In a high-energy physics data analysis, the term "fake" backgrounds refers to events that would formally not satisfy the (signal) process selection criteria, but are accepted nonetheless due to mis-reconstructed particles. This can occur, e.g., when leptons from secondary decays are incorrectly identified as originating from the hard-scatter interaction point (known as non-prompt leptons), or when
PurposeBlockchain technology (BCT) is a novel and disruptive innovation that can transform procurement processes in various industries, including the food sector. BCT can offer benefits such as transparency, traceability, security, and efficiency for procuring food products, which are essential for ensuring food security and quality. However, BCT faces several challenges that hinder its adoption a
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most prevalent and aggressive subtype of ovarian cancer. The combination of late-stage diagnosis and the tendency to exhibit resistance to existing treatments highlights a critical gap in effective therapeutic options. There is thus a need for novel strategies for targeting HGSOC, particularly in its advanced stages. To address this gap, we developed
Chuño (black) and tunta (white) are two ancient potato derivatives traditionally produced in the high-altitude Andean region through a natural freezing, pressing, washing, and sun-drying process that preserves the tubers for long-term storage. The present study investigates the resistant starch (RS) content, antioxidant capacity, and bioactive metabolites produced by fermentation with probiotic ba
This article critically examines Viking Age mortuary reconstructions, a genre of archaeological imagery increasingly influential in scholarly and popular contexts. Focusing on Scandinavian examples produced since 2000, the study interrogates the emotive, affective, and ethical dimensions of these visualisations. Employing a visual social semiotic framework, it analyses vantage points, colour sche
As decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc. As the USSR underwent a transformation from the radical anti-imperialism of the 1920s to certain imperial attributes following the announcement of the BrAs decolonization transformed world geopolitics, various Eastern Europeanauthoritarian ultranationalist groups sought to instrumentalize anti-imperialism in their attempts to launch a violent overthrow of the socialist regimes of the Soviet bloc.
