(Sissa Medialab, 2023-12-27) -
Impact of vaccination on the association of COVID-19 with cardiovascular diseases: An OpenSAFELY cohort study
(Springer Science and Business Media LLCEngland, 2024-03-11)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Infection with SARS-CoV-2 is associated with an increased risk of arterial and venous thrombotic events, but the implications of vaccination for this increased risk are uncertain. ... -
Symplectic lattice gauge theories in the grid framework: Approaching the conformal window
(American Physical Society (APS), 2023-11-20)Symplectic gauge theories coupled to matter fields lead to symmetry enhancement phenomena that have potential applications in such diverse contexts as composite Higgs, top partial compositeness, strongly interacting dark ... -
First-order phase transitions in Yang-Mills theories and the density of state method
(American Physical Society (APS), 2023-10-23)When studied at finite temperature, Yang-Mills theories in 3+1 dimensions display the presence of confinement/deconfinement phase transitions, which are known to be of first order - the SU(2) gauge theory being the ... -
A distinctive new species of Protozantaena Perkins, 1997 from lowland Namaqualand, South Africa (Coleoptera, Hydraenidae)
(Magnolia PressNew Zealand, 2024-03-14)Protozantaena gigantea sp. nov. is described, based on specimens collected from residual pools in a drying seasonal river in Namaqualand, Northern Cape Province, South Africa. Morphologically, the new species appears to ... -
Coastal greening of grey infrastructure: an update on the state-of-the-art
(Emerald, 2024-02-08)In the marine environment, greening of grey infrastructure (GGI) is a rapidly growing field that attempts to encourage native marine life to colonize marine artificial structures to enhance biodiversity, thereby promoting ... -
To what extent can decommissioning options for marine artificial structures move us toward environmental targets?
(Elsevier BVEngland, 2024-01-15)Switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy is key to international energy transition efforts and the move toward net zero. For many nations, this requires decommissioning of hundreds of oil and gas infrastructure in ... -
The world must rethink plans for ageing oil and gas platforms
(Springer Science and Business Media LLCEngland, 2024-03-07)Earth’s oceans are awash with ageing energy infrastructure. A change in the law is needed to ensure that these structures are decommissioned in ways that maximize environmental and societal benefits. -
The global impact of offshore wind farms on ecosystem services
(Elsevier, 2024-03)Understanding the global impact of offshore wind farms (OWF) on biodiversity and ecosystem services (ES) is crucial in developing sustainable energy transition pathways. This study takes a holistic approach, coupling a ... -
Constraining Central Himalayan (Nepal) Fault Geometry Through Integrated Thermochronology and Thermokinematic Modeling
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2020-09)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Constraining the subsurface structural geometry of the central Himalaya continues to prove difficult, even after the 2015 Gorkha earthquake and the resulting insights into the ...
