Influence of Hysteresis on Magnetocaloric Performance at Cryogenic Temperatures: A Tb3Ni Case Study

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The existence of an inverse magnetocaloric effect in metamagnetic materials at cryogenic temperatures is investigated using multiple methods. Contrary to predictions from magnetization data, neither specific heat nor pulsed‐field measurements show such a cooling effect, instead indicating irreversible heating.

Cause-specific cardiovascular disease mortality attributable to ambient temperature: A time-stratified case-crossover study in Jiangsu province, China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Background: Exposure to non-optimum ambient temperature has been linked to increased risk of total cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality; however, the adverse effects on mortality from specific types of CVD remain less understood.

A Pilot Case Study on Innovative Behaviour: Lessons Learned and Directions for Future Work [PDF]

, 2016
Context: A case study is a powerful research strategy for investigating complex social-technical and managerial phenomena in real life settings. However, when the phenomenon has not been fully discovered or understood, pilot case studies are important to refine the research problem, the research variables, and the case study design before launching a ...

Synchronized shocks in an inhomogeneous exclusion process

, 2015
We study an exclusion process with 4 segments, which was recently introduced by T Banerjee, N Sarkar and A Basu [J. Stat. Mech. (2015) P01024]. The segments have hopping rates 1, r(

Ambient air pollution is associated with pediatric pneumonia: a time-stratified case–crossover study in an urban area

Environmental Health, 2019
BackgroundPneumonia, the leading reason underlying childhood deaths, may be triggered or exacerbated by air pollution. To date, only a few studies have examined the association of air pollution with emergency department (ED) visits for pediatric ...

Selective Membrane for Non‐Aqueous Electrochemical Flow Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sulfonated fixed charge functionalization is increased to improve the conductivity of a cation exchange membrane in a non‐aqueous electrochemical cell. Based on ex situ analyses, the material achieved the highest selectivity for this type of system to date.

Joint Analysis of Differential Gene Expression in Multiple Studies using Correlation Motifs [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
The standard methods for detecting differential gene expression are mostly designed for analyzing a single gene expression experiment. When data from multiple related gene expression studies are available, separately analyzing each study is not an ideal strategy as it may fail to detect important genes with consistent but relatively weak differential ...

Critical phenomena near the antiferromagnetic quantum critical point of Heavy-Fermions

, 2000
We present a study of the critical phenomena around the quantum critical point in heavy-fermion systems. In the framework of the S=1/2 Kondo lattice model, we introduce an extended decoupling scheme of the Kondo interaction which allows one to treat the ...
