Building fabric improvement and heat pump deployment: a set of policy conundrums by Killip, G, Topouzi, M, Fawcett, T

“…Setting minimum quality standards for deployment, and a policy framework which allows for local decision-making within nationally (and internationally) determined targets is likely to be part of the answer. This paper sets out the challenge for policy in devolution and coordination, providing a set of unresolved conundrums that future policy needs to meet. …”

Overexpression of 4EBP1, p70S6K, Akt1 or Akt2 differentially promotes Coxsackievirus B3-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells by Xing, X., Huang, L., Li, X., Li, Z., Zhou, W., Tian, L., Chen, J., Chen, C., Ma, Xing, Yang, Z.

“…And then, we established the stable transfected cell lines. Next, after CVB3 infection, apoptosis in different groups was determined by flow cytometry; the expressions of Bim, Bax, caspase-9 and caspase-3 were examined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and western blot analysis; the expression of CVB3 mRNA and viral capsid protein VP1 were also analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, western blot analysis and immunofluorescence, respectively. …”

Space charge induced beam loss on a high intensity proton synchrotron by Pine, B

“…Beam will be lost on injection to a synchrotron and may be lost on extraction or in transfer lines. Non-linearities in the accelerator lattice can introduce driving terms for resonant beam behaviour. …”

Unexpected anthropogenic emission decreases explain recent atmospheric mercury concentration declines by Feinberg, Aryeh, Selin, Noelle E., Braban, Christine F., Chang, Kai-Lan, Custódio, Danilo, Jaffe, Daniel A., Kyllönen, Katriina, Landis, Matthew S., Leeson, Sarah R., Luke, Winston, Molepo, Koketso M., Murovec, Marijana, Nerentorp Mastromonaco, Michelle G., Aspmo Pfaffhuber, Katrine, Rüdiger, Julian, Sheu, Guey-Rong, St. Louis, Vincent L.

“…Faster declines in 95th percentile Hg0 values than median values in Europe, North America, and East Asian measurement stations corroborate that the likely cause is a decline in nearby anthropogenic emissions rather than background legacy reemissions. …”
