Examining the Chemical and Optical Properties of Biomass-burning Aerosols and their Impact on Oxidative Potential

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2023
The use of biomass fuels for cooking persists on a large scale in rural areas of many low-and middle-income countries, including India. Exposure to emissions from biomass cooking is linked with adverse respiratory health outcomes - likely mediated ...

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Latin American Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The history of Latin American studies is, without doubt, multi- and interdisciplinary but less transdisciplinary. There are nevertheless a host of interesting possibilities and opportunities to develop area and cultural studies toward a more radical ...

A Wideband Vivaldi Array With Enhanced Power Handling Capacity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation
This paper proposes an all-metal Vivaldi array based on the tight coupling effect with enhanced power handling capacity (PHC). To achieve this, L29 connectors and enlarged parallel-plate waveguides are strategically implemented to reduce localized ...

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Transverse mode coupling in monolithic few-mode fiber laser oscillators

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications
Transverse mode instability (TMI), induced by nonlinear thermal-optical coupling, poses a primary challenge for the power scaling of fiber lasers. In the fiber oscillator, a sealed resonant cavity, TMI could become particularly complex due to the mode ...

Psychological Safety Among Interprofessional Pediatric Oncology Teams in Germany: A Nationwide Survey

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Psychological safety (PS) is essential for teamwork, communication, and patient safety in complex healthcare environments. In pediatric oncology, interprofessional collaboration occurs under high emotional and organizational demands. Low PS may increase stress, burnout, and adverse events.

A 5 kW Nearly-Single-Mode Monolithic Fiber Laser Emitting at ~1050 nm Employing Asymmetric Bi-Tapered Ytterbium-Doped Fiber

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
Limited by stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and transverse mode instability (TMI), it is challenging to achieve high-power laser output in ytterbium-doped fiber (YDF) lasers with operating wavelengths less than 1060

Developmental Disorders in Children Recently Diagnosed With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurocognitive deficits in adult survivors of childhood cancer are well established, but less is known about developmental disorders (DD) arising shortly after cancer diagnosis. Using 2016–2019 linked Ohio cancer registry and Medicaid data, we compared DD among 324 children with cancer and 606,913 cancer‐free controls.
