The reaction of 1-acetoxy-2,7- and 2,8-enynes with triorganoindium reagents in the presence of 5 mol % palladium catalyst provides cyclic and/or acyclic substitution products depending upon substrate structure. Enynes bearing secondary acetates, quate . . .

The functional equivalency for three indices of lifetime polydrug use was examined in a sample of adolescents (N = 794). The following indices were included in analyses: (a) a count of lifetime self-report of substances used; (b) an index weighted by . . .

Paleoclimatic constraints from regions at the confluence of major climate systems are particularly important in understanding past climate change. Using geomorphic mapping based on remote sensing and field investigations, combined with in situ cosmoge . . .

The interfacial properties of the negatively charged dimyristoyl-phosphatidylglycerol (DMPG) and the zwitterionic dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) vesicles mixed with the fusion inhibitor lysomyristoylphosphatidylcholine (LMPC) are investigated . . .

To think ecologically is to think complexly, recognising that reality is rarely singular, and that there is usually more than just one thing going on at the same time. Additionally, the world is lumpy, in that some few aspects of a phenomenon usually . . .

We study electron tunnelling through two small ferromagnetic dots. Quantum charge fluctuations and interdot coupling cause each Coulomb peak of conductance at zero interdot coupling to split. The interdot tunnel coupling depends on the relative orient . . .

Nearshore, coastal and embayment areas off southern California were sampled to determine the spatial and temporal patterns abundance and size distributions of young white seabass in the shallow (5–14 m) waters from Santa Barbara south to Imperial Beac . . .

Micelles of lysomyristoylphosphatidylcholine (LMPC) and mixed micelles of LMPC with anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) have been characterized by spin-probe-partitioning electron paramagnetic resonance (SPPEPR) and time-resolved fluorescen . . .

Let G be a graph with vertices 1, 2, …, n. Associated with G, there is an integral quadratic form, Q(x), on the n-tuple of indeterminates x= (x1, …, xn), given by Q(x) = Σ(xi− xj)2, where the sum is taken over all edges (i, j) of G. In this paper we p . . .
