I summarize here the latest top quark physics results from the ATLAS, CDF, CMS and D0 collaborations , first discussing the top quark production and then some of the latest top quark property measurements. These results are based on up to 5.4 fb −1 at the Tevatron and up to 1.10 fb −1 at the LHC.

A top-gated MoS2 transistor with 6 nm thick HfO2 is fabricated using an ozone pretreatment. The influence to the top-gated mobility brought about by the deposition of HfO2 is studied statistically, for the first time. The top-gated mobility is suppressed by the deposition of HfO2 , and multilayered samples are less susceptible than monolayer ones.

We argue that intelligible appeals to interlevel causes (top-down and bottom-up) can be understood, without remainder, as appeals to mechanistically mediated effects. Mechanistically mediated effects are hybrids of causal and constitutive relations, where the causal relations are exclusively intralevel. The idea of causation would have to stretch to the breaking point to accommodate interlevel ...

BACKGROUND Termination of pregnancy (TOP) services are a core service in New Zealand. However, compared to other developed countries, TOP services are accessed significantly later in the first trimester, increasing the risk for complications. The aim of this study is to examine the timeliness of access to first trimester TOP services and establish the length of delay between different points in...

This thesis designs a theoretical and general framework where proof-search can modularly interact with domain-specific procedure(s). This framework is a focussed sequent calculus for polarised classical logic, with quantifiers, and it is designed in the view of capturing various computer-aided reasoning techniques that exist in logic programing, goal-directed systems, proof-assistants, and auto...
