TLDR
In this paper, a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) is presented.
Abstract
Deposits of clastic carbonate-dominated (calciclastic) sedimentary slope systems in the rock record have been identified mostly as linearly-consistent carbonate apron deposits, even though most ancient clastic carbonate slope deposits fit the submarine fan systems better. Calciclastic submarine fans are consequently rarely described and are poorly understood. Subsequently, very little is known especially in mud-dominated calciclastic submarine fan systems. Presented in this study are a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) that reveals a >250 m thick calciturbidite complex deposited in a calciclastic submarine fan setting. Seven facies are recognised from core and thin section characterisation and are grouped into three carbonate turbidite sequences. They include: 1) Calciturbidites, comprising mostly of highto low-density, wavy-laminated bioclast-rich facies; 2) low-density densite mudstones which are characterised by planar laminated and unlaminated muddominated facies; and 3) Calcidebrites which are muddy or hyper-concentrated debrisflow deposits occurring as poorly-sorted, chaotic, mud-supported floatstones.

Modeling studies of chromatin fiber structure as a function of DNA linker length.

TL;DR: It is suggested that medium NRLs are more advantageous for packing and various levels of chromatin compaction throughout the cell cycle than their shortest and longest brethren; the former fold into narrow fibers, while the latter (long NRLs) arrays do not easily lead to high packing ratios due to possible linker DNA bending.

Fluctuation diagnostics of the electron self-energy: Origin of the pseudogap physics

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how to identify which physical processes dominate the low-energy spectral functions of correlated electron systems through an analysis of the equation of motion for the electron self-energy in its charge, spin, and particle-particle representations.

Low loss, low dispersion and highly birefringent terahertz porous fibers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that porous fibers in addition to low loss and high confinement, have near zero dispersion for 0.5-1 THz resulting in reduced terahertz signal degradation compared to microwires.

Finite volume schemes for dispersive wave propagation and runup

TL;DR: This study extends the framework of the finite volume methods to dispersive water wave models, in particular to Boussinesq type systems, and focuses mainly on the application of the method to bidirectional nonlinear, dispersive wave propagation in one space dimension.

Classical simulation versus universality in measurement-based quantum computation

TL;DR: It is shown that the Schmidt-rank width, a measure recently introduced to assess universality of resource states, plays a crucial role in also this context and is related to the optimal description of states in terms of tree tensor networks.

A new generation of Ca2+ indicators with greatly improved fluorescence properties.

TL;DR: A new family of highly fluorescent indicators has been synthesized for biochemical studies of the physiological role of cytosolic free Ca2+ using an 8-coordinate tetracarboxylate chelating site with stilbene chromophores that offer up to 30-fold brighter fluorescence.

Nanocelluloses: A New Family of Nature-Based Materials

TL;DR: This Review assembles the current knowledge on the isolation of microfibrillated cellulose from wood and its application in nanocomposites; the preparation of nanocrystalline cellulose and its use as a reinforcing agent; and the biofabrication of bacterial nanocellulose, as well as its evaluation as a biomaterial for medical implants.

A review of the features and analyses of the solid electrolyte interphase in Li-ion batteries

TL;DR: The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is a protecting layer formed on the negative electrode of Li-ion batteries as a result of electrolyte decomposition, mainly during the first cycle as discussed by the authors.
