Scholars report that the students’ interest in STEM declines and suggest to approach them earlier. This case study with convenient sample of seven primary school students investigates view science scientists examine following research questions Dutch lower secondary context: (1) What are young students' images perceptions their work? (2) How do conceptualize scientist? (3) attitudes toward scie...

A população mundial passa por uma Pandemia provocada pelo coronavírus, denominado também de COVID-19 ou SARS-Cov-2. Essa doença apresenta um quadro clínico que varia infecções assintomáticas a quadros graves, podendo ser confundida com resfriado. No Brasil, o primeiro caso da foi notificado em 25 fevereiro 2020 e número acometidos vírus tem crescido, desde então, gradativamente. Trata-se estudo...

The block layered space-time codes, with the intent of simultaneously achieving high coding gain and high code rate, have been suggested. These codes are based on the design principles of existing layered space-time codes and space-time block codes. The previously known concept of a layer has been modified to a block layer wherein a block layer has more than one antenna transmitting at the same...

Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is urgently needed for informing treatment decisions and preventing the spread of antimicrobial resistance resulting from the misuse and overuse of antibiotics. To date, no phenotypic AST exists that can be performed within a single patient visit (30 min) directly from clinical samples. We show that AST results can be obtained by using digital nu...

Substance use in the home is an issue that has impacted society a variety of ways. There are parents who abuse various types substances like opioids, alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, and tobacco. These drugs have very devastating effects on family members. Children raised homes where one or both often introduced to eventually become dependent them later life. Many these children neglected poorly tr...

A new class of highly efficient nonlinear optical organic salt crystals is reported. In optics based on materials, it well known that using two electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) onto cationic electron acceptors instead conventional one EWG remarkably enhances microscopic nonlinearity for chromophores. However, the corresponding possessing enhanced large macroscopic have not been reported yet. ...

The causes underlying traffic offender behaviour might be the tip of iceberg that represents a persistent burden on global health and serves to detect other serious social, family, work problems. Better understanding prevention recidivism following First-time driving under influence conviction analysis High Risk driver behaviors are needed. This study seeks identify factors predict an profile, ...

In this paper, we will review both past and recent progresses in the generation, detection and application of intense terahertz (THz) radiation. We will restrict the review to laser based intense few-cycle THz sources, and thus will not include sources such as synchrotron-based or narrowband sources. We will first review the various methods used for generating intense THz radiation, including p...
