Strong localization of photons in certain disordered dielectric superlattices
A new mechanism for strong Anderson localization of photons in carefully prepared disordered dielectric superlattices with an everywhere real positive dielectric constant is des...
TCS: a computer program to estimate gene genealogies
Phylogenies are extremely useful tools, not only for establishing genealogical relationships among a group of organisms or their parts (e.g. genes), but also for a variety of re...
Not So Different After All: A Cross-Discipline View Of Trust
The article discusses trust theory, multidisciplinary research, and trust between organizations. The analysis of trust is based on four questions: whether scholars can agree on ...
The River Continuum Concept
From headwaters to mouth, the physical variables within a river system present a continuous gradient of physical conditions. This gradient should elicit a series of responses wi...
UFBoot2: Improving the Ultrafast Bootstrap Approximation
The standard bootstrap (SBS), despite being computationally intensive, is widely used in maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses. We recently proposed the ultrafast bootstrap a...
Presenting Characteristics, Comorbidities, and Outcomes Among 5700 Patients Hospitalized With COVID-19 in the New York City Area
This case series provides characteristics and early outcomes of sequentially hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19 in the New York City area.
Dispersion and Absorption in Dielectrics I. Alternating Current Characteristics
The dispersion and absorption of a considerable number of liquid and dielectrics are represented by the empirical formula ε*−ε∞=(ε0−ε∞)/[1+(iωτ0)1−α]. In this equation, ε* is th...
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical Summary
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) will provide the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and nonluminous matter in the universe: a photometri...
Cancer Statistics, 2009
Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the number of new cancer cases and deaths expected in the United States in the current year and compiles the most recent data on...
Free Radicals in the Physiological Control of Cell Function
At high concentrations, free radicals and radical-derived, nonradical reactive species are hazardous for living organisms and damage all major cellular constituents. At moderate...
A Conceptual Model of Service Quality and Its Implications for Future Research
The attainment of quality in products and services has become a pivotal concern of the 1980s. While quality in tangible goods has been described and measured by marketers, quali...
