An Atmospheric Retrieval of the Brown Dwarf Gliese 229B
(2022-12-01)
We present results from an atmospheric retrieval analysis of Gl 229B using the Brewster retrieval code. We find the best fit model to be cloud-free, consistent with the T dwarf retrieval work of Line et al.; Zalesky et al. ...
The survey of planetary nebulae in Andromeda (M31). IV. Radial oxygen and argon abundance gradients of the thin and thicker disc
(2022-12-01)
We obtain a magnitude-limited sample of Andromeda (M 31) disc PNe with chemical abundance estimated through the direct detection of the [O III] 4363 Å line. This leads to 205 and 200 PNe with oxygen and argon abundances, ...
Hexapeptides from mammalian inhibitory hormone hunt activate and inactivate nematode reproduction
(2022-12-01)
Background: Biopurification has been used to disclose an evolutionarily conserved inhibitory reproductive hormone involved in tissue mass determination. A (rat) bioassay-guided physicochemical fractionation using ovine ...
Application of Multilayer Extreme Learning Machine for Efficient Building Energy Prediction
(2022-12)
Building energy efficiency is vital, due to the substantial amount of energy consumed in buildings and the associated adverse effects. A high-accuracy energy prediction model is considered as one of the most effective ways ...
Decolonising Clinical Psychology Training in Singapore: Trainee and Recently Qualified Psychologist Views about Diversifying Therapeutic Models
(2022-11-30)
Despite literature suggesting that Western psychology and models might not be as culturally appropriate in other cultures (e.g. Henrich et al., 2010; Llewelyn & Shimoyama, 2012), clinical psychology courses in Singapore ...
Effect of Different Inlet/Outlet Port Configurations on the Thermal Management of Prismatic Li-ion Batteries
(2022-11-30)
The performance and life cycle of Li-ion batteries are governed by the maximum temperature and uniformity of temperature distribution in the battery pack and an efficient thermal management system is highly desired to keep ...
Numerical study of real gas effects during bubble collapse using a disequilibrium multiphase model
(2022-11-30)
An explicit density-based solver of the Euler equations for inviscid and immiscible gas–liquid flow media is coupled with real-fluid thermodynamic equations of state supporting mild dissociation and calibrated with shock ...
The role of comorbidities alongside patient and disease characteristics in long-term disease activity in RA using UK inception cohort data
(2022-11-30)
Objectives Control of disease activity in RA is a crucial part of its management to prevent long-term joint damage and disability. This study aimed to identify early predictors of poor disease activity at 5 and 10 years, ...
Hearing Impairment in Children Living with HIV in Haiti
(2022-11-30)
Objective To identify the prevalence of hearing impairment and associated risk factors in children living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Haiti. Methods A validated smartphone-based platform with pure-tone ...
British colonial rule : Its impact on police corruption in Ghana
(2022-11-30)
Knowledge and perception of policing and police corruption in most developing societies, including Ghana, seem to reflect through the media. Yet, of course, police corruption is an old and multifaceted issue. In Ghana, it ...
