ObjectiveTo investigate the relation between deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the posterior-subthalamic-area (PSA) and the ventral-intermediate-nucleus (VIM) and the distance to the dentatorubrothalamic tract (DRTT) in essential tremor (ET).MethodsTremor rating scale (TRS) hemi-scores were analyzed in 13 ET patients, stimulated in both the VIM and the PSA in a randomized, crossover trial. Distances of PSA and VIM contacts to population-based DRTTs were calculated. [...]

Global tropospheric ozone reanalyses constructed using different state-of-the-art satellite data assimilation systems, prepared as part of the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS-iRean and CAMS-Rean) as well as two fully independent reanalyses (TCR-1 and TCR-2, Tropospheric Chemistry Reanalysis), have been intercompared and evaluated for the past decade. The updated reanalyses (CAMS-Rean and TCR-2) generally show substantially improved agreements with independent ground and ozone-sonde observations over their predecessor versions (CAMS-iRean and TCR-1) for diurnal, synoptical, seasonal, and interannual variabilities.

Thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel particles have been largely studied in the past due to their interesting fundamental properties as well as their potential for application in drug delivery, sensor technology or biotechnology. In this contribution, microgel particles with homogeneous and heterogeneous crosslink distribution and different crosslinker concentrations will be studied with small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and neutron spin echo spectroscopy (NSE).The segmental dynamics of polymer chains in solution, as described by the Zimm model, is modified in microgels due to the presence of crosslinks and the crowded environment inside the particle, both inducing heterogeneities, for example “frozen” inhomogeneities or density fluctuations.

Differential cross section for the 1H(d,pp)n breakup reaction at deuteron beam energy of 340 MeV has been measured with the use of WASA detector at COSY-Juelich. The set of proton-proton coincidences registered at Forward Detector has been analysed on dense grid of kinematic variables, giving in total around 5600 data points. [...]
