Quantifying Extremely Rapid Flux Enhancements of Radiation Belt Relativistic Electrons Associated with Radial Diffusion
Previous studies have revealed a typical picture that seed electrons are transported inward under the drive of radial diffusion and then accelerated via chorus to relativistic energies. Here we show a potentially different ... -
Quantifying Search and Switching Costs in the US Auto Insurance Industry
I estimate demand for auto insurance in the presence of two types of market frictions: search and switching costs. I develop an integrated utility-maximizing model in which consumers decide over which and how many companies ... -
Quantifying the Interaction between Copper-Zinc Superoxide Dismutase (Sod1) and Its Copper Chaperone (Ccs1)
Immature copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (Sod1) is activated by its copper chaperone (Ccs1). Ccs1 delivers a single copper ion and catalyzes oxidation of an intra-subunit disulfide bond within each Sod1 monomer through a ... -
Quantifying the Rhythm of KaiB-C Interaction for In Vitro Cyanobacterial Circadian Clock
An oscillator consisting of KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC proteins comprises the core of cyanobacterial circadian clock. While one key reaction in this process-KaiC phosphorylation-has been extensively investigated and modeled, ... -
Quantitative Combination of Natural Anti-Oxidants Prevents Metabolic Syndrome by Reducing Oxidative Stress
(2015-06-26)Insulin resistance and abdominal obesity are present in the majority of people with the metabolic syndrome. Antioxidant therapy might be a useful strategy for type 2 diabetes and other insulin-resistant states. The combination ... -
A Quantitative Electroencephalography Study on Cochlear Implant-Induced Cortical Changes in Single-Sided Deafness with Tinnitus
The mechanism of tinnitus suppression after cochlear implantation (CI) in single-sided deafness (SSD) is not fully understood. In this regard, by comparing pre-and post-CI quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), we ... -
Quantitative liver-specific protein fingerprint in blood: A signature for hepatotoxicity
(2014-01-14)We discuss here a new approach to detecting hepatotoxicity by employing concentration changes of liver-specific blood proteins during disease progression. These proteins are capable of assessing the behaviors of their ... -
Quantum Mechanical Solver for Confined Heterostructure Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors
Heterostructure tunnel field-effect transistors (HTFET) are promising candidates for low-power applications in future technology nodes, as they are predicted to offer high on-currents, combined with a sub-60 mV/dec ... -
Quantum Phases of Bose-Einstein Condensates with Synthetic Spin-Orbital-Angular-Momentum Coupling
(2015-05)The experimental realization of emergent spin-orbit coupling through laser-induced Raman transitions in ultracold atoms paves the way for exploring novel superfluid physics and simulating exotic many-body phenomena. A ... -
A queueing model for PCEP (Path Computation Element Protocol)
(The University of Texas at Dallas, 2013-06-18)Path computation elements (PCE’s) are used to compute end-to-end paths across multiple areas. Multiple PCE’s may be dedicated to each area to provide sufficient path computation capacity and redundancy. An open problem is ... -

Race, Class, and Procedural Justice During Traffic Stops
(2017-05)This is a study of public perception of face to face encounters with the police during the most common type of police contact, the traffic stop. Using the latest iteration of the Police-Public Contact Survey, (ICPSR 34276), ... -
Radar and Satellite Investigations of Equatorial Evening Vertical Drifts and Spread F
(Copernicus Gesellschaft Mbh, 2015-11-11)We analyzed pre-midnight equatorial F region observations made by the 30 MHz coherent backscatter radar of Sao Luis, Brazil between August 2010 and February 2012. These measurements were processed, and used to create monthly ... -
Radial Anisotropy of the North American Upper Mantle Based on Adjoint Tomography with Usarray
(Oxford Univ Press, 2017-07-31)We use seismic data from USArray to image the upper mantle underneath the United States based on a so-called 'adjoint tomography', an iterative full waveform inversion technique. The inversion uses data from 180 regional ... -
The Radiation Belt Electron Scattering by Magnetosonic Wave: Dependence on Key Parameters
(Amer Geophysical Union, 2018-10-22)Magnetosonic (MS) waves have been found capable of creating radiation belt electron butterfly distributions in the inner magnetosphere. To investigate the physical nature of the interactions between radiation belt electrons ...
