Considerations for optimizing the photometric classification of supernovae from the Rubin observatory
(IOP Publishing, 2022)
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will increase the number of observed supernovae (SNe) by an order of
magnitude; however, it is impossible to spectroscopically confirm the class for all SNe discovered. Thus,
photometric ...
Role of cytocentrifugation combined with nuclear fast picroindigocarmine staining in detecting cryptozoospermia in men diagnosed with azoospermia
(Seoul: Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2022)
Azoospermia is defined as the absence of spermatozoa in the pellet of a centrifuged semen sample. In fact, when a
basic semen analysis fails to detect sperm in the ejaculate, there is still the possibility of detecting ...
A review of the fractal market hypothesis for trading and market price prediction
(MPDI, 2022)
This paper provides a review of the Fractal Market Hypothesis (FMH) focusing on financial
times series analysis. In order to put the FMH into a broader perspective, the Random Walk and Efficient Market Hypotheses are ...

Cosmos2020: A panchromatic view of the universe to z∼10 from two complementary catalogs
(IOP Publishing, 2022)
The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) has become a cornerstone of extragalactic astronomy. Since the last public
catalog in 2015, a wealth of new imaging and spectroscopic data have been collected in the COSMOS field. This ...
Validation of the hera phase i epoch of reionization 21 cm power spectrum software pipeline
(IOP Publishing, 2022)
We describe the validation of the HERA Phase I software pipeline by a series of modular tests, building up to an
end-to-end simulation. The philosophy of this approach is to validate the software and algorithms used in ...

Comparison of phenolic content and antioxidant activity for fermented and unfermented rooibos samples extracted with water and methanol
(MPDI, 2022)
Rooibos is brewed from the medicinal plant Aspalathus linearis. It has a well-established
wide spectrum of bio-activity properties, which in part may be attributed to the phenolic antioxidant
power. The antioxidant ...
Too hot to nest? In a hot summer the Tortoise Chersina Angulata can switch from nesting to facultative viviparity
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
In a captive colony of Chersina angulata in Cape Town, South Africa, we observed
in 2015/16 retention of the last egg clutch inside the female until the hatching stage
was reached, conforming to the generally accepted ...
