On the Role of Electron Precipitation in Excess Radiation Doses Measured at Aviation Altitudes
Abstract Radiation from space in the form of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) generates a persistent background of ionizing radiation in Earth's atmosphere. The dose rate of ionizing radiation due to GCRs increases from sea level to aviation altitudes.

Cosmic necklaces in string theory and field theory
PhDIn this thesis we investigate astrophysical phenomena which arise in models with compact extra dimensions, focussing on the cosmological consequences of strings which wrap cycles in the internal space. Embedding our strings in the Klebanov-Strassler

We present a new setup at the FIGARO horizontal neutron reflectometer enabling simultaneous measurement of the structural and mechanical properties of liquid interfaces, combining neutron reflectometry with interfacial shear rheology.The study of the structure and mechanical properties of complex fluid interfaces has attracted growing interest in ...

Studying cosmic rays may lead to the discovery of energies that could dwarf the energies now obtained from nuclear reactions. The physics of highenergy particles is still, to a great extent, cosmic ray physics. The nuclear forces that are being unleashed

Cryo‐EM structure of ALC1 in an open conformation bound to a PARylated nucleosome
Reanalysis of a publicly available cryo‐EM dataset identifies a new conformation of the oncogenic chromatin remodeler ALC1/CHD1L bound to a PARylated nucleosome. This new structure reveals the position of the macro domain in the complex, and may help to understand the large conformational change leading to the activation of ALC1.Nucleosomes are the ...

ABSTRACT Background Immersive virtual reality (VR) technology offers a non‐invasive, non‐pharmacological approach to reduce pain perception in patients undergoing diagnostic or interventional procedures. Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy of immersive VR technology in reducing pain perception during obstetric and gynaecological ...

ABSTRACT Thin ferruginous sandy crusts are common on top of sandstone beds in the Early Permian post‐glacial deposits of the Paraná Basin in southern Brazil. These crusts usually preserve wrinkle structures, suggesting that they might be a product of microbial mediation.

Regional and Seasonal Effects of Geomagnetic Storms on Terrestrial Weather
Abstract It has long been a mystery why small Total Solar Irradiation changes have significant effects on Earth's climate. Solar cycle correlation studies abound but cannot conclusively point to a viable physical mechanism. Here, I show that geomagnetic storms have a profound terrestrial weather impact.
