Hippocampal lesions facilitate instrumental learning with delayed reinforcement but induce impulsive choice in rats.
BACKGROUND: Animals must frequently act to influence the world even when the reinforcing outcomes of their actions are delayed. Learning with action-outcome delays is a complex problem, and little is known of the neural...
‘It’s Only Chance That You’re Safe and Sound’

This article examines Humphrey Jennings’ film A Diary for Timothy (1945) and makes the case for understanding the form and aesthetic power of the film through the multiple meanings of the human body. Bodies — of the infant...
State-of-the-art photonic crystal fiber
Super-continuum generation, four-wave mixing (FWM), and hollow-core Photonic crystal fibers (PCF) are technologies that have the potential to enable breakthroughs in medicine and microscopy. Scientists have endeavored to tailor...
The cubic perovskite structure of black formamidinium lead iodide, α-[HC(NH2)2]PbI3, at 298 K
The structure of black formamidinium lead halide, -[HC(NH2)2]PbI3, at 298 K has been refined from high resolution neutron powder diffraction data and found to adopt a cubic perovskite unit cell, a = 6.3620(8) Å. The trigonal...

Flexible delivery of Er:YAG radiation at 2.94 μm with novel hollow-core silica glass fibres
In this work we present the delivery of high energy Er:YAG laser pulses operating at 2.94 μm through a hollow-core negative curvature fibre (HC-NCF) and a hollow-core photonic crystal fibre (HC-PCF) and their use for the...
The Light of the Leaf
The plant has recently emerged as a battleground of conflicting ecocriticisms. ‘Dark Ecology’ is, in the works of Timothy Morton, an ecocritical hermeneutic, in which the world can be subtracted into the parts of...

Development of Phenomenological Models for Engine-Out Hydrocarbon Emissions from an SI di Engine within a 0D Two-Zone Combustion Chamber Description
The increasingly stringent limits on pollutant emissions from internal combustion engine-powered vehicles require the optimization of advanced combustion systems by means of virtual development and simulation tools. Among the...
Graphite-oxide hybrid multi-degree of freedom resonator metamaterial for broadband sound absorption
Low frequency broadband sound absorption for thin structures is still a great challenge. A new concept of a stackable hybrid resonator metamaterial is proposed which exhibits super broadband low-frequency sound absorption. The...
The effect of diurnal distribution of carbohydrates and fat on glycaemic control in humans
