We present measurements of the transverse momentum spectra for K 0 S , Λ , Ξ − and their antiparticles in p+p collisions at √ s = 200 GeV. The extracted mid-rapidity yields and pT are in agreement with previous p + ¯ p experiments while they have smaller statistical errors. We compare the measured particle spectra and pT values to predictions from the PYTHIA leading order pQCD model (v6.221) an...

Citrate synthase from the thermoacidophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius was purified 365-fold to electrophoretic homogeneity. At 40 °C and pH 8.1 the homogeneous enzyme shows a specific activity of 73 units per mg, which corresponds to a turnover number of 44 sec-1. Citrate synthase from S. acidocaldarius shows pro-S stereospecificity, as is found with a partially purified prepara...

Caltech-UCSD Birds 200 (CUB-200) is a challenging image dataset annotated with 200 bird species. It was created to enable the study of subordinate categorization, which is not possible with other popular datasets that focus on basic level categories (such as PASCAL VOC, Caltech-101, etc). The images were downloaded from the website Flickr and filtered by workers on Amazon Mechanical Turk. Each ...

Food synergy is the concept that the non-random mixture of food constituents operates in concert for the life of the organism eaten and presumably for the life of the eater. Isolated nutrients have been extensively studied in well-designed, long-term, large randomised clinical trials, typically with null and sometimes with harmful effects. Therefore, although nutrient deficiency is a known phen...

SIDE EFFECTS: Nervousness, fine tremor of the skeletal muscle (particularly hands), peripheral vasodilatation, pa radox i ca l b ronchospasm, hypoka laem ia , hyperglycaemia, Cardiac Arrhythmias (including Supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrilliation, Extrasystoles). Salbutamol, like other sympathomimetic agents, can cause adverse effects such as drowsiness, flushing, restlessness, irrita...

ion at the b-C. Relative yields are changed as much as a factor of 7.0 at 200 K, a factor of 5.0 at 298 K, and a factor of 3.7 in the other direction at 2400 K. The strong dependence of the product ratios on the multi-structural anharmonicity factors shows that such factors play an important role in controlling branching ratios in reaction mechanism networks.

Childhood obesity is an issue of public health concern globally. This review reports on levels of overweight and obesity in Irish children and examines some aspects of their diet and lifestyle proposed to promote or protect against increasing body fatness in children. While there is still some debate with regard to the most appropriate cut-off points to use when assessing body fatness in childr...

C harles Robert Darwin was born on February 12, 1809 (the same day as President Abraham Lincoln). In 1859 Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection (1), his most important book and the one by which he has become best known to posterity. Thus, 2009 is a double anniversary: the 200th of Darwin’s birth and the sesquicentenary of Origin. Darwin is deservedly credited a...
