Collective responses of Bi-2212 stacked junction to 100 GHz microwave radiation under magnetic field oriented along the c-axis
We studied a response of Bi-2212 mesa type structures to 100 GHz microwave radiation. We found that applying magnetic field of about 0.1 T across the layers enables to observe collective Shapiro step response ...

Dizocilpine prevents the development of tolerance to ethanol-induced error on a circular maze test
Dizocilpine [(+)MK-801] and ketamine, in doses that disrupt learning and memory, also prevent the development of tolerance to the motor impairing effects of ethanol (EtOH). However, dizocilpine itself affects ...
