Genetic, natal, and spatial drivers of social phenotypes in wild great tits by Satarkar, D, Sepil, I, Sheldon, BC

“…We used a multi-generational pedigree and social data for 1823 individuals with over 800,000 observations from a long-term monitored great tit population.</li> <li>Animal models indicated minimal narrow-sense heritability (2%&ndash;3%) in group size choice, further reduced when the spatial location was considered, which itself explains a substantial 30% of the observed variation. …”

Mixing and warming characterisation of cryogenic hydrogen jets through proper orthogonal decomposition by Tretola, G, Shen, Li, Leach, F, Vogiatzaki, K

“…Hydrogen is being increasingly used as an alternative fuel for vehicles and aircraft propulsion. For long-distance transportation and large-scale energy storage, liquid hydrogen or cryo-compressed hydrogen with typical densities of 70 g/L, is more promising than warm compressed gaseous hydrogen. …”

Decentralised finance and automated market making by Monga, M

Interplanetary space weather effects on Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter avalanche photodiode performance. by Clements, E. B., Carlton, A. K., Joyce, C. J., Schwadron, N. A., Spence, H. E., Sun, X., Cahoy, K.

“…We did not find any evidence to support radiation as the cause of changes in detector threshold voltage during radiation storms, both for transient detector noise and long-term average detector noise, suggesting that the approximately 1.3 cm thick shielding (a combination of titanium and beryllium) of the LOLA detectors is sufficient for SiAPDs on interplanetary missions with radiation environments similar to what the LRO experienced (559 cGy of radiation over 4 years).…”

Discounting from a distance: the effect of pronoun drop on intertemporal decisions by Chen, Josie I., He, Tai-Sen

“…Intertemporal decisions—trade-offs between immediate and delayed rewards—are ubiquitous in daily life, and the ability to resist the emotional temptation to choose immediate gratification predicts long-term economic outcomes. Based on existing research on self-distancing—a psychological technique that cues people to assess their experiences from afar and has been shown to facilitate emotion regulation—we propose a novel, unobtrusive linguistic self-distancing strategy through a subtle pronoun drop and examine its impact on intertemporal decisions. …”
