Case study: The downside of using a worst-case approach in occupational safety policy as an interpretation of the precautionary principle: Putting the uncertain UXO occupational safety risk into probabilistic perspective. [PDF]
Abstract Unexploded ordnance (UXO) from the World Wars on the North Sea floor pose an uncertain occupational safety risk for dredging and cable installation. At present mitigation strategies are based on an interpretation of the precautionary principle that uses a worst‐case approach, that is, assuming that UXO will be encountered, will explode, and ...

Re-evaluation of metatartaric acid (E 353) as a food additive. [PDF]
Abstract The Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF) provided a scientific opinion re‐evaluating the safety of metatartaric acid (E 353) when used as a food additive. Metatartaric acid (E 353) had been previously evaluated by the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) and Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA).

Scientific opinion on the amendment of the specifications for vegetable carbon (E 153) as a food additive. [PDF]
Abstract The food additive vegetable carbon (E 153) was re‐evaluated by the EFSA ANS Panel in 2012. During that re‐evaluation, data gaps were identified, in particular with respect to impurities and particle characterisation. Following a European Commission call for data to address these gaps, one interested business operator (IBO) submitted analytical

Digital Microfluidics for Sample Preparation in Low-Input Proteomics. [PDF]
Digital microfluidics allows the manipulation of low volume droplets, making it a versatile platform for proteomics sample preparation, especially for applications dealing with limited amounts of proteins such as low cell numbers or even single cells. Abstract Low‐input proteomics, also referred to as micro‐ or nanoproteomics, has become increasingly ...

AbstractWe describe a new code and approach using particle-level information to recast the recent CMS disappearing track searches including all Run 2 data. Notably, the simulation relies on knowledge of the detector geometry, and we also include the simulation of pileup events directly rather than as an efficiency function.

Electroweak loop contributions to the direct detection of wino dark matter
Electroweak loop corrections to the matrix elements for the spin-independent scattering of cold dark matter particles on nuclei are generally small, typically below the uncertainty in the local density of cold dark matter. However, as shown in this paper,

Abstract Calcium carbonate (E 170) was re‐evaluated in 2011 by the former EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient sources added to Food (ANS). As a follow‐up to this assessment, the Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF) was requested to assess the safety of calcium carbonate (E 170) for its uses as a food additive in food for infants below 16

Abstract This article traces the presence and absence of Frantz Fanon in the field of social and political psychology. Our work is guided by an assemblage of methods— a critical analysis of mainstream scholarship, a collective interrogation with a transnational gathering of colleagues and friends, and a deep reading of Fanon's texts on struggle ...
