ActiveRemediation: The Search for Lead Pipes in Flint, Michigan
We detail our ongoing work in Flint, Michigan to detect pipes made of lead and other hazardous metals. After elevated levels of lead were detected in residents' drinking water, followed by an increase in blood lead levels in area children, the state and ...

From p+p to Pb+Pb collisions : wounded nucleon versus statistical models [PDF]
System size dependence of hadron production properties is discussed within the Wounded Nucleon Model and the Statistical Model in the grand canonical, canonical and micro-canonical formulations.

Four upland cotton germplasm lines with improved fiber quality
Abstract Yarns from all fibers traditionally were produced by aligning the fibers and adding twist. That technique was mechanized over time and today is referred to as ring spinning. About 1970, open‐end spinning technology was introduced that offers increased speed of production while ring offers flexibility in size and quality of yarn. More recently,

Reductions of Gauss-Codazzi equations
We prove that conformally parametrized surfaces in Euclidean space $\Rcubec$ of curvature $c$ admit a symmetry reduction of their Gauss-Codazzi equations whose general solution is expressed with the sixth Painlev\'e function.

A machine learning‐guided bio‐interfacial design strategy resolves the long‐standing strength–toughness–functionality trade‐off in nanocomposites. By efficiently mapping high‐performance regions in the composition–processing space, the approach delivers hierarchically entangled, nanosheet‐pinned architectures that combine mechanical robustness ...

ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between economic policy uncertainty, risk aversion, and investors' attention for 15 equity indices across Asia, Europe, and North America. Our empirical results indicate that both risk aversion and economic uncertainty significantly increase the Google Search Volume across all equity indices.

Application of near infrared spectroscopy in cotton fiber micronaire measurement
The term “micronaire” describes an important cotton fiber property by characterizing both the fiber maturity and fineness. In practice, micronaire is regularly measured in laboratories with the well established high volume instrumentation (HVI™) protocol.

Summary Generation of competent offspring is vital for the prosperity of flowering plants. The pistil not only functions as a conduit for pollen tubes to grow to the ovary but also provides a selective venue for facilitating the growth of compatible pollen tubes and discouraging invaders and incompatible pollen.

Genforeningen er på historiefagets kanonliste. I anledningen af 100-året vil de fleste klasser arbejde med emnet i 2020. I forløbet fra 1840’erne, der kulminerede med Genforeningen, var der en række afgørende situationer, hvor personer med magt kunne have truffet andre beslutninger – og historien havde udviklet sig helt anderledes.
