Active galactic nucleus activity in nearby disk galaxies: The roles of bar strength and spiral arm morphology

Context. The transport of gas toward galactic centers and its connection to active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity remain key open questions in galaxy evolution. In particular, the relative roles of stellar bars and spiral arms and their po...

Non-truncated strategy to exactly integrate the post-Newtonian Lagrangian circular restricted three-body problem

Abstract In this study, we present a novel non-truncated strategy by accompanying the fixed-point iteration with traditional numerical integrators. The proposed non-truncated strategy aims to exactly integrate implicit motion equations that...

Evidence for Enrichment of Niobium-92 in the Outer Protosolar Disk

The short-lived radionuclide, niobium-92 ( ^92 Nb), has been used to estimate the site of nucleosynthesis for p- nuclei and the timing of planetary differentiation, assuming that it was uniformly distributed in the early solar system. Here,...

Shocklets and Short Large Amplitude Magnetic Structures (SLAMS) in the High Mach Foreshock of Venus

Abstract Shocklets and short large‐amplitude magnetic structures (SLAMS) are steepened magnetic fluctuations commonly found in Earth's upstream foreshock. Here we present Venus Express observations from the 26th of February 2009 establishin...

Social Network Analysis of Editorial Board Interlocking Phenomena from the Perspective of Astronomy and Astrophysics Journals

Editorial board members (EBMs) of journals play a pivotal role in authentic international scientific journals. Editorial Board Interlocking (EBI) phenomenon reflects the effectiveness and importance of the scholarly journal's editorial boar...

Single-Step Electrochemical Aptasensor for Melatonin Detection in Unprocessed Plasma.

Zr Incorporation Into Lithium Nickel Oxides: Bulk or Surface Substitution?

Application of Convolutional Neural Network for Fault Diagnosis of Bearing Scratch of an Induction Motor

The demand for the condition monitoring of induction motors is increasing in various fields, such as industry, transportation, and daily life. Bearing faults are the most common faults, and many fault diagnosis methods have been proposed us...

Potential of Radioactive Isotopes Production in DEMO for Commercial Use

There is widespread use of nuclear radiation for medical imagery and treatments. Worldwide, almost 40 million treatments are performed per year. There are also applications of radiation sources in other commercial fields, e.g., for weld ins...

Embodied science and mixed reality: How gesture and motion capture affect physics education

Abstract A mixed design was created using text and game-like multimedia to instruct in the content of physics. The study assessed which variables predicted learning gains after a 1-h lesson on the electric field. The three manipulated varia...

Spacing Allocation Method for Vehicular Platoon: A Cooperative Game Theory Approach

Recently, spacing policies of the vehicular platoon have been widely developed to enhance safety, traffic efficiency, and fuel consumption. However, the integrated spacing policies aim to maximum overall benefit, and the distributed spacing...

A six‐port network based on substrate integrated waveguide coupler with metal strips

Abstract In this study, a novel coupling structure based on half‐mode substrate‐integrated waveguide (HMSIW) is proposed with a small size and broad bandwidth. The HMSIW coupler is realised by connecting their equivalent magnetic walls with...

Day-Ahead Electric Load Forecasting for the Residential Building with a Small-Size Dataset Based on a Self-Organizing Map and a Stacking Ensemble Learning Method

Electric load forecasting for buildings is important as it assists building managers or system operators to plan energy usage and strategize accordingly. Recent increases in the adoption of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) have made b...

Seroprevalence of dengue, yellow fever, and related flaviviruses among the rural human population in Nguruman and Kerio Valley, Kenya

BackgroundYellow fever virus (YFV) and dengue virus (DENV) are among the major re-emerging arboviruses that pose a significant threat to public health. Their associated burden and prevalence can be substantially underestimated due to insuff...

A qualitative study of developing beliefs about health, illness and healthcare in migrant African women with gestational diabetes living in Sweden

Abstract Background Gestational diabetes (GDM) is associated with health risks for both mother and child, and is particularly relevant to migrant women and women of African origin. With today’s extensive global migration, contact with the n...

Vape Smoking: Prevalence and Perception among Damnhour University Students

Background: E-cigarette or vape smoking is becoming a worldwide concern, yet vapinginformation is not widespread among Middle Eastern university students. The paper offers the pattern ofvape smoking in Damnhour University, Egypt, which uses...

Effects of Multicomponent Training on Body Composition and Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

The number of androgen receptor CAG repeats and mortality in men

Introduction The androgen receptor (AR) mediates peripheral effects of testosterone. Evidence suggests that the number of CAG repeats in exon-1 of the AR gene negatively correlates with AR transcriptional activity. The aim of this analysis ...

Topical Pharmacological Treatment of Actinic Keratoses: Focus on Tirbanibulin 1% Ointment

Actinic keratosis (AK) is a frequent precancerous skin lesion that mostly affects chronically sun-exposed areas. Chronic sun damage leads to various mutations in onco-suppressor and oncogenic genes which cause an uncontrolled proliferation ...

Evaluation of Respiratory Protection Program in Petrochemical Industries: Application of Analytic Hierarchy Process

Background: Respiratory protection equipment (RPE) is the last resort to control exposure to workplace air pollutants. A comprehensive respiratory protection program (RPP) ensures that RPE is selected, used, and cared properly. Therefore, R...
