is determined by computing its expected (under the risk-neutral measure) future cash flows discounted at the risk-free rate. As the credit spread CS(t) is uniquely defined through: (1) the price of a debt claim, (2) this debt claim's contractual cash flows, and (3) the (appropriate) risk-free rate, we can

degradation 5 , deadenylation 6 and translational repression 7 . The evolutionary conservation of miRNAs has been described 8 , as has their use of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) promoters for control of expression 9-11 . A recent study described approximately ten mammalian miRNAs created by a repetitive element

an imaging experiment using an array of n C receiver coils. Fourier encoding is described by a set of n K sampling positions in k-space. Let the whole object be within the volume of interest (VOI). Then a sample value m obtained from the ␥-th coil at the -th position in k-space is given by where r denotes 3D

plate and to a lesser extent hot asthenosphere near the hotspot. The volume, heat, and buoyancy fluxes of hotspots are computed from the cross-sectional areas of swells, the shapes of noses of swells, and, for on ridge hotspots, the amount of ascending material needed to supply the length of ridge axis

analysis is quite complicated as it involves the computation of volumes of spherical tetrahedra. Hastad has recently shown that, assuming P != NP , no polynomial-time algorithm for MAX 3SAT can achieve a performance ratio exceeding 7=8, even when restricted to satisfiable instances of the problem.

of three mobiles was repeated three times for a total of nine trials. Each mobile was displayed at the infant's eye level and approximately 12 inches from the face. The first series of auditory stimuli consisted of 8 short sentences. Each sentence was approximately 6 s in duration, followed by a 2-s

The article examines the speci c interaction between network morphology and relationships of production/consumption, power, experience, and culture, in the historical making of the emerging social structure at the turn of the Millennium.
