Personal pronouns and person perception – Do paired and nonbinary pronouns evoke a normative gender bias?

Research on gender-fair language aims to identify language inclusive to a multitude of individuals, for example, increasing the visibility of women by using paired pronouns (he/she) instead of generic masculine forms (he). However, binary presentations like he/she might come with unwanted side effects and evoke what we label as normative gender bias. A normative gender bias is defined as when word

Neutron emission in ultraperipheral Pb-Pb collisions at sNN =5.02 TeV

In ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of relativistic nuclei without overlap of nuclear densities, the two nuclei are excited by the Lorentz-contracted Coulomb fields of their collision partners. In these UPCs, the typical nuclear excitation energy is below a few tens of MeV, and a small number of nucleons are emitted in electromagnetic dissociation (EMD) of primary nuclei, in contrast to complete

Search for Higgs boson pair production in association with a vector boson in pp collisions at √s=13TeV with the ATLAS detector

This paper reports a search for Higgs boson pair (hh) production in association with a vector boson (WorZ) using 139 fb - 1 of proton–proton collision data at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed in final states in which the vector boson decays leptonically (W→ℓν,Z→ℓℓ,νν with ℓ= e, μ) and the Higgs bosons each decay into a pair of b-quarks.

Production of pions, kaons, and protons as a function of the relative transverse activity classifier in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV

The production of π ±, K±, and (p ¯) p is measured in pp collisions at s = 13 TeV in different topological regions of the events. Particle transverse momentum (p T) spectra are measured in the “toward”, “transverse”, and “away” angular regions defined with respect to the direction of the leading particle in the event. While the toward and away regions contain the fragmentation products of the near

Dielectron production at midrapidity at low transverse momentum in peripheral and semi-peripheral Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV

The first measurement of the e+e− pair production at low lepton pair transverse momentum (p T,ee) and low invariant mass (m ee) in non-central Pb–Pb collisions at sNN = 5.02 TeV at the LHC is presented. The dielectron production is studied with the ALICE detector at midrapidity (|η e | < 0.8) as a function of invariant mass (0.4 ≤ m ee < 2.7 GeV/c 2) in the 50–70% and 70–90% centrality classes for

Emergent colon cancer and postoperative complications - risks and management

Background:Colorectal cancer in the third most diagnosed cancer in Sweden and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in Sweden and worldwide. 10-30% of the cases present as emergencies, of which 80% are caused by large bowel obstruction (LBO). Most of these patients undergo emergency resection which is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. To overcome the risk with e

Template-free generation and integration of functional 1D magnetic nanostructures

The direct integration of 1D magnetic nanostructures into electronic circuits is crucial for realizing their great potential as components in magnetic storage, logical devices, and spintronic applications. Here, we present a novel template-free technique for producing magnetic nanochains and nanowires using directed self-assembly of gas-phase-generated metallic nanoparticles. The 1D nanostructures

Forget the Toulmin Scheme, Remember the Epicheireme!

The Toulmin model is reminiscent of the classical argument structure called theepicheireme. Upon closer inspection they turn out to be fundamentally different.For the contemporary argumentation analyst or rhetorical critic, both structures are burdened with drawbacks. The Toulmin model suffers from unclarity regarding definitions of its elements and the epicheireme from divergent traditions in cla

Satanism : A Reader

While never a numerically significant religion, the idea of Satanism is intimately intertwined with a number of broader issues relevant for the study of religion and culture. The notion of devil-worshipping cults has been a surprisingly stable element of conspiracy theories, historically as well as in the present, and accusations of being in league with demonic forces is a recurring motif in relig

Aleister Crowley, "Hymn to Lucifer" (undated) and The Book of Thoth (1944)

This chapter studies Aleister Crowley’s undated poem “Hymn to Lucifer” and an extract from The Book of Thoth (1944), which deals with the tarot card The Devil. “Hymn to Lucifer” alludes to the state of humankind in the Garden of Eden before the fall, a condition that is described in negative terms and portrayed as restrictive and stagnant. Even if it happens at the price of death, the Devil repres

Blockchain Technology for Enhancing Sustainable Food Systems: A Consumer Perspective

This paper explores the potential of blockchain technology (BCT) in promoting sustainable food production and consumption (SFPC) from a consumer perspective. India, a significant global food producer, faces challenges related to affordability and food logistics due to transport and labour constraints. Food safety concerns, i.e., foodborne illnesses and quality issues, alongside unexpected events l

TOI-5678b: A 48-day transiting Neptune-mass planet characterized with CHEOPS and HARPS

Context. A large sample of long-period giant planets has been discovered thanks to long-term radial velocity surveys, but only a few dozen of these planets have a precise radius measurement. Transiting gas giants are crucial targets for the study of atmospheric composition across a wide range of equilibrium temperatures and, more importantly, for shedding light on the formation and evolution of pl

Innovative processing of brown seaweed for value-added products

The increasing depletion of fossil fuels, rising greenhouse gas emissions, and a growing global population have increased the need for sustainable food and energy sources. Traditional industrial biotechnology, which relies on plant-based feedstocks, competes with food production for arable land. In contrast, marine macroalgae do not require cultivatable land, irrigation by fresh water or fertilize
