Pandemonium free data for the JEFF-project

Abstract Reactor decay heat is due to the decay of both fission products and neutron activated fuel and reactor materials. At relatively short cooling times it is dominated by the beta decay of fission products. The calculation of the decay heat contribution of a particular fissi...

Assembling a haunted place: festival tourism and ghostly heritage in Taiwan

This study examines the Fenglin Ghost Festival in an aging rural Taiwanese community, analyzing how the festival transforms deep-seated cultural taboos and landscapes of fear into a successful tourist attraction. Addressing a gap in the placemaking literature regarding the more-t...

Pollen Morphology of Crataegus L. (Rosaceae) in Armenia: Taxonomic Implications

Pollen morphology is an important source of taxonomic evidence for species delimitation. The aim of this study was to identify diagnostically informative pollen morphological characters of Armenian Crataegus L. species (Rosaceae) and to evaluate their taxonomic significance at bo...

Urine andSerum Proteome and Lipidome Analysis ofNaturally Aging Feline Species

Abstract Aging in companion animals such as cats closely relates to human aging in environmental exposures and disease manifestation, providing a valuable model for identifying biomarkers of age-associated decline. This study provides a combined proteomic and lipidomic analysis o...

Differential Raman Spectroscopy Courier Face Sheet Detection Study Based on RCSC and 1DCNN‐Transformer

ABSTRACT To address the common issues of significant fluorescence interference, high data dimensionality, and low classification efficiency in detecting filler components in thermal paper courier face sheets, this study proposes an analytical method based on differential Raman sp...

Kinetic–ThermodynamicCoupling for EnhancedWater Isotopologue Separation Via Solar-Powered Diffusion–Evaporation

Abstract Separating water isotopologues is highly energy-intensive because the nearly identical physicochemical properties of H2O and D2O impose intrinsically small thermodynamic differences, limiting the efficiency of conventional thermal separation processes. Here, we report a...

Role of Steroids in the Diagnosis of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphomas: A Single-Center Experience

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The effect of preoperative steroids on primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) diagnosis is debated, because of concerns about lesion regression and false-negative biopsies. Steroids are commonly administered to manage the mass effect and neurol...

Critical-Span Retention and Query-Unknown Discovery for Long-Context KV Compression

Long-context inference is limited by KV-cache memory. This preprint investigates which token spans must be retained for retrieval-critical tasks and whether online compression fails because of insufficient cache capacity or weak query-unknown discovery. Controlled multi-seed expe...

Coupling Matters: Finite-Horizon Transport Analysis for Quantized Masked Diffusion Language Models

Preprint / technical report; not peer reviewed. This record presents Coupling Matters: Finite-Horizon Transport Analysis for Quantized Masked Diffusion Language Models, together with the public source and a compact research artifact. Post-training quantization of masked diffusion...

Line, hand, and bowstring- curvature, straightness, length, and tension in Old Chinese lexis as evidenced by 曲, 句—勾鉤, 掌, 直, 長, 張, and 展

ABSTRACT The present study is devoted to nine principal Old Chinese sinographs: 曲, 句, 勾, 鉤, 掌, 直, 長, 張, and 展 (with the derivative forms 痀, 拘, and 笱 adduced to elucidate the internal history of the 句 cluster). These sinographs pertain to the fundamental lexicon of fo...

Projection of Heating and Cooling Degree Days in Ankara Under Climate Change Using ERA5-Land and Bias-Corrected CMIP6 Models: A Multi-Threshold Approach

Climate change is shifting building thermal demand from heating toward cooling, yet quantitative, design-relevant projections for semi-arid continental cities remain scarce. This study projects heating and cooling degree days (HDDs and CDDs) for Ankara, Türkiye, using ERA5-Land a...

Demographic and Service-related Correlates of Moral Injury Symptoms in U.S. Military Populations

Introduction: Moral injury, the psychological distress from perceived transgressions of deeply held moral values, is distinct from moral distress and fear-based conditions such as PTSD. While combat exposure has received significant attention, less is known about how demographic...

CHAMPION PIPELINE v2 (faithful) — experiment #894: TG AUTO: BASE 44 ORDER: Apply cluster 226 mapping to pattern detector, rebuild, regress on Engine mapping: The strategy filters false-positive root-vector assignments via a geometric mapping, which is a form of range_fade that re...

Long-Term Mineral N Fertilization in Permanent Mountain Grassland: Trade-Offs Between Dry Matter Yield and Metabolizable Energy of Grasses, Legumes and Forbs

Permanent grassland management commonly includes moderate mineral N fertilization, which can differentially affect botanical composition, dry matter (DM) yield and forage quality of grasses, legumes and forbs. We hypothesized that increasing N would enhance grass dominance and DM...

Social capital and collaborative governance in rural areas of Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan has introduced direct elections and independent budgets at the rural level, increasing local autonomy in governance. Local community meetings provide an avenue for rural residents to engage directly with state officials. Such a conducive environment for collaboration b...

Top, Bottom, or Versatile? Sexual Role Trends Across Generations and Regions on a Gay Dating App

Understanding how men who have sex with men (MSM) identify with sexual role labels such as Top, Bottom, or Versatile offers descriptive insights into how sexuality, identity, and self-presentation intersect on dating platforms. Drawing on cross-sectional data from 141,156 active...

Time dilation is ontologically untenable

This position paper presents three theses that reach deep into the structure of modern physics and are difficult to refute because they follow directly from the units and categories: 1. Time dilation is ontologically untenable. 2. Gravity has a daughter — intrinsic gravity — and...
