interaction products the track of a τ lepton produced by a ντ appeared in a νμ beam. The OPERA detector is presently under construct...
