The Novel Phages phiCD5763 and phiCD2955 Represent Two Groups of Big Plasmidial Siphoviridae Phages of Clostridium difficile
(2018-01-22)
Until recently, Clostridium difficile phages were limited to Myoviruses and Siphoviruses of medium genome length (32–57 kb). Here we report the finding of phiCD5763, a Siphovirus with a large extrachromosomal circular ...
Was Proxima captured by alpha Centauri A and B?
(2018-01-21)
The nearest stellar system consists of the stars Proxima, Alpha Centauri A and B and at least one planet Proxima b. The habitability of Proxima b and any other planets are likely to be significantly influenced by the orbital ...
The New Galaxy Evolution Paradigm Revealed by the Herschel Surveys
(2018-01-21)
The Herschel Space Observatory has revealed a very different galaxyscape from that shown by optical surveys which presents a challenge for galaxy-evolution models. The Herschel surveys reveal (1) that there was rapid galaxy ...
WISDOM Project - III. Molecular gas measurement of the supermassive black hole mass in the barred lenticular galaxy NGC4429
(2018-01-21)
As part of the mm-Wave Interferometric Survey of Dark Object Masses project we present an estimate of the mass of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the nearby fast-rotating early-type galaxy NGC4429, that is barred and ...
Assessment of full life-cycle air emissions of alternative shipping fuels
(2018-01-20)
There is a need for alternative fuels in the shipping sector for two main motivations: to deliver a reduction in local pollutants and comply with existing regulation; and to mitigate climate change and cut greenhouse gas ...
Interface stability between bare, Mn-Co spinel coated AISI 441 stainless steel and a diopside-based glass-ceramic sealant
(2018-01-18)
This study is focused on a diopside-based glass-ceramic sealant for solid oxide fuel cells and its compatibility with AISI 441 stainless steel interconnect. The morphological and chemical stability with both bare and Mn–Co ...
Kant and Hegel on Purposive Action
(2018-01-16)
This essay discusses Kant and Hegel’s philosophies of action and the place of action within the general structure of their practical philosophy. We begin by briefly noting a few things that both unite and distinguish the ...
A novel hybrid energy system combined with solar-road and soil-regenerator: Dynamic model and operational performance
(2018-01-15)
Solar roads are emergent and huge energy source in traffic domains. To improve the energy utilization efficiency of a solar road, a novel solar-road and soil-regenerator hybrid energy system in combination with conventional ...
Photometric redshifts for the next generation of deep radio continuum surveys - I. Template fitting
(2018-01-11)
We present a study of photometric redshift performance for galaxies and active galactic nuclei detected in deep radio continuum surveys. Using two multiwavelength data sets, over the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey Boötes and ...
Commercialisation of eHealth Innovations in the Market of UK Healthcare Sector: A Framework for Sustainable Business Model.
(2018-01-10)
Demographic trends with extended life expectancy are placing increasing pressures on the UK state-funded healthcare budgets. eHealth innovations are expected to facilitate new avenues for cost-effective and safe methods ...
