Accountability and Hyperaccountability in Child Protection Scandals

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The number of child abuse–related deaths has decreased significantly in the United Kingdom over the past 50 years, but there remains public and political concern about the actual and perceived risk of child deaths, with resultant processes enacted to supervise child protection practice.

Parton shower and NLO-matching uncertainties in Higgs boson pair production

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We perform a detailed study of NLO parton shower matching uncertainties in Higgs boson pair production through gluon fusion at the LHC based on a generic and process independent implementation of NLO subtraction and parton shower matching schemes for ...

Decision‐Making in Emergency Foster Care: An Insider Perspective on Current Practices and Possibilities for Change

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emergency foster care is a protection measure for children who are in a situation of abuse and/or neglect—or at imminent risk of it—that requires an assessment to make a decision. In Catalonia (Spain), emergency foster care placements are designed for children aged 0–6 and can last up to a maximum of 6 months.

A Monte-Carlo simulation of double parton scattering

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
In this work, a new Monte-Carlo simulation of double parton scattering (DPS) at parton level is presented. The simulation is based on the QCD framework developed recently by M. Diehl, J. R. Gaunt and K. Schönwald. With this framework, the dynamics of the

Composition and conservation status of rays sold in Baja California Sur, Mexico

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
An analysis of the species composition of ray species sold under a general label in La Paz, Baja California, Sur Mexico. DNA barcode sequencing of the CO1 gene was utilized to assess ray filets, and species identification was compared to IUCN Red List to understand the vulnerability status of ray species being sold.

Taming the Energy Rise of the Total Proton-Proton Cross-Section

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
Steep rise of parton densities in the limit of small parton momentum fraction x poses a challenge for describing the observed energy-dependence of the total and inelastic proton-proton cross sections σ p p tot / inel : considering a ...

Problematising ‘Vulnerability’ in Women's Prisons

open access: yesThe Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘Vulnerability’ is a commonly used but little understood term in the field of social policy and beyond. The refocusing of our criminal justice system around notions of ‘vulnerability’ has had wide‐reaching consequences which often escape both academic and political attention.

Nurses' Perceptions and Behaviours Regarding Climate Change and Health: A Quantile Regression Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims The aim of this study is to identify the factors associated with nurses' perceptions and behaviours related to climate change and health (PBCH) according to their PBCH levels. Design A cross‐sectional study was used. Methods This study included a sample of 499 Korean nurses and adhered to the STROBE checklist.

Transverse momentum in double parton scattering: factorisation, evolution and matching

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We give a description of double parton scattering with measured transverse momenta in the final state, extending the formalism for factorisation and resummation developed by Collins, Soper and Sterman for the production of colourless particles.
