New reactions of diazene and related species for modelling combustion of amine fuels (open access)

New reactions of diazene and related species for modelling combustion of amine fuels

Article discusses how potential energy surfaces for reactions involving N2H2 isomers of diazene (diimide) have been explored using density functional theory, with energies based on coupled-cluster theory. A focus is on processes that create or consume these species, and isomerization between the E (trans) and Z (cis) forms of HNNH. This is the accepted manuscript version of the published article.

Descriptive Complexity in Cantor Series (open access)

Descriptive Complexity in Cantor Series

Article discusses how a Cantor series expansion for a real number x with respect to a basic sequence Q=(q), where qi≥2, is a generalization of the base b expansion to an infinite sequence of bases. The authors show that for any basic sequence the set of distribution normal numbers is Π03-complete, and if Q is 1-divergent then the sets of normal and ratio normal numbers are Π03-complete.

Trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish by PAR2 activation in keratinocytes (open access)

Trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish by PAR2 activation in keratinocytes

Article using zebrafish as a model and identifies that trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish larvae and adult zebrafish. Results show that the trypsin activates PAR2 on keratinocytes signaling the brain, and this pathway of trypsin-induced escape response will provide a unique communication mechanism in zebrafish.

Instructional Models for Course-Based Research Experience (CRE) Teaching (open access)

Instructional Models for Course-Based Research Experience (CRE) Teaching

This article presents a study that was done over a period of 3 years to explicate the instructional processes involved in teaching an undergraduate course-based research experience (CRE). The study presented here delineated a set of specific instructional practices used by active CRE instructors and modeled the relations between the use of these practices and specified outcomes. The resultant educational models should provide clarification of the ways in which the aims of CRE can be effectively achieved by instructors.

The metabolic cost of turning right side up in the Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoise (Testudo graeca) (open access)

The metabolic cost of turning right side up in the Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoise (Testudo graeca)

Article examining the the metabolic cost of self-righting in the terrestrial Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoise using respirometry and kinematic video analysis and comparing this to the metabolic cost of locomotion at a moderate, easily sustainable speed. The results found that self-righting is, relatively, metabolically expensive and costs around two times the mass-specific power required to walk.
