A critical review of digital technology innovations for early warning of water-related disease outbreaks associated with climatic hazards
(2024-01-01)Water-related climatic disasters pose a significant threat to human health due to the potential of disease outbreaks, which are exacerbated by climate change. Therefore, it is crucial to predict their occurrence with ... -
Critical success factors (CSFs) for motivating end-user stakeholder’s support for ensuring sustainability of PPP projects in Nigerian host communities
(2023-05-02)Purpose This study aims to investigate two public private partnership (PPP) road projects in Nigeria for exploring factors that can motivate end-user stakeholders for contributing towards sustaining a PPP project in the ... -
Critical Success Factors for Ensuring Bankable Completion Risk in PFI/PPP Megaprojects
(2020-01)This study investigates project financiers' perspectives on the bankability of completion risk in private finance initiative and public–private partnership (PFI/PPP) megaprojects. Using a mixed methodology approach, focus ... -

A critique of narrative reviews of the evidence-base for ECT in depression
(2022-01-27)There has been recent debate regarding the efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy in the treatment of depression. This has been based on narrative reviews that contradict existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses. In ... -
A Critique of the Spite Plateau, and the Astration of Primordial Lithium
(2023-03-30)We investigate the distribution of the lithium abundances, A(Li), of metal-poor dwarf and subgiant stars within the limits 5500 K< eff < 6700 K, –6.0 < [Fe/H] < –1.5, and log >∼3.5 (a superset of parameters first adopted ... -

Crop specific implications of yield and energy use efficiency in non-inversion tillage systems
(2016-02-23)This paper reports how non-inversion (reduced) tillage impacts energy consumption and crop yield, utilising 8 years of replicated field trials undertaken by The New Farming Systems study in the East of England. Tillage ... -
A cross comparison between different methods measuring environmental parameters for occupant window behaviour
(2023-08-18)When studying occupant window behaviour in buildings, the measurement of environmental factorsoften requires dedicated measuring equipment. Currently, there is no universally accepted methods forthe measurement, and in ... -

Cross section for supernova axion observation in neutrino water Čherenkov detectors
(2024-01-02)Axions coupled to nucleons might be copiously emitted from core-collapse supernovae (SNe). If the axion-nucleon coupling is strong enough, then axions would be emitted from the SN as a burst and, reaching Earth, may excite ... -
Cross section measurements for γ-process studies using a LEPS detector
(2016-01-05)In this paper we present the ongoing experiments at ATOMKI related to our systematic γ-process studies. These studies are intended to enlarge the limited experimental database from α-induced reactions on nuclei in the ... -
Cross section measurements of (p,gamma)-reactions relevant to p-process.
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 1999)The cross sections of the Nb-93(p,gamma)Mo-94 and Y-89(p,gamma)Zr-90 reactions have been measured over the proton energy range 1.4-4.8 MeV and 1.6-2.4 MeV respectively. The results are compared with the predictions of ... -
Cross section measurements of 155,157Gd(n, γ) induced by thermal and epithermal neutrons
(2019-01-28)Neutron capture cross section measurements on 155Gd and 157Gd were performed using the time-of-flight technique at the n_TOF facility at CERN on isotopically enriched samples. The measurements were carried out in the n_TOF ... -
Cross section measurements of alpha-induced reactions on (92,94)Mo and (112)Sn for p-process studies
(2008-08)The (92)Mo(alpha, n)(95)Ru, (94)Mo(alpha, n)(97)Ru, and (112)Sn(alpha, gamma)(116)Te cross sections were measured at the upper end of the p-process Gamow window between 8.2 and 11.1 MeV. Our results are slightly lower than ... -
Cross section measurements of the Nb-93(p,gamma)Mo-94 reaction at E-p=1.4-4.9 MeV relevant to the nucleosynthetic p process
(2001-11)In-beam cross section measurements of the Nb-93(p,gamma)Mo-94 reaction have been carried out at E-p = 1.4-4.9 MeV, by using high efficiency high-purity Ge detectors, partly with BGO shields for Compton background suppression. ... -
