Keeping their powder dry: Purity, pollution, and handgun ownership among Jewish women in Israel

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the gendered practices through which Jewish women in Israel experience and negotiate personal handgun ownership in everyday life. Drawing on interviews, participant observation in gun‐related spaces, and analysis of women‐only online forums, we explore the expanding participation of Jewish women in civilian gun ownership,

Cost Analysis Insights for Offshore CCS Hubs: A Case Study of the Santos Basin, Brazil

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The reuse of decommissioned offshore platforms for geological carbon storage offers a cost‐effective and technically feasible strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in emerging economies. This study presents a comprehensive techno‐economic assessment of offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs in Brazil, with a focus on the Merluza ...

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

Policy Progress in Using Economic Policy Instruments to Improve Nutrition: Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Economic policy can be a powerful instrument to influence food environments and support improved diets and health. Over the past 20 years, the use of fiscal policy to improve diets has increased dramatically. This paper reviews the trajectory of policy change, and explores the ways in which research has informed three different dimensions of ...

Holding out on restructuring negotiations: A legal analysis over Finnish and Swedish legislation

open access: yesInternational Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how Finnish and Swedish restructuring laws create opportunities for creditors to hold out on restructuring negotiations. Using Anthony Casey's new bargaining theory and the traditional creditors' bargain model as analytical frames, the study argues that holdouts arise when ex ante rights – particularly security interests,

Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Fitting the Pareto-lévy distribution on the yield curve: An application to forecasting

open access: yes, 2014
Finding the optimal distribution of innovation terms to forecast the yield curve or to price derivatives on fixed-income securities with Monte Carlo simulation is a challenge that not so many authors have taken up.

Optical Genome Mapping Reveals Frequent Cryptic Structural Aberrations in Normal Karyotype Acute Myeloid Leukemia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Acute myeloid leukemia adult cases often appear cytogenetically normal when analyzed with conventional karyotyping. However, acquired structural variants may escape routine detection. Here, optical genome mapping detected diverse genomic alterations in nearly half of the analyzed cytogenetically normal cases.

Joint power control and user grouping mechanism for efficient uplink non‐orthogonal multiple access‐based 5G communication: Utilising the Lèvy‐flight firefly algorithm

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2023
We utilise a metaheuristic optimisation method, inspired by nature, called the Lévy‐flight firefly algorithm (LFA), to tackle the power regulation and user grouping in the NOMA systems. Abstract The non‐orthogonal multiple access strategies have shown promise to boost fifth generation and sixth generation wireless networks' spectral efficiency and ...

On Feller processes with sample paths in Besov spaces

open access: yes, 1997
Under mild regularity assumptions on its domain the infinitesimal generator of a Feller process is known to be a pseudo-differential operator. We give a simple condition on the symbol of the generator in order to characterize the smoothness of the sample
