For the foreseeable future, the exploration of the high-energy frontier will be the domain of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).Of particular significance will be its high-luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC), which will operate until the mid-2030s.In this endeavour, for the full exploitation of the HL-LHC physics potential an improved understanding of the pa
Abstract Background Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) may be used for direct inspection of various parts of the main coronary arteries for detection of coronary stenoses and occlusions.We aimed to assess the feasibility of TTE to visualise the complete segments of the left main (LM), left descending (LAD), circumflex (Cx) and right (RCA) coronar
Despite the paramount role of floral fragrance in pollinator attraction and reproduction in flowering plants, we know little about its evolution under natural conditions.Here we show that by reducing herbivore load with pesticide application, plants showed evolutionary changes in their floral fragrance within 4 generations when Stemless Wine Glass
Cuff-based home blood pressure (BP) devices, which have been the standard for BP monitoring for decades, are limited by physical discomfort, Swim Bottom convenience, and their ability to capture BP variability and patterns between intermittent readings.In recent years, cuffless BP devices, which do not require cuff inflation around a limb, have ent
Abstract This paper explores the effectiveness in the use of texture painting software packages, which are more commonly used in the film and game industries, as a method for detecting and recording carvings on non-planar surfaces.This new approach is demonstrated through a case study of the Piraeus Lion, a sculpture in Venice which has documented
