A search is presented for a heavy scalar (H) or pseudo-scalar (A) predicted by the two-Higgs-doublet models, where the H/A is produced in association with a top-quark pair (tt¯H/A), and with the H/A decaying into a tt¯ pair. The full LHC Run 2 proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment is used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139fb-1. Events are selected requiring
INTRODUCTION: Amyloid-induced tauopathy drives clinical decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Because age and sex shape tau trajectories, defining patient-centered amyloid thresholds for tauopathy onset could facilitate pre-tauopathy AD identification and aid treatment decisions and prognosis. METHODS: By including two samples (Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative [ADNI, n = 301]; and 18F-AV
In this paper, we investigate a Multi-layer Aerial system for GenAI inference at the Edge (MAGE). Therein, ground user equipments (UEs) request image synthesis services from a remote base station (BS) that leverages the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM) for image generation. Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are deployed to serve the UEs for relaying their images and prompts to the BS. To reduce
The production of fast pyrolysis bio-oil (FPBO) from secondary biomass is a promising technique for the production of liquid biofuels. However, the resulting FPBO is often viscous and chemically unstable, requiring significant upgrading while also being difficult to work with. To overcome this issue, FPBO can be hydrotreated using slurry hydrotreatment, which has a long history as a processing tec
Recent years have seen an explosion in social media in our everyday lives, and a corresponding increase in social media research in IS. As social media researchers, we are intrigued by the problem of virtuality and context in social media research, and how we might apply reflexive research principles to such settings. In social media, the absence of a setting's real physical boundaries (to a large
Facebook is a frequently used Computer Mediated Environment (CME) for students and others to build social connections, with identities and deposited self-expression. Its widespread use makes it appropriate for consideration as an educational tool; though one that does not yet have clear guidelines for use. Whether a social networking site can be used for educational objectives remains largely unex
This chapter addresses the organization known as the Satanic Reds, which was founded in the latter half of the 1990s by Tani Jantsang and Philip Marsh. The organization has been described as a ”virtual audience cult,” and even though it is clear that several people have contributed in shaping it, the organization has been especially influenced by its two founders. Jantsang and Marsh have spoken fo
The purpose of the thesis was to design a new rotor blade for the KTH test turbine according to present design guidelines for gas turbines manufactured at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery in Finspång. Stage one of a real gas turbine was used as a reference for the aerodynamic design providing a starting point for the project. Using similar gas conditions the new rotor blade was optimized with reg
Aviation remains a problematic sector of the global economy in times of climate emergency. Grounded in the ideology of reconfiguration, we adopt a system transitions perspective to address high emissions leisure travel. Our focus falls on the marketing communications of airlines as a critical component in the prevailing sociotechnical regime. Thematic analysis of the e-mail marketing communication
Ice-core timescales are vital for the understanding of past climate; hence they should be updated whenever significant amounts of new data become available. Here, the Greenland ice-core chronology GICC05 was revised for the last 3835 years by synchronizing six deep ice cores and three shallow ice cores from the central Greenland ice sheet. A new method was applied by combining automated counting o
Atmospheric inversion approaches are expected to play a critical role in future observation-based monitoring systems for surface fluxes of greenhouse gases (GHGs), pollutants and other trace gases. In the past decade, the research community has developed various inversion software, mainly using variational or ensemble Bayesian optimization methods, with various assumptions on uncertainty structure
Creating a more sustainable society is increasingly an urban challenge (Pincetl 2010). Upwards of 50 per cent of the world’s population currently dwell in cities, and this figure is forecast to rise dramatically over the coming decades (Grimm et al. 2008). Cities both concentrate the activities that produce carbon emissions, and suffer disproportionately from their negative impacts such as air pol
Background: The aim of the study was to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of a suture-mediated vascular closure device to perform hemostasis after an axillary artery access during endovascular procedures on the aortic valve, the aorta and its side branches. Methods: A physician-initiated, international, multicenter, retrospective registry was designed to evaluate the success rate (VARC-2 re
Recent years have seen a sharply rising interest in the scientific area dedicated to the study of the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) research and applications (AI4CBT for brevity). Yet, little is known about how this interest is realized and hence the overall status, prospects, and possible challenges of AI4CBT as a field (e.g. breadth of the field, key
INTRODUCTION: Biomarkers play a crucial role in understanding Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis and treatment effects. However, comparing biomarker measures without standardization and appreciating their magnitude relative to the disease can be challenging. METHODS: To address this issue, we propose the CentiMarker approach, similar to Centiloid, which provides a standardized scale between nor
The goal of this article is to propose, through the use of GIS software, an interdisciplinary method to suggest new touristic flows after the Covid-19 pandemic. Specifically, the aim is to identify those sites of cultural and landscape interest that are little known but with great artistic, cultural, historical and environmental value that could give new vigour to the tourism sector. In the first
Myths, religious beliefs, and symbols are crucial components of ethnicity. PKK as a nationalist separatist armed organization- intensively uses them to construct a Kurdish identity which is compatible with its ideology as well as its objectives to mobilize Kurds and to galvanize their support. This thesis seeks to describe how PKK –as a militant organization- has instrumentalised Islamic related t
