The detection and parametrization of molecular clumps is the first step in studying them. We propose a method based on Local Density Clustering algorithm while physical parameters those are measured using Multiple Gaussian Model algorithm. One advantage applying to clump segmentation, high accuracy under different signal-to-noise levels. able deal with overlapping whose can be derived reliably....

introduction: determination of best culture medium for fertilization and development of nmri mice. material and methods: development of fertilized mature oocytes of nmri mice was studied for five days in several culture media (ksom, t6, m16, czb, g1tm ver3 and g2tm ver3) following hormone therapy with pmsg and hcg. results: the rate of fertilization after 24 hours was 97.4% in ksom, 83.5% in t6...

We present new Spitzer photometry of the Eagle Nebula (M16, containing the optical cluster NGC 6611) combined with near-infrared photometry from 2MASS. We use dust radiative transfer models, mid-infrared and near-infrared color-color analysis, and mid-infrared spectral indices to analyze point source spectral energy distributions, select candidate young stellar objects (YSOs), and constrain the...

Due to its numerous environmental extremes, the Tibetan Plateau--the world's highest plateau--is one of the most challenging areas of modern human settlement. Archaeological evidence dates the earliest settlement on the plateau to the Late Paleolithic, while previous genetic studies have traced the colonization event(s) to no earlier than the Neolithic. To explore whether the genetic continuity...

Understanding the genetic architecture of traits such as growth, body composition, and energy balance has become a primary focus for biomedical and agricultural research. The objective of this study was to map QTL in a large F(2) (n = 1181) population resulting from an intercross between the M16 and ICR lines of mice. The M16 line, developed by long-term selection for 3- to 6-week weight gain, ...

Rotationally-resolved spectra of the m16 band of 1,3,5-trioxane, centered near 1177 cm 1, have been obtained via cavity ringdown spectroscopy using a continuous-wave external-cavity quantum cascade laser and a slit expansion nozzle. 219 transitions were identified and fitted to determine the excited state rotational constants for this band. In addition to fundamental interest, these data could ...

M16=NGC 6611, the Eagle Nebula, is a well studied region of star formation and the source of a widely recognized Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image. High spatial resolution infrared observations with the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) on HST reveal the detailed morphology of two embedded star formation regions that are heavily obscured at optical wavelengths. It is ...
