A fitted operator method for a model arising in vascular tumor dynamics
(Tianjin Polytechnic University, 2020)
In this paper, we consider a model for the population kinetics of human tumor cells in vitro, differentiated
by phases of the cell division cycle and length of time within each phase. Since it is not easy to isolate ...
Conceptualising COVID-19’s impacts on household food security
(Springer, 2020)
COVID-19 undermines food security both directly, by disrupting food systems, and indirectly, through the impacts of lockdowns
on household incomes and physical access to food. COVID-19 and responses to the pandemic could ...
Biosynthesis, Characterization, and Biological Activities of Procyanidin Capped Silver Nanoparticles
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-09-19)
In this study, procyanidin dimers and Leucosidea sericea total extract (LSTE) were employed in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Visible) spectroscopy, high-resolution ...
A population model for the 2017/18 listeriosis outbreak in South Africa
(PLoS One, 2020-03-12)
We introduce a compartmental model of ordinary differential equations for the population dynamics of listeriosis, and we derive a model for analysing a listeriosis outbreak. The model explicitly accommodates neonatal ...
Planck 2018 results: VI. Cosmological parameters
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We present cosmological parameter results from the final full-mission Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies, combining information from the temperature and polarization maps and the ...
Planck 2018 results: V. CMB power spectra and likelihoods
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We describe the legacy Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) likelihoods derived from the 2018 data release. The overall approach is similar in spirit to the one retained for the 2013 and 2015 data release, with a hybrid ...
Synthesis and cytotoxic evaluation of gum arabic surface modified cadmium telluride quantum dots
(American Scientific Publishers, 2020)
Water-soluble cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots (QDs) were capped with gum Arabic (GA) is a non-toxic,
water-soluble glycoprotein polymer commonly used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The GA was
used to ...
Planck 2018 results: I. Overview and the cosmological legacy of Planck
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
The European Space Agency’s Planck satellite, which was dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched on 14 May 2009. It scanned the microwave and submillimetre sky continuously between ...
Planck 2018 results: X. Constraints on inflation
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We report on the implications for cosmic inflation of the 2018 release of the Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements. The results are fully consistent with those reported using the data from the ...
Planck 2018 results: IV. Diffuse component separation
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
We present full-sky maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and polarized synchrotron and thermal dust emission, derived from the third set of Planck frequency maps. These products have significantly lower contamination ...
