• PLATINUM SENSITIVE 2 LIKE impacts growth, root morphology, seed set, and stress responses 

      Lillo, Catherine; Kataya, Amr R. A.; Creighton, Maria Terese; Napitupulu, Toga P.; Sætre, Christine; Heidari, Behzad; Ruoff, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07)
      Eukaryotic protein phosphatase 4 (PP4) is a PP2A-type protein phosphatase that is part of a conserved complex with regulatory factors PSY2 and PP4R2. Various lines of Arabidopsis thaliana with mutated PP4 subunit genes ...
    • Simulations of Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis: finding the optimal quench time 

      Mou, Zonggang; Saffin, Paul M.; Tranberg, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07)
      We revisit the numerical computation of the baryon asymmetry from Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis given the physical Higgs mass. We investigate the dependence of the asymmetry on the speed at which electroweak symmetry ...
    • Simulations of "tunnelling of the 3rd kind" 

      Mou, Zonggang; Saffin, Paul M.; Tognarelli, Paul; Tranberg, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07)
      We consider the phenomenon of “tunnelling of the 3rd kind” [1], whereby a magnetic field may traverse a classically impenetrable barrier by pair creation of unimpeded quantum fermions. These propagate through the barrier ...
    • Inhomogeneous chiral condensate in the quark-meson model 

      Adhikari, Prabal; Andersen, Jens Oluf; Kneschke, Patrick (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-24)
    • Hyperkähler fourfolds and Kummer surfaces 

      Ranestad, Kristian; Iliev, Atanas; Kapustka, Grzegorz; Kapustka, Michal Jakub (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-09)
    • Variable setpoint as a relaxing component in physiological control 

      Risvoll, Geir; Thorsen, Kristian; Ruoff, Peter; Drengstig, Tormod (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-09)
      Setpoints in physiology have been a puzzle for decades, and especially the notion of fixed or variable setpoints have received much attention. In this paper, we show how previously presented homeostatic controller motifs, ...
    • Hyper-Kähler fourfolds and Kummer surfaces 

      Ranestad, Kristian; Kapustka, Michal; Kapustka, Grzegorz; Iliev, Atanas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-09)
      We show that a Hilbert scheme of conics on a Fano fourfold double cover of PP2xP2 ramified along a divisor of bidegree (2,2) admits a ℙ 1‐fibration with base being a hyper‐Kähler fourfold. We investigate the geometry of ...
    • Sensitivity analysis of a pathway with respect to fast and small temperature change 

      Zakhartsev, Maksim; Ruoff, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Temperature affects all enzymes simultaneously in a metabolic system. The enzyme concentration in a biochemical system can be considered as invariant under fast and small temperature change. Therefore, the total sensitivity ...
    • Biomarker responses and accumulation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in Mytilus trossulus and Gammarus oceanicus during exposure to crude oil 

      Turja, Raisa; Sanni, Steinar; Stankeviciute, Milda; Butrimaviciene, Laura; Dévier, Marie-Helene; Budzinski, Helene; Lehtonen, Kari K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In the brackish water Baltic Sea, oil pollution is an ever-present and significant environmental threat mainly due to the continuously increasing volume of oil transport in the area. In this study, effects of exposure to ...
    • Statistical analysis of locally parameterized shapes 

      Taheri Shalmani, Mohsen; Schulz, Jörn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      In statistical shape analysis, the establishment of correspondence and defining shape representation are crucial steps for hypothesis testing to detect and explain local dissimilarities between two groups of objects. Most ...
    • Constraints on Strong Phase Transitions in Neutron Stars 

      Gorda, T.; Hebeler, K.; Kurkela, Eero Aleksi; Schwenk, A.; Vuorinen, A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      We study current bounds on strong first-order phase transitions (PTs) along the equation of state (EOS) of dense strongly interacting matter in neutron stars, under the simplifying assumption that on either side of the PT, ...
    • Mimicking orchids lure bees from afar with exaggerated ultraviolet signals 

      Scaccabarozzi, Daniela; Lunau, Klaus; Guzzetti, Lorenzo; Cozzolino, Salvatore; Dyer, Adrian G.; Tommasi, Nicola; Biella, Paolo; Galimberti, Andrea; Labra, Massimo; Bruni, Ilaria; Pattarini, Giorgio; Brundrett, Mark; Gagliano, Monica (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-01)
      Flowers have many traits to appeal to pollinators, including ultraviolet (UV) absorbing markings, which are well-known for attracting bees at close proximity (e.g., <1 m). While striking UV signals have been thought to ...
