Simba-C: the evolution of the thermal and chemical properties in the intragroup medium
(2024-06-13)The newly updated GIZMO and Simba based simulation, Simba-C, with its new stellar feedback, chemical enrichment, and recalibrated AGN feedback, allows for a detailed study of the intragroup medium X-ray properties. We ... -
Slowly but surely? Assessing EU actorness in energy sanctions against Russia
(2024-07-02)The ongoing Russian war against Ukraine has brought the energy policy of the European Union (EU) back to the headlines. The reaction of the EU and its member states to the unfolding energy crisis, has cast doubts on their ... -
The properties of AGN in dwarf galaxies identified via SED fitting
(2024-07-01)Given their dominance of the galaxy number density, dwarf galaxies are central to our understanding of galaxy formation. While the incidence of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their impact on galaxy evolution have been ... -
Emergence of high-mass stars in complex fiber networks (EMERGE) : I. Early ALMA Survey: Observations and massive data reduction
(2024-07-05)(Abridged) Recent molecular surveys have revealed a rich gas organization of sonic-like fibers in all kind of environments prior to the formation of low- and high-mass stars. This paper introduces the EMERGE project aiming ... -
A matter of consequences : Understanding the effects of robot errors on people's trust in HRI
(2024-02-15)On reviewing the literature regarding acceptance and trust in human-robot interaction (HRI), there are a number of open questions that needed to be addressed in order to establish effective collaborations between humans ... -

The use of authentic teaching methods in tourism higher education: A case study of Level 6 university students
(2023-10)Tourism, Hospitality, and Events (THE) higher education has often been criticised for graduates who are poorly prepared for realities of the workforce. Authentic teaching is one method in which it is argued instructors can ... -
Advances, Mechanisms and Applications in Oxygen Evolution Electrocatalysis of Gold- driven
(2024-09-15)The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) plays a crucial role in electrochemical energy storage and conversion. Among different metal elements, gold (Au) stands out due to its high electronegativity and remarkable catalytic ... -
Some ways to see two in one
(MIT Press, 2013-09-01)We present work towards claryfing whether and how the idea of agents as "subsystems" of an underlying (artificial) universe can be captured formally. For this we propose formal notions of a universe, a decomposition into ... -
Molecular Genetics and Biochemistry of Quantitative Resistance against Pyrenopeziza brassicae in Brassica napus
(2023-06-14)The aim of this project was to better understand the molecular genetics and the biochemical components involved in quantitative resistance against Pyrenopeziza brassicae in Brassica napus. In addition, pathogenicity ... -
Mechanisms of the Game Transfer Phenomena: the Role of Cognitive, Emotional, and Personality Variables
(2024-05-29)Game Transfer Phenomena (GTP) refer to the involuntary transfer of video game experiences into the real world and can manifest as altered sensory perceptions, automatic mental processes, and behavioural responses with ... -
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic Star Formation Rate Density 300 Myr after the Big Bang
(2024-07-12)We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field, the deepest imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of ancillary Hubble Space Telescope optical images (five filters spanning 0.4–0.9 μm) and ... -
