We report the discovery of a sextuply eclipsing sextuple star system from TESS data, TIC 168789840, also known as TYC 7037-89-1, the first known sextuple system consisting of three eclipsing binaries. The target was observed in Sectors 4 and 5 during... Read More about TIC 168789840: A Sextuply Eclipsing Sextuple Star System.

Architectural elements in fluvial multi-storey sandbodies: deposition, preservation and numerical representation (2021)
Thesis
Mitten, A. J. (2021). Architectural elements in fluvial multi-storey sandbodies: deposition, preservation and numerical representation. (Thesis). Keele University

The recoverable proportion of known mobile resources from fluvial multi-storey sandbodies (MSBs) reservoirs is relatively low. The low recovery proportion can be attributed to a lack of a three-dimensional understanding of the reservoir architecture,...

The physiological and ergogenic effects of exercise training with low carbohydrate availability: a review (2021)
Journal Article
with low carbohydrate availability: a review. https://doi.org/10.21252/k3za-8v42

Due to the importance of glycogen for energy production, research has traditionally recommended sufficient carbohydrate (CHO) availability to maximise exerciseperformance. However, recent evidence has suggested that undertaking some training sessions...

Morphologically similar benthic foraminiferal taxa can be difficult to separate. Aside from causing issues in taxonomy, incorrect identifications complicate our understanding of species-specific ecological preferences and result in flawed palaeoenvir...
