Interstitial diffusion of arsenic in silicon [PDF]
The mechanism underlying the long-range interstitial migration of nonequilibrium impurity interstitial species is used to simulate arsenic redistribution in ion implantation. An excellent agreement of the calculated arsenic concentration profiles with experimental data allows one to assume that the migration of nonequilibrium arsenic interstitial atoms

Growth control of GaAs nanowires using pulsed laser deposition with arsenic over pressure [PDF]
Using pulsed laser ablation with arsenic over pressure, the growth conditions for GaAs nanowires have been systematically investigated and optimized. Arsenic over pressure with As$_2$ molecules was introduced to the system by thermal decomposition of polycrystalline GaAs to control the stoichiometry and shape of the nanowires during growth.

Diagnosing arsenic-mediated biochemical responses in rice cultivars using Raman spectroscopy
Rice (Oryza sativa) is the primary crop for nearly half of the world’s population. Groundwater in many rice-growing parts of the world often has elevated levels of arsenite and arsenate.

Patterns of sexual behaviour: the law of evidence: back to the future in Australia and England [PDF]
A recent Victorian Court of Appeal ruling [in Australia] has sparked concerns that a clamp down on the way child abuse cases are handled could thwart convictions. The Court of Appeal justices ruled only cases that are "remarkably" similar would go before

Activation Gradient based Poisoned Sample Detection Against Backdoor Attacks [PDF]
This work studies the task of poisoned sample detection for defending against data poisoning based backdoor attacks. Its core challenge is finding a generalizable and discriminative metric to distinguish between clean and various types of poisoned samples (e.g., various triggers, various poisoning ratios).

Impacts of Breaching Planetary Boundaries on Human Health: Current and Future Threats
Abstract This review examines the impact of breaching planetary boundaries on human health and potential future threats, emphasizing the need for effective mitigation and adaptation strategies. Through a rigorous literature review of 142 high‐quality articles, we explore the health implications of breaching planetary boundaries such as climate change ...

Severe acute axonal neuropathy following treatment with arsenic trioxide for acute promyelocytic leukemia: a case report [PDF]
Peripheral neuropathy is a common complication of arsenic toxicity. Symptoms are usually mild and reversible following discontinuation of treatment. A more severe chronic sensorimotor polyneuropathy characterized by distal axonal-loss neuropathy can be ...

Abstract In Commerce City, Colorado, residents contend with multiple environmental hazards and live in the most polluted zip code in the US. Perhaps no source of environmental harm is more visible than the imposing, aging Suncor Oil Refinery. The refinery dominates entire city blocks and residents' daily lives.
