Gamma-rays from the quasar pks 1441+25: story of an escape
(IOP Publishing, 2015-12-15)
Outbursts from gamma-ray quasars provide insights on the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei and constraints on the diffuse radiation fields that fill the universe. The detection of significant emission above 100 ...
Specifying the target difference in the primary outcome for a randomised controlled trial: guidance for researchers
(Springer Nature, 2015-01-15)
Background: Central to the design of a randomised controlled trial is the calculation of the number of participants needed. This is typically achieved by specifying a target difference and calculating the corresponding ...
Surface salinity in the north atlantic subtropical gyre during the strasse/spurs summer 2012 cruise
(The Oceanography Society, 2015-03-01)
We investigated a 100 x 100 km high-salinity region of the North Atlantic subtropical gyre during the Sub-Tropical Atlantic Surface Salinity Experiment/Salinity Processes in the Upper-ocean Regional Study (STRASSE/SPURS) ...

Unprecedented study of the broadband emission of mrk 421 during flaring activity in march 2010
(EDP Sciences, 2015-05-27)
Context. Because of its proximity, Mrk 421 is one of the best sources on which to study the nature of BL Lac objects. Its proximity allows us to characterize its broadband spectral energy distribution (SED).
Aims. The goal ...
The 2009 multiwavelength campaign on mrk 421: variability and correlation studies
(EDP Sciences, 2015-04-01)
Aims. We perform an extensive characterization of the broadband emission of Mrk 421, as well as its temporal evolution, during the non-flaring (low) state. The high brightness and nearby location (z = 0.031) of Mrk 421 ...
Healthy eating and reduced risk of cognitive decline: a cohort from 40 countries
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2015-05-06)
Objective:We sought to determine the association of dietary factors and risk of cognitive decline in a population at high risk of cardiovascular disease.Methods:Baseline dietary intake and measures of the Mini-Mental State ...
Height and breast cancer risk: evidence from prospective studies and mendelian randomization
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2015-08-20)
Background: Epidemiological studies have linked adult height with breast cancer risk in women. However, the magnitude of the association, particularly by subtypes of breast cancer, has not been established. Furthermore, ...
Firstnustarobservations of mrk 501 within a radio to tev multi-instrument campaign
(IOP Publishing, 2015-10-09)
We report on simultaneous broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar Markarian 501 between 2013 April 1 and August 10, including the first detailed characterization of the synchrotron peak with Swift and NuSTAR. ...
Fine-mapping identifies two additional breast cancer susceptibility loci at 9q31.2
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2015-02-04)
We recently identified a novel susceptibility variant, rs865686, for estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer at 9q31.2. Here, we report a fine-mapping analysis of the 9q31.2 susceptibility locus using 43 160 cases and 42 ...
