Cybersecurity Risk

Abstract Based on textual analysis and a comparison of cybersecurity risk disclosures of firms that were hacked to others that were not, we propose a novel firm-level measure of cybersecurity risk for all U.S.-listed firms. We then examine ...

Zoning, equity, and public health

Zoning, the most prevalent land use planning tool in the United States, has substantial implications for equity and public health. Zoning determines where various categories of land use may go, thereby influencing the location of resulting ...

Speciation of Ruthenium(III) Chloro Complexes in Hydrochloric Acid Solutions and Their Extraction Characteristics with an Amide-Containing Amine Compound

The refining of platinum group metals is based mainly on solvent extraction methods, whereas Ru is selectively recovered by distillation as RuO4. Replacement of distillation by extraction is expected to simplify the purification process. To...

Spatiotemporal co-regulation of IL2 and TCR receptors reveals early antigen-driven synaptic synergy in human CD8(+) T cells.

Mcm5 mutation leads to silencing of Stat1-bcl2 which accelerating apoptosis of immature T lymphocytes with DNA damage

Abstract Mutation in genes involved in DNA replication continuously disrupt DNA replication and give rise to genomic instability, a critical driver of oncogenesis. To prevent leukemia, immature T lymphocytes with genomic instability often u...

Uncertainties in the effects of organic aerosol coatings on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations and their estimated health effects

We used the CAM5 model to examine how different particle-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) degradation approaches affect the spatial distribution of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP). Three approaches were evaluated: NOA (no effect of OA coati...

THE APPLICATION OF SOLAR ENERGY IN ROMANIA’S AUTOMOTIVE FIELD

Romania's automotive sector is experiencing an evolution towards sustainable transport, with an increasing interest in incorporating solar power technology into vehicles. This article examines the present state of solar power use in Roman...

Anaerobic Digestion, Codigestion of Food Waste, and Chicken Dung: Correlation of Kinetic Parameters with Digester Performance and On-Farm Electrical Energy Generation Potential

Valorization of agro-food waste through anaerobic digestion (AD) is gaining prominence as alternative method of waste minimization and renewable energy production. The aim of this study was to identify the key parameters for digester perfor...

Fabrication and Properties of Iron-based Soft Magnetic Composites Coated with NiZnFe₂O₄

This paper focuses on iron-based soft magnetic composites which were synthesized by utilizing the sol-gel method prepared Ni-Zn ferrite particles as insulating compound to coat iron powder, and the influence of NiZnFe2O4 content and molding...
