Measures of youth e-cigarette use: strengths, weaknesses and recommendations
This perspective discusses how to best define “e-cigarette use” among youth in a way that is relevant to individual and human health. Commonly-used definitions of youth e-cigarette use have been adapted from measures validated for tobacco cigarette ...

Modulus, strength and thermal exposure studies of FP-Al2O3/aluminum and FP-Al2O3/magnesium composites [PDF]
The mechanical properties of FP-Al2O3 fiber reinforced composites prepared by liquid infiltration techniques are improved. A strengthening addition, magnesium, was incorporated with the aluminum-lithium matrix alloy usually selected for these composites ...

Device signal strength self-calibration using histograms
Traditionally, positioning with WLAN Received Signal Strength (RSS) fingerprints involves the laborious task of collecting a radiomap with a reference mobile device. Best accuracy can be guaranteed only in case the user carries the same device, while positioning with different devices requires a calibration step to make the new devices' RSS values ...

Constraining the X-ray Luminosities of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: TX Cam and T Cas
To probe the magnetic activity levels of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, we used XMM-Newton to search for X-ray emission from two well-studied objects, TX Cam and T Cas.

Mobile Robot Localization using WLAN Signal Strengths
Many buildings are already equipped with a WLAN infrastructure, as an inexpensive communication technology. In this paper two methods that estimate the position and the heading (pose) of a mobile robot using WLAN technology are described. The proposed techniques for localizing a mobile robot are based on the use of received signal strength values of ...

Silencing disease genes in the laboratory and the clinic
Synthetic nucleic acids are commonly used laboratory tools for modulating gene expression and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic. Progress towards nucleic acid drugs, however, has been slow and many challenges remain to be overcome before
