Charge-exchange mechanisms at the threshold for inelasticity in Ne+ collisions with surfaces [PDF]

, 2005
We present a study on scattering of 100–1400 eV Ne+ ions off Mg, Al, Si, and P surfaces. Exit energy distributions and yields of single-scattered Ne+ and Ne2+ were separately measured to investigate charge exchange mechanisms occurring at the onset of ...

Mineralogical and Geochemical Fingerprinting of Potentially Toxic Elements (PTEs) in Asbestos and Non‐Asbestos Tremolite: Implications for Human Health

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This paper aims to comprehensively investigate the content of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in 11 tremolite samples to better understanding of their potential effects on human health. Accurate characterization of trace element concentrations in asbestos mineral fibers is crucial to elucidate their potential synergistic contribution to the ...

Exploring the impact of Cabotegravir‐Rilpivirine long‐acting on weight gain, body composition and quality of life in adults living with HIV

HIV Medicine, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 727-739, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Long‐acting injectable antiretroviral therapy (ART) with Cabotegravir (CAB) and Rilpivirine (RPV) offers an alternative to daily oral regimens, improving adherence and patient satisfaction. However, its impact on body composition and metabolism remains underexplored.

A review of advances in pixel detectors for experiments with high rate and radiation

, 2018
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments ATLAS and CMS have established hybrid pixel detectors as the instrument of choice for particle tracking and vertexing in high rate and radiation environments, as they operate close to the LHC interaction points.

Reconstruction and Simulation of Cellular Traction Forces [PDF]

, 2014
Biological cells are able to sense the stiffness, geometry and topography of their environment and sensitively respond to it. For this purpose, they actively apply contractile forces to the extracellular space, which can be determined by traction force
