Beam loading in the nonlinear regime of plasma-based acceleration (2008)

Tzoufras, M., Lu, W., Tsung, F. S., Huang, C., Mori, W. B., Katsouleas, T., ...

The extraordinary ability of space-charge waves in plasmas to accelerate charged particles at gradients that are orders of magnitude greater than in current accelerators has been well documented. We...

Evidence of photon acceleration by laser wake fields (2006)

Murphy, CD, Trines, R, Vieira, J, Reitsma, AJW, Bingham, R, Collier, JL, ...

Vieira, J, Huang, M L, Koelle, D M, Corey, L

We have evaluated the physical state and infectious nature of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) in the saliva of nine persons with past or current Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). KSHV DNA in...

Genes in the HindIII J fragment of the murine cytomegalovirus genome are dispensable for growth in cultured cells: insertion mutagenesis with a lacZ/gpt cassette.

Vieira, J, Farrell, H E, Rawlinson, W D, Mocarski, E S

The organization and function of the genes encoded within the HindIII J region of the murine cytomegalovirus genome were analyzed by transcript mapping and cDNA isolation, nucleotide sequence...

Structure and function of the murine cytomegalovirus sgg1 gene: a determinant of viral growth in salivary gland acinar cells.

Lagenaur, L A, Manning, W C, Vieira, J, Martens, C L, Mocarski, E S

Discordant Rates of Chromosome Evolution in the Drosophila Virilis Species Group
