Internet tool to support self-assessment and self-swabbing of sore throat: development and feasibility study by Lown, M, Smith, KA, Muller, I, Woods, C, Maund, E, Rogers, K, Becque, T, Hayward, G, Moore, M, Little, P, Glogowska, M, Hay, A, Stuart, B, Mantzourani, E, Wilcox, CR, Thompson, N, Francis, NA

“…A web-based tool that helps people assess their sore throat, through the use of clinical prediction rules, taking throat swabs or saliva samples, and taking throat photographs, has the potential to improve self-management and help identify those who are the most and least likely to benefit from antibiotics. <br><strong> Objective:<br></strong> We aimed to develop a web-based tool to help patients and parents or carers self-assess sore throat symptoms and take throat photographs, swabs, and saliva samples for diagnostic testing. …”

Disorder–property relationships in magnetic and pseudospin framework materials by Bulled, J

“…</p> <br> <p>In this thesis, I study the spin and pseudospin disorder in four framework materials—NaMn(HCOO)₃, Tb_{1−<em>x</em>}Y_<em>x</em>(HCOO)₃, [C(NH₂)₃]Mn(_{1−<em>x</em>})Fe_{2<em>x</em>/3}(HCOO)₃, and Cd(CN)₂. I investigate the links between their disordered structures and properties— namely, the magnetocaloric effect, heat capacity, ferrimagnetism, and thermal expansion. …”

Space weather radiation effects on geostationary satellite solid-state power amplifiers by Lohmeyer, W. Q., Cahoy, K. L.

“…Our observations suggest that internal charging from either past elevated radiation belt fluxes or some conditions related to relativistic electron enhancements (either causally or accidentally) is most likely responsible for the SSPA anomalies. We next consider the timing of these anomalies with respect to the local time (LT) and season. …”

Inclusions in calcite phantom crystals suggest role of clay minerals in dolomite formation by Farsang, Stefan, Pekker, Péter, Lampronti, Giulio I., Molnár, Zsombor, Milovský, Rastislav, Pósfai, Mihály, Ozdín, Daniel, Raub, Timothy D., Redfern, Simon Anthony Turner

“…While the micrometer-sized phyllosilicate and hematite particles were likely transported from the terra rossa and attached to the surface of growing calcite, the presence of phyllosilicates that are only a few atomic layers thick and of euhedral hematite, goethite, and dolomite crystals suggests that these particles precipitated along with the phantom calcite in situ, from an aqueous solution carrying terra rossa-derived and limestone-derived solutes. …”
