Current Biology, 2019 Many people are familiar with the meandering tunnels of moles, far fewer are familiar with the creatures that made them. Such secrecy is, of course, one of the great benefits of burrowing through the earth where few predators can follow. But it's not the only benefit. Soil contains a smorgasbord of nutritious invertebrate prey - hence all the tunneling.

Determination of silicate liquid thermal expansivity using dilatometry and calorimetry [PDF]
, 1992 A method for the determination of relaxed silicate liquid molar volume and expansivity at temperatures just above the glass transition is discussed. The method involves the comparison of heat capacity and molar expansivity in the glass transition region.

Single-cell transcriptomics of the naked mole-rat reveals unexpected features of mammalian immunity
bioRxiv, 2019 Using single-cell transcriptional profiling we mapped the immune system of the naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber), a small but long-lived and cancer-resistant subterranean rodent.

The metabolomic signature of extreme longevity: naked mole rats versus mice
Aging, 2019 The naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber) is characterized by a more than tenfold higher life expectancy compared to another rodent species of the same size, namely, the laboratory mouse (Mus musculus). We used mass spectrometric metabolomics to analyze

The earth’s core: an approach from first principles [PDF]
, 2004 The Earth’s core is largely composed of iron (Fe), alloyed with less dense elements such as sulphur, silicon and/or oxygen. The phase relations and physical properties of both solid and liquid Fe-alloys are therefore of great geophysical importance. As

Stoichiometry of equations through the Inverse de Donder relation
Chemistry Teacher International, 2018 The stoichiometry of equations was revisited in light of the Law of Conservation of Matter at an atomic, elemental level. For a balanced chemical equation following the simplest general model aA → bB, the fact that ab=nAnB${a \over b} = {{{n_A}} \over ...

Amount of substance and the mole in the SI
Metrologia, 2019 Following the revision of the International System of Units (SI), that takes effect on 20 May 2019, the unit mole is defined by using a fixed number of elementary entities.

The Mole Mapper Study, mobile phone skin imaging and melanoma risk data collected using ResearchKit
Scientific Data, 2017 Sensor-embedded phones are an emerging facilitator for participant-driven research studies. Skin cancer research is particularly amenable to this approach, as phone cameras enable self-examination and documentation of mole abnormalities that may signal a

Viscosity-temperature relationships in the system Na2Si2O5-Na4Al2O5 [PDF]
, 1986 The viscosity-temperature relationships of five melts on the join Na2Si2O2-Na4Al2O5 (5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 mole percent Na4Al2O5) have been measured in air, at 1 atm and 1000–1350°C with a concentric cylinder viscometer.
