Stationary and pulsating dissipative light bullets from a collective variable approach
2009
A collective variable approach is used to map domains of existence for (3+1) -dimensional spatiotemporal soliton solutions of a complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation. A rich variety of evolution behaviors, which include stationary and pulsating dissipative soliton dynamics, is revealed. Comparisons between the results obtained by the semianalytical approach of collective variables, and those obtained by a purely numerical approach show good agreement for a wide range of equation parameters. This also demonstrates the relevance of the semianalytical method for a systematic search of stability domains for spatiotemporal solitons, leading to a dramatic reduction of the computation tim…
X-Ray Eclipse Time Delays in 4U2129+47
2007
4U 2129+47 was discovered in the early 80's and classified as an accretion disk corona source due to its broad and partial X-ray eclipses. The 5.24 hr binary orbital period was inferred from the X-ray and optical light curve modulation, implying a late K or M spectral type companion star. The source entered a low state in 1983, during which the optical modulation disappeared and an F8 IV star was revealed, suggesting that 4U 2129+47 might be part of a triple system. The nature of 4U 2129+47 has since been investigated, but no definitive conclusion has been reached. Here, we present timing and spectral analyses of two XMM-Newton observations of this source, carried out in May and June, 2005.…
Transcriptomic Analysis of the Pistacia vera (L.) Fruits Enable the Identification of Genes and Hormone-Related Gene Linked to Inflorescence Bud Absc…
2021
Pistacia vera (L.) is an alternate bearing species. The tree produces axillary inflorescence buds every year. Still, they abscise in “ON” overloaded shoots, causing a limited production in the following “OFF” year, causing a significant and unfavorable production fluctuation. In this work, we carried out de novo discovery and transcriptomic analysis in fruits of “ON” and “OFF” shoots of the cultivar Bianca. We also investigated whether the fruit signaling pathway and hormone biosynthesis directly or indirectly linked to the premature fall of the inflorescence buds causing alternate bearing. We identified 1536 differentially expressed genes (DE…
Fast, non-toxic, and inexpensive n-butanol preparation of recombinant plasmids
2000
Various commercial and non-commercial plasmid preparation protocols are currently available. However, the kits are expensive and many of the protocols contain toxic chemicals. Here we present a novel, optimized and, therefore, very advantageous plasmid preparation protocol using n-butanol. The preparation can be performed quickly and no toxic chemicals are used, at overall costs of about one cent per plasmid preparation.Atualmente vários protocolos comerciais e não comerciais para preparação de plasmídeos estão disponíveis. Contudo, os kits são caros e muitos dos protocolos contêm substâncias químicas tóxicas. Apresentamos neste trabalho um novo, otimizado e portanto muito vantajoso protoco…
The Essential Thrombocythemia in 2020: What We Know and Where We Still Have to Dig Deep
2020
The Essential Thrombocythemia is a Chronic Philadelphia-negative Myeloproliferative Neoplasm characterized by a survival curve that is only slightly worse than that of age- and sex-adjusted healthy population. The criteria for diagnosis were reviewed in 2016 by WHO. The incidence varies from 0.2 to 2.5:100 000 people per year, with a prevalence of 38 to 57 cases per 100 000 people. The main characteristics of ET are the marked thrombocytosis and the high frequency of thrombosis. The spectrum of symptoms is quite wide, but fatigue results to be the most frequent. Thrombosis is frequently observed, often occurring before or at the time of diagnosis. The classification of thrombotic risk has …
Applying Artificial Intelligence Methods to Detect and Classify Fish Calls from the Northern Gulf of Mexico

Passive acoustic monitoring is a method that is commonly used to collect long-term data on soniferous animal presence and abundance. However, these large datasets require substantial effort for manual analysis
"Oszukańcze wybory". Środowiska polskiej emigracji politycznej wobec wyborów do Sejmu Ustawodawczego w 1947 roku
2017
The article presents the attitude of Polish political emigration towards first parliamentary election held in Poland after World War II. The election caused discussions in emigration press. The Polish government in exile did not hoped for any change of political situation in country after elections conducted under communist rule. Most of the political parties in exile took similar position. In the opinion of the emigrants a truly free election could be conducted under international supervision and after the withdrawal of Soviet troops and removal from power dominated by communists Provisional Government of National Unity.
Nación, emoción y fantasía. La España melodramática de Ayguals de Izco = Nation, Emotion and Fantasy. Ayguals de Izco's Melodramatic Spain
2017
El artículo analiza las novelas por entregas de Wenceslao Ayguals de Izco (1801-1873) desde su dimensión melodramática para señalas de qué modo participaron en la creación de los imaginarios, las narrativas sociales y políticas y la "comunidad emocional" del radicalismo democrático español de mediados del siglo XIX. Posteriormente examino una serie de "fantasías nacionales" que se repiten con insistencia en estas novelas melodramáticas: la unión matrimonial como metáfora de la plenitud nacional, el mártir por la patria y el "ángel de salvación" que socorre a los desfavorecidos. Todas estas fantasías se fundan en la diferencia sexual (al tiempo que la construyen) y permiten la identificación…
Control of dataset bias in combined Affymetrix cohorts of triple negative breast cancer
2014
AbstractHeterogenous subtypes of breast cancer need to be analyzed separately. Pooling of datasets can provide reasonable sample sizes but dataset bias is an important concern. We assembled a combined dataset of 579 Affymetrix microarrays from triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) series GSE31519. We developed a method for selecting comparable datasets and to control for the amount of dataset bias of individual probesets.
Vivir como cristianos y pagar como moros: genealogía medieval de la servidumbre morisca en el reino de Valencia
2009
La conversión forzosa de los musulmanes del reino de Valencia, decretada en 1526, no implicó una igualación social entre cristianos «viejos» y «nuevos», ya que se mantuvo la diferencia de estatus que había existido anteriormente. El artículo examina los tres aspectos fundamentales del contenido de dicha diferencia: la intensidad de las rentas soportadas, la imposición de servicios obligatorios y las trabas a la migración interior y exterior; establece sus orígenes en las condiciones de dominación impuestas a la población infiel inmediatamente después de la conquista del siglo XIII, y traza los grandes rasgos de su evolución a lo largo de la Baja Edad Media. Se arguye que esta población estu…
