Parole outcomes for California Department of Corrections parolees who had voluntarily learned the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique while incarcerated at Folsom Prison, Deuel Vocational Institution, and San Quentin Prison in California were compared to parole outcomes for nonmeditating parolees matched for offense, prior commitment record, age, ethnic group, institution, and parole year....

Thermal denaturation of protonated polynucleotides is accompanied by a change in protonation [l-5] . The thermal transition at a given pH can thus be directly related to the pk’ of the proton-induced structural transition at a given temperature. For poly (A’).poly (A+) a strict relationship has been shown to hold over a large range of conditions [4-61. In fig. 1 the results in the literature an...

We present measurements of Z to heavy-quark coupling electroweak parameters, Rb, Rc, and parity-violation parameter Ac, from SLD. The measurements are based on approximately 550k hadronic Z events collected in 1993-98. Obtained preliminary results of Rb and Rc measurements are Rb = 0:2159 0:0014 0:0014 and Rc = 0:1685 0:0047 0:0043. In the Ac measurement, we use four methods to determine the in...

Context. Galaxy evolution scenarios predict that the feedback of star formation and nuclear activity (AGN) can drive the transformation of gas-rich spiral mergers into (ultra) luminous infrared galaxies and, eventually, lead to the build-up of QSO/elliptical hosts. Aims. We study the role that star formation and AGN feedback have in launching and maintaining the molecular outflows in two starbu...

The purpose of this investigation was to examine the phase relations of action potentials of single cells in CA1 to the rhythmical slow waves induced by eserine in the rabbit. All animals had an intercollicular decerebration so only structures rostra1 to the cut contributed to the results obtained. Spikeslow wave phase patterns were compared with a random model using the x3 test. Nonrandom patt...
