We present the results of a Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 F555W and F814W survey of 69 dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs) in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters and Leo Group. The V − I colors of the dE globular clusters, nuclei, and underlying field star populations are used to trace the dE star-formation histories. We find that the dE globular cluster candidates are as blue as the metal-poor globular c...

The current study examines the technical inefficiency of Indonesian manufacturing firms and its key determinants. Extending previous research that mainly focuses on in a specific industry, groups into nine industrial clusters estimates them separately to find variety results among clusters. stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) method is applied estimate score determinants 5,848 for five years (29...

CC-1065 is a potent antitumor antibiotic produced by Streptomyces zelensis. The drug binds covalently through N-3 of adenine and lies within the minor groove of DNA. Previous studies indicated that CC-1065 reacted with adenine in DNA to yield a thermally labile product that could be used to reveal its sequence specificity. These studies also provided insight into a DNA sequence (5'-CGGAGTTAGGGG...

OBJECTIVE To construct an empirical classification of patients with shoulder complaints, and then to investigate the relationship between the empirical classification and the setting in which the patients were recruited, their demographic and clinical characteristics, and the original diagnostic categories. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING A latent class analysis was performed on the combined data of...

This article gives you proof that bimetallic transition metal clusters with the difference in electronegativity are better catalysts than monoatomic one. To prove this fact, a study of ethylene adsorption on bimetallic clusters vanadium-nickel VnNim (2≤n+m≤6) has been demonstrated. Our result shows that hardness has a quite good linear correlation with the non-Lewis of VnNi (n=1-5) cluster (R2=...

Swahili is an increasingly important language in China with its utility the Belt and Road Initiative. A number of previous studies third acquisition (TLA) applied concept crosslinguistic influence (CLI), but there are scant focusing on possible phonetic CLI Swahili. The present study investigates from Mandarin as L1 English L2 L3 Participants were 35 learners possessing target sequence. In this...

Flood protection is crucial for making socioeconomic policies due to the high losses of extreme floods. So far, synchronous occurrences flood events have not been deeply investigated. In this paper, multivariate analysis was implemented reveal interconnection between these floods in spatiotemporal resolution. The discharge measurements 46 gauges with a continuous daily time series 55 years were...

Clusters play important role for understanding and transferring microscopic to macroscopic properties.Geometric and electron properties of Small nickel clusters up to the tetramer has been investigated by Density Functional Theory (DFT). Raising the number of nickel clusters atoms were indicated decreasing the average equilibrium (Ni-Ni) distance of atoms and also the binding energy of per atom...

Abstract This paper examined the role of male partners in modern contraceptive use by women across clusters South Africa. Its main objective was threefold. First, present sought to test whether African married women’s is related influence their husbands or partners. Second, it similar within clusters. Third, tested group effects are spatially dependent among neighbouring It used recent Demograp...

background recent studies suggest that rare codon clusters are functionally important for protein activity. methods here, for the first time we analyzed and reported rare codon clusters in hepatitis c virus (hcv) genome and then identified the location of these rare codon clusters in the structure of hcv protein. this analysis was performed using the sherlocc program that detects statistically ...
