Journal ArticleDOI

A study of the precipitation of copper particles in a ferrite matrix

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of small amounts of Cu on the neutron irradiation induced embrittlement of reactor pressure vessel steels is investigated using a combination of atom probe analysis in Field Ion Microscope (FIM) and Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of the electric form-factor of the neutron at $Q^2$ = 0.5 and 1.0 $GeV^2/c^2$

TL;DR: In this paper, the electric form factor of the neutrons was determined from measurements of the (d) over right arrow((e) overright arrow,e(`)n)p reaction for quasielastic kinematics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Air pollution, social deprivation and mortality. A multilevel cohort study

TL;DR: Findings from this study suggest that socially deprived neighborhoods have higher exposure to air pollution, accounting for some of the excess mortality associated with air pollution in these neighborhoods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of Dense Genecentric Association Studies Reveals Common and Uncommon Variants Associated with Height

Matthew B. Lanktree, +202 more
TL;DR: It is shown that dense coverage of genes for uncommon SNPs, coupled with large-scale meta-analysis, can successfully identify additional variants associated with a common complex trait.
Journal ArticleDOI

An atom probe study of the distribution of rhenium in a nickel-based superalloy

TL;DR: In this article, an energy-compensated 3D atom probe investigation of superalloy RR3000 after high temperature testing was conducted. And the effect of the observed bow wave of Re on the rate of microstructural coarsening during precipitate growth was discussed.
