TL;DR: Endogenously produced isoprene provides protection from oxidative damage and shows remarkably decreased foliar damage and higher rates of photosynthesis compared to non-emitting plants immediately following oxidative stress events.
Abstract: Isoprene emission represents a significant loss of carbon to those plant species that synthesize this highly volatile and reactive compound. As a tool for studying the role of isoprene in plant physiology and biochemistry, we developed transgenic tobacco plants capable of emitting isoprene in a similar manner to and at rates comparable to a naturally emitting species. Thermotolerance of photosynthesis against transient high-temperature episodes could only be observed in lines emitting high levels of isoprene; the effect was very mild and could only be identified over repetitive stress events. However, isoprene-emitting plants were highly resistant to ozone-induced oxidative damage compared with their non-emitting azygous controls. In ozone-treated plants, accumulation of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) was inhibited, and antioxidant levels were higher. Isoprene-emitting plants showed remarkably decreased foliar damage and higher rates of photosynthesis compared to non-emitting plants immediately following oxidative stress events. An inhibition of hydrogen peroxide accumulation in isoprene-emitting plants may stall the programmed cell death response which would otherwise lead to foliar necrosis. These results demonstrate that endogenously produced isoprene provides protection from oxidative damage.

TL;DR: In this paper, experimental data on the activity of nucleating catalysts in various organic and inorganic glass-forming melts are summarized and discussed in terms of the theoretical approach developed in Part I of the present investigation.
Abstract: Methods for determining the nucleating activity of substrates are considered. Experimental data on the activity of nucleating catalysts in various organic and inorganic glass-forming melts are summarized and discussed in terms of the theoretical approach developed in Part I of the present investigation. The nucleation of the same melt induced by different substrates is analysed. In this respect, the data for sodium metaphosphate, lithium metaphosphate, poly(ethylene terephthalate), poly(vinyl chloride), sodium tetraborate nucleated with noble metal cores, for poly(decamethylene terephthalate), lithium disilicate, poly(ethylene) and water initiated by oxide and halide catalysts give a direct proof for the validity of the concepts, developed in Part I.

TL;DR: Antchev et al. as discussed by the authors measured the differential cross-section for proton-proton elastic scattering as a function of the four-momentum transfer squared t at the LHC energy of, under various beam and background conditions, luminosities, and Roman Pot positions.
Abstract: At the LHC energy of , under various beam and background conditions, luminosities, and Roman Pot positions, TOTEM has measured the differential cross-section for proton-proton elastic scattering as a function of the four-momentum transfer squared t. The results of the different analyses are in excellent agreement demonstrating no sizeable dependence on the beam conditions. Due to the very close approach of the Roman Pot detectors to the beam center (?5?beam) in a dedicated run with ?*?=?90?m, |t|-values down to 5?10?3?GeV2 were reached. The exponential slope of the differential elastic cross-section in this newly explored |t|-region remained unchanged and thus an exponential fit with only one constant B?=?(19.9???0.3)?GeV?2 over the large |t|-range from 0.005 to 0.2?GeV2 describes the differential distribution well. The high precision of the measurement and the large fit range lead to an error on the slope parameter B which is remarkably small compared to previous experiments. It allows a precise extrapolation over the non-visible cross-section (only 9%) to t?=?0. With the luminosity from CMS, the elastic cross-section was determined to be (25.4???1.1)?mb, and using in addition the optical theorem, the total pp cross-section was derived to be (98.6???2.2)?mb. For model comparisons the t-distributions are tabulated including the large |t|-range of the previous measurement (TOTEM Collaboration (Antchev G. et al), EPL, 95 (2011) 41001).
