A sample of 99 early treated phenylketonuric children showed higher levels of behavioural deviance than 197 matched controls. For boys this excess of behavioural deviance persisted when IQ was taken into account. For phenylketonuric girls however it was restricted to those with IQs less than 70. The type of behavioural deviance shown by the boys over the whole IQ range was predominantly neuroti...

Quantum Interferences In article number 2201024, Xiangfeng Shao, Colin J. Lambert, Hao-Li Zhang, and co-workers present the significant modulation effect of double N-substitution on quantum interference (QI) in meta-phenylene ethylene oligomer molecular devices, reveal how two N-atoms synergistically modulate conductance between destructive QI constructive states. The findings this work pave a ...

We consider a two-loop contribution of Higgs-mediated penguin diagram to B(Bs → μ+μ−) at large tanβ in the MSSM, motivated by a recently proposed two-loop magnetic penguin diagrams by Chen and Geng [1]. Typically the two-loop diagram is a αs correction to the one-loop contributions. However the new contribution can dominate one-loop contributions in a region of parameter space where μ, At and A...

We use H€ uckel theory to examine interference effects on conductance of a wire when a ‘lollypop’ side-chain is bonded to it, acting as a resonance cavity. A clear signature of interference is found at these ballistic conducting systems, stronger in small systems. Gating effects are enhanced by the presence of the loop, where the electronic wavefunctions can experience large changes in phase. U...

Channel estimation plays an important role in wireless communication due to its random nature of the channel. Randomness creates the constructive or destructive fading. The combination of Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) with multiple antennas at both the base station and mobile terminal converts frequency selectivity of the channel fading into flat fading parallel sub-channels...

HAMILTON’S theory of kin selection is much misunderstood. This paper lists and refutes 12 of the commonest misunderstandings, for example: “Kin selection is a special, complex kind of natural selection, as opposed to ‘individual selection’”; “Kin selection is a form of group selection”; “All species members share the majority of their genes, so selection should favour universal altruism”, “Kin ...

A poetic inquiry on how people’s world views may unknowingly lead to divisions. This poem offers a journey from destructive invisibles such as privilege, oppression, -isms (e.g., sexism, racism, classism), and silence constructive visibles equality, dialogue, attentiveness, collaboration. The was presented during Poetry for Change in the IdeaFest at University of Victoria, Canada, part Social M...

Workplace deviance has become a growing concern for many organizations particularly in developing countries because of its negative consequences on organizational productivity. Drawing on the basis of organizational support theory, this study examined the relationship of perceived organizational support and perceived supervisor support with workplace deviance. The aim of this paper was to test ...

Principal families of periodic orbits (POs) are identiÐed and their (in)stabilities examined for collinear 2 and its isotopic variants, HeHD` and HeDH`, on an ab initio potential energy surface. Continuation/bifurcation diagrams of these periodic orbits over a range of energies reveal a number of bifurcations and the period doubling route to classical chaos. The existence of a number of POs at ...

Two-step mechanisms in the N N annihilation and their role in the OZI rule violating reactions are discussed. In particular the two meson rescattering mechanism for channel including all o -shell e ects is typically two orders of magnitude bigger than the OZI tree level expectation and explains the observed ratio =! in the annihilation at rest. The rates for the nal states including photons, ! ...
