Accuracy of second order perturbation theory in the polaron and variational polaron frames by Lee, Chee Kong, Moix, Jeremy, Cao, Jianshu

“…In the study of open quantum systems, the polaron transformation has recently attracted a renewed interest as it offers the possibility to explore the strong system-bath coupling regime. Despite this interest, a clear and unambiguous analysis of the regimes of validity of the polaron transformation is still lacking. …”

Point-Defect Segregation and Space-Charge Potentials at the Σ5(310)[001] Grain Boundary in Ceria by Usler, Adrian L., Heelweg, Henrik J., De Souza, Roger A., Genreith-Schriever, Annalena R.

“…Nevertheless, the space-charge potential in the restricted-equilibrium regime can be described well with an empirical model employing a single effective oxygen-vacancy segregation energy.…”

Orbital stability in a classical pilot-wave system by Liu, Nicholas Z.

“…We conduct an analytical investigation into the stability of circular orbits using a generalised theoretical framework that allows for an exploration of classical pilotwave dynamics both inside and outside the experimentally accessible parameter regime. The exploration of parameter regimes beyond those accessible with the hydrodynamic system reveals much richer orbital dynamics. …”

Shi'ism, politics, and identity in Bahrain by Tan, Feng Qin

“…A 'naive' view of identity sees it as straightforwardly and deterministically causative, but if so the 2011 Pearl Uprising in Bahrain appears a paradox - a primarily secular episode of political contestation in a country with a Shi'a majority, against a Sunni dominated regime, in a political realm with a Shi'a Islamist-dominated opposition. …”

Investigating the impact of growth arrest mechanisms on tumour growth and responses to radiotherapy and hyperthermia by Colson, C

“…In each regime, we determine the biological processes that may underpin positive and negative treatment outcomes and assess which treatment (RT, HT or RT + HT) and dosing regimen maximise the reduction in tumour burden. …”

Light-matter interactions in atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides by Zhao, Jiaxin

“…The physical processes in these three typical time regimes are dominated by free carrier screening effect, Coulombic exciton-exciton interactions and Auger photocarrier generation, respectively. …”

An experimental investigation on finite wings with leading-edge protuberances by Teo, Marcus Jun Jie

“…Fluid flow characteristics of wings with leading edge tubercles were experimentally investigated in a water tunnel at a Reynolds number of 13292, falling under the transitional Reynolds regime. This experiment is meant to be continuation of a pre-existing experimental study examining fluid flow characteristics of wings but with differing dimensions. …”

Replacement of Artemia with Moina micrura in the rearing of freshwater shrimp larvae by Alam, M. J., Ang, K. J., Begum, M.

“…The control treatment consisted of feeding Artemia throughout the rearing period (regime A), while in the other treatments the onset of Moina feeding was arbitrarily chosen at larval stages iv (A3M), vi (A5M), viii (A7M) and x (A9M). …”

Efficacy of cannabinoids for the prophylaxis of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting—a systematic review and meta-analysis by Chow, R, Basu, A, Kaur, J, Hui, D, Im, J, Prsic, E, Boldt, G, Lock, M, Eng, L, Ng, TL, Zimmermann, C, Scotte, F

“…However, there was no difference between cannabinoid and active treatment alternatives (most using dated single-agent regimens) for any outcomes. A recent phase II/III trial demonstrated superior efficacy of THC:CBD for secondary prevention of CINV when used as adjunctive therapy alongside modern antiemetic regimens, albeit mostly without olanzapine. …”

Modelling the rheology of living cell cytoplasm: poroviscoelasticity and fluid-to-solid transition by Thekkethil, Namshad, Köry, Jakub, Guo, Ming, Stewart, Peter S., Hill, Nicholas A., Luo, Xiaoyu

“…Experiments indicate that cell cytoplasm can exhibit both elastic and viscous characteristics in different regimes, while the transport of fluid (cytosol) through the cross-linked filamentous scaffold (cytoskeleton) is reminiscent of mass transfer by diffusion through a porous medium. …”
