Around 60% of drinking water in the Netherlands is from groundwater, often containing high concentrations of dissolved iron. This is generally removed by aeration, which is an important process in both drinking- and waste water treatment. The known disadvantages are high energy consumption relative to …

Who are you in the digital public sphere? Are you »a woman«, »a man« or a robot? Are you classified as »right-wing« or »left-wing«?

Likewise, meme communities tend to adopt a politics that is conservative - especially when the source material readily lends itself to that very politics. In the case of Star Wars, a tale of heroism is being twisted …

We generalize the method of computing functional determinants with a single excluded zero eigenvalue developed by McKane and Tarlie to differential operators with multiple zero eigenvalues. We derive general formulas for such functional determinants of $r\times r$ matrix second order differential operators …

Seven new 1,3,5-cyclohexyltricarboxamide-phenylalanine derivatives were synthesized in order to investigate the effect of the amino acid chirality on the gelating properties of these small molecules in water. Gelation tests have shown that enantiomerically pure homochiral 1,3,5-cyclohexyltricarboxamide-L-phenylalanine …
