Optimizing Wildfire Suppression: A branch-and-price-and-cut approach by Wachspress, Jacob

“…We formulate a two-sided set partitioning model on time-space-rest networks for crew assignments and time-state networks for fire damage, with linking constraints between both; this representation can encode a broad class of non-linear wildfire spread models and diverse suppression objectives. …”

Adeno-associated virus mediated rhodopsin delivery in preventing secondary cone degeneration in rhodopsin knockout mice by Dauletbekov, D

“…<p>Rhodopsin-linked retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the most common form of autosomal dominant RP, an inherited retinal degeneration, in which rod degeneration is followed by secondary cone loss leading to loss of vision and blindness. …”

Partial grounding, identity, and nothing-over-and-aboveness by Werner, Jonas

“…It will turn out that the related question whether partial grounding and nothing-over-and-aboveness yield full grounding pertains to considerations concerning how finely factual content is individuated. The relationship between non-augmented partial grounding and nothing-over-and-aboveness crucially depends on whether one works with a representational or a worldly notion of grounding and how coarsely grained one takes worldly grounds to be.…”

Spin defects in hBN assisted by metallic nanotrenches for quantum sensing by Cai, Hongbing, Ru, Shihao, Jiang, Zhengzhi, Eng, John Jun Hong, He, Ruihua, Li, Fuli, Miao, Yansong, Zúñiga-Pérez, Jesús, Gao, Weibo

“…By monitoring the reflectance spectrum of the resonators as additional layers of hBN are transferred, we have optimized the overall hBN/nanotrench optical response, maximizing thereby the luminescence enhancement. Based on these finely tuned heterostructures, we achieved an enhanced DC magnetic field sensitivity as high as 6 × 10-5 T/Hz1/2.…”
