Responses and Controlling Factors of the Litter Decay Rate to Nitrogen Addition Across Global Forests: A Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Plant litter decay is an essential process for recycling C and nutrients in natural ecosystems. However, the impacts of N addition on litter decay are not well understood in global forest ecosystems.

Classical decay rates of oscillons [PDF]
Oscillons are extremely long-lived, spatially-localized field configurations in real-valued scalar field theories that slowly lose energy via radiation of scalar waves. Before their eventual demise, oscillons can pass through (one or more) exceptionally stable field configurations where their decay rate is highly suppressed.

Effects of Forced-Air Precooling on Postharvest Physiological and Storage Quality of Winged Beans
Winged beans accumulate abundant field heat following harvest, and their shelf life is shortened if precooling is not performed promptly. In the present study, top-suction forced-air precooling (FC) was employed to rapidly remove field heat from pods ...

Direct decay of the Higgs boson via fragmentation [PDF]
In the CMS detector, the branching fractions of Higgs boson to J/ψ(1S) and cc pairs have been measured equal to 1.8×10-3 and 2.89 × 10-2, respectively. Theoretically, one possible scenario for direct production J/ψ(1S) is that the Higgs boson initially ...

Modeled and measured SARS-CoV-2 virus in septic tank systems for wastewater surveillance
SARS-CoV-2 wastewater surveillance (WWS) at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can reveal sewered community COVID-19 prevalence. For unsewered areas using septic tank systems (STSs) or holding tanks, how to conduct WWS remains unexplored.

Research Paper: Direct Decay of The Higgs Boson into Upsilon Meson via Fragmentation [PDF]
One of the dominant modes of decay of the standard model Higgs boson is its decay into b pair. Subsequently, either b or can fragment directly into the upsilon meson.

Reaction–diffusion with stochastic decay rates [PDF]
Microscopic physical and chemical fluctuations in a reaction–diffusion system lead to anomalous chemical kinetics and transport on the mesoscopic scale. Emergent non-Markovian effects lead to power-law reaction times and localization of reacting species.
