1 Goal of paper This paper takes a specific objective: to identify and analyze the methodological and conceptual conditions that are involved in postulating causal relations among meso-historical entities, structures, and processes. What is the nature of the causal relations among structures and entities that make up the social world? What sorts of mechanisms are available to substantiate causa...

The reaction at room temperature of an aromatic aldehyde with pyrrole in the presence of Iodine, acetic acid catalyzed of meso-substituted dipyrromethane. The mixture was ground together in a mortar with a pestle at room temperature for short reaction time and easy operation under at room temperature. The meso substituted dipyrromethane is purified by crystallization and column chromatography o...

This paper presents a Kalman filter designed for a cutting force measurement system. The cutting force measurement system is used to measure cutting forces for meso-milling applications. Due to the small magnitude of the cutting forces generated from the meso-milling process, the measurement results are easily distorted by the noise that exists in the measurement system. The object of the Kalma...

Two new paired domain genes of Drosophila, Pox meso and Pox neuro, are described. In contrast to the previously isolated paired domain genes, paired and gooseberry, which contain both a paired and a homeo-domain (PHox genes), Pox meso and Pox neuro possess no homeodomain. Evidence suggesting that the new genes encode tissue-specific transcriptional factors and belong to the same regulatory casc...

Fluorescence properties of meso-tetrafurylporphyrins with N4, N3S and N2S2 porphyrin cores are studied by both steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques and compared with the corresponding meso-tetraarylporphyrins. The study shows that the replacement of six-membered aryl groups with five-membered furyl groups at meso-positions alter the fluorescence properties considerably, as ref...

Oligoureas (up to n=6) of meso cyclohexane-1,2-diamine were synthesized by chain extension with an enzymatically desymmetrized monomer 2. Despite being achiral, the meso oligomers adopt chiral canonical 2.5-helical conformations, the equally populated enantiomeric screw-sense conformers of which are in slow exchange on the NMR timescale, with a barrier to screw-sense inversion of about 70 kJ mo...

This study looked at how the Multiple Elevation Scanning Option for the Supplemental Adaptive Intra-Volume Low-Level Scan (MESO-SAILS) radar scanning regime performed with respect to tornadic debris signature (TDS) detection during the 2016 tornado season in the Iowa Region. Results were compared to TDS distribution research done before the implementation of MESOSAILS. Overall, it was found tha...

A Ni/meso-MgO catalyst with high surface area and small Ni nanoparticles was synthesized and investigated for hydrogen production by steam reforming of phenol for the first time. Compared to conventional Ni/MgO, the Ni/meso-MgO catalyst showed higher catalytic activity and stability. X-ray Diffraction, N2 adsorption, hydrogen temperature programmed reduction, transmission electron microscopy an...

Serratia marcescens strain ATCC 14041 was found to be an efficient meso-2,3-butanediol (meso-2,3-BD) producer from glucose and sucrose. Here we present a 5.0-Mb assembly of its genome. We have annotated 4 coding sequences (CDSs) for meso-2,3-BD fermentation and 2 complete operons including 6 CDSs for sucrose utilization.
