In continuation of our program aimed at the discovery and development of anti-HIV-1 agents, six 1-hydroxy-4-chloro-9, 10-anthraquinone derivatives (3-8) were prepared and preliminarily evaluated as HIV-1 inhibitors in vitro for the first time. Compounds 4 and 6 exhibited the potent anti-HIV-1 activities with EC(50) values of 9.81 and 17.90 mu g/mL,...

The purpose of this paper is to set out in general terms the life of the Irish mathematician and theoretical physicist James MacCullagh, in its context of place and time. MacCullagh, who was born two hundred years ago in 1809, was best known for his significant contributions to optics and light propagation, and in particular towards the development...

This paper suggests that the cases made for atoms and the aether in nineteenth-century physical science were analogous, with the implication that the case for the atom was less than compelling, since there is no aether. It is argued that atoms did not play a productive role in nineteenth-century chemistry any more than the aether did in physics. At...

The Planck mass plasma conjecture is the hypothesis that the vacuum of space is a kind of plasma composed of positive and negative Planck mass particles interacting by the Planck force over a Planck length, repulsive for equal and attractive for unequal Planck masses. The hypothesis permits to derive quantum mechanics and Lorentz invariance as asym...

ABSTRACT: Space Lattice Theory is a theoretical study of the fundamental structure of the universe. The study asks what the structure of space might be like if, instead of being mostly an empty void, space is a densely packed, crystal-like Lattice. In this Lattice, the existence and interaction of what we call matter is due to movable defects or di...
