Simulation of the image rejection phase method by R. R. Vishnyakov

“…On the basis of this model it is possible to provide a high level (at least 40 dB) of image rejection by amplitude and phase circuit imbalance compensation. The dependence of the noise level at the output of the image rejection circuit as a function of the circuit elements frequency characteristics is given. …”

Plasma membrane profiling defines an expanded class of cell surface proteins selectively targeted for degradation by HCMV US2 in cooperation with UL141. by Jye-Lin Hsu, Dick J H van den Boomen, Peter Tomasec, Michael P Weekes, Robin Antrobus, Richard J Stanton, Eva Ruckova, Daniel Sugrue, Gavin S Wilkie, Andrew J Davison, Gavin W G Wilkinson, Paul J Lehner

“…Here we show that US2 function goes far beyond MHC-I degradation. A systematic proteomic study using Plasma Membrane Profiling revealed US2 was unique in downregulating additional cellular targets, including: five distinct integrin α-chains, CD112, the interleukin-12 receptor, PTPRJ and thrombomodulin. …”

Three-Space as a Quantum Hyperlayer in 1+3 Dimensions: A Case Study in Quantum Space and Time by Marek Czachor

“…We test the formalism on the example of a universe that contains a single harmonic oscillator, a generalization of the curvature-dependent Cariñena–Rañada–Santander (CRS) model. As opposed to the original CRS formulation, here, the curvature is not a parameter but a quantum observable, a function of the world-position operator. …”
