B and D meson decay constants in lattice QCD
(American Physical Society, 1998)We have calculated the decay constants of B and D mesons with lattice QCD. We use an O(a)-improved action that takes light quark actions as a starting point, tuned so that it can be directly applied at the physical masses ... -
B and D semileptonic decays to light mesons
(2008-10-09)We present an update of our calculation of the form factors and partial widths of semileptonic heavy-to-light meson decays, in the quenched approximation. Our complete data set has now been analysed and our results include ... -
B-Raf(V600E) and thrombospondin-1 promote thyroid cancer progression.
(2010)Although B-Raf(V600E) is the most common somatic mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), how it induces tumor aggressiveness is not fully understood. Using gene set enrichment analysis and in vitro and in vivo ... -
BABAR: an R package to simplify the normalisation of common reference design microarray-based transcriptomic datasets.
(BioMed Central, 2010)BACKGROUND: The development of DNA microarrays has facilitated the generation of hundreds of thousands of transcriptomic datasets. The use of a common reference microarray design allows existing transcriptomic data to be ... -

Back to the Present: How Not to Use Counterfactuals to Explain Causal Asymmetry
(2022)A plausible thought is that we should evaluate counterfactuals in the actual world by holding the present ‘fixed’; the state of the counterfactual world at the time of the antecedent, outside the area of the antecedent, ... -
Backwards Causation in Social Institutions
(2022)Whereas many philosophers take backwards causation to be impossible, the few who maintain its possibility either take it to be absent from the actual world or else confined to theoretical physics. Here, however, I argue ... -
Bacterial DNA topology and infectious disease
(2009)he gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli and its close relative Salmonella enterica have made important contributions historically to our understanding of how bacteria control DNA supercoiling and of how supercoiling ... -
Bacterial L-forms on tap: an improved methodology to generate Bacillus subtilis L-forms heralds a new era of research
(2012)Bacterial L-forms are cell wall-less forms of bacteria that usually grow with a conventional cell wall. Despite being important for research, L-forms are difficult to generate reproducibly and research in this area is ... -
Bacterial regulon evolution: distinct responses and roles for the identical OmpR proteins of Salmonella Typhimurium and Escherichia coli in the acid stress response
(2014)The evolution of new gene networks is a primary source of genetic innovation that allows bacteria to explore and exploit new niches, including pathogenic interactions with host organisms. For example, the archetypal DNA ... -
Bacterial self-defence: how Escherichia coli evades serum killing.
(2014)The ability to survive the bactericidal action of serum is advantageous to extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli that gain access to the bloodstream. Evasion of the innate defences present in serum, including complement ... -
Bacterially synthesized tellurium nanostructures for broadband ultrafast nonlinear optical applications
(2019)Elementary tellurium is currently of great interest as an element with potential promise in nano-technology applications because of the recent discovery regarding its three two-dimensional phases and the existence of Weyl ...
