Correlated scattering of protons impinging as hydrogen molecules
(American Physical Society (APS), 1974)The joint energy and angular-distribution function of protons transmitted through a thin foil when incident as 2-MeV H+2 has been measured. The experimental result is compared with simple calculations and satisfactory ... -
Correlated Voting
(2016)We study the social choice problem where a group of n voters report their preferences over alternatives and a voting rule is used to select an alternative. We show that when the preferences of voters are positively correlated ... -
A Correlated-Polaron Electronic Propagator: Open Electronic Dynamics beyond the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation
(American Institute of Physics, 2012)In this work, we develop an approach to treat correlated many-electron dynamics, dressed by the presence of a finite-temperature harmonic bath. Our theory combines a small polaron transformation with the second-order ... -
Correlating chemical sensitivity and basal gene expression reveals mechanism of action
(Springer Nature, 2015)Changes in cellular gene expression in response to small-molecule or genetic perturbations have yielded signatures that can connect unknown mechanisms of action (MoA) to ones previously established. We hypothesized that ... -
Correlation between Philosophy and Politics: Complex Systems Approach to the Question
(International Federation of Philosophical Societies, 2013)The very fact of philosophical values necessitates its concretization in social life. Values are transferred through reflection of philosophical ideas in political sphere. The process proceeds as follows: philosophy → ... -
Correlation between present-day model simulation of Arctic cloud radiative forcing and sea ice consistent with positive winter convective cloud feedback
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)A positive feedback on winter sea-ice loss, based on warming due to radiative forcing caused by the onset of convective clouds in response to sea-ice loss, has recently been proposed. This feedback has thus far been ... -
Correlation pursuit: forward stepwise variable selection for index models
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012)A stepwise procedure, correlation pursuit (COP), is developed for variable selection under the sufficient dimension reduction framework, in which the response variable Y is influenced by the predictors inline image through ... -
Correlations among adiposity measures in school-aged children
(BioMed Central, 2013)Background: Given that it is not feasible to use dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or other reference methods to measure adiposity in all pediatric clinical and research settings, it is important to identify reasonable ... -
Correlations between Fine Particulate Matter \((PM_{2.5})\) and Meteorological Variables in the United States: Implications for the Sensitivity of \(PM_{2.5}\) to Climate Change
(Elsevier, 2010)We applied a multiple linear regression (MLR) model to study the correlations of total \(PM_{2.5}\) and its components with meteorological variables using an 11-year (1998–2008) observational record over the contiguous US. ... -
Correlative light and electron microscopy using cathodoluminescence from nanoparticles with distinguishable colours
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)Correlative light and electron microscopy promises to combine molecular specificity with nanoscale imaging resolution. However, there are substantial technical challenges including reliable co-registration of optical and ... -
Correlative Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy and Electron Microscopy
(Public Library of Science, 2015)Correlative fluorescence light microscopy and electron microscopy allows the imaging of spatial distributions of specific biomolecules in the context of cellular ultrastructure. Recent development of super-resolution ... -
Correspondence Homomorphisms for Singular Varieties
(Cellule MathDoc/CEDRAM, 1994)We study certain kinds of geometric correspondences between (possibly singular) algebraic varieties and we obtain comparison results regarding natural filtrations on the homology of varieties. -

Corrugated interfaces in multiphase core-annular flow
(AIP Publishing, 2010)Microfluidic devices can be used to produce highly controlled and monodisperse double or multiple emulsions. The presence of inner drops inside a jet of the middle phase introduces deformations in the jet, which leads to ... -
Corruption, Inequality, and Fairness
(Elsevier, 2005)Bigger governments raise the possibilities for corruption; more corruption may in turn raise the support for redistributive policies that intend to correct the inequality and injustice generated by corruption. We formalize ... -
The Cortical Signature of Alzheimer's Disease: Regionally Specific Cortical Thinning Relates to Symptom Severity in Very Mild to Mild AD Dementia and is Detectable in Asymptomatic Amyloid-Positive Individuals
(Oxford University Press, 2009)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with neurodegeneration in vulnerable limbic and heteromodal regions of the cerebral cortex, detectable in vivo using magnetic resonance imaging. It is not clear whether abnormalities ... -
Cortical signatures of noun and verb production
(National Academy of Sciences, 2006)Categories like "noun" and "verb" represent the basic units of grammar in all human languages, and the retrieval of categorical information associated with words is an essential step in the production of grammatical speech. ... -
Cortical systems for local and global integration in discourse comprehension
(Elsevier BV, 2013)To understand language, we integrate what we hear or read with prior context. This research investigates the neural systems underlying this integration process, in particular the integration of incoming linguistic information ... -
The Cortical Underpinnings of Context-based Memory Distortion
(MIT Press, 2008)Everyday contextual settings create associations that later afford generating predictions about what objects to expect in our environment. The cortical network that takes advantage of such contextual information is proposed ... -
Cortico-Limbic Response to Personally Challenging Emotional Stimuli After Complete Recovery from Depression
(Elsevier, 2009)People vulnerable to depression are at increased risk of relapse if they live in highly critical family environments. To explore this link, we used neuroimaging methods to examine cortico-limbic responding to personal ...
