Local work function and STM tip-induced distortion of graphene on Ir(111)
New Journal of Physics, 2014 The contact conductance and the apparent barrier height ϕ of graphene on Ir(111) are measured with a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope. A strong dependence of ϕ on the tip–sample distance is found and explained by a local lifting of the graphene ...

Measuring the Characteristic Function of the Work Distribution [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2013 We propose an interferometric setting for the ancilla-assisted measurement of the characteristic function of the work distribution following a time-dependent process experienced by a quantum system. We identify how the configuration of the effective interferometer is linked to the symmetries enjoyed by the Hamiltonian ruling the process and provide the

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Early Impact of Childhood Opportunity on Neurocognitive Outcomes in Sickle Cell Disease
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Neurocognitive impairment is a well‐recognized complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) that begins early in childhood and persists across development. While cerebrovascular injury contributes substantially to risk, neurocognitive deficits are also observed in children without overt or silent cerebral infarctions, suggesting ...

How Does the Archaellum Work? [PDF]
The archaellum is the simplest known molecular propeller. An analogue of bacterial flagella, archaella are long helical tails found in Archaea that are rotated by cell-envelope-embedded rotary motors to exert thrust for cell motility.

Assessment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure, lung function, systemic inflammation, and genotoxicity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from firefighters before and after a work shift. [PDF]
, 2018 Firefighting is regarded as possibly carcinogenic, although there are few mechanistic studies on genotoxicity in humans. We investigated exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), lung function, systemic inflammation and genotoxicity in ...
