Homing and repopulation of nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficient (NOD/SCID) mice by enriched human CD34(+) stem cells from cord blood, bone marrow, or mobilized peripheral blood are dependent on stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 interactions. Recently, human cord and fetal blood CD34(+)CD38(-)CXCR4(-) and CXCR4(+) cells, sorted with neutralizing anti-CXCR4 monoclonal antib...

he fuel-efficient diesel engine may face a bleak future unless engineers can dramatically reduce its particulate emissions to meet likely future regulations. Low-cost solutions may emerge if engineers can rethink engine and fuels technologies in tandem, tailoring the fuel properties to the engine design and vice versa. To help them achieve that match, Energy Laboratory researchers are formulati...

Cap analysis gene expression (CAGE) was introduced in 2003 as a method to determine transcription start sites on a genome-wide scale by isolating and sequencing short sequence tags originating from the 5′ end of RNA transcripts (1). Mapping these tags back to the reference genome identifies the transcription start sites from which the transcripts originated. CAGE relies on a cap-trapper system ...

The eigenvalues of the potentials V1(r) = A1 r + A2 r2 + A3 r3 + A4 r4 and V2(r) = B1r + B2 r2 + B3 r4 + B4 r6 and of the special cases of these potentials such as Kratzer and Goldman– Krivchenkov potentials, are obtained in N -dimensional space. The explicit dependence of these potentials in higher-dimensional space is discussed, which has not been previously covered. PACS numbers: 03.65.Fd, 0...

We study the cubic defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation on R4 with supercritical initial data. For randomized data in Hs(R4), we prove almost sure local wellposedness for 17<s<1 and scattering 57<s<1. The randomization is based a unit-scale decomposition frequency space, angular variable, – result an additional physical space. employ new probabilistic estimates linear flow data, where effe...

The lemmas in Appendix C.2 show how requirements R1–R6 are driven by group strategy-proofness and Pareto efficiency. The following examples further illustrate the role of the consistency requirements R4–R6. Requirement R4 is needed to ensure the individual strategy-proofness of the TC mechanisms. This requirement is also needed to ensure the individual strategyproofness of the TTC mechanisms, a...
