Momentum recoil in the relativistic two-body problem: Higher-order tails

In the description of the relativistic two-body interaction, together with the effects of energy and angular momentum losses due to the emission of gravitational radiation, one has to take into account also the loss of linear momentum, which is responsible for the recoil of the center-of-mass of…

CCl4 distribution derived from MIPAS ESA v7 data: intercomparisons, trend, and lifetime estimation

Atmospheric emissions of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) are regulated by the Montreal Protocol due to its role as a strong ozone-depleting substance. The molecule has been the subject of recent increased interest as a consequence of the so-called "mystery of CCl4", the discrepancy between atmospheric…

Tidal indicators in the spacetime of a rotating deformed mass

Tidal indicators are commonly associated with the electric and magnetic parts of the Riemann tensor (and its covariant derivatives) with respect to a given family of observers in a given spacetime. Recently, observer-dependent tidal effects have been extensively investigated with respect to a…

Matrix recursive expressions of the DFT of even and odd complex sequences

The discrete Fourier transform of even complex sequences involves, in matrix formulation, a cosine matrix and, in the same way, the discrete Fourier transform of odd complex sequences is related with a sine matrix. Using structural characteristics of the two matrices, whose order is half the length…

A Stk4 -Foxp3-p65 transcriptional complex promotes Treg cell activation and homeostasis.

The molecular programs involved in regulatory T (Treg) cell activation and homeostasis remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that T cell receptor (TCR) signaling in Treg cells induces the nuclear translocation of serine/threonine kinase 4 (Stk4), leading to the formation of an Stk4-NF-?B…

Validation of community robustness

The large amount of work on community detection and its applications leaves unaddressed one important question: the statistical validation of the results. A methodology is presented that is able to clearly detect if the community structure found by some algorithms is statistically significant or is…

Axially-homogeneous Rayleigh-Benard convection in a cylindrical cell

Previous numerical studies have shown that the 'ultimate regime of thermal convection' can be attained in a Rayleigh-Bénard cell when the kinetic and thermal boundary layers are eliminated by replacing both lateral and horizontal walls with periodic boundary conditions (homogeneous Rayleigh-Bénard…

Approximation by Gamma-convergence of a curvature-depending functional in visual reconstruction

In recent years a number of variational models related to reconstruction problems in computer vision have been proposed.
