TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the kinetic and mechanistic features of alkane oxidations to the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxides (main primary products), alcohols and ketones (secondary products) in the systems composed of tetracopper(II) triethanolaminate catalyst [O⊂Cu4{N(CH2CH2O)3}4(BOH)4][BF4]2 (1), aqueous hydrogen peroxide, acetonitrile solvent and an acid promoter (co-catalyst), have been

TL;DR: The wavelength dependence of the extinction of Type Ia SN 2014J in the nearby galaxy M82 has been measured using UV to near-IR photometry obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope, the Nordic Optical Telescope, and the Mount Abu Infrared Telescope as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The wavelength dependence of the extinction of Type Ia SN 2014J in the nearby galaxy M82 has been measured using UV to near-IR photometry obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope, the Nordic Optical Telescope, and the Mount Abu Infrared Telescope. This is the first time that the reddening of an SN Ia is characterized over the full wavelength range of 0.2-2 μm. A total-to-selective extinction, R_V ≥ 3.1, is ruled out with high significance. The best fit at maximum using a Galactic type extinction law yields R_V = 1.4 ± 0.1. The observed reddening of SN 2014J is also compatible with a power-law extinction, A _λ/AV = (λ/λ_V )^p as expected from multiple scattering of light, with p = –2.1 ± 0.1. After correcting for differences in reddening, SN 2014J appears to be very similar to SN 2011fe over the 14 broadband filter light curves used in our study.

TL;DR: In this article, a review concentrates on the search for a basic understanding of the underlying mechanisms, in terms of specific structural models, of liquid and solid foams, together with analogous cellular materials.
Abstract: Both liquid and solid foams, together with analogous cellular materials, have distinctive mechanical or rheological properties which find many applications. This review concentrates on the search for a basic understanding of the underlying mechanisms, in terms of specific structural models. Computer simulations play an increasing role and are beginning to be applied to three-dimensional models.

TL;DR: A modified cognitive reliability and error analysis method (CREAM) for estimating the human error probability in the maritime accident process on the basis of an evidential reasoning approach to facilitate subjective human reliability analysis in different engineering systems where uncertainty exists in practice.
Abstract: This article proposes a modified cognitive reliability and error analysis method (CREAM) for estimating the human error probability in the maritime accident process on the basis of an evidential reasoning approach. This modified CREAM is developed to precisely quantify the linguistic variables of the common performance conditions and to overcome the problem of ignoring the uncertainty caused by incomplete information in the existing CREAM models. Moreover, this article views maritime accident development from the sequential perspective, where a scenario- and barrier-based framework is proposed to describe the maritime accident process. This evidential reasoning-based CREAM approach together with the proposed accident development framework are applied to human reliability analysis of a ship capsizing accident. It will facilitate subjective human reliability analysis in different engineering systems where uncertainty exists in practice.© 2017 Society for Risk Analysis. Language: en
