Physical Properties of Massive Compact Starburst Galaxies with Extreme Outflows
(2021-12-29)
We present results on the nature of extreme ejective feedback episodes and the physical conditions of a population of massive (M * ∼ 1011 M ⊙), compact starburst galaxies at z = 0.4–0.7. We use data from Keck/NIRSPEC, SDSS, ...
Optimal Fractional-Order PI Control Design for a Variable Speed PMSG-Based Wind Turbine
(2021-12-29)
This paper focusses on the design of optimal control strategies for a variable-speed wind energy system based on Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). The fractional order PI controller, denoted PIλ, is an extension ...
The Influence of Judo Kata Exercise on Adolescents
(2021-12-27)
Psychological problems that occur in adolescents relate in part to concentration, which in turn can negatively affect education and development (Tkalec, 2012). In Croatia, various methods are used within teaching to help ...

Has robotic prostatectomy determined the fall of the laparoscopic approach?
(2021-12-25)
Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP) has revolutionised the surgical management of localised Prostate Cancer in the modern era. The surgeon is provided with greater precision, more versatile dexterity and an ...
Diet Quality Index for older adults (DQI-65) : development and use in predicting adherence to dietary recommendations and health markers in the UK National Diet and Nutrition Survey
(2021-12-22)
Diet quality indexes (DQIs) are useful tools for assessing diet quality in relation to health and guiding delivery of personalised nutritional advice, however existing DQIs are limited in their applicability to older adults ...
Finding Rare Quasars: VLA Snapshot Continuum Survey of FRI Quasar Candidates Selected from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS)
(2021-12-22)
The radiative and jet power in active galactic nuclei is generated by accretion of material on to supermassive galactic-centre black holes. For quasars, where the radiative power is by definition very high, objects with ...

(2021-12-17)
Deficits in empathy have been considered hallmarks in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) but are also considered to underlie antisocial behaviour associated with individuals with callous unemotional traits ...
PI3Kδ inhibition prevents IL33, ILC2s and inflammatory eosinophils in persistent airway inflammation
(2021-12-17)
Abstract: Background: Phosphoinositide-3-kinase-delta (PI3Kδ) inhibition is a promising therapeutic approach for inflammatory conditions due to its role in leucocyte proliferation, migration and activation. However, the ...
