TL;DR: In this paper, an advanced state of health (SoH) estimation method for high energy NMC lithium-ion batteries based on the incremental capacity (IC) analysis is proposed.

TL;DR: DeepCore as discussed by the authors was designed to lower the IceCube neutrino energy threshold by over an order of magnitude, to energies as low as about 10 GeV. DeepCore is situated primarily 2100 m below the surface of the icecap at the South Pole, at the bottom center of the existing IceCube array, and began taking physics data in May 2010.

TL;DR: In this paper, a search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying to bb¯ when produced in association with a weak vector boson (V) is reported for the following channels: W(μν)H, W(eν), W(τν), H, Z(μμ), Z(ee, H, and Z(νν), where the search is performed in data samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of up to 5.1 inverse femtobarns at s√=7
Abstract: A search for the standard model Higgs boson (H) decaying to bb¯ when produced in association with a weak vector boson (V) is reported for the following channels: W(μν)H, W(eν)H, W(τν)H, Z(μμ)H, Z(ee)H, and Z(νν)H. The search is performed in data samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of up to 5.1 inverse femtobarns at s√=7 TeV and up to 18.9 fb−1 at s√=8 TeV, recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC. An excess of events is observed above the expected background with a local significance of 2.1 standard deviations for a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV, consistent with the expectation from the production of the standard model Higgs boson. The signal strength corresponding to this excess, relative to that of the standard model Higgs boson, is 1.0±0.5.

TL;DR: Recommendations for management of children presenting with a history of suspected accidental ingestion of a foreign body for the community paediatrician are proposed.
Abstract: The management of ingested foreign bodies in children is not standardised. During a 15-year period, we recorded 325 consecutive paediatric cases of accidental ingestion of foreign bodies or with symptoms suggesting oesophageal obstruction presented at the emergency department or the paediatric gastroenterology unit. The foreign bodies that had to be removed were, in decreasing order of frequency: coins, toy parts, jewels, batteries, sharp materials such as needles and pins, fish and chicken bones, and “large” amounts of food. Only 54% of the patients had transient symptoms at the moment of ingestion, such as retrosternal pain, cyanosis and dysphagia. A minority (28, 9%) of foreign bodies could be removed with a McGill forceps; 65 (20%) were removed with a magnet probe. Endoscopic removal was performed in 82 cases (25%). In the majority of cases (150, 46%) natural elimination occurred. The outcome of all patients was uneventful.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present empirical evidence on tax mimicking among Belgian municipalities and show that U.S. states' and local governments' tax policy is copied among neighboring jurisdictions.
Abstract: Recent empirical studies show that U.S. states' and local governments' tax policy is copied among neighboring jurisdictions. We present empirical evidence on such tax mimicking among Belgian munici...
