The ionospheric response to flux transfer events: the first few minutes by A. S. Rodger, M. Pinnock

“…We show that these velocity variations have rise times ~100 s and fall times of ~10 s. When these velocity transients reach the latitude of the cusp precipitation, sometimes the equatorward boundary of the precipitation begins to move equatorward, the expected and previously reported ionospheric signature of enhanced reconnection. …”

A Mathematical Model for Cisplatin Cellular Pharmacodynamics by Ardith W. El-Kareh, Timothy W. Secomb

“…In comparison with previously published mathematical models for anticancer drug pharmacodynamics, the present model provides a better fit to experimental data sets including long exposure times (∼100 hours). The model provides a possible explanation for the fact that cell kill correlates well with area under the extracellular concentration-time curve in some data sets, but not in others. …”
