Cross section of α-induced reactions on iridium isotopes obtained from thick target yield measurement for the astrophysical γ process
(2018-01-10)
The stellar reaction rates of radiative α-capture reactions on heavy isotopes are of crucial importance for the γ process network calculations. These rates are usually derived from statistical model calculations, which ...
`Oumuamua as a messenger from the Local Association
(2018-01-09)
With a hyperbolic trajectory around the Sun, 'Oumuamua is the first confirmed interstellar object. However, its origin is poorly known. By simulating the orbits of 0.23 million local stars, we find 109 encounters with ...
Azad: Design and Practice

Designing Resilience of the Built Environment to Extreme Weather Events
(2018-01-09)
Built environment comprises of a multitude of complex networks of buildings and processes in and between buildings. The paper looks at resilience design on three different levels: the building, the site, and the region. ...
Skin thermophysiological effects of 448 kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency in healthy adults : A randomised crossover study and comparison with Pulsed Shortwave Therapy
(2018-01-08)
Radiofrequency-based electrophysical agents (EPA) have been used in therapy practice over several decades (e.g., shortwave therapies). Currently, there is insufficient evidence supporting such devices operating below ...
Role of rivaroxaban in the management of atrial fibrillation: insights from clinical practice.
(2018-01-08)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, and it leads to significant morbidity and mortality, predominantly from ischemic stroke. Vitamin K antagonists, mainly warfarin, have been used for ...
Association between Diet-Quality Scores, Adiposity, Total Cholesterol and Markers of Nutritional Status in European Adults : Findings from the Food4Me Study
(2018-01-06)
Diet-quality scores (DQS), which are developed across the globe, are used to define adherence to specific eating patterns and have been associated with risk of coronary heart disease and type-II diabetes. We explored the ...
Learning nonwords: The Hebb repetition effect as a model of word learning
(2018-01-03)
Page and Norris [(2008). Is there a common mechanism underlying word-form learning and the Hebb repetition effect? Experimental data and a modelling framework. In A. Thorn & M. P. A. Page (Eds.), Interactions between ...
Event Based Prospective Memory and Inhibition in Children with Language Disorder
(2018-01-03)
An increasing body of research suggests executive functioning (EF) interacts in language development and inhibitory control has been found to be implicated in language disorder (previously known as specific language ...
