[O II] Emission, Eigenvector 1, and Orientation in Radio-quiet Quasars
(IOP Publishing, 2000)We present supportive evidence that the Boroson & Green eigenvector 1 is not driven by source orientation and further that both [O III] λ5007 and [O II] λ3727 are isotropically emitted in the radio-quiet sample of bright ... -
OASIS: an automated program for global investigation of bacterial and archaeal insertion sequences
(Oxford University Press, 2012)Insertion sequences (ISs) are simple transposable elements present in most bacterial and archaeal genomes and play an important role in genomic evolution. The recent expansion of sequenced genomes offers the opportunity ... -

Obama's Ethics Agenda: The Challenge of Coordinated Change
(Berkeley Electronic Press, 2009)Obama's "ethics agenda" is the most ambitious ever set out by a new administration. It promises a tougher approach not only to the usual problems such as conflict of interest and the revolving door, but also to broader ... -
Obesity trends by industry of employment in the United States, 2004 to 2011
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: Obesity is associated with increased morbidity, occupational injuries, and premature mortality. Obesity also disproportionately affects blacks and socioeconomically disadvantaged workers. However, few studies ... -

Object Control in Korean
(John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2010)!is chapter presents and analyzes three constructions associated with object control in Korean. The constructions differ in the case marking and position of the controllee. We show that in one of these constructions, the ... -
Object Control in Korean: How Many Constructions?
(Seoul National University, 2007)Korean seltukhata ‘persuade’ and similar predicates that take a propositional complement (marked with -tolok) license three object control constructions: 1) accusative persuadee in the matrix clause precedes the embedded ... -
Object Ensemble Processing in Human Anterior-Medial Ventral Visual Cortex
(Society for Neuroscience, 2012)Our visual system can extract summary statistics from large collections of similar objects without forming detailed representations of the individual objects in the ensemble. Such object ensemble representation is adaptive ... -
Object Features Fail Independently in Visual Working Memory: Evidence for a Probabilistic Feature-Store Model
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), 2011-10)The world is composed of features and objects and this structure may influence what is stored in working memory. It is widely believed that the content of memory is object-based: Memory stores integrated objects, not ... -
Object Space EWA Surface Splatting: A Hardware Accelerated Approach to High Quality Point Rendering
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2002)Elliptical weighted average (EWA) surface splatting is a technique for high quality rendering of point-sampled 3D objects. EWA surface splatting renders water-tight surfaces of complex point models with high quality, ... -
Object-Based Benefits without Object-Based Representations
(Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2012)The organization of visual information into objects strongly influences visual memory: Displays with objects defined by two features (e.g. color, orientation) are easier to remember than displays with twice as many objects ... -
An objective function exploiting suboptimal solutions in metabolic networks
(BioMed Central, 2013)Background: Flux Balance Analysis is a theoretically elegant, computationally efficient, genome-scale approach to predicting biochemical reaction fluxes. Yet FBA models exhibit persistent mathematical degeneracy that ... -

Obliquity Pacing of the Late Pleistocene Glacial Terminations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2005)The 100,000-year timescale in the glacial/interglacial cycles of the late Pleistocene epoch (the past ,700,000 years) is commonly attributed to control by variations in the Earth’s orbit. This hypothesis has inspired models ... -
Obliquity-paced Pliocene West Antarctic ice sheet oscillations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009)Thirty years after oxygen isotope records from microfossils deposited in ocean sediments confirmed the hypothesis that variations in the Earth's orbital geometry control the ice ages1, fundamental questions remain over the ... -

Observable Signatures of a Black Hole Ejected by Gravitational-Radiation Recoil in a Galaxy Merger
(American Physical Society, 2007)According to recent simulations, the coalescence of two spinning black holes (BHs) could lead to a BH remnant with recoil speeds of up to thousands of km s(-1). Here we examine the circumstances resulting from a gas-rich ... -
Observable signatures of extreme mass-ratio inspiral black hole binaries embedded in thin accretion disks
(American Physical Society, 2011)We examine the electromagnetic and gravitational wave (GW) signatures of stellar-mass compact objects (COs) spiraling into a supermassive black hole (extreme mass-ratio inspirals), embedded in a thin, radiation-pressure ... -
Observation and measurements of the production of prompt and non-prompt J/ψ mesons in association with a Z boson in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV with the ATLAS detector
(Springer Nature, 2015)The production of a Z boson in association with a J/ψ meson in proton-proton collisions probes the production mechanisms of quarkonium and heavy flavour in association with vector bosons, and allows studies of multiple ...
