Phospholipid monolayers between fluid and solid states.

TL;DR: Monolayers of the phospholipid dimyristoyl phosphatidic acid on the surface of water have been studied by a combination of the new techniques of synchrotron x-ray diffraction and fluorescence microscopy with classical surface pressure data to demonstrate that between pi c and pi s the fluid phase coexists with a denser "gel" phase.

Tyrosine replacement in P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 affects distinct kinetic and mechanical properties of bonds with P- and L-selectin.

TL;DR: It is revealed that L-selectin dissociated faster from single-Tyr than wild-type PSGL-1 at higher shear but not at lower shear, and tyrosine replacements in PS GL-1 affect distinct kinetic and mechanical properties of bonds with P- and L- selectin.

Mass and double-beta-decay Q value of Xe-136

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic mass of the double-beta decay was measured by comparing cyclotron frequencies of single ions in a Penning trap, with 1 standard deviation uncertainty, and the result was $M( √ n −1.907$ 214 484 (11) u.s.

Worst case propagated uncertainty of multidisciplinary systems in robust design optimization

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust optimization approach for estimating the worst case propagated uncertainty in multidisciplinary systems is developed and validated using Monte Carlo simulation in application to a small analytic problem and an Autonomous HoverCraft (AHC) problem.

Orientation-independent diffusion imaging without tensor diagonalization: anisotropy definitions based on physical attributes of the diffusion ellipsoid.

TL;DR: A new set of scaled invariants that have the proper magnitude of actual diffusion constants and that are directly related to the physical attributes of the diffusion ellipsoid, namely, its average radius, surface, and volume are defined.
