Laboratory and numerical study of waves in the port area [PDF]

Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2016
Parameters of waves in water area of the projected port are normally obtained using physical and numerical modelling. Physical modelling allows defininig structural details of the port’s facilities and provides with information for the appropriate ...

Fukushima and Chernobyl: Similarities and Differences of Radiocesium Behavior in the Soil–Water Environment

Toxics, 2022
In the wake of Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents, radiocesium has become a radionuclide of most environmental concern. The ease with which this radionuclide moves through the environment and is taken up by plants and animals is governed by its chemical ...

Cluster radioactivity in $^{114}$Ba in the HFB theory

, 2011
Cluster radioactivity in $^{114}$Ba is described as a spontaneous fission with a large mass asymmetry within the self-consistent HFB theory. A new fission valley with large octupole deformation is found in the potential energy surface.

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.

Equilibrium status of naturally occurring 226Ra with radon daughters and estimation of 238U activity from 235U using natural radioactivity ratio of 238U/235U in soil around Rawatbhata, Rajasthan

Radiation Protection and Environment, 2022
Equilibrium status among 226Ra and radon daughters was studied in soil samples around Rawatbhata, Rajasthan. It was found that the increase in radioactivity of 214Bi (radon daughter) due to complete radon buildup in the sealed container is within 15 ...

Mass spectrometry based identification of AMP‐O‐Tris generated by Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Isolated Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10 generates the noncanonical ATP‐derived product AMP‐O‐Tris while in Tris‐containing buffer as identified via mass spectrometry, revealing relaxed nucleophile selectivity under isolated conditions. These findings suggest that multiprotein Csm complex assembly restricts Cas10 reactivity toward canonical cyclic ...

Retention of 2011 Fukushima Dai-ichi NPP accident-derived 137Cs in the northern North Pacific–Bering Sea

Scientific Reports
Tracing soluble radionuclides is critical for understanding the mechanisms underlying the transport of soluble materials in marine environments. In the present study, we investigated the surface distribution of the concentrations (activities) of 134Cs ...

Identification of hazards for water environment in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin caused by the discharge of salt mine water containing particularly harmful substances and radionuclides

Journal of Sustainable Mining, 2015
The Upper Silesian urban-industrial agglomeration is one of the most industrialized areas in Europe. The intense industrialization should be attributed mostly to the presence of coal and other minerals deposits and its extraction.

Introduction to Astronomy with Radioactivity

, 2010
In the late nineteenth century, Antoine Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity and thus the physics of weak interactions, well before atomic and quantum physics was known.
