The rise and fall of the Dutch referendum law (2015–2018): initiation, use, and abolition of the corrective, citizen-initiated, and non-binding referendum
In 2018, the Netherlands became the first democratic country to abolish its national referendum legislation. The Dutch referendum law of 2015–2018 allowed facultative, citizen-initiated, corrective, non-bindin...

Open AccessMutant JAK3 phosphoproteomic profiling predicts synergism between JAK3 inhibitors and MEK/BCL2 inhibitors for the treatment of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Mutations in the interleukin-7 receptor (IL7R) or the Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) kinase occur frequently in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and both are able to drive cellular transformation and the dev...

Trace element content in tea brewed in traditional metallic and stainless steel teapots
The migration of metals in tea brewed in metallic teapots was investigated. The teapots were obtained from North Africa stores in Brussels in 2005–2006 and in 2011. Chinese gunpowder green tea, the most common...

Thermalization of an Open Quantum System Via Full Diagonalization
Thermalization, the irreversible relaxation of a system to thermodynamic equilibrium, ultimately arises from the reversible dynamics of many-body quantum systems. Weakly coupling a small system to a large many...

Synchrotron X-ray Topography Studies of Epitaxial Lateral Overgrowth of GaN on Sapphire
Synchrotron white beam x-ray topography techniques, in section and large-area transmission modes, have been applied to the evaluation of ELOG GaN on A12O3. Using the openings in 100 nm thick SiO2 windows, a new G...

Characterisation of synnematous bark beetle-associated fungi from China, including Graphium carbonarium sp. nov.
Ophiostomatoid fungi on trees are typically bark beetle associates that cause sapstain in timber and some are pathogens. Very little is known regarding the ophiostomatoid fungi associated with bark beetles in ...

Pesotum australi sp. nov. and Ophiostoma quercus associated with Acacia mearnsii trees in Australia and Uganda, respectively
Pesotum accommodates synnematal anamorphs of Ophiostoma spp. with sympodially proliferating conidiogenous cells. These fungi are usually closely associated with wounds on trees and the insects th...

Viscoelastic dynamics of polymer thin films and surfaces
The strain relaxation behavior in a viscoelastic material, such as a polymer melt, may be strongly affected by the proximity of a free surface or mobile interface. In this paper, the viscoelastic surface modes...

Tilted-wing-induced stress distribution in epitaxial lateral overgrown GaN
Epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) is one of the most extensively studied techniques used to improve the mismatched heteroepitaxy of GaN on sapphire (α-Al2O3) substrates. In this method, a mask is first deposited...

The glass transition of thin polymer films: some questions, and a possible answer
A simple and predictive model is put forward explaining the experimentally observed substantial shift of the glass transition temperature, T g, of sufficiently thin polymer films. It focuses on the limit of small...
