Holey Fibers for Low Bending Loss (2006)

GUAN, Ning, IZOE, Katsuaki, TAKENAGA, Katsuhiro, SUZUKI, Ryuji, AIKAWA, Kazuhiko, HIMENO, Kuniharu

We have developed a novel type of holey fiber which has a conventional raised-index core surrounded by two layers of air holes with different sizes. The fiber has single-mode operation and shows a...

We have comprehensively identified the genes whose expressions are augmented in bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMMC) from patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) as compared with BMMCs from...

The use of Zipf’s law in animal communication analysis (2003)

Ryuji Suzuki, Johnr. Buck, Peter L. Tyack

nformation theory has been discussed as a technique to analyse communicative processes or sequential behaviour of nonhuman animals, as in MacKay (1972), Slater (1973) and Bradbury & Vehrencamp...

SRCL/CL-P1 Recognizes GalNAc and a Carcinoma-Associated Antigen, Tn Antigen (2003)

Yoshida, Tetsuya, Tsuruta, Yuji, Iwasaki, Makoto, Yamane, Shoji, Ochi, Takahiro, Suzuki, Ryuji
