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.

Qutrit magic state distillation
TL;DR: In this article, a qutrit Magic State Distillation (MSD) protocol based on the five-qutrit stabilizer code is proposed to recover non-stabilizer magic states from multiple copies of a mixed resource state using stabilizer operations.
Modeling the mechanics of tissue-engineered human heart valve leaflets
TL;DR: In this article, a structurally based model is applied to describe and analyze the mechanics of tissue-engineered human heart valve leaflets, and the results from two orthogonal uniaxial tensile tests are used to determine the model parameters of the constructs after two, three and four weeks of culturing.

Naïve dimensional analysis for three-body forces without pions
TL;DR: In this paper, the power-counting of three-body forces to all partial waves and orders, including external currents, was extended and systematised for systems of three identical particles in which short-range forces produce shallow two-particle bound states.
