Activation of XII motoneurons and premotor neurons during various oropharyngeal behaviors

C Gestreau, M Dutschmann, S Obled… - Respiratory physiology & …, 2005 - Elsevier
Neural control of tongue muscles plays a crucial role in a broad range of oropharyngeal

TeV strings and collider probes of large extra dimensions

S Cullen, M Perelstein, ME Peskin - Physical Review D, 2000 - APS
Abstract Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos, and Dvali have proposed that the fundamental

Towards a naturally small cosmological constant from branes in 6D supergravity

Y Aghababaie, CP Burgess, SL Parameswaran… - Nuclear Physics B, 2004 - Elsevier
We investigate the possibility of self-tuning of the effective 4D cosmological constant in 6D
supergravity, to see whether it could naturally be of order 1/r4 when compactified on two …

Black holes from cosmic rays: Probes of extra dimensions and new limits on TeV-scale gravity

LA Anchordoqui, JL Feng, H Goldberg, AD Shapere - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
If extra spacetime dimensions and low-scale gravity exist, black holes will be produced in
observable collisions of elementary particles. For the next several years, ultrahigh-energy …

Extra dimensions, SN1987a, and nucleon–nucleon scattering data

C Hanhart, DR Phillips, S Reddy, MJ Savage - Nuclear Physics B, 2001 - Elsevier
One of the strongest constraints on the existence of large, compact,“gravity-only” dimensions
comes from SN1987a. If the rate of energy loss into these putative extra dimensions is too …

Constraining nonstandard neutrino-electron interactions

J Barranco, OG Miranda, CA Moura, JWF Valle - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2008 - APS

New constraints on ultrashort-ranged Yukawa interactions from atomic force microscopy

E Fischbach, DE Krause, VM Mostepanenko… - Physical Review D, 2001 - APS
Many extensions to the standard model lead to the possibility of new forces which would
produce Yukawa corrections to Newtonian gravity. Models in which the gravitational and …
