TL;DR: In this article, a study of neutrino oscillation based on a 766 ton/year exposure of KamLAND to reactor antineutrinos is presented, where the observed energy spectrum disagrees with the expected spectral shape.
Abstract: We present results of a study of neutrino oscillation based on a 766 ton/year exposure of KamLAND to reactor antineutrinos. We observe 258 [overline nu ]e candidate events with energies above 3.4 MeV compared to 365.2±23.7 events expected in the absence of neutrino oscillation. Accounting for 17.8±7.3 expected background events, the statistical significance for reactor [overline nu ]e disappearance is 99.998%. The observed energy spectrum disagrees with the expected spectral shape in the absence of neutrino oscillation at 99.6% significance and prefers the distortion expected from [overline nu ]e oscillation effects. A two-neutrino oscillation analysis of the KamLAND data gives Deltam2=7.9 -0.5 +0.6 ×10-5 eV2. A global analysis of data from KamLAND and solar-neutrino experiments yields Deltam2=7.9 -0.5 +0.6 ×10-5 eV2 and tan2theta=0.40 -0.07 +0.10 , the most precise determination to date.

TL;DR: It is shown here that P-clouds predicts >840 Mbp of additional repetitive sequences in the human genome, thus suggesting that 66%–69% of the human chromosome is repetitive or repeat-derived, and that the human genomes consists of substantially more repetitive sequence than previously believed.
Abstract: Transposable elements (TEs) are conventionally identified in eukaryotic genomes by alignment to consensus element sequences. Using this approach, about half of the human genome has been previously identified as TEs and low-complexity repeats. We recently developed a highly sensitive alternative de novo strategy, P-clouds, that instead searches for clusters of high-abundance oligonucleotides that are related in sequence space (oligo “clouds”). We show here that P-clouds predicts >840 Mbp of additional repetitive sequences in the human genome, thus suggesting that 66%–69% of the human genome is repetitive or repeat-derived. To investigate this remarkable difference, we conducted detailed analyses of the ability of both P-clouds and a commonly used conventional approach, RepeatMasker (RM), to detect different sized fragments of the highly abundant human Alu and MIR SINEs. RM can have surprisingly low sensitivity for even moderately long fragments, in contrast to P-clouds, which has good sensitivity down to small fragment sizes (∼25 bp). Although short fragments have a high intrinsic probability of being false positives, we performed a probabilistic annotation that reflects this fact. We further developed “element-specific” P-clouds (ESPs) to identify novel Alu and MIR SINE elements, and using it we identified ∼100 Mb of previously unannotated human elements. ESP estimates of new MIR sequences are in good agreement with RM-based predictions of the amount that RM missed. These results highlight the need for combined, probabilistic genome annotation approaches and suggest that the human genome consists of substantially more repetitive sequence than previously believed.

TL;DR: Modeling the ONH as a biomechanical structure generates a group of testable hypotheses regarding the central mechanisms of glaucomatous damage and provides a logic for classifying the principal components of the susceptibility of an individual ONH to a given level of IOP.
