Electrospun Polyamide6 Chitosan Nanofibers Reinforced with Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Functionalized MultiWalled Carbon Nanotubes: Some Physical, Mechanical Properties and Bacterial Rejection

With the fast development of nanotechnology, the preparation of electrospun nanofibers received increasing interest. Because of their large specific area and superior functional abilities, electrospun nanofiber membranes play an essential r...

MiR-200c synergizes with trastuzumab-loaded gold nanoparticles to overcome resistance in ovarian cancer cells

Abstract Background Trastuzumab (TZ) resistance remains a significant challenge in the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), necessitating novel therapeutic strategies to impr...

Hybrid coatings for orthopaedic implants formed by physical vapour deposition and microarc oxidation

This study is focused on the preparation of new hybrid layers intended for surface modification of Ti-6Al-4V alloys for potential orthopaedic and dental applications. Combination of the technology of physical vapour deposition (PVD) and sub...

Uncovering the Past: DNA Analysis of Skeletal Remains from the Medieval Bosnian City of Bobovac

Numerous archaeological sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina represent a historical heritage and testify to the rich cultural, social, and political life of medieval Bosnia. Bobovac, the capital of the Bosnian Kingdom after King Tvrtko I's coron...

Measurement of the Y(1S) pair production cross section and search for resonances decaying to Y(1S)μ+μ− in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV

The fiducial cross section for Y(1S) pair production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in the region where both Y(1S) mesons have an absolute rapidity below 2.0 is measured to be 79±11(stat)±6(syst)±3(B)pb ass...

Tera-Hertz Counterparts to Fast Radio Bursts from Coherent Cherenkov Radiation by Tilted Bunches

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic transients characterized by ultrahigh brightness temperatures, suggesting coherent emission mechanisms in extreme astrophysical processes. In this paper, we extend the bunched ...

Plasma Astrophysics

Astrophysics with Intense and Ultra-Intense Lasers “Laser Astrophysics”

I review the present status of laser astrophysics research in which the intense and ultra-intense lasers are used to study basic data of hot-dense plasmas, violent phenomena such as explosion scaled down in laboratory with appropriate simil...

The Relation between emotional eating and perceived stress among students in tertiary education in Oman: A single-center study

Objectives: Preliminary studies suggested that the high rates of stress are increasingly prevalent in students in tertiary education in the Arabian Gulf countries and that their emotional eating is often triggered by stress. Nevertheless, t...

International business, corporate social responsibility and sustainable development

International Business-Society Management

In the twenty-first century, as traditional divides are redefined, bargaining over corporate responsibilities has increasingly centred around corporate reputation and the question of whether businesses are part of society’s problems or part...

Observational Properties of Harmonic EMIC Waves: Statistical Study

Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are discrete electromagnetic emissions separated by multiple ion gyrofrequencies. Harmonic EMIC waves are defined as waves with a strong electric or magnetic field (or both) at the harmoni...

Excitation thresholds of field-aligned irregularities and associated ionospheric hysteresis at very high latitudes observed using SPEAR-induced HF radar backscatter

On 10 October 2006 the SPEAR high power radar facility was operated in a power-stepping mode where both CUTLASS radars were detecting backscatter from the SPEAR-induced field-aligned irregularities (FAIs). The effective radiated power of...

The solar wind plasma density control of night-time auroral particle precipitation

DMSP F6 and F7 spacecraft observations of the average electron and ion energy, and energy fluxes in different night-time precipitation regions for the whole of 1986 were used to examine the precipitation features associated with solar win...

Turbulence properties and kinetic signatures of electrons in Kelvin-Helmholtz waves during a geomagnetic storm

The Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI), in its nonlinear phase, plays a significant role in transporting solar-wind plasma into Earth’s magnetosphere. This study investigates the turbulence properties and reconnection signatures observed at...

Scaling exponents of the velocity structure functions in the interplanetary medium

We analyze the scaling exponents of the velocity structure functions, obtained from the velocity fluctuations measured in the interplanetary space plasma. Using the expression for the energy transfer rate which seems the most relevant in de...
