Termite sensitivity to temperature affects global wood decay rates
Science, 2022 Deadwood is a large global carbon store with its store size partially determined by biotic decay. Microbial wood decay rates are known to respond to changing temperature and precipitation.

Solar influence on radon decay rates: irradiance or neutrinos?
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 Radon decay rate data from 2007–2011, measured in a closed canister with one gamma counter and two alpha detectors, were made available for analysis by the Geological Survey of Israel (GSI). Sturrock et al.

Aftershocks are fluid-driven and decay rates controlled by permeability dynamics. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2020 One aspect of earthquake physics not adequately addressed is why some earthquakes generate thousands of aftershocks while other earthquakes generate few, if any, aftershocks. It also remains unknown why aftershock rates decay as ~1/time.

A meta-analysis of selected near-road air pollutants based on concentration decay rates. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2019 Traffic-related air pollution has been associated with various health risks for human populations living near roadways. Understanding the relationship between traffic density and dispersion of vehicle-released air pollutants is important for assessing ...

Decay rates for the Moore-Gibson-Thompson equation with memory
Evolution Equations and Control Theory, 2021 The main goal of this paper is to investigate the existence and stability of the solutions for the Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation (MGT) with a memory term in the whole spaces \begin{document}$ \mathbb{R}^{N} $\end{document} . The MGT equation arises from

First lattice calculation of radiative leptonic decay rates of pseudoscalar mesons [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2020 We present a non-perturbative lattice calculation of the form factors which contribute to the amplitudes for the radiative decays $P\to \ell \bar \nu_\ell \gamma$, where $P$ is a pseudoscalar meson and $\ell$ is a charged lepton.

Discrepancy between experimental and theoretical β-decay rates resolved from first principles [PDF]
Nature Physics, 2019 The dominant decay mode of atomic nuclei is beta decay (β-decay), a process that changes a neutron into a proton (and vice versa). This decay offers a window to physics beyond the standard model, and is at the heart of microphysical processes in stellar ...

Change in decay rates of dioxin-like compounds in Yusho patients. [PDF]
Environ Health, 2016 BackgroundOnce ingested, dioxins and dioxin-like compounds are excreted extremely slowly. Excretion can be evaluated by its half-life. Half-lives estimated from observed concentrations are affected by excretion and ongoing exposure.

Light-meson leptonic decay rates in lattice QCD+QED [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 The leading electromagnetic (e.m.) and strong isospin-breaking corrections to the $\pi^+ \to \mu^+ \nu[\gamma]$ and $K^+ \to \mu^+ \nu[\gamma]$ leptonic decay rates are evaluated for the first time on the lattice.
