4 unusual facts about bps


3D mirror symmetry

BPS vortices, which are those vortices that preserve some supersymmetry, have masses which are given by the FI term of the gauge theory.

Freund–Rubin compactification

11D supergravity contains a 3-form field C. It also contains an electric 2-brane (M2) and a magnetic 5-brane (M5) under C. These branes are BPS states and they are also black branes.

Nissarana Vanaya

Matara Sri Nanarama Mahathera (author of 'Seven stages of Purification' and 'Seven Contemplations', both published by the BPS), to direct the meditation training, and then, his mission accomplished, he himself entered the Buddhist order under the name Mitirigala Dhammanisanthi.

Sudhansu Datta Majumdar

The Majumdar–Papapetrou solution, thus, can be seen as early example of BPS configuration where static equilibrium results due to the cancellation of opposing forces.

Bombay Psychiatric Society

After a spate of suicides by students in 2010, BPS had initiated a campaign along with additional municipal commissioner Manisha Mhaiskar, KEM Hospital dean Dr Sanjay Oak and the BMC’s education department.

BPS domain

In molecular biology, the BPS domain (Between PH and SH2) domain is a protein domain of approximately 45 amino acids found in the adaptor proteins Grb7Grb10/Grb14.

Buddhist Publication Society

The BPS also publishes several books on the Abhidhamma, a systematic arrangement of the Buddha’s philosophical and psychological teachings, defining the theory that lies behind his more pragmatically oriented discourses: A Comprehensive Manual of Abhidhamma, a translation of the Abhidhammattha-sangaha complete with a detailed explanatory guide by the Burmese Sayadaw U Rewatadhamma and Bhikkhu Bodhi.

S1 MP3 player

Recording via built-in microphone or FM radio in ADPCM WAV (32 kbit/s mono or 64k bps stereo; using FFmpeg codec named adpcm ima wav), ACT (8 kbit/s) or VOR (32 or 8 kbit/s) formats, and ability to play back these files locally or via Windows Media Player when connected as an MSC device.

Sublink Network

Sublink was the very first public (non-academic) internet email and newsgroup network in Italy, with very low access fees (around $100 a year), fast backbone modems running at 19200 bps (the average modem was 2400 bit/s at that time), and fully registered to the NIC.

U2 spliceosomal RNA

Complementary binding between U2 snRNA (in an area lying towards the 5' end but 3' to hairpin I) and the branchpoint sequence (BPS) of the intron results in the bulging out of an unpaired adenosine, on the BPS, which initiates a nucleophilic attack at the intronic 5' splice site, thus starting the first of two transesterification reactions that mediate splicing.
