Re-emission of slow positrons from tungsten at elevated temperatures by Al-Qaradawi, I. Y.

“…Irrespective of target history, no sharpening of the energy spectrum of re-emitted positrons was observed as the remoderator temperature was increased. Further, a steady decrease in the apparent re-emitted positron intensity was observed, attributed primarily to the increase in positronium formation, as the temperature of the foil was increased from 20 to 500 °C. …”

Tailoring the defects of sub-100 nm multipodal titanium nitride/oxynitride nanotubes for efficient water splitting performance by Eid, Kamel

“…These defects decreased the bandgap energy to 2.4 eV, increased visible-light response, and enhanced the incident photon-to-current collection efficiency (IPCE) and the photocurrent density of TiONxNTs by nearly 8 times compared with TiO2NTs, besides a quick carrier diffusion at the nanotube/electrolyte interface. …”

Repositioning for pressure injury prevention in adults. by Gillespie, Brigid M

“…The RR for PI with 2-hourly repositioning compared with 3-hourly repositioning on standard mattress is imprecise (RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.69 to 1.16; very low-certainty evidence). The CI for PI include both a large reduction and no difference for the comparison of 4-hourly and 6-hourly repositioning on viscoelastic foam (RR 0.73, 95% CI 0.53 to 1.02). …”
