We discuss the rescattering effects in decays B → π +K. The picture we take is very simple: first, B decay into K ∗ ρ, then K∗ and ρ go to kaon and pion by exchanging a pion. We find a up to ten percent CP violation asymmetry rate. We also discuss its correction to the constraint of angle γ proposed recently.

Résumé Détection immunologique d'antigènes provenant de nématodes à la surface du bois Des antlgenes provenant de Bursaphelenchus xylophilus et B. mucronatus ont été détectés à la surface d'une tranche de Pinus sylvesl11s écorcée et séchée au four. Ces antigénes ont été examinés à l'aide d'un anticorps polyclonal dirigé contre B. xylophilus. L'anticorps peut détecter les protéines du nématode à...

We present a succinct representation of a set of n points on an n × n grid using n lg n + o(n lg n) bits to support orthogonal range counting in O(lg n/ lg lg n) time, and range reporting in O(k lg n/ lg lg n) time, where k is the size of the output. This achieves an improvement on query time by a factor of lg lg n upon the previous result of Mäkinen and Navarro [1], while using essentially the...

PURPOSE Lymphangiogenesis (LG) accompanies many corneal diseases after inflammatory, infectious, or chemical insults and is a primary mediator of transplant rejection. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is a time window for therapeutic intervention of corneal LG and whether a combined blockade of VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 effectively suppresses early-, middle-, or late-stage L...

Maternal care in mammals is the prevailing environmental influence during perinatal development. The adult rat offspring of mothers exhibiting increased levels of pup licking/grooming (LG; High LG mothers), compared to those reared by Low LG dams, show increased hippocampal glucocorticoid receptor expression, complex dendritic tree structure, and an enhanced capacity for synaptic potentiation. ...

PURPOSE Anti-oxidation and exocytosis are important for maintaining exocrine tissue homeostasis. During aging, functional and structural alterations occur in the lacrimal gland (LG), including oxidative damage to proteins, lipids, and DNA. The aims of the present study were to determine in the aging LG: a) the effects of aging on LG structure and secretory activity and b) changes in the express...

A large inter-individual variation is seen in muscle fascicle length of the athletes but the reasons for this phenomenon are unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine whether genetic factors contribute to the variances in muscle architectural characteristics. Nine monozygous twin pairs (3 males and 6 females), mean age 23 years (range 17-40) were studied. Fascicle length, pennation an...

It is necessary to understand the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of food-grade delivery systems, such as β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) nanoparticles, for the application of bioactive compounds to functional foods. The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationships between the physicochemical properties of β-lg nanoparticles, such as particle size and zeta-potential value, and their c...

Rat dams show natural variations in maternal care, licking and grooming (LG), that are associated with distinct behavioral and neural phenotypes in offspring. However, there has been limited research on the effects of differences in LG received by female pups and of variations in maternal care within the litter. Here, we investigated LG received by measuring active maternal care after pup retri...

In this paper we establish an equivalence between the category of graded D-branes of type B in Landau-Ginzburg models with homogeneous superpotential W and triangulated category of singularities of the fiber of W over zero. We also proved that the category of graded D-branes of type B in such LG-models is connected by a fully faithful functor with the derived category of coherent sheaves on the...
