Numerical simulations of laser-driven experiments of ion acceleration in stochastic magnetic fields by Moczulski, K, Wen, H, Campbell, T, Scopatz, A, Arrowsmith, C, Bott, A, Sarkar, S, Schekochihin, A, Gregori, G

“…We present numerical simulations used to interpret laser-driven plasma experiments at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. The mechanisms by which non-thermal particles are accelerated, in astrophysical environments e.g., the solar wind, supernova remnants, and gamma ray bursts, is a topic of intense study. …”

Line inductance stability operation domain assessment for weak grids with multiple constant power loads by Wang, Rui, Sun, Qiuye, Ma, Dazhong, Qin, Dehao, Gui, Yonghao, Wang, Peng

“…Based on this, the conventional impedance-based stability operation point assessment approaches should be expanded into stability domain assessment approach considering the line inductance variation. Therefore, the stability-oriented line inductance stability domain assessment approach for weak grids with CPLs is proposed in this paper. …”

Persistent elevation of intrathecal pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to multiple sclerosis-like cortical demyelination and neurodegeneration by James, Rachel E., Schalks, Renee, Browne, Eleanor, Eleftheriadou, Ioanna, Munoz, Carmen Picon, Mazarakis, Nicholas D., Reynolds, Richard

“…Here we tested the hypothesis that persistent production of these cytokines in the meningeal compartment and diffusion into underlying GM can drive chronic MS-like GM pathology. Lentiviral transfer vectors were injected into the sagittal sulcus of DA rats to deliver continuous expression of TNF + IFNγ transgenes in the meninges and the resulting neuropathology analysed after 1 and 2 months. …”
