Selfish & Opaque Transaction Ordering in the Bitcoin Blockchain: The Case for Chain Neutrality [PDF]
Most public blockchain protocols, including the popular Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains, do not formally specify the order in which miners should select transactions from the pool of pending (or uncommitted) transactions for inclusion in the blockchain. Over the years, informal conventions or "norms" for transaction ordering have, however, emerged via

Assessing the theory-data tension in neutrino-induced charged pion production: the effect of final-state nucleon distortion [PDF]
Pion production on nuclei constitutes a significant part of the total cross section in experiments involving few-GeV neutrinos. Combined analyses of data on deuterium and heavier nuclei points to tensions between the bubble chamber data and the data of the MINER$\nu$A experiment, which are often ascribed to unspecified nuclear effects.

Aquamarine from Massangana batholith, Rondônia State: mineral chemistry and fluid inclusion data
Beryl is usually found in granite-pegmatite systems. The addition of chromophore elements (V, Cr, Mn, Fe) into the crystalline structure favors color changes in beryl and thus generates some of the world’s expensive gems such as emerald, morganite ...

Three-dimensional distribution of primary melt inclusions in garnets by X-ray microtomography [PDF]
open6X-ray computed microtomography (X-mu CT) is applied here to investigate in a non-invasive way the three-dimensional (3D) spatial distribution of primary melt and fluid inclusions in gamets from the metapeitic enclaves of El Hoyazo and from the ...

PERFIL METABÓLICO EM OVINOS ALIMENTADOS COM INCLUSÕES CRESCENTES DA TORTA DO BABAÇU NA DIETA
The objective was to evaluate the effect of inclusion of babassu pie in sheep feeding on the energy, protein and mineral metabolism, as well as, the effect of collection period on these variables.Twenty males intact sheep were assigned to four ...

How large are departures from lithostatic pressure? Constraints from host-inclusion elasticity [PDF]
Minerals trapped as inclusions within other host minerals will develop non-lithostatic pressures during both prograde and retrograde metamorphism because of the differences between the thermo-elastic properties of the host and inclusion phases.

This article reports finding of a highly oxidised mineral in diamond inclusion derived from mantle transition zone or lower mantle, very reduced areas on our planet. Such oxidised material is likely linked to subduction of carbonates into this region.
