The oblateness and radius of Neptune were determined from an analysis of photoelectric observations of the 15 June 1983 occultation by Neptune at six stations, combined with the results of the 7 April 1968 Neptune occultation of BD - 17°4388. The oblateness is 0.0191±0.0017 and the equatorial radius is 25268±12 km at the level probed by the occultation. The results are consistent with recent determinations of Neptune's rotation period and J 2 (the second-order gravitational harmonic coefficient) and ...

An alternative to a monolithic space Michelson interferometer is a device composed of three separate spacecraft. Such a device consists of two telescopes which collect light from a source and transmit it to a third spacecraft positioned so that interference fringes are detectable in an onboard interferometer. The contrast of the fringes is then measured as a function of separation of the telescopes. A multiple spacecraft design allows extremely large interferometer baselines. The resulting high ...

The mu1 opioid receptor gene, OPRM1, has long been a high-priority candidate for human genetic studies of addiction. Because of its potential functional significance, the non-synonymous variant rs1799971 (A118G, Asn40Asp) in OPRM1 has been extensively studied, yet its role in addiction has remained unclear, with conflicting association findings. To resolve the question of what effect, if any, rs1799971 has on substance dependence risk, we conducted collaborative meta-analyses of 25 datasets with ...
