Evaluation of Oxidation Performance of TRISO Fuel Particles for Postulated Air-Ingress Accident of HTGR [PDF]
In a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, the integrity of tristructural-isotropic-(TRISO-) coated fuel particles ensures the safety of the reactor, especially in case of an air-ingress accident.

Allostery Modulates Interactions between Proteasome Core Particles and Regulatory Particles
Allostery—regulation at distant sites is a key concept in biology. The proteasome exhibits multiple forms of allosteric regulation. This regulatory communication can span a distance exceeding 100 Ångstroms and can modulate interactions between the two ...

The driving factors of new particle formation and growth in the polluted boundary layer [PDF]
New particle formation (NPF) is a significant source of atmospheric particles, affecting climate and air quality. Understanding the mechanisms involved in urban aerosols is important to develop effective mitigation strategies. However, NPF rates reported

Metal Particles Are Inappropriate for Testing a Postulate of Extrapulmonary Transport [PDF]
Exposure to ambient air pollution particles has been associated with increased human morbidity and mortality, much of which is nonpulmonary. One proposed explanation of this extrapulmonary tissue injury is a transport of the particles outside of the respiratory tract. In the August 2006 issue of EHP, Elder et al.

What Is Matter According to Particle Physics, and Why Try to Observe Its Creation in a Lab?
The standard model of elementary interactions has long qualified as a theory of matter, in which the postulated conservation laws (one baryonic and three leptonic) acquire theoretical meaning.

Intranasal inoculation of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) with lyophilized chronic wasting disease prion particulate complexed to montmorillonite clay. [PDF]
Chronic wasting disease (CWD), the only known prion disease endemic in wildlife, is a persistent problem in both wild and captive North American cervid populations. This disease continues to spread and cases are found in new areas each year.
