Alignment in BiologyAlignment of particles in a system is a phenomenon that can be observed in many contexts. In biology, this ranges from the large scale e.g. schools of fish (Herbert-Read et al.2011), down to the microscopic scale e.g. cells and bacteria (Balagam and Igoshin2015; D...
However, one of the drawbacks of "closed" microfluidics is the challenge to process objects likely to induce clogging or that are simply too large to fit in a channel network, such as tissue sections, large cells and particles. Open microfluidic systems overcome some of these problems by using...
Morphological descriptions of two Halomonhystera species (Nematoda, Monhysterida) are presented (Halomonhystera hermesi and Halomonhystera socialis). Halomonhystera hermesi sp. n. occurs in a dense monospecific and homogeneous population on bacterial mat
A Crossing Trajectory Simulation (CTS) model for turbulent two-phase flow is developed here to predict the response of solid particles to gas-phase turbulence in a two-phase turbulent round jet. The conservation equations are based on an Eulerian approach for the gas-phase; (k-蔚 model), ...
Physical science, the scientific rationalist may freely go on to admit, has not yet definitively settled on the ultimate ontological furniture of the universe. There is plenty of theoretical and experimental work to be done investigating whether its ontological primitives are particles, fields, probabil...
Earlier I discussed the internal uptake of uranium which is worse than external exposure because the primary emission, alpha particles, actually matter for dose. By rough estimate from Oak Ridge, an average piece of Fiestaware has a combined beta & gamma contact dose rate of ~.4μSv/hr. The...

pure compact metal, thus reducing energy density. Among the various efforts being made towards increasing practical specific energy, equal attention should be given to the removal of anode discharged product from the cells as it forms. The metal anode oxidizes to metal oxide during discharge and ge...
This pseudorapidity gap is used to study the long-range compo- nent of the correlations [2,3]. The labels a and b denote the two particles in the pair, and in this paper are referred to as the 'reference' and 'associated' particles, respectively. The correlation function is defined as...
Lithocodium is re-interpreted as a filamentous-septate heterotrichale ulvophycean alga (?order Ulotrichales) exhibiting a heteromorphic life cycle consisting of two phases: an epilithic gametophytic and a euendolithic sporophytic (Gomontia stage). Bacinella irregularis is interpreted and redescribed...
