Safety in density (SID) potentially explains the safety in numbers (SIN) phenomenon by positing that ‘the SIN effect can be reproduced simply through encouraging behaviour that leads to the formation of higher-density cyclist groups’. The study further explores this hypothesis using event-based exposure, queues and groups of road users. Using three different definitions of encounters between road u

We discuss the associated cc¯ and bb¯ quark pairs production in the double-parton scattering (DPS) process in ultraperipheral (UPCs) AA collisions. We derive an analogue of the inclusive DPS pocket formula and the photon-energy dependent effective cross section considering an overlap between the hard SPS scatterings. We provide numerical predictions for the DPS cross sections for the cc¯ bb¯ produ

Estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer represents the majority (∼70%) of all breast malignancies. In this subgroup of breast cancers, endocrine therapies are effective both in the adjuvant and recurrent settings, although resistance remains a major issue. Several high-throughput approaches have been used to elucidate mechanisms of resistance and to derive potential predictive markers or alt

One of the major ways in which economic inequality can increase is when the development of wages of ordinary workers trail productivity and GDP growth, meaning that the increasing riches fall in the hand of other social groups (top employees, owners of land and capital). This paper investigates the relationship between wages and GDP in Denmark, Norway and Sweden from 1800 to 1910, using wage serie

The structure of real and virtual photons has been studied in electron-proton scattering processes producing di-jet events at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations. Data have been compared to next-to-leading order QCD calculations and to the predictions of Monte Carlo generators based on the DGLAP and CCFM formalisms for describing the parton dynamics.

Vi forskare som står bakom den här artikeln har tidigare kritiserat debatten kring nät- och dataspelsberoende för att vara missvisande. Vi menar att nättid eller dataspelande i sig inte har något att göra med vare sig försämrade studieresultat eller rubbad dygnsrytm. Forskningen har på senare år antytt att överdrivet dataspelande bör ses som ett uttryck för underliggande problem, på samma sätt som

Det var mycket vi inte trodde oss veta innan en amerikansk dataanalytiker tog sin hårddisk och flydde undan världens kanske mäktigaste underrättelsetjänst. Man skulle också kunna lägga till ett ”ännu”. För det kan förstås ändras med tiden. Ingen lyssnar på vad vi säger till varandra. Ingen läser vad vi skriver till varandra. Ännu. Puh.

This paper investigates the evolution of income inequality in Spain during its transition to democracy, suggesting a method for the correction of under-reporting of earnings and profits in the Household Budget Surveys' data. The contribution is twofold: the methodological proposal, based on income-expenditure discrepancy and scaling-up to National Accounts, improves on previous work and can be use

Caveolae are small flask-like invaginations on the plasma membrane that contain both G-proteins aim G-protein coupled receptors. Consequently, these structures have been implicated to serve a role in transmembrane signaling. Bradykinin (BK) is a potent vasoactive peptide that acts through B2 BK receptors to stimulate both Gaq and Gai. DDT1 MF2 smooth muscle cells were used to show that eaveolae co

In this report, we show that the vasoactive peptide agonist bradykinin (BK) when bound to B2 BK receptors on DDT1 MF-2 smooth muscle cells promotes the recruitment and sequestration of the occupied receptors and the receptor- coupled G-protein α subunits Gα(q) and Gα(i) in caveolae. Association of ligand receptor complexes and Gα subunits with caveolae was indicated by their co-enrichment on densi
