The BABAR detector

…, FF Wilson, K Abe, C Hearty, JA McKenna… - Nuclear Instruments and …, 2002 - Elsevier
BABAR, the detector for the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e + e − B Factory operating at the ϒ(4S)
resonance, was designed to allow comprehensive studies of CP-violation in B-meson …

Control of sleep and wakefulness

RE Brown, R Basheer, JT McKenna… - Physiological …, 2012 - journals.physiology.org
This review summarizes the brain mechanisms controlling sleep and wakefulness. Wakefulness
promoting systems cause low-voltage, fast activity in the electroencephalogram (EEG). …

Annual age-grouping and athlete development: a meta-analytical review of relative age effects in sport

S Cobley, J Baker, N Wattie, J McKenna - Sports medicine, 2009 - Springer
Annual age-grouping is a common organizational strategy in sport. However, such a
strategy appears to promote relative age effects (RAEs). RAEs refer both to the immediate …

Cell wall damage-induced lignin biosynthesis is regulated by a reactive oxygen species-and jasmonic acid-dependent process in Arabidopsis

L Denness, JF McKenna, C Segonzac… - Plant …, 2011 - academic.oup.com
The plant cell wall is a dynamic and complex structure whose functional integrity is
constantly being monitored and maintained during development and interactions with the …

[HTML][HTML] Hospital admission and emergency care attendance risk for SARS-CoV-2 delta (B. 1.617. 2) compared with alpha (B. 1.1. 7) variants of concern: a cohort …

…, S Kidd, D Fairley, T Curran, J McKenna… - The Lancet Infectious …, 2022 - thelancet.com
Background The SARS-CoV-2 delta (B.1.617.2) variant was first detected in England in March,
2021. It has since rapidly become the predominant lineage, owing to high transmissibility. …

[HTML][HTML] The Arabidopsis leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase MIK2/LRR-KISS connects cell wall integrity sensing, root growth and response to abiotic and biotic …

…, F Boutrot, T Engelsdorf, J Rhodes, JF McKenna… - PLoS …, 2017 - journals.plos.org
Plants actively perceive and respond to perturbations in their cell walls which arise during
growth, biotic and abiotic stresses. However, few components involved in plant cell wall …

The plant cell wall integrity maintenance and immune signaling systems cooperate to control stress responses in Arabidopsis thaliana

…, N Gigli-Bisceglia, M Veerabagu, JF McKenna… - Science …, 2018 - science.org
Cell walls surround all plant cells, and their composition and structure are modified in a tightly
controlled, adaptive manner to meet sometimes opposing functional requirements during …

[PDF][PDF] Evaluating the effects of SARS-CoV-2 spike mutation D614G on transmissibility and pathogenicity

…, S Kidd, M Mori, DJ Fairley, T Curran, JP McKenna… - Cell, 2021 - cell.com
Global dispersal and increasing frequency of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein variant D614G
are suggestive of a selective advantage but may also be due to a random founder effect. We …

Observation of Violation in the Meson System

…, K Abe, C Hearty, TS Mattison, JA McKenna… - Physical review …, 2001 - APS
We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral
B decays with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. This result …

Observation of B0-B0 mixing

…, PCH Kim, R Kutschke, DB Macfarlane, JA McKenna… - Physics Letters B, 1987 - Elsevier
Using the ARGUS detector at the DORIS II storage ring we have searched in three different
ways for B 0 -B 0 mixing in ϒ (4S) decays. One explicitly mixed event, a decay ϒ (4S)→B 0 B …
