Published: October 2019

The anomaly cancellation equations for the U(1) gauge group can be written as a cubic equation in n-1 integer variables, where n is the number of Weyl fermions carrying the U(1) charge. We solve this Diophantine cubic equation by providing a parametrization of the charges in terms of n-2 integers, and prove that this is the most general solution.

Global concern regarding transformation products (TPs) derived from contaminants, including pesticides, in the environment and during water treatment has been growing markedly. In the present study, we investigated the anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity of an aqueous solution of the organophosphorus insecticide disulfoton, a toxicological endpoint for determining the acceptable daily intake of disulfoton, both in the presence and the absence of metabolism during chlorination. Disulfoton rapidly reacted with free chlorine and completely disappeared within 0.

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic, progressive condition where the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. In addition to the daily challenges that HF poses, acute exacerbations can lead to costly hospitalizations and increased mortality. High health care costs and the burden of HF have led to the emerging application of new technologies to support people living with HF to stay well while living in the community.

Background: Traditional in-clinic methods of collecting self-reported information are costly, time-consuming, subjective, and often limited in the quality and quantity of observation. However, smartphone-based ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) provide complementary information to in-clinic visits by collecting real-time, frequent, and longitudinal data that are ecologically valid. While these methods are promising, they are often prone to various technical obstacles.

Natural enzymes are powerful catalysts, reducing the apparent activation energy for reactions and enabling chemistry to proceed as much as 10 times faster than the corresponding solution reaction. It has been suggested for some time that, in some cases, quantum tunneling can contribute to this rate enhancement by offering pathways through a barrier inaccessible to activated events. A central question of interest to both physical chemists and biochemists is the extent to which evolution introduces mechanisms below the barrier, or tunneling mechanisms.

Background: Targeting cardiovascular fitness (CVF), rather than weight loss, may be a more acceptable and feasible outcome among Latinos.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test the short-term efficacy of (AFL), a fitness- and lifestyle-focused behavioral intervention to improve CVF and performance among Latino families.

Methods: Latino parent-child dyads (n = 137) were randomized to either AFL program or a waitlist control condition.
