Nicolas B. Cowan,P. Machalek,P. Machalek,Bryce Croll,Bryce Croll,Louis M. Shekhtman,Adam Burrows,Drake Deming,Drake Deming,Thomas P. Greene,Joseph L. Hora +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the transit depths, eclipse depths, thermal and ellipsoidal phase variations at both wavelengths of WASP-12b at 3.6 and 4.5 μm.

TL;DR: This work examines the effectiveness of debunking on Facebook through a quantitative analysis of 54 million users over a time span of five years, and confirms the existence of echo chambers where users interact primarily with either conspiracy-like or scientific pages.

Debunking in a World of Tribes
Fabiana Zollo,Fabiana Zollo,Alessandro Bessi,Michela Del Vicario,Antonio Scala,Guido Caldarelli,Louis M. Shekhtman,Shlomo Havlin,Walter Quattrociocchi +8 more
TL;DR: This article examined the effectiveness of debunking through a quantitative analysis of 54 million users over a time span of five years and found that only a small fraction of usual consumers of unsubstantiated information interact with the posts and rather than internalizing debunking information, they often react to it negatively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances on failure and recovery in networks of networks
TL;DR: A review of the framework developed in recent years for studying the vulnerability and recovery of networks composed of inter dependent networks and the analytical solutions for the critical threshold and the giant component of a network of n interdependent networks are presented.

Resilience of networks with community structure behaves as if under an external field

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use percolation theory to develop a framework for studying the resilience of networks with a community structure, and they find both analytically and numerically that interlinks (the connections among communities) affect the Percolation phase transition in a way similar to an external field in a ferromagnetic-paramagnetic spin system.
