Humans have the abilities to perceive, produce, and synchronize with a musical beat, yet there are widespread individual differences. To investigate these abilities and to determine if a dissociation between beat perception and production exists, we developed the Harvard Beat Assessment Test (H-BAT), a new battery that assesses beat perception and production abilities. H-BAT consists of four su...

Two different possible mechanisms of water gas shift reaction including formate and redox mechanisms on the Ag5 cluster were investigated using DFT computations. All the elementary steps involved in both mechanisms were considered. It was observed that dissociation of H2Oads and OHads, as well as formation of CO2(ads), required activation e...

objective: the present study aimed to clarify dissociative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia and its association with negative and positive symptom of schizophrenia. methods: based on the 4th edition of diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (dsm-iv) criteria, 80 schizophrenic subjects were randomly selected from patients who referred to the clinics of psychiatry hospital i...

In this communication, a thermodynamic model is presented to predict the dissociation conditions of structure H (sH) clathrate hydrates with methane as help gas. This approach is an extension of the Klauda and Sandler fugacity model (2000) for prediction of phase boundaries of sI and sII clathrate hydrates. The phase behavior of the water and hydrocarbon system is modeled using the Peng-Robinso...
