The battle for Asia in crude oil markets: an easier road ahead for India? by Sen, A

“…Even though the drop in prices is unlikely to last (given the high cost on the supply side) and prices are likely to pick back up to at least the US$80–100 per barrel range in the coming years, India will remain in a privileged position compared to a few years ago, as the continued growth of US tight oil means producers from all around the world will still focus on Asia to sell their crude. …”

Strengthening, exhaustification, and rational inference by Asherov, Daniel, Fox, Danny, Katzir, Roni

“…By varying the scenarios in which an expression such as “Pick the crate with a banana” is evaluated, we show that the strengthening of “crate with a banana” within the scope of the definite article parallels the entailments of “crate with only a banana” (with an overt exhaustivity operator, ‘only’). …”

Electronic structure of paramagnetic transition metal complexes by Al-Ameed, K

“…In Chapter 3, we address the question of redox-dependent spin transitions in triangular iron complexes. Experiments have shown that one-electron reduction of a pyrazolate-bridged Fe^III₃ cluster drives a transition from high- to low-spin configurations at all three metal centres. …”

Search for diphoton resonances in the 66 to 110 GeV mass range using pp collisions at s = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector by Aad, G, Abbott, B, Abeling, K, Abicht, NJ, Abidi, SH, Aboulhorma, A, Abramowicz, H, Abreu, H, Abulaiti, Y, Acharya, BS, Adam Bourdarios, C, Adamczyk, L, Addepalli, SV, Addison, MJ, Adelman, J, Adiguzel, A, Adye, T, Affolder, AA, Afik, Y, Agaras, MN, Agarwala, J, Aggarwal, A, Agheorghiesei, C, Ahmad, A, Barr, AJ, Bortoletto, D, Bruckler, TL, Celli, F, Chen, M, Conroy, EI, Cooper-Sarkar, AM, Draguet, MA, Eberwein, GH, Frost, JA, Gallas, EJ, Grundy, JC, Gwenlan, C, Harris, YT, Hays, CP, Huffman, TB, Iizawa, T, Karava, K, Koch, SF, Li, Z, Nagai, K, Nedic, L, Nickerson, RB, Pacey, HA, Rossi, E, Ruggiero, A, Schopf, E, Shipsey, IPJ, Smith, HA, Veliscek, I, Viehhauser, GHA, Wei, Y, Weidberg, AR, Yan, S
