We report the first six-dimensional quantum dynamical calculations of dissociative
adsorption and associative desorption. Using a potential energy surface obtained by density …

Our understanding of mechanisms that regulate the differentiation of specific classes of
synapses is limited. Here, we investigate the formation of synapses between hippocampal …

OBJECTIVE: Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) patients and their doctors frequently complain
on interaction difficulties. We investigated the effects of a shared decision-making (SDM) …

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations at optical and near-infrared
wavelengths of the nearby type Ic supernova 2007gr. These represent the most extensive …

X-linked spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder
