Ongoing developments in science and technology require temperature measurements at increasingly higher spatial resolutions. Nanocrystals with temperature-sensitive luminescence are a popular thermometer for these applications ...

It is commonly believed that the most efficient way to pack a finite number of equal-sized spheres is by arranging them tightly in a cluster. However, mathematicians have conjectured that a linear arrangement may actually ...

Fluctuation measurements are important sources of information on the mechanism of particle production at LHC energies. This article reports the first experimental results on third-order cumulants of the net-proton distributions ...

This article reports measurements of the angle between differently defined jet axes in pp collisions at s = 5.02 TeV carried out by the ALICE Collaboration. Charged particles at midrapidity are clustered into jets with ...

Metal-ligand cooperation can facilitate the activation of chemical bonds, opening reaction pathways of interest for catalyst development. In this context, olefins occupying the central position of a diphosphine pincer ...

Students tend to avoid effective but effortful study strategies. One potential explanation could be that high-effort experiences may not give students an immediate feeling of learning, which may affect their perceptions ...

In April 2023, an interview took place with professor Berteke Waaldijk (Liberal Arts, UU) and Dr. Leni van Strien (Celtic Studies, UU, retired) about the interdisciplinary and female solidarity that gave rise to the creation ...

Background: Given the estimated high rate of unintended pregnancies, it is important to investigate long-term effects on psychological distress in women carrying an unintended pregnancy to term. However, research into ...

Neurodegenerative dementias are progressive diseases that cause neuronal network breakdown in different brain regions often because of accumulation of misfolded proteins in the brain extracellular matrix, such as amyloids ...
