Nucleus accumbens and dorsal medial striatal dopamine and neural activity are essential for action sequence performance

Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Authors: Kurt M Fraser, Bridget J Chen and Patricia H Janak | Summary: Separable striatal circuits have unique functions in Pavlovian and instrumental behaviors but how these roles relate to performance of sequences of actions with and without associated cues is less clear. Here we tested whether dopamine release and […]

Phase Stability of Hexagonal/cubic Boron Nitride Nanocomposites

Kavli Affiliate: Zhiting Tian | First 5 Authors: Abhijit Biswas, Rui Xu, Joyce Christiansen-Salameh, Eugene Jeong, Gustavo A. Alvarez | Summary: Boron nitride (BN) is an exceptional material and among its polymorphs, two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal and three-dimensional (3D) cubic BN (h-BN and c-BN) phases are most common. The phase stability regimes of these BN phases […]

Extended thermodynamics of the bumblebee black holes

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: Zhan-Feng Mai, Rui Xu, Dicong Liang, Lijing Shao, | Summary: As a vector-tensor theory including nonminimal coupling between the Ricci tensor and a vector field, the bumblebee gravity is a potential theory to test Lorentz symmetry violation. Recently, a new class of numerical spherical black holes in […]
