This paper presents measurements of top-antitop quark pair (tt¯) production in association with additional b-jets. The analysis utilises 140 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Fiducial cross-sections are extracted in a final state featuring one electron and one muon, with at least three or four b

The stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C(CH4)) and hydrogen (δ2H(CH4)) in methane (CH4) from atmospheric air samples provide a tracer that can help distinguish the relative contribution of emission sources. These can be continuously measured at atmospheric monitoring stations by optical isotope ratio spectrometer (OIRS) instruments, providing data that is complementary to isotope ratio mass spect

Many extensions of the Standard Model, including those with dark matter particles, propose new mediator particles that decay into hadrons. This paper presents a search for such low mass narrow resonances decaying into hadrons using 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data recorded with the ATLAS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The resonances are searched for in the invariant mass sp

Background The global prevalence of congenital heart disease (CHD) is increasing. Research on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) predominantly originates from high-income countries, resulting in an incomplete understanding of the true global burden of CHD from the patient perspective. Therefore, we described perceived health, psychological distress and quality of life (QoL) in a large sample of adul

A search is performed for light, spin-0 bosons decaying into two photons in the 66 to 110 GeV mass range, using 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV produced by the Large Hadron Collider and collected by the ATLAS detector. Multivariate analysis techniques are used to define event categories that improve the sensitivity to new resonances beyond the Standard Model. A model-independent

INTRODUCTION: Sexual life is important for many people and may be limited by breathlessness. We evaluated associations between breathlessness and individuals' perceived satisfaction with sexual lives and explored mediating factors in this relationship. METHODS: A cross-sectional, online, population-based survey of Australian adults with key demographics (age, sex, rurality, state/territory) reflec

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize and critically interpret new evidence (from the last 12-18 months) on the associations between obesity and breathlessness, including epidemiology, physiological mechanisms, diagnostic challenges, and treatment approaches.RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple large cohorts confirm that obesity is one of the strongest independent predictors of exertional breathlessness. Recent wo

Breaking promises might be easier if one faces unexpectedly high costs for keeping them. Inspired by the ‘pledge and review’ mechanisms of the Paris Agreement, we investigate the role of cost uncertainty for both initial non-binding pledges and the subsequent voluntary provision of public goods. Without a pledge review process, we find that cost uncertainty not only leads to rather conservative pl

Collective action problems emerge when individual incentives and group interests are misaligned, as in the case of climate change. Individuals involved in these problems are generally considered to have two options: contribute toward public solutions such as global warming mitigation or free ride. However, many collective action problems today involve a third option of investing in a “private solu

This paper reports the measurement of Higgs boson production in association with a tt¯ pair in the H→bb¯ decay channel. The analysis uses 140 fb-1 of 13 TeV proton–proton collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The final states with one or two electrons or muons are employed. An excess of events over the expected background is found with an observed (expected

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Bone remodeling is a critical process for skeletal health, and its dysregulation can lead to diseases like osteoporosis. While several Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (CDKs) are known to regulate bone metabolism, the function of CDK10 remains uncharacterized in this context. Human mutations in CDK10 cause the Al Kaissi syndrome, which involves severe skeletal defects, suggesting a

Cities worldwide face immense challenges in transitioning to a sustainable future. While being structurally and politically bound to continuous growth, the striving for a constant increase in production and consumption puts enormous pressure on our planet and its ecosystems. Degrowth has been proposed as a pathway to solving this dilemma. Although scholarly attention to urban degrowth has expanded

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become more important for companies in recent years, both as a marketing tool and a way to demonstrate as well as to maintain the organization's social, economical and environmental sustainability. While many organizations talk about sustainability, it is unclear how well this information reaches their frontline employees working in the stores. This th

The ability to hold listeners’ attention and prevent habituation is a crucial design feature for both biological and human-made distress and alarm signals, but their intrusive nature also causes stress and annoyance. To investigate what makes vocalizations distracting and annoying, we developed Self-Steered Sound Synthesis—a new experimental paradigm for studying voice perception, in which untrain

A snowmobile towed impulse radar measurement was used to produce detailed maps of ice-thickness in two areas, one on a local dome (the Hans Tausen ice cap), and one on an outlet glacier north thereof. A constant spatial sampling was achieved by using a device attached to the snowmobile's odometer. The bedrock reflection was automatically detected in the majority of the data, by using digital signa

Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is a widely used technique for imaging subsurface resistivity distributions, but conventional data acquisition strategies face trade-offs between resolution, efficiency, and data quality. Comprehensive datasets that maximize subsurface information are impractical to measure directly, motivating the development of ERT data reconstruction approaches that can g
