A daytime measurement of the lunar contribution to the night sky brightness in LSST’s ugrizy bands–initial results
(Springer Nature, 2016)We report measurements from which we determine the spatial structure of the lunar contribution to night sky brightness, taken at the LSST site on Cerro Pachon in Chile. We use an array of six photodiodes with filters that ... -
DC resistivity at the onset of spin density wave order in two-dimensional metals
(American Physical Society (APS), 2014)The theory for the onset of spin density wave order in a metal in two dimensions flows to strong coupling, with strong interactions not only at the “hot spots,” but on the entire Fermi surface. We advocate the computation ... -
DCO+, DCN, and N2D+ Reveal Three Different Deuteration Regimes in the Disk Around the Herbig Ae Star HD 163296
(EDP Sciences, 2017-10-24)Context: Deuterium fractionation has been used to study the thermal history of pre-stellar environments. Their formation pathways trace different regions of the disk and may shed light into the disk’s physical structure, ... -
DDI2 inhibition promotes MHC class I antigen presentation and immune checkpoint blockade efficacy in cancers
(2023-06-01)The landscape of cancer treatments has changed dramatically over the last ten years with the use of novel checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. Even though immune checkpoint inhibitors have produced favorable objective response ... -
de Haas–van Alphen oscillations for nonrelativistic fermions coupled to an emergent U ( 1 ) gauge field
(American Physical Society, 2010)In this paper we investigate magneto-oscillations in the specific heat and the magnetization of nonrelativistic fermions coupled to a fluctuating U(1) gauge field. This model obtains as an effective model for the under-doped ... -
De novo lumen formation in intrahepatic biliary development and cancer
(2021-09-13)The mammalian liver performs many essential functions, including the secretion of bile into the gut to emulsify lipids. Bile is passed from hepatocytes to the intestine through a complex system of branching tubes: the ... -
A De Novo Protein Binding Pair By Computational Design and Directed Evolution
(Elsevier BV, 2011)The de novo design of protein-protein interfaces is a stringent test of our understanding of the principles underlying protein-protein interactions and would enable unique approaches to biological and medical challenges. ... -
(De)Constructing Dimensions
(American Physical Society (APS), 2001)We construct renormalizable, asymptotically free, four dimensional gauge theories that dynamically generate a fifth dimension. -
Deactivation of metastable single-crystal silicon hyperdoped with sulfur
(AIP Publishing, 2013)Silicon supersaturated with sulfur by ion implantation and pulsed laser melting exhibits broadband optical absorption of photons with energies less than silicon's band gap. However, this metastable, hyperdoped material ... -

DEADEYE: Differential Expressivity As Dataset fairnEss/usabilitY Estimator
(2022-05-23)Over the past several years, significant research has gone into analyzing algorithmic fairness -- the problem of ensuring ML algorithms do not exhibit biases against protected groups. That research demonstrated that, given ... -
Dealing with debt
(Elsevier BV, 2015)This paper explores the menu of options for renormalizing public debt levels relative to nominal activity in the long run, should governments eventually decide to do so. Although debt ratios may need to rise further in ... -
Dealing with Interference on Experimentation Platforms
(2018-09-16)The theory of causal inference, as formalized by the potential outcomes framework, relies on an assumption that the experimental units are independent. When independence is not tenable, we say there is interference, and ... -
Dealing with Limited Overlap in Estimation of Average Treatment Effects
(Oxford University Press, 2009)Estimation of average treatment effects under unconfounded or ignorable treatment assignment is often hampered by lack of overlap in the covariate distributions between treatment groups. This lack of overlap can lead to ... -

Dealing with noncompliance and missing outcomes in a randomized trial using Bayesian technology: Prevention of perinatal sepsis clinical trial, Soweto, South Africa
(Elsevier BV, 2010)The success of interventions designed to address important issues in social and medical science is best addressed by randomized experiments. With human beings there are often complications, however, such as noncompliance ... -
Dealing with the Past: History and Identity in Serbia and Croatia
(2013-02-12)This project analyzes the influence of history and myths in the construction of ethnic identity narratives by intellectuals and elites, as well as the appropriation and negotiation of these identities among contemporary ... -
Death by Survey: Estimating Adult Mortality without Selection Bias from Sibling Survival Data
(Population Association of America, 2006)The widely used methods for estimating adult mortality rates from sample survey responses aboutthe survival of siblings, parents, spouses, and others depend crucially on an assumption that, as we demonstrate, does not hold ... -
The Death of Isabella Della Volpe: Four Eyewitness Accounts of a Postmortem Caesarean Section in 1545
(Johns Hopkins University Press, 2008)This article provides a transcription and translation of four notarized declarations describing the events surrounding a postmortem caesarean section performed in 1545 in Vercelli, a small city in the Duchy of Savoy. After ...
