Metamorphosis can be described as the period in the life cycle of an animal in which an immature individual undergoes drastic anatomical and physiological changes to develop into an adult. Usually these transitions are accompanied by a change of habitat or behaviour. Because it is present in a large number of animal phyla, we can infer that metamorphosis is an important evolutionary and develop...

Diamond and zinc-blende photonic crystals are studied both in the purely dielectric case and in the presence of small inclusions of a low absorbing metal. It is shown that small metal inclusions can have a dramatic effect on the photonic band structure. Several complete photonic band gaps (CPBG’s) can open in the spectrum, between the 2nd-3rd, 5th-6th, and 8th-9th bands. Unlike in the purely di...

The electric organ discharge (EOD) of gymnotiform electric fish is controlled by a well-characterized neural circuit in the brainstem and spinal cord. NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) activity was previously found in phase-locking and/or rapidly firing neurons in the electromotor and electrosensory systems of Apteronotus leptorhynchus [Turner and Moroz, 1995]. These findings suggested that nitric oxi...

Artificial nanocomposite structures offer a pathway to the development of engineered materials with novel macroscopic properties. Manufacturing the composite materials in a highly efficient yet precise manner remains a challenge and self-assembly of functional nanomaterials offers an attractive solution. In this paper, shape-persistent threedimensional cage molecules have been used, for the fir...

In the nonrelativistic case I found that whenever the relation mc/e < X(α, gm) is satisfied, where α is a flux, gm is magnetic moment, and X(α, gm) is some function that is nonzero only for gm > 2 (note that gm = 2.00232 for the electron), then the matter is unstable against formation of the flux α. The result persists down to gm = 2 provided the Aharonov-Bohm potential is supplemented with a s...
