Journal ArticleDOI
Transition Phenomena Induced by Internal Noise and Quasi-Absorbing State
TL;DR: In this article, a simple chemical reaction system and effects of the internal noise were studied and it was shown that quasi-absorbing states, which are produced by the change of the strength of internal noise, play an important role in the transition phenomenon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beyond the tobacco settlement.
TL;DR: Under the Master Settlement Agreement signed with the tobacco industry in November 1998, 46 states settled lawsuits in which they sought to recover tobacco-related health care costs and to hold the company responsible for those costs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Universal dimer in a collisionally opaque medium: experimental observables and Efimov resonances.
TL;DR: It is shown that in a collisionally opaque medium, the value of the scattering length that results in the maximum number of secondary collisions may not correspond to the Efimov resonance at the atom-dimer threshold and thus cannot be automatically associated with it.
Journal ArticleDOI
Darwinian selection of host and bacteria supports emergence of Lamarckian-like adaptation of the system as a whole
TL;DR: Koonin et al. as mentioned in this paper introduced a population genetics model of a host-microbiome system with vertical transmission of bacteria, where the host and its bacteria are jointly exposed to a toxic agent, creating a toxic stress that can be alleviated by selection of resistant individuals and by secretion of a detoxification agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol marketing and youth: the challenge for public health.
TL;DR: Kids who see, hear and read more alcohol ads are more likely to drink and to drink more heavily than their peers, and the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth at Georgetown University is the first organization that has systematically tracked youth exposure to alcohol advertising.
