      We investigate experimentally the light evolution inside a two-dimensional finite periodic array of weakly coupled optical waveguides with a disordered boundary. For a completely localized initial condition away from the ...
    • Molina Gálvez, Mario; Lazarides, N.; Tsironis, G. P. (AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2012-01-31)
      We investigate numerically the effect of the competition of disorder, nonlinearity, and boundaries on the Anderson localization of light waves in finite-size, one-dimensional waveguide arrays. Using the discrete ...
    • Molina Gálvez, Mario; Miroshnichenko, Andrey E.; Kivshar, Yuri S. (AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2012-02-13)
      We introduce a novel concept of surface bound states in the continuum, i.e., surface modes embedded into the linear spectral band of a discrete lattice. We suggest an efficient method for creating such surface modes and ...

      Flowering traits are becoming important breeding objectives in Eucalyptus cladocalyx. Previous studies have confirmed that the trees from Cowell, Australia, respond well for early flowering under the arid conditions in ...

      Background: The increasing number of developmental events and molecular mechanisms associated with the Hedgehog (Hh) pathway from Drosophila to vertebrates, suggest that gene regulation is crucial for diverse cellular ...
    • Merino, Felipe; Rivas Pardo, Jaime Andrés; Caniuguir, Andrés; García, Ivonne; Guixé Leguía, Victoria Cristina (Elsevier, 2012)
      In some archaea, glucose degradation proceeds through a modified version of the Embden-Meyerhof pathway where glucose and fructose-6-P phosphorylation is carried out by kinases that use ADP as the phosphoryl donor. Unlike ...
    • Martínez, Alejandro J.; Molina Gálvez, Mario (AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2012-01-04)
      We study discrete surface solitons in semi-infinite, one-dimensional, nonlinear (Kerr), quasiperiodic waveguide arrays of the Fibonacci and Aubry-Andre types, and explore different families of localized surface modes, as ...
    • Marín Game, Gonzalo; Durán, Ernesto; Morales, Cristian; González-Cabrera, Cristian; Sentis, Elisa; Mpodozis Marín, Jorge; Letelier Parga, Juan (2012-01-18)
      When a salient object in the visual field captures attention, the neural representation of that object is enhanced at the expense of competing stimuli. How neural activity evoked by a salient stimulus evolves to take ...
    • López Cabaña, Zoraya Elena; Navas, D.; Benavente Espinosa, Eglantina; Santa Ana, María Angélica; Lavayen, Vladimir; González Moraga, Guillermo (TAYLOR & FRANCIS, 2012)
      Hybrid two-dimensional nanocomposites of transition metal semiconductors based on molybdenum disulfide, zinc oxide, and vanadium pentoxide, in which ultra-thin sheets of the inorganic component are stabilized by insertion ...
    • Zambrano, C.A.; Marks, M.J.; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Maccioni Baraona, Ricardo (Elsevier Ltd., 2009-05-19)
      Several cytisine derivatives have been developed in the search for more selective drugs at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). Binding experiments in transfected cell lines showed that the iodination of cytisine ...

    • Villalobos, Claudio A.; Bull, Paulina; Sáez, Patricio; Cassels Niven, Bruce; Huidobro Toro, Juan Pablo (Nature Publishing Group, 2004-02-04)
      1 We recently described that several 2-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-substituted phenyl)ethylamines (PEAs), including 4-I¼2C-I, 4-Br¼2C-B, and 4-CH3¼2C-D analogs, are partial agonists at 5-HT2C receptors, and show low or even negligible ...
