UNLABELLED Developing regional air quality management strategies is a difficult task because formation of air pollutants is interdependent and air quality at different locations may have different responses to emissions from common sources. We developed an optimization-based model, OPtimal integrated Emission Reduction Alternatives (OPERA), which allows for identifications of least-cost control...

Dyspepsia is a common condition in the general population but data are lacking on the benefits of effective acid inhibition with proton pump inhibitors in functional dyspepsia. The results of the large, randomised, double blind clinical trials, BOND and OPERA, the Scandinavian PILOT study, and a follow up study, ENCORE, are reviewed. BOND, OPERA, and PILOT aimed to address the question of wheth...

The neutrino flavour oscillations hypothesis has been confirmed by several experiments, all are based on the observation of the disappearance of a given neutrino flavour. The long baseline neutrino experiment OPERA (Oscillation Project with Emulsion tRacking Apparatus) aims to give the first direct proof of the τ neutrino appearance in a pure muon neutrino beam (CERN Neutrinos to Gran Sasso bea...
