The ratios of inclusive electron scattering cross sections of 4He, 12C, and 56Fe to 3He have been measured at 1 < xB <. At Q2 > 1.4 GeV2, the ratios exhibit two separate plateaus, at 1.5 < xB < 2 and at xB > 2.25. This pattern is predicted by models that include 2- and 3-nucleon short-range correlations (SRC). Relative to A = 3, the per-nucleon probabilities of 3-nucleon SRC are 2.3, 3.1, and 4.4 times larger for A = 4, 12, and 56. This is the first measurement of 3-nucleon SRC probabilities in nuclei.

Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is one of the primary tauopathies with a disease onset in the 5th to 7th decade. CBD is a progressive condition of unknown aetiology, which is characterised neuropathologically by neuronal loss, astrogliosis and deposition of filamentous tau inclusions, composed entirely of 4-repeat tau isoforms, in neurons and glial cells in cerebral cortical areas, basal ganglia, brainstem and cerebellar nuclei. The term CBD is now a neuropathological diagnostic one and for the canonical clinical syndrome associated with CBD neuropathological changes, the corticobasal syndrome (CBS) term is used.

In this Letter we report on effects of nucleon-nucleon correlations probed in nucleon transfer reactions with heavy ions. We measured with high efficiency and resolution a complete set of observables for neutron transfer channels in the ^{206}Pb+^{118}Sn system employing a large solid angle magnetic spectrometer, which allowed us to study a wide range of internuclear distances via a detailed excitation function. The coupled channel theory, based on an independent particle transfer mechanism, follows the experimental transfer probabilities for one- and two-neutron pick-up and stripping channels.

Article Synopsis
  • A systematic study has been conducted on how nuclear deformation affects the half-lives of proton decay in nuclei with atomic number Z<82, examining the relationship between 1p-decay half-lives and the shapes of both parent and daughter nuclei.
  • The research incorporates the nuclear deformations of the emitters and residues to create a new semi-empirical formula that accurately estimates 1p-decay half-lives, reliably predicting measured values and aiding in forecasting other potential proton emitters.
  • The phenomenon of shape coexistence in proton emitters and their daughter nuclei introduces additional factors affecting half-life estimations, as it creates secondary minima in potential energy surfaces and adds new decay pathways

Oxytocin receptor (OXTR) is expressed in a distinct population of neurons in the lateral septum (LS), among other brain regions, and is responsible for regulating various social and nonsocial behaviors, including reward processing, feeding, social memory, anxiety, and fear. The LS serves as a key link between the cortical and subcortical regions, yet the synaptic inputs that drive the OXTR-expressing LS neurons have not been characterized. Here, we established retrograde and anterograde viral tracing in the mouse brain to map the input connections of the intermediate part of the LS where OXTR neurons are concentrated.

Shift work, particularly night shifts, disrupts circadian rhythms and increases stroke risk. This manuscript explores the mechanisms connecting shift work with stroke, focusing on circadian rhythms, hypertension, and diabetes. The circadian system, controlled by different mechanisms including central and peripheral clock genes, suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), and pineal gland (through melatonin production), regulates body functions and responds to environmental signals.
