Article Abstract
We report full quantum-computed average microcanonical, initial state-specific, and canonical cumulative time-delays associated with the O + O scattering, presented as a function of total energy (in relation to an idealized molecular beam experiment) or temperature (for the properties of the gas phase in bulk conditions). We show that these quantities are well-defined and computable, with a temperature-dependent (canonical) time-delay presenting a smooth, monotonic decreasing behavior with temperature, despite an energy-dependent (microcanonical) time-delay of apparent chaotic character. We discuss differences in behavior when considering isotopic variations, O + OO and O + OO, with respect to the reference process O + OO and reveal a greater magnitude of the cumulative time-delay when genuinely reactive events can take place, in the presence of O. These results constitute an addition to more conventional fashions (like cross sections and rate constants) of displaying information related to collisions in various experimental contexts.

Background: Malaria remains a climate-driven public health issue in Burkina Faso, yet the interactions between climatic factors and malaria interventions across different zones are not well understood. This study estimates time delays in the effects of climatic factors on malaria incidence, develops forecasting models, and assesses their short-term forecasting performance across three distinct climatic zones: the Sahelian zone (hot/arid), the Sudano-Sahelian zone (moderate temperatures/rainfall); and the Sudanian zone (cooler/wet).
Methods: Monthly confirmed malaria cases of children under five during the period 2015-2021 were analyzed using Bayesian generalized autoregressive moving average negative binomial models.
Microseconds-level coding of echo delay in the auditory brainstem of an FM-echolocating bat.

Echolocating big brown bats () detect changes in ultrasonic echo delay with an acuity as sharp as 1 µs or less. How this perceptual feat is accomplished in the nervous system remains unresolved. Here, we examined the precision of latency registration (latency jitter) in neural population responses as a possible mechanism underlying the bat's hyperacuity.

In the face of an infectious disease, a key epidemiological measure is the basic reproduction number, which quantifies the average secondary infections caused by a single case in a susceptible population. In practice, the effective reproduction number, denoted as , is widely used to assess the transmissibility of the disease at a given time t. Real-time estimating this metric is vital for understanding and managing disease outbreaks.

Article Synopsis
- The rotary motor is essential for motion execution, but an issue with eccentricity between the encoder grating and motor shaft can lead to measurement inaccuracies.
- To solve this, a new automated mounting system was proposed, using a near-sensor detector and push rod to calculate eccentricity in real-time while improving speed and accuracy.
- The system achieves a mounting task in about 25.1 seconds and can calculate eccentricity within 2.8 seconds, resulting in an average eccentricity of just 3.8 µm after installation.
