From polarity to plurality: Perceptions of COVID‐19 and policy measures in England and Scotland

open access: yesHealth Expectations
Aim The aim of this study was to uncover perspectives on the COVID‐19 pandemic and the responses implemented by the UK and Scottish Governments to help control the spread of infection. Such understanding could help to inform future responses to pandemics

Spread of tweets in climate discussions: A case study of the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize announcement

open access: yesNordic Journal of Media Studies, 2021
Characterising the spreading of ideas within echo chambers is essential for understanding polarisation. In this article, we explore the characteristics of popular and viral content in climate change discussions on Twitter around the 2019 announcement of ...

Forming microbial anodes under delayed polarisation modifies the electron transfer network and decreases the polarisation time required. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Microbial anodes were formed from compost leachate on carbon cloth electrodes. The biofilms formed at the surface of electrodes kept at open circuit contained microorganisms that switched their metabolism towards electrode respiration in response to a ...

Tertium non datur? American Originalism and Polarization in Democracy [PDF]

open access: yesKrytyka Prawa
Originalism – as one of the main approaches to the interpretation of the U.S. federal Constitution – has been increasingly viewed as an instrument of political struggle in the hands of the judiciary.

M82 - A radio continuum and polarisation study II. Polarisation and rotation measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The composition and morphology of the interstellar medium in starburst galaxies has been well investigated, but the magnetic field properties are still uncertain. The nearby starburst galaxy M82 provides a unique opportunity to investigate the mechanisms

De-Polarising Debate [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of General Practice, 2020
I would be willing to wager that the topics tackled in this issue will provoke robust opinions. I would counsel a pause before we launch into the necessary discussions. Psychology has provided plenty of evidence over the years that we are not as rationale as we assume. It is all too easy to become polarised in any debate.

Planck pre-launch status: Expected LFI polarisation capability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present a system-level description of the Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) considered as a differencing polarimeter, and evaluate its expected performance.

Analytical formula for the Uehling potential

open access: yes, 2012
The closed analytical expression for the Uehling potential is derived. The Uehling potential describes the lowest-order correction on vacuum polarisation in atomic and muon-atomic systems.

A new analysis of quasar polarisation alignments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We propose a new method to analyse the alignment of optical polarisation vectors from quasars. This method leads to a definition of intrinsic preferred axes and to a determination of the probability $p^{\sigma}$ that the distribution of polarisation ...

Single top polarisation as a window to new physics

open access: yes, 2017
We discuss the effect of heavy new physics, parameterised in terms of four-fermion operators, in the polarisation of single top (anti-)quarks in the $t$-channel process at the LHC.
