Detection and Characterization of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Parkinson’s Disease Utilizing Measures of Speech- and Fine-Motor Coordination
(2023-05-02)Neurological disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) are typically associated with observed motor difficulties in speech production and in fine-motor tasks (including oculo-motor tasks), ... -
Detection and characterization of translational research in cancer and cardiovascular medicine
(BioMed Central, 2011)Background Scientists and experts in science policy have become increasingly interested in strengthening translational research. Efforts to understand the nature of translational research and monitor policy interventions ... -
Detection and Impact of Industrial Subsidies: The Case of World Shipbuilding
(2014)This paper provides a model-based empirical strategy to, (i) detect the presence and gauge the magnitude of government subsidies and (ii) quantify their impact on production reallocation across countries, industry prices, ... -
Detection and manipulation of live antigen-expressing cells using conditionally stable nanobodies
(eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd, 2016)The ability to detect and/or manipulate specific cell populations based upon the presence of intracellular protein epitopes would enable many types of studies and applications. Protein binders such as nanobodies (Nbs) can ... -
Detection and phylogenetic analysis of adenoviruses occurring in a single anole species
(PeerJ, 2018-08-29)<jats:p>Adenoviruses (AdVs) infect a wide range of hosts, and they have undergone recent and ancient host transfers multiple times. In reptiles, AdVs have been found in many captive individuals, and have been implicated ... -
Detection and Quantized Conductance of Neutral Atoms Near a Charged Carbon Nanotube
(American Physical Society (APS), 2005)We describe a novel single atom detector that uses the high electric field surrounding a charged single-walled carbon nanotube to attract and subsequently field-ionize neutral atoms. A theoretical study of the field-ionization ... -
Detection from space of a reduction in anthropogenic emissions of nitrogen oxides during the Chinese economic downturn
(Copernicus GmbH, 2011)Rapid economic and industrial development in China and relatively weak emission controls have resulted in significant increases in emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in recent years, with the exception of late 2008 to mid ... -
Detection of a Dynamic Topography Signal in Last Interglacial Sea-Level Records
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2017-07-07)Estimating minimum ice volume during the last interglacial based on local sea-level indicators requires that these indicators are corrected for processes that alter local sea level relative to the global average. Although ... -
Detection of a lightning influence on tropical tropospheric ozone
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2000)Empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) are used to analyze a 14-year record of tropical tropospheric ozone columns (TTOCs) determined from satellite measurements. The first EOF explains 54% of TTOC variance and represents ... -
Detection of a particle shower at the Glashow resonance with IceCube

Detection of a Temperature Inversion in the Broadband Infrared Emission Spectrum of Tres-4
(American Astronomical Society, 2009)We estimate the strength of the bandpass-integrated thermal emission from the extrasolar planet TrES-4 at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0 mu m using the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope. We find relative eclipse ... -
Detection of an Extrasolar Planet Atmosphere
(American Astronomical Society, 2002)We report high-precision spectrophotometric observations of four planetary transits of HD 209458, in the region of the sodium resonance doublet at 589.3 nm. We find that the photometric dimming during transit in a bandpass ... -
Detection of atmospheric haze on an extrasolar planet: the 0.55-1.05 μm transmission spectrum of HD 189733b with the Hubble Space Telescope
(Oxford University Press, 2008-01-09) -
Detection of B-Mode Polarization at Degree Angular Scales by BICEP2
(American Physical Society (APS), 2014)We report results from the BICEP2 experiment, a cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarimeter specifically designed to search for the signal of inflationary gravitational waves in the B-mode power spectrum around ℓ∼80. The ... -
Detection of Gravitational Wave Emission by Supermassive Black Hole Binaries Through Tidal Disruption Flares
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)Galaxy mergers produce supermassive black hole binaries, which emit gravitational waves prior to their coalescence. We perform three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to study the tidal disruption of stars by such a ... -
Detection of Gravitational Waves from the Coalescence of Population III Remnants with Advanced LIGO
(American Astronomical Society, 2004)The comoving mass density of massive black hole (MBH) remnants from pregalactic star formation could have been similar in magnitude to the mass density of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the present-day universe. We ... -
Detection of HCN and diverse redox chemistry in the plume of Enceladus
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2023-12-14)The \textit{Cassini} spacecraft observed that Saturn’s moon Enceladus possesses a series of jets erupting from its South Polar Terrain. Previous studies of in situ data collected by \textit{Cassini}’s Ion and Neutral Mass ... -
Detection of HCO+ towards Cygnus OB2 No. 12
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2000)HCO+ has been detected for the first time towards the star Cygnus OB2 No. 12 through emission of the 1−0 rotational transition at 89GHz. The CO(J=2−1) transition has also been observed. The observations are consistent with ... -
Detection of human brain tumor infiltration with quantitative stimulated Raman scattering microscopy
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2015)Differentiating tumor from normal brain is a major barrier to achieving optimal outcome in brain tumor surgery. New imaging techniques for visualizing tumor margins during surgery are needed to improve surgical results. ... -
Detection of Lipid-Linked Peptidoglycan Precursors by Exploiting an Unexpected Transpeptidase Reaction
(American Chemical Society, 2014)Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are involved in the synthesis and remodeling of bacterial peptidoglycan (PG). Staphylococcus aureus expresses four PBPs. Genetic studies in S. aureus have implicated PBP4 in the formation ...
