Using the first three and a half years of observations from the Energetic Gamma Ray Telescope (EGRET) on board the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO), phase-resolved analyses are performed on the emission from the three brightest highenergy γ-ray pulsars, Crab, Geminga, and Vela. For each pulsar, it is found that there is detectable high-energy γ-ray emission above the galactic diffuse backgr...
1. Previous evidence demonstrates that closing force decreases proportionally as fiddler crab claw size increases. Larger crabs do have greater absolute closing force, but less than would be expected if claw proportions were isometric. In the Mud Fiddler Crab, Uca pugnax , this is explained by a decrease in mechanical advantage with increasing claw size. 2. We here re-measure mechanical advanta...
The new idea of increasing the luminosity of a collider with crab waist collisions and first experimental results from the DAΦNE Φ-Factory at LNF, Frascati, using this concept are presented. Consequences for the design of future factories will be discussed. An outlook to the performance reach with crab waist collisions is given, with emphasis on future B Factories. INTRODUCTION A novel collisio...
The robber crab (Birgus latro), also known as the coconut crab, is the world's largest land-living arthropod, with a weight reaching 4 kg and a length of over half a meter. Apart from the marine larval stage, this crab is fully terrestrial, and will actually drown if submerged in water. A transition from sea to land raises dramatically new demands on the sensory equipment of an animal. In olfac...
BACKGROUND This study evaluated the effect of infection control interventions on the incidence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) in a tertiary hospital over a 6-year period. METHODS Multiple interventions, including cohorting, promotion of hand hygiene, active surveillance in the intensive care units, and environmental cleaning, were implemented from 2007 through 2009 (pe...
A foraging fiddler crab can estimate how close a potential intruder is from its burrow entrance, even when the entrance in the sand is invisible to the crab. Recent work shows that, to assess this depth interval, crabs combine information from vision and path integration in an unusual manner.
Eriocheirsinensis, Portunus trituberculatus and Scylla paramamosain are important commercial culture crab species in China. Traditional factory breeding of crabs depends on Artemia nauplius. The rising price of Artemia cysts has led to the decline of the economic benefit of the crab breeding factory. Factory crab breeding has been gradually replaced by pond breeding in recent years. E. sinensis...
The frequency and distribution of barnacle (Chelonibia patula) on blue swimmer crab Portunus pelagicus off Persian Gulf Coasts were studied. A total of 545 crabs were examined and were of the same size range. The carapace width rangof crab werefrom 6.5cm to 16.5cm, carapace length from 4 to 8cm and weighed 80.5g to 220.4g. The barnacles were attached to the carapace, abdomen and walking legs. T...
Selective tidal-streaming is a model frequently used to explain how planktonic larvae invade estuaries. The ability of larvae to move vertically in the water column to selectively ride favourable currents and maintain ground gained is critical to this process. The mud crab (Scylla serrata) is a widely distributed, commercially and recreationally important portunid crab but little is known about...
BACKGROUND The Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis, is one of the most studied and economically important crustaceans in China. Its transition from a swimming to a crawling method of movement during early development, anadromous migration during growth, and catadromous migration during breeding have been attractive features for research. However, knowledge of the underlying molecular mechan...
