Looking for evidence of differentiation and cooperation : natural measures for the study of evolution of multicellularity
(2009)The understanding of the evolutionary transitions is a major area of research in artificial life and in biology. We follow an artificial life approach to investigate these phenomena, using a system inspired by Anabaena ... -
Looking To The Future: Research Rich and Informed Teaching
(2017-07-28)As a recently-appointed University of Hertfordshire Research Fellow in research rich and informed teaching in higher education, I am exploring these questions: what does this phrase mean, how have others approached its ... -
The Loop Momentum Amplituhedron
(2023-05-22)In this paper we focus on scattering amplitudes in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and define a long sought-after geometry, the loop momentum amplituhedron, which we conjecture to encode tree and (the integrands ... -
Loophole-free test of the Bell inequality
(1995)An atomic cascade experiment is proposed that includes the detection of a recoil atom after the emission of two photons. This would permit testing of the Bell inequality without the need for additional assumptions, provided ... -
Loosening the chains of preemptive construing : constructions of psychological disorder and its treatment in Sierra Leone

The Lord Byron/John Polidori Relationship and the Foundation of the Early Nineteenth-Century Literary Vampire
(2020-03-09)John William Polidori (1795-1821) was appointed as the personal physician to Lord George Noel Gordon, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824) in April 1816. Byron was not in the best of health, and Polidori was recommended to him by ... -
Loss of Consciousness in Judo: Similarities and Differences Between Traumatic Brain Injury and Choking Techniques (Shime-Waza)
(2023-06-30)Loss of consciousness (LOC) is a critical event that can occur in judo as a result of both traumatic brain injury (TBI) and choking techniques (shime-waza). This research note explores the similarities and differences ... -
Loss of locus coeruleus noradrenergic neurons alters the inflammatory response to LPS in substantia nigra but does not affect nigral cell loss
(2014-12-01)In Parkinson's disease (PD), destruction of noradrenergic neurons in the locus coeruleus (LC) may precede damage to nigral cells and subsequently exaggerate dopaminergic cell loss. We examine if destruction of the locus ... -
Loss of materials and resources for addiction researchers : comment on Mitchell et al. (2012)
(2013-02)Letter to the editor - no abstract -
Loss of stored knowledge of object structure : implications for "category-specific" deficits
(2000)Following a right-hemisphere lesion, the patient SM had impaired object recognition, with good elementary visual abilities, and could derive information about object structure. He was also impaired on all tasks tapping ... -
The Lost Mother's project : Imprisoned pregnant women undergoing mandatory separation from their newborn babies experience compounded punishments and a uniquely painful prison experience
(2024-03-14)Title: Lost Mothers Project – Preliminary Findings Background In the UK, the numbers of pregnant women in prison are not routinely collated, but estimations suggest that 6-7% of the female prison population are at varying ... -
The lost science of formulation
(2005-11-01)The current R&D outsourcing market is growing annually at ∼15%, with a predicted market of US$36 billion by 2010. However, top tier contract research organizations (CROs) are attempting to transform their profitability by ... -
LoTSS DR1 : Double-double radio galaxies in the HETDEX field
(2018-11-20)Double-double radio galaxies (DDRGs) represent a short but unique phase in the life-cycle of some of the most powerful radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGN). These galaxies display large-scale remnant radio plasma in ... -
The LoTSS view of radio AGN in the local Universe. The most massive galaxies are always switched on
(2018-11-15)This paper presents a study of the local radio source population, by cross-comparing the data from the first data release (DR1) of the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7 main ... -
LoTSS/HETDEX: Disentangling star formation and AGN activity in gravitationally-lensed radio-quiet quasars
(2018-11-19)Determining the star-forming properties of radio-quiet quasars is important for understanding the co-evolution of star formation and black hole accretion. Here, we present the detection of the gravitationally-lensed ... -
LoTSS/HETDEX: Optical quasars I. Low-frequency radio properties of optically selected quasars
(2018-10-10)The radio-loud/radio-quiet (RL/RQ) dichotomy in quasars is still an open question. Although it is thought that accretion onto supermassive black holes in the centre the host galaxies of quasars is responsible for some radio ... -
