Salivary and plasma cortisol and testosterone responses to interval and tempo runs and a bodyweight-only circuit session in endurance-trained men
(2014-04-21)
The aim of this study was to examine the acute response to plasma and salivary cortisol and testosterone to three training protocols. Ten trained endurance athletes participated in three experimental trials, such as interval ...
MOA-2011-BLG-262Lb : A sub-earth-mass moon orbiting a gas giant primary or a high velocity planetary system in the galactic bulge
(2014-04-20)
We present the first microlensing candidate for a free-floating exoplanet-exomoon system, MOA-2011-BLG-262, with a primary lens mass of M host ∼ 4 Jupiter masses hosting a sub-Earth mass moon. The argument for an exomoon ...
Efficient space-frequency block coded pilot-aided channel estimation method for multiple-input-multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems over mobile frequency-selective fading channels
(2014-04-17)
An iterative pilot-aided channel estimation technique for space-frequency block coded (SFBC) multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems is proposed. Traditionally, when channel ...
The Chemical Evolution of Fluorine in the Bulge - High-resolution K-band spectra of giants in three fields
(2014-04-17)
Possible main formation sites of F in the Universe include AGB stars, the {\nu}-process in Type II SNe, and/or W-R stars. The importance of the W-R stars has theoretically been questioned and they are probably not needed ...
UKSC Conference: Developing Resilience as a Pathway to Health
(2014-04-16)
A recent event held by the United Kingdom Standing Conference on Specialist Community Public Health Nurse Education focused on building resilience, not only in the community but among practitioners themselves
Do Interventions Designed to Support Shared Decision-Making Reduce Health Inequalities? : A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2014-04-15)
Background: Increasing patient engagement in healthcare has become a health policy priority. However, there has been concern that promoting supported shared decision-making could increase health inequalities. Objective: ...
Neutron-induced fission cross section of U 234 measured at the CERN n-TOF facility
(2014-04-15)
The neutron-induced fission cross section of U234 has been measured at the CERN n-TOF facility relative to the standard fission cross section of U235 from 20 keV to 1.4 MeV and of U238 from 1.4 to 200 MeV. A fast ionization ...
Parametric analysis of influencing factors in Phase Change Material Wallboard (PCMW)
(2014-04-15)
Incorporating Phase Change Materials (PCMs) into traditional building structures has been considered as an effective way to reduce the mismatch between energy supply and demand and in turn to minimise energy consumption ...
Measurements of neutron cross sections for advanced nuclear energy systems at n-TOF (CERN)
(2014-04-14)
The n-TOF facility operates at CERN with the aim of addressing the request of high accuracy nuclear data for advanced nuclear energy systems as well as for nuclear astrophysics. Thanks to the features of the neutron beam, ...
Classification of irritant/ non-irritant and corrosive chemicals using excised human skin in vitro
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-04-14)
Any chemical that is applied to the skin has the potential to induce a skin reaction. These reactions are complicated and are difficult to fully replicate in vitro and may exhibit species variations when reproduced in vivo. ...
