Ordinary Facet Angles of a Stroked Path Tessellated by Uniform Tangent Angle Steps Are Bounded by Twice the Step Angle [PDF]
We explain geometrically why ordinary facet angles of a stroked path tessellated from uniform tangent angle steps are bounded by twice the step angle. This fact means---excluding a small number of extraordinary facet angles straddling offset cusps---our polar stroking method bounds the facet angle size to less than $2 \theta$ where $\theta$ is the ...

Assessing the Impact of Flip Angle and on Image Quality and reliability of Ernst Angle optimization across Varied Conditions in Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
This study investigates the significance of flip angle, an imaging parameter, in enhancing Magnetic Resonance image quality under various imaging conditions. It specifically explores the extent to which the Ernst angle, an optimal flip angle, optimizes image quality under different imaging parameters.

How Stocking Recreational Fisheries Works (and Sometimes Does not)
Stock enhancement or “stocking” is one of the oldest, most common, and most popular ways of improving recreational fisheries. Stocking is usually supposed to increase the number of fish available for anglers to catch.

Valuing trout angling benefits of water quality improvements while accounting for unobserved lake characteristics: An application to the Rotorua Lakes [PDF]
Trout angling is one of the most popular water-based recreational activities in the Rotorua Lakes. Despite the high demand for trout angling and other recreational purposes, water quality in some of these lakes has been declining over the past decades ...

This study investigates an alternative approach to reactivating the oncosuppressor p53 in cancer. A short peptide targeting the association of the two p53 inhibitors, MDM2 and MDM4, induces an otherwise therapeutically active p53 with unique features that promote cell death and potentially reduce toxicity towards proliferating nontumor cells.
