LHC Searches for Non-Chiral Weakly Charged Multiplets
(Springer Verlag, 2011)Because the TeV-scale to be probed at the Large Hadron Collider should shed light on the naturalness, hierarchy, and dark matter problems, most searches to date have focused on new physics signatures motivated by possible ... -
LHX2 Interacts with the NuRD Complex and Regulates Cortical Neuron Subtype Determinants Fezf2 and Sox11
(Society for Neuroscience, 2017)In the developing cerebral cortex, sequential transcriptional programs take neuroepithelial cells from proliferating progenitors to differentiated neurons with unique molecular identities. The regulatory changes that occur ... -
A Liber Precum in Sélestat and the Development of the Illustrated Prayer Book in Germany
(College Art Association, 1991)The twelfth century marks a turning point in the history of the prayer book. During the first Christian millenium, pictures played only a limited role in prayer and in narrative imagery almost none, but by the later Middle ... -

Librarians and Statistics: Thoughts on a Tentative Relationship
(2012)Librarians are not trained as original researchers during library school. As a result, librarians as authors may succumb to common statistical misconceptions and use errors, thus it is important for librarians to know how ... -
Libraries and Fake News: What’s the Problem? What’s the Plan?
(Portland State University Library, 2019)This article surveys the library and information science (LIS) response to the problems of fake news and misinformation from the 2016 U.S. presidential election to the end of 2018, focusing on how librarians and other ... -
The Libraries of Alexandria and Pergamon as Classical Models
(1998)This inquiry concerns the Library of Pergamon, not so much as a place or institution, but as an idea or concept, a classical model. This model, I hope to show, is a historical reality in its own right. I start by looking ... -
Licensing of Floating Nominal Modifiers and Unaccusativity in Japanese
(Cascadilla Proceedings Project, 2014)Licensing of VP-internal floating nominal modifiers (FNMs), including numeral quantifiers, has been used as a diagnostic test for unaccusativity in Japanese, under the assumption that FNMs and their associates must be in ... -
Life at the Front of an Expanding Population
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010)Environmental changes have caused episodes of habitat expansions in the evolutionary history of many species. These range changes affect the dynamics of biological evolution in multiple ways. Recent microbial experiments ... -
Life Forms: A Keyword Entry
(University of California Press, 2010)We deliver a “keyword” account of the term life form as it has been used in natural philosophy and biology over the last two hundred years, beginning with its appearance in German as Lebensform. We argue that life form ... -
Life Historical Perspectives on Human Reproductive Aging
(New York Academy of Sciences, 2010)A commentary is offered on the chapters that comprise the section on Theoretical Foundations, emphasizing novel contributions of each. Three additional points are then made. First, while the biology of reproductive aging ... -

Life-Cycle Labor-Force Participation of Married Women: Historical Evidence and Implications
(University of Chicago Press, 1989)The seven-fold increase, since 1920, in the labor force participation rate of married women was <i>not</i> accompanied by a substantial increase in average work experience among employed married women. Two data sets giving ... -
Life: the first two billion years
(The Royal Society, 2016)Microfossils, stromatolites, preserved lipids and biologically informative isotopic ratios provide a substantial record of bacterial diversity and biogeochemical cycles in Proterozoic (2500–541 Ma) oceans that can be ... -
Lifespan-on-a-Chip: Microfluidic Chambers for Performing Lifelong Observation of C. elegans
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2010)This article describes the fabrication of a microfluidic device for the liquid culture of many individual nematode worms (Caenorhabditis elegans) in separate chambers. Each chamber houses a single worm from the fourth ... -
Lifetime Assessment for Thermal Barrier Coatings: Tests for Measuring Mixed Mode Delamination Toughness
(John Wiley & Sons, 2011)Mechanisms leading to degradation of the adherence of thermal barrier coatings (TBC) used in aircraft and power generating turbines are numerous and complex. To date, robust methods for the lifetime assessment of coatings ... -
The Lifetime Costs and Benefits of Medical Technology
(Elsevier, 2007)Measuring the lifetime costs and benefits of medical technologies is essential in evaluating technological change and determining the productivity of medical care. Using data on Medicare beneficiaries with a heart attack ... -
Lifetime of Double Occupancies in the Fermi-Hubbard Model
(American Physical Society, 2010)We investigate the decay of artificially created double occupancies in a repulsive Fermi-Hubbard system in the strongly interacting limit using diagrammatic many-body theory and experiments with ultracold fermions on optical ... -
Lifetime Prevalence of Dsm-Iv Mental Disorders Among New Soldiers in the U.S. Army: Results From the Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Servicemembers (Army STARRS)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)Background The prevalence of 30-day mental disorders with retrospectively-reported early onsets is significantly higher in the U.S. Army than among socio-demographically matched civilians. This difference could reflect ...
