J Best - Nature Geoscience, 2019 - nature.com

The world's big rivers and their floodplains were central to development of civilization and are now home to c. 2.7 billion people. They are economically vital whilst also constituting some of the most diverse habitats on Earth. However, a...

Return to work after an initial myocardial infarction and subsequent emotional distress.

Archives of internal medicine

Rost K, Smith GR.
PMID: 1739370
Arch Intern Med. 1992 Feb;152(2):381-5.

We examined how return to work predicted subsequent change in emotional distress in 143 patients who had been employed at the time of initial myocardial infarction. Ninety patients (63%) returned to work by 4 months and remained employed at...

Practical recommendations for strengthening national and regional laboratory networks in Africa in the Global Health Security era.

African journal of laboratory medicine

Best M, Sakande J.
PMID: 28879137
Afr J Lab Med. 2016 Oct 31;5(3):471. doi: 10.4102/ajlm.v5i3.471. eCollection 2016.

The role of national health laboratories in support of public health response has expanded beyond laboratory testing to include a number of other core functions such as emergency response, training and outreach, communications, laboratory-based surveillance and data management. These...

Drug users' experiences of witnessing overdoses: what do they know and what do they need to know?.

Drug and alcohol review

Best D, Man LH, Gossop M, Noble A, Strang J.
PMID: 28474456
Drug Alcohol Rev. 2000 Dec;19(4):407-412. doi: 10.1080/713659420.

The study investigated overdose attitudes and experiences among 155 attenders at an out-patient drug clinic in south London. Almost half the sample (46.8%) had ever overdosed while 82.6% had witnessed overdoses, of whom 43 had witnessed overdose fatalities. However,...

First Direct Measurement of (12)C((12)C,n)(23)Mg at Stellar Energies.

Physical review letters

Bucher B, Tang XD, Fang X, Heger A, Almaraz-Calderon S, Alongi A, Ayangeakaa AD, Beard M, Best A, Browne J, Cahillane C, Couder M, deBoer RJ, Kontos A, Lamm L, Li YJ, Long A, Lu W, Lyons S, Notani M, Patel D, Paul N, Pignatari M, Roberts A, Robertson D, Smith K, Stech E, Talwar R, Tan WP, Wiescher M, Woosley SE.
PMID: 26197115
Phys Rev Lett. 2015 Jun 26;114(25):251102. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.251102. Epub 2015 Jun 25.

Neutrons produced by the carbon fusion reaction (12)C((12)C,n)(23)Mg play an important role in stellar nucleosynthesis. However, past studies have shown large discrepancies between experimental data and theory, leading to an uncertain cross section extrapolation at astrophysical energies. We present...

Swope Supernova Survey 2017a (SSS17a), the optical counterpart to a gravitational wave source.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Coulter DA, Foley RJ, Kilpatrick CD, Drout MR, Piro AL, Shappee BJ, Siebert MR, Simon JD, Ulloa N, Kasen D, Madore BF, Murguia-Berthier A, Pan YC, Prochaska JX, Ramirez-Ruiz E, Rest A, Rojas-Bravo C.

On 17 August 2017, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and the Virgo interferometer detected gravitational waves (GWs) emanating from a binary neutron star merger, GW170817. Nearly simultaneously, the Fermi and INTEGRAL (INTErnational Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory) telescopes detected a...

Electromagnetic evidence that SSS17a is the result of a binary neutron star merger.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Kilpatrick CD, Foley RJ, Kasen D, Murguia-Berthier A, Ramirez-Ruiz E, Coulter DA, Drout MR, Piro AL, Shappee BJ, Boutsia K, Contreras C, Di Mille F, Madore BF, Morrell N, Pan YC, Prochaska JX, Rest A, Rojas-Bravo C, Siebert MR, Simon JD, Ulloa N.

Eleven hours after the detection of gravitational wave source GW170817 by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory and Virgo Interferometers, an associated optical transient, SSS17a, was identified in the galaxy NGC 4993. Although the gravitational wave data indicate that GW170817...

MORPHOLOGY AND BEHAVIOR OF CRABS AND GASTROPODS FROM LAKE TANGANYIKA, AFRICA: IMPLICATIONS FOR LACUSTRINE PREDATOR-PREY COEVOLUTION.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution

West K, Cohen A, Baron M.
PMID: 28568834
Evolution. 1991 May;45(3):589-607. doi: 10.1111/j.1558-5646.1991.tb04331.x.

The shells of most lacustrine gastropods are typically small, weakly calcified, and modestly ornamented to unornamented. Similarly, most lacustrine crabs are usually small detritivores with weak chelae. A number of invertebrate taxa in Lake Tanganyika, however, deviate from these...

No signature of ejecta interaction with a stellar companion in three type Ia supernovae.

Nature

Olling RP, Mushotzky R, Shaya EJ, Rest A, Garnavich PM, Tucker BE, Kasen D, Margheim S, Filippenko AV.
PMID: 25993963
Nature. 2015 May 21;521(7552):332-5. doi: 10.1038/nature14455.

Type Ia supernovae are thought to be the result of a thermonuclear runaway in carbon/oxygen white dwarfs, but it is uncertain whether the explosion is triggered by accretion from a non-degenerate companion star or by a merger with another...
