TL;DR: In this article, the results of a search for pair production of a heavy, top-like quark, t', in the decay mode (t' anti-t') to (b anti-W anti-b W) to b anti-lepton neutrino anti -b lepton anti-neutrino) are presented.

TL;DR: It is suggested that a combination of freezing tolerance and avoidance by insulation is least expensive and is a more secure mechanism for high tropical mountain plants than supercooling alone.
Abstract: Freezing tolerance and avoidance were studied in several different sized species of the tropical high Andes (4200 m) to determine whether there was a relationship between plant height and cold resistance mechanisms. Freezing injury and supercooling capacity were determined in ground level plants (i.e. cushions, small rosettes and a perennial herb), intermediate height plants (shrubs and perennial herbs) and arborescent forms (i.e. giant rosettes and small trees). All ground-level plants showed tolerance as the main mechanism of resistance to cold temperatures. Arborescent forms showed avoidance mechanisms mainly through supercooling, while intermediate plants exhibited both. Insulation mechanisms to avoid low temperatures were present in the two extreme life-forms. We suggest that a combination of freezing tolerance and avoidance by insulation is least expensive and is a more secure mechanism for high tropical mountain plants than supercooling alone.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used activated carbon from coconut shells (ACCS) for the removal of metal ions (manganese, iron, nickel and copper) from aqueous solutions.
Abstract: Activated carbon from coconut shells (ACCS) was synthesised and used for the removal of metal ions (manganese, iron, nickel and copper) from aqueous solutions. Two different adsorption models were used for analysing the data. Adsorption capacities were determined: copper ions exhibited the greatest adsorption on activated carbon obtained from coconut shells because of their size and pH conditions. Adsorption capacity varied as a function of the pH. Adsorption isotherms from aqueous solutions of heavy metals on ACCS were determined and were found to be consistent with Langmuir’s adsorption model. Adsorbent quantity and immersion enthalpy were studied. The results were compared with other adsorbents used in a prior study.
