TL;DR: For instance, this article found that feedback, job autonomy, skill variety, and opportunity for promotion contributed significantly to the explanation of variance in perceptions of organizational politics, after controlling for variance due to organization.

TL;DR: The cross-plane thermal conductivity of thin films of WSe2 grown from alternating W and Se layers is as small as 0.05 watts per meter per degree kelvin at room temperature, which is a factor of 6 smaller than the predicted minimum thermal Conductivity for this material.
Abstract: The cross-plane thermal conductivity of thin films of WSe2 grown from alternating W and Se layers is as small as 0.05 watts per meter per degree kelvin at room temperature, 30 times smaller than the c-axis thermal conductivity of single-crystal WSe2 and a factor of 6 smaller than the predicted minimum thermal conductivity for this material. We attribute the ultralow thermal conductivity of these disordered, layered crystals to the localization of lattice vibrations induced by the random stacking of two-dimensional crystalline WSe2 sheets. Disordering of the layered structure by ion bombardment increases the thermal conductivity.

TL;DR: The Curiosity rover discovered fine-grained sedimentary rocks, which are inferred to represent an ancient lake and preserve evidence of an environment that would have been suited to support a martian biosphere founded on chemolithoautotrophy.
Abstract: The Curiosity rover discovered fine-grained sedimentary rocks, which are inferred to represent an ancient lake and preserve evidence of an environment that would have been suited to support a martian biosphere founded on chemolithoautotrophy. This aqueous environment was characterized by neutral pH, low salinity, and variable redox states of both iron and sulfur species. Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, and phosphorus were measured directly as key biogenic elements; by inference, phosphorus is assumed to have been available. The environment probably had a minimum duration of hundreds to tens of thousands of years. These results highlight the biological viability of fluvial-lacustrine environments in the post-Noachian history of Mars.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that high-frequency capacitance measurements are most suited to follow the increasing surface coverage of the electrode due to cell spreading, and the excellent time resolution of the ECIS technique allowed an in-depth analysis of cell spreading kinetics under various experimental conditions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a Bayesian approach to optimize the calculation of the coefficients in the zircon solution model, which is given by: ln D Zr = 10108 ± 32 / T K − 1.16 ± 0.15 M − 1 − 1.48 ± 0.09 where DZr is the distribution coefficient of Zr between zirton and melt and the errors are at one sigma.
