The research reported here was designed to explore the relationship between aversive visual stimuli and human physiological activity in a clssical conditioning situation. Specifically, the questions asked were (1) whether homicide pictures were effective stimuli in the classical conditioning of heart rate and electrodermal activity and (2) if conditioning occurred, what would be the form of the...

We recently read the interesting article by Albayram et al (1), which concisely explained the anomalies of the vertebral arteries. We would like to present another rare case of bilateral vertebral arteries originating from the aortic arch. We incidentally diagnosed this condition on the basis of findings on a chest CT scan obtained in a patient with trauma. Our trauma chest CT protocol uses 8 2...

We explore the predictions of the standard hierarchical clustering scenario of galaxy formation, regarding the numbers and metallicities of PopIII stars likely to be found within our Galaxy today. By PopIII we shall be referring to stars formed at large redshift (z > 4), with low metallicities ([Z/Z⊙] < −2.5) and in small systems (total mass < ∼ 2×10 8M⊙) that are extremely sensitive to stellar...

beasts breathe air, walk on land, grow to gigantic size, and attack humans. Although many of these rumors were overblown, these species do pose a serious threat to invaded ecosystems and are listed as “injurious wildlife” under the Federal Lacey Act. All 28 snakehead species have the ability to breathe air--and some must breathe air or die—which allows them to survive in low oxygen conditions. ...

Cryo-electron tomography is an important research method to study the cell ultrastructure in a near native state, especially in the structural biology and cell biological fields[1]. There are a few cellular specimens that bacterial and eukaryotic cells can be examined directly by cryo-TEM [2, 3], but eukaryotic and tissue are difficult to realize for the specimen thickness. The primary method t...

abstract drought is a natural creeping event that starts due to lower moisture compared to normal condition. this phenomenon impacts all aspects of human activities. however there is neither any detailed definition nor a general and proper index for drought monitoring. in this study, fuzzy logic has been applied to deal with inherent uncertainties of the real world data. we presented a fuzzy mo...

In theoretical chemistry, molecular structure descriptors are used to compute properties of chemical compounds. Among them Wiener, Szeged and detour indices play significant roles in anticipating chemical phenomena. In the present paper, we study these topological indices with respect to their difference number.

in this paper, the hyper - zagreb index of the cartesian product, composition and corona product of graphs are computed. these corrects some errors in g. h. shirdel et al.[11].
