description: p-3H and n-3He scattering in the energy range above the n-3He but below the d-d thresholds is studied by solving the 4-nucleon problem with a realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction. Three different methods -- Alt, Grassberger and Sandhas, Hyperspherical Harmonics, and Faddeev-Yakubovsky -- have been employed and their results for both elastic and charge-exchange processes are compared. We observe a good agreement between the three different methods, thus the obtained results may serve as a benchmark. A comparison with the available experimental data is also reported and discussed.

description: Understanding how accretion proceeds in proto-planetary discs and more generally their dynamics is a crucial issue for explaining the conditions in which planets form. The role that accretion of gas from the surrounding molecular cloud onto the disc may have on its structure needs to be quantified. We perform tri-dimensional simulations using the Cartesian AMR code RAMSES of an accretion disc subject to infalling material. For the aspect ratio of $H/R \simeq 0.15$ and disk mass $M_d \simeq 10^{-2}$ M$_\odot$ used in our study, we find that for typical accretion rates on the order of a few 10$^{-7}$ M$_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$, values of the $α$ parameter as high as a few 10$^{-3}$ are inferred. The mass that is accreted in the inner part of the disc is typically at least $50\%$ of the total mass that has been accreted onto the disc. Our results suggest that external accretion of gas at moderate values, onto circumstellar discs may trigger prominent spiral arms, reminiscent of recent observations made with various instruments, and lead to significant transport through the disc. If confirmed from observational studies, such accretion may therefore influence disc evolution.

description: Educational Data Mining (EDM) is an emerging field that aims to better understand students' behavior patterns and learning environments by employing statistical and machine learning methods to analyze large repositories of educational data. Analysis of variable data in the early stages of a course might be used to develop a comprehensive prediction model to prevent students' failure or dropout. This will assist instructors in intervening effectively. This dissertation utilizes machine learning models to predict students' learning outcomes based on their interactions with online learning environments. It also focuses on students' learning style detection to enhance their academic performance and personalize learning resources in online learning environments.

Ultraviolet emission from main-sequence companions of AGB stars
Creators: name: Ortiz, Roberto

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Although the majority of known binary Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars are symbiotic systems (i.e. with a WD as a secondary star), main-sequence companions of AGB stars can be more numerous, even though they are more difficult to find because the primary high luminosity hampers the detection of the companion at visual wavelengths. However, in the ultraviolet the flux emitted by a secondary with T eff > 5500 ~ 6000 K may prevail over that of the primary, and then it can be used to search for candidates to binary AGB stars. In this work, theoretical atmosphere models are used to calculate the UV excess in the GALEX near- and far-UV bands due to a main-sequence companion. After analysing a sample of confirmed binary AGB stars, we propose as a criterium for binarity: (1) the detection of the AGB star in the GALEX far-UV band and/or (2) a GALEX near-UV observed-to-predicted flux ratio > 20. These criteria have been applied to a volume-limited sample of AGB stars within 500 pc of the Sun; 34 out of the sample of 58 AGB stars ( ~ 60%) fulfill them, implying to have a MS companion of spectral type earlier than K0. The excess in the GALEX near- and far-UV bands cannot be attributed to a single temperature companion star, thus suggesting that the UV emission of the secondary might be absorbed by the extended atmosphere and circumstellar envelope of the primary or that UV emission is produced in accretion flows.

description: Upper Triassic calcareous algae, abundant and well-diversified in Tethyan deposits, have rarely been described in rocks of Panthalassan origin. Over the past ten years, several studies were performed on Upper Triassic carbonate deposits of Panthalassan affinity in North America, Japan and Far East Russia, revealing unexpectedly rich and diversified assemblages. The samples were collected from nine localities situated on both sides of the Pacific Ocean. The identified algal assemblage consists of green and red algae, including fourteen dasycladaleans, rare bryopsidaleans, and several rhodophyceans. This paper describes the main algal taxa, including six new species: Holosporella? rossanae Bucur & Del Piero n. sp., Holosporella magna Bucur & Fucelli n. sp., Griphoporella minuta Bucur & Peybernes n. sp., Patruliuspora pacifica Bucur, Del Piero & Peyrotty n. sp., Patruliuspora oregonica Bucur & Rigaud n. sp. and Collarecodium? nezpercae Bucur & Rigaud n. sp. Rivulariacean-like cyanobacteria and thaumatoporellacean algae are also present. The whole Panthalassan algal assemblage comprises both unknown (?endemic) and common taxa of the Tethyan domain. To explain the cosmopolitan distribution of various Upper Triassic benthic organisms scleractinian corals, calcified sponges, foraminifera), a close connection with the Tethys Ocean was hypothesized by different authors. During the Late Triassic, the Tethys was open to the east on the Western Panthalassa but not to the west, suggesting that Triassic calcareous algae were able to efficiently colonize environments that are estimated to be more than 10’000 km apart. An adventitious transport of calcareous algae and/or their spores is proposed to explain this long-range algal dispersal.

Pyrolysis of Drugs of Abuse Individually and Adulterated: Implications on Medicine and Forensics
Creators: name: Stang, Brianna
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2023

description: Since the 1980s, many drug users began to smoke their drug of choice instead of injecting due to risk of infection and contraction of diseases like HIV. However, there are unique health risks and dangers posed to drug users who smoke rather than inject. Thermal degradation products, or pyromarkers, are formed during pyrolysis reactions that occur when smoking. Their identity and quantity can be affected by factors including temperature and presence of cutting agents. With the rise of fentanyl adulteration in street drugs, this increases health risks for users who smoke. Studies show that mixtures of heroin and fentanyl produce new pyromarkers at varying pyrolysis temperatures and mixture ratios. The identity and quantity of pyromarkers produced by these drug substances is highly necessary and can be broadly applied to forensics and medicine. Investigation of pyromarkers would allow forensic chemists and toxicologists to add more compounds to drug screens as well as their metabolites that can be identified in biological samples. Analysis of pyromarkers is particularly advantageous for forensic chemists analyzing drug smoke residues and/or smoking paraphernalia since there is likely a low amount of the parent drug left behind. This research is also beneficial to medical personnel as it can improve their diagnostic testing workflow and treatment of patients due to potentially unique forms of injury/disease. For instance, heroin induced leukoencephalopathy (HIL) is a unique form of leukoencephalopathy associated with a rapid onset of symptoms specifically caused by smoking heroin. Novel respiratory or neurological diseases like HIL could also develop for cocaine, cannabis, and/or fentanyl. Further investigation into the pyrolysis of cannabis is highly necessary with increasing legalization across the United States. For the reasons above, smoking is a potentially more dangerous route of administration than injection for recreational drug users.

description: The 6.67 hr periodicity and the variable X-ray flux of the central compact object (CCO) at the center of the SNR RCW 103, named 1E 161348-5055, have been always difficult to interpret within the standard scenarios of an isolated neutron star or a binary system. On 2016 June 22, the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) onboard Swift detected a magnetar-like short X-ray burst from the direction of 1E 161348-5055, also coincident with a large long-term X-ray outburst. Here we report on Chandra, NuSTAR, and Swift (BAT and XRT) observations of this peculiar source during its 2016 outburst peak. In particular, we study the properties of this magnetar-like burst, we discover a hard X-ray tail in the CCO spectrum during outburst, and we study its long-term outburst history (from 1999 to July 2016). We find the emission properties of 1E 161348-5055 consistent with it being a magnetar. However in this scenario, the 6.67 hr periodicity can only be interpreted as the rotation period of this strongly magnetized neutron star, which therefore represents the slowest pulsar ever detected, by orders of magnitude. We briefly discuss the viable slow-down scenarios, favoring a picture involving a period of fall-back accretion after the supernova explosion, similarly to what is invoked (although in a different regime) to explain the "anti-magnetar" scenario for other CCOs.

Year: 2024

description: Abstract

The genotype-environment correlation and interaction are vital for optimizing animal performance and welfare. Genotype-environment correlation refers to the way an animal’s genetic makeup influences its exposure to specific environments, which can affect its development and performance. This correlation can be passive, where genetics affect environmental exposure; evocative, where genetic traits elicit particular environmental responses; or active, where animals seek out environments that match their genetic predispositions. Genotype-environment interaction involves the differential effect of genetic variants on traits depending on environmental conditions, or the influence of environmental factors on the expression of genetic traits. These interactions highlight the complex interplay between genetics and environment, informing breeding and management strategies aimed at optimizing animal health, productivity, and adaptability.

description: We present a self-contained operator-based approach to derive the spectrum of trapped ions. This approach provides the complete normal form of the low energy quadratic Hamiltonian in terms of bosonic phonons, as well as an effective free particle degree of freedom for each spontaneously broken spatial symmetry. We demonstrate how this formalism can directly be used to characterize an ion chain both in the linear and the zigzag regimes. In particular we compute, both for the ground state and finite temperature states, spatial correlations, heat capacity and dynamical susceptibility. Last, for the ground state which has quantum correlations, we analyze the amount of energy reduction compared to an uncorrelated state with minimum energy, thus highlighting how the system can lower its energy by correlations.

description: We present the polarization observations toward the circumstellar disk around HD 142527 by using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) at the frequency of 343 GHz. The beam size is $0.51 " \times 0.44 "$, which corresponds to the spatial resolution of $\sim$ 71 $\times$ 62 AU. The polarized intensity displays a ring-like structure with a peak located on the east side with a polarization fraction of $P= 3.26 \pm 0.02$ %, which is different from the peak of the continuum emission from the northeast region. The polarized intensity is significantly weaker at the peak of the continuum where $P= 0.220 \pm 0.010$ %. The polarization vectors are in the radial direction in the main ring of the polarized intensity, while there are two regions outside at the northwest and northeast areas where the vectors are in the azimuthal direction. If the polarization vectors represent the magnetic field morphology, the polarization vectors indicate the toroidal magnetic field configuration on the main ring and the poloidal fields outside. On the other hand, the flip of the polarization vectors is predicted by the self-scattering of thermal dust emission due to the change of the direction of thermal radiation flux. Therefore, we conclude that self-scattering of thermal dust emission plays a major role in producing polarization at millimeter wavelengths in this protoplanetary disk. Also, this puts a constraint on the maximum grain size to be approximately 150 ${\rm μm}$ if we assume compact spherical dust grains.

Intellectual Property and 'Terms of Trade': The Challenges for Entertainment Businesses in the Emerging Platform Economy
Creators: name: Alae-Carew, Naysun
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: For the last two decades, the industrial organization of the UK screen sector has been shaped by the so-called ‘Terms of Trade’. 'Terms of Trade' are codes of practice adopted by public service broadcasters, regulated by Ofcom under the 2003 Communications Act. Under these terms, independent producers retain ownership of the intellectual property rights in their programmes. Commissioners typically receive a licence for a package of primary rights in their home market for a specific period. Revenues from international sales are split. The paper explores investment decisions and business models that evolved in response to this intervention, and how they are changing with the entry of Video on Demand (VoD) platforms (such as Netflix) into the commissioning market. VoD services are outside the current scope of Ofcom’s supervision, and therefore free to pursue exploitation models outside the 'Terms of Trade'. Drawing on Blazing Griffin’s experience as an innovative digital entertainment company, the paper explains difficult trade-offs between retaining rights and up-front payments, as well as the effects of information asymmetries in three industries: video games, TV, and film. Television is characterized as a highly regulated oligopoly, and subject to considerable consolidation within the independent production sector (now often foreign owned). Film, while less regulated, is described as a ‘bisected market’ dominated by a handful of large studios and many smaller producers. By comparison, business model innovation in the online games market continues to rapidly and fundamentally alter relationships between producers, publishers and platforms. Finally, the paper reflects on the changing role of digital users, and a new understanding of copyright under which unauthorised ‘mash-ups’ may be seen as an opportunity.

description: Gorgonopsians are among the most recognizable groups of synapsids from the Permian period and have an extensive but mostly cranial fossil record. By contrast, relatively little is known about their postcranial anatomy. Here, we describe a nearly complete, semi-articulated skeleton of a gorgonopsian (identified as Gorgonops torvus) from the late Permian Endothiodon Assemblage Zone of the South African Karoo Basin and discuss its paleobiological implications. Known gorgonopsian postcrania indicate morphological conservatism in the group, but the skeletal anatomy of Gorgonops does differ from that of other gorgonopsians in some respects, such as in the triangular radiale and short terminal phalanges in the manus, and a weakly developed distinction between pubis and ischium in ventral aspect of the pelvic girdle. Similarities between the specimen described herein and a historically problematic specimen originally referred to “Scymnognathus cf. whaitsi” confirm referral of the latter specimen to Gorgonops. Since descriptions of gorgonopsian postcrania are rare, new interpretations of the lifestyle and ecology of Gorgonopsia can be drawn from our contribution. We conclude that gorgonopsians were likely ambush predators, able to chase their prey over short distances and pin them down with strong forelimbs before using their canines for the kill. This is evidenced by their different fore- and hindlimb morphology; the former stouter and more robust in comparison to the longer, more gracile, back legs. Furthermore, the completeness of the study specimen facilitates calculation of an estimated body mass of approximately 98 kg, similar to that of a modern lioness.

description: Herbert (Freddie) Gutfreund (hereafter called Freddie) made fundamental contributions to molecular enzymology—a name he introduced into the UK Biochemical Society as its first subgroup and as a discipline within the field of biochemistry. Freddie was born in Austria but moved to the UK in 1938, aged 17, during the upheavals across Europe leading up to World War II. He initially worked as a farm hand before his motivation in science took him first to the University of Liverpool, then Imperial College London as a Research Assistant, and on to Cambridge University. His experiences in Cambridge and the friends he made there during the foundation of modern molecular biology in the 1950s remained a major influence throughout his later career. He spent a short period at the National Dairying Research Institute near Reading, followed by the major part of his career at Bristol University, where he founded the Molecular Enzymology Laboratory within the Department of Biochemistry. He developed and encouraged a school of physical biochemistry built especially around the field of transient kinetics of enzyme-catalysed reactions. Freddie will probably be remembered most for the impact he made in his journal publications and through his four books, written over more than four decades, each around some aspect of molecular enzymology.

description: Most large engineering structures are described as assemblies of plates and shells and they are computed as such using adhoc Finite Element packages. In fact their computation in 3D would be much too costly. In this framework, the connections between the parts are often modeled by means of simplified tying models. In order to improve the reliability of such simulations, we propose to apply a non-intrusive technique so as to virtually substitute the simplified connectors by a precise 3D nonlinear model, without modifying the global plate model. Moreover each computation can be conducted on independent optimized software. After a description of the method, examples are used to analyze its performance, and to draw some conclusions on the validity and limitation of both the modeling of junction by rigid connectors and the use of submodeling techniques for the estimation of the carrying capacity of bolted plates.

description: A fundamental assumption in the theory of brane world is that all matter and radiation are confined on the four-dimensional brane and only gravitons can propagate in the five-dimensional bulk spacetime. The brane world theory did not provide an explanation for the existence of electromagnetic fields and the origin of the electromagnetic field equation. In this paper, we propose a model for explaining the existence of electromagnetic fields on a brane and deriving the electromagnetic field equation. Similar to the case in Kaluza-Klein theory, we find that electromagnetic fields and the electromagnetic field equation can be derived from the five-dimensional Einstein field equation. However, the derived electromagnetic field equation differs from the Maxwell equation by containing a term with the electromagnetic potential vector coupled to the spacetime curvature tensor. So it can be considered as generalization of the Maxwell equation in a curved spacetime. The gravitational field equation on the brane is also derived with the stress-energy tensor for electromagnetic fields explicitly included and the Weyl tensor term explicitly expressed with matter fields and their derivatives in the direction of the extra-dimension. The model proposed in the paper can be regarded as unification of electromagnetic and gravitational interactions in the framework of brane world theory.

description: Η Ελλάδα αποτελεί μια χώρα της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης με σημαντική γεωστρατηγική θέση, αφού τα σύνορα της αποτελούν και σύνορα της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης τόσο με την Ασία, όσο και με την Αφρική. Η Ελλάδα βρίσκεται πάντα σε θέση να πρέπει να αντιμετωπίζει τις προκλήσεις της γείτονας χώρας Τουρκίας, η οποία ως χώρα της Μεσογείου αλλά και ενδιάμεση χώρα μεταξύ Ασίας και Ευρώπης έχει να διαχειριστεί εκατομμύρια μεταναστών οι οποίοι την χρησιμοποιούν ως χερσαία και θαλάσσια δίοδο ώστε να περάσουν στην Ελλάδα και από εκεί στις υπόλοιπες χώρες της Ευρώπης. Το μεσογειακό μεταναστευτικό ζήτημα έχει σημαντικές επιπτώσεις στην παγκόσμια κοινότητα, συμπεριλαμβανομένων οικονομικών, πολιτικών και κοινωνικών προεκτάσεων. Το θέμα έχει αποτελέσει αντικείμενο πολλών μελετών και εκθέσεων, συμπεριλαμβανομένων εκείνων της Ευρωπαϊκής Οικονομικής και Κοινωνικής Επιτροπής . Το ζήτημα των μεταναστευτικών πολιτικών έχει γίνει ένα κρίσιμο ζήτημα για τους υπεύθυνους χάραξης πολιτικής, με συζητήσεις για τους τύπους πολιτικών που πρέπει να εφαρμοστούν. Το μεταναστευτικό ζήτημα αποτέλεσε επίσης αντικείμενο πολιτιστικών και κοινωνικών συζητήσεων, με ζητήματα ταυτότητας και πολιτισμικής πολυμορφίας. Ως αποτέλεσμα, το μεσογειακό μεταναστευτικό ζήτημα έχει καταστεί ένα σύνθετο ζήτημα που απαιτεί μια ολοκληρωμένη προσέγγιση για την αντιμετώπιση των οικονομικών, πολιτικών και κοινωνικών συνεπειών του.

description: In the present paper, a flexible and parsimonious model of the vibrations of nonlinear mechanical systems is introduced in the form of state-space equations. It is shown that the nonlinear model terms can be formed using a limited number of output measurements. A two-step identification procedure is derived for this grey-box model, integrating nonlinear subspace initialisation and maximum likelihood optimisation. The complete procedure is demonstrated on the Silverbox benchmark, which is an electrical mimicry of a single-degree-of-freedom mechanical system with one displacement-dependent nonlinearity.

description: Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are pervading different application domains by relying on sensing and actuating devices that share, process and present meaningful real-world information. One of the most important of these domains is certainly the Smart Grid (SG), where the use of advanced measurement and control equipment and the diffusion of communication technologies are making an adaptive, reliable, and efficient management of the energy possible, with several new applications. In this scenario, this paper focuses on one of the major IoT features, which is the virtualization, and proposes an IoT solution for wide area measurement systems where virtualized phasor measurement resources are introduced. Such a solution is intended to make a programmable and smart environment fostering interoperability, reusability and flexibility of SG services. The performance of the system is evaluated for both the traffic generated and the latency to understand which scenarios can benefit from its deployment.

description: Ο ΄΄ελληνικός΄΄ ή καλύτερα ΄΄τούρκικος΄΄ είναι το πιο δημοφιλές ρόφημα καφέ στην Ελλάδα που σερβίρεται σε μικρό φλιτζάνι με αφρό (στο επάνω μέρος) και ίζημα- (στο κάτω μέρος) και ανήκει στην κατηγορία ροφημάτων καφέ που παρασκευάζονται με βρασμό. Παρά την ευρεία κατανάλωση του ΄΄ελληνικού΄΄-΄΄τούρκικου΄΄ καφέ, οι μελέτες οργανοληπτικής ανάλυσης σχετικά με αυτό το είδος ροφήματος, είναι εξαιρετικά περιορισμένες. Η συγκεκριμένη μελέτη έγινε με σκοπό την οργανοληπτική ανάλυση και τον χαρακτηρισμό ενός πλήθους δειγμάτων ελληνικού καφέ, και συσχέτιση των αποτελεσμάτων, με αυτά των ενόργανων χημικών μετρήσεων αυτών. Χρησιμοποιήθηκαν, είκοσι εννέα (29) καφέ-δες διαφορετικών βαθμών καβουρδίσματος, από τους οποίους δεκαέξι (16) ήταν του εί-δους Arabica και δεκατρείς (13) από χαρμάνια Arabica-Robusta. Για την αξιολόγηση και τον χαρακτηρισμό του μεγάλου αυτού αριθμού δειγμάτων, εφαρμόστηκε για πρώτη φορά στον καφέ, η μέθοδος Polarized Projective Mapping, μία ταχεία, ολιστική, έμμεση μέθο-δος που βασίζεται στις ομοιότητες και διαφορές των δειγμάτων, ακολουθούμενη από μια γρήγορη περιγραφική ανάλυση Ultra Flash Profiling. Για την εξαγωγή των πόλων της με-θόδου Polarized Projective Mapping προηγήθηκε μια συνεδρία με τη μέθοδο Projective Mapping. Τα δείγματα αξιολογήθηκαν από δώδεκα (12) μέλη του οργανοληπτικού πάνελ οίνου του τμήματος Επιστημών Οίνου, Αμπέλου και Ποτών. Η ανάλυση των δεδομένων με τη χρήση της στατιστικής μεθόδου Multiple Factor Analysis (MFA), έδωσε μια ξεκά-θαρη διάκριση και ομαδοποίηση των δειγμάτων. Συγκεκριμένα, η ομαδοποίηση των δειγμάτων βάση των οργανοληπτικών χαρακτηριστικών τους, συσχετίστηκε έντονα με το βαθμό καβουρδίσματος (light , medium, dark) των προϊόντων, καθώς και με το είδος των κόκκων (Arabica, Arabica-Robusta) που είχαν σαν πρώτη ύλη. Επιπροσθέτως, η εφαρμογή της Ultra Flash Profiling παρείχε σημαντικά στοιχεία σχετικά με τα αρωματικά και γευ-στικά προφίλ των δειγμάτων. Τέλος, βρέθηκε και μια επαρκής συσχέτιση των αποτελεσμάτων της οργανοληπτικής μελέτης με τις παραμέτρους χρώματος, που εξήχθησαν μέσω ενόργανης ανάλυσης.

description: Mulberry (Morus sp.) is subject to a variety of insect and non-insect pests, with over 200 species identified. These pests are classified into leaf-eating, sap-feeding, stem-boring, and root-feeding varieties. The Bihar hairy caterpillar (Spilosoma obliqua) and the tussock caterpillar (Euproctis fraterna) are lepidopteran pests that defoliate foliage, causing substantial damage. The wasp moth (Ammata passalis) and cutworm (Spodoptera litura) also cause leaf damage and defoliation. The mulberry leaf roller (Diaphania pulverulentalis) compromises leaf integrity via webbing and rolling. Dipteran pests include the shoot gall midge (Diplosis mori), numerous scale insects, mealy bugs (Meconellicoccus hirsutus), spiralling white flies (Aleurodecus dispersus), leaf hoppers (Empoasca flavescens), and thrips (Pseudodendrothrips mori), all of which have an impact on plant health and production. To mitigate these, management options include physical, biological, and chemical measures are used.

description: We compute the coefficients of the polynomials $C_n(q)$ defined by the equation \begin{equation*} 1 + \sum_{n\geq 1} \, \frac{C_n(q)}{q^n} \, t^n = \prod_{i\geq 1}\, \frac{(1-t^i)^2}{1-(q+q^{-1})t^i + t^{2i}} \, . \end{equation*} As an application we obtain an explicit formula for the zeta function of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a two-dimensional torus and show that this zeta function satisfies a remarkable functional equation. The polynomials $C_n(q)$ are divisible by $(q-1)^2$. We also compute the coefficients of the polynomials $P_n(q) = C_n(q)/(q-1)^2$: each coefficient counts the divisors of $n$ in a certain interval; it is thus a non-negative integer. Finally we give arithmetical interpretations for the values of $C_n(q)$ and of $P_n(q)$ at $q = -1$ and at roots of unity of order $3$, $4$, $6$.

description: Herbert (Freddie) Gutfreund (hereafter called Freddie) made fundamental contributions to molecular enzymology—a name he introduced into the UK Biochemical Society as its first subgroup and as a discipline within the field of biochemistry. Freddie was born in Austria but moved to the UK in 1938, aged 17, during the upheavals across Europe leading up to World War II. He initially worked as a farm hand before his motivation in science took him first to the University of Liverpool, then Imperial College London as a Research Assistant, and on to Cambridge University. His experiences in Cambridge and the friends he made there during the foundation of modern molecular biology in the 1950s remained a major influence throughout his later career. He spent a short period at the National Dairying Research Institute near Reading, followed by the major part of his career at Bristol University, where he founded the Molecular Enzymology Laboratory within the Department of Biochemistry. He developed and encouraged a school of physical biochemistry built especially around the field of transient kinetics of enzyme-catalysed reactions. Freddie will probably be remembered most for the impact he made in his journal publications and through his four books, written over more than four decades, each around some aspect of molecular enzymology.
