TL;DR: These data support the presence of two different systems of memory in fish, based on discrete telencephalic areas: the MP, involved in an emotional memory system; and the LP,involved in a spatial, relational, or temporal memory system.
Abstract: The hippocampus and the amygdala are involved in avoidance learning in mammals. The medial and lateral pallia of actinopterygian fish have been proposed as homologous to the mammalian pallial amygdala and hippocampus, respectively, on the basis of neuroanatomical findings. This work was aimed at studying the effects of ablation of the medial telencephalic pallia (MP) and lateral telencephalic pallia (LP) in goldfish on the retention of a conditioned avoidance response previously acquired in two experimental conditions. In the first experiment, fish were trained in nontrace avoidance conditioning. In the second experiment, fish were trained in trace avoidance conditioning in which temporal cues were crucial for the learning process. An MP lesion affected the retention of the avoidance response in both procedures; in contrast, an LP lesion impaired the retention only in the trace-conditioning procedure. These data support the presence of two different systems of memory in fish, based on discrete telencephalic areas: the MP, involved in an emotional memory system; and the LP, involved in a spatial, relational, or temporal memory system. Moreover, these differential effects were similar to those produced by amygdalar and hippocampal lesions in mammals. We conclude that these specialized systems of memory could have appeared early during phylogenesis and could have been conserved throughout vertebrate evolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of sub-micrometre particle dynamics under the influence of dielectrophoretic and electrohydrodynamic forces is presented, and new experimental observations of the movement of submicrometer particles are also presented.
Abstract: Particles suspended in fluid exhibit motion when subjected to ac electric fields. The applied field results in forces on both the particles and the fluid, the study of which is referred to as ac electrokinetics. The ac electrokinetic techniques can be used for the controlled manipulation and characterization of particles, and the separation of mixtures. For sub-micrometre particles, Brownian motion is important and strong electric fields are required to overcome these effects. Planar micro-electrode arrays, fabricated using semiconductor manufacturing processes, can generate electric fields of the required strength from low potentials over a wide range of frequencies. This paper reviews and discusses sub-micrometre particle dynamics under the influence of dielectrophoretic and electrohydrodynamic forces. New experimental observations of the movement of sub-micrometre particles are also presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the main variables that allow one to distinguish between high-growth and non-high-growth firms, through a combination of economic (external approach) and strategic (internal approach).
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyse the main variables that allow one to distinguish between high-growth firms and non-high-growth firms. Theoretically, we discuss such differences through a combination of economic (external approach) and strategic (internal approach) visions. Empirically, this paper provides two differences with regard to previous literature: (1) the primary goal of our work is not to provide an outright explanation of firm growth; rather, we aim to establish what characteristics enable us to distinguish between high-growth and non-high-growth firms. This aspect determines the methodology used (discriminant analysis with dichotomic dependent variable); and (2) firm high growth is understood as an extraordinary growth in comparison with the average growth of other firms in the same industry, and not in absolute terms. The results show that in the main high-growth firms are different from moderate-growth firms or declining firms because of their smaller size (which is contrary to Gibra...

TL;DR: A model-independent parameter allows evaluating the order of phase transition without any subjective interpretations, as it is shown for different types of materials and for the Bean–Rodbell model.
Abstract: The ideal magnetocaloric material would lay at the borderline of a first-order and a second-order phase transition. Hence, it is crucial to unambiguously determine the order of phase transitions for both applied magnetocaloric research as well as the characterization of other phase change materials. Although Ehrenfest provided a conceptually simple definition of the order of a phase transition, the known techniques for its determination based on magnetic measurements either provide erroneous results for specific cases or require extensive data analysis that depends on subjective appreciations of qualitative features of the data. Here we report a quantitative fingerprint of first-order thermomagnetic phase transitions: the exponent n from field dependence of magnetic entropy change presents a maximum of n > 2 only for first-order thermomagnetic phase transitions. This model-independent parameter allows evaluating the order of phase transition without any subjective interpretations, as we show for different types of materials and for the Bean–Rodbell model. Magnetocaloric materials often perform best when their magnetic transitions are at the boundary between first- and second-order behavior. Here the authors propose a simple criterion to determine the order of a transition, which may accelerate future magnetocaloric material searches.
