It was previously shown that a number of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria contain an enzyme, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase, that catalyses the cleavage of… (More)
Multiphase voltage regulator modules (VRMs) for microprocessor power delivery with coupled output inductors are discussed. Strong coupling is shown to be feasible and effective at reducing ripple if… (More)
This paper formulates the moving least-square interpolation scheme in a framework of the so-called moving least-square reproducing kernel (MLSRK) representation. In this study, the procedure of… (More)
An Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation system was developed for Artemisia annua L. Using this system a cDNA encoding farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDS placed under a CaMV 35S promoter)… (More)
Jefferson Laboratory's kW-level infrared free-electron laser utilizes a superconducting accelerator that recovers about 75% of the electron-beam power. In achieving first lasing, the accelerator… (More)
Eros is a very elongated (34 kilometers by 11 kilometers by 11 kilometers) asteroid, most of the surface of which is saturated with craters smaller than 1 kilometer in diameter. The largest crater is… (More)
A recent proposal for a background independent open string field theory is studied in detail for a class of backgrounds that correspond to general quadratic boundary interactions on the world-sheet.… (More)
Repeated seismic surveys of the Landers, California, fault zone that ruptured in the magnitude (M) 7.5 earthquake of 1992 reveal an increase in seismic velocity with time. P, S, and fault zone… (More)
