Extreme Heating of Minor Ions in Imbalanced Solar-wind Turbulence by Michael F. Zhang, Matthew W. Kunz, Jonathan Squire, Kristopher G. Klein

“…We use the hybrid-kinetic particle-in-cell code Pegasus++ to drive imbalanced Alfvénic turbulence in a 3D low- β plasma with additional passive ion species, He ^2+ and O ^5+ . A helicity barrier naturally develops, followed by clear phase-space signatures of oblique proton-cyclotron-wave heating and Landau-resonant heating from the imbalanced Alfvénic fluctuations. …”

Family Practitioners and Sexually Transmitted Diseases by Marc Steben

“…Secondary prevention refers to the recognition and elimination (if possible) of an STD after exposure and includes early disease detection, adequate STD treatments, screening, human immunodeficiency virus testing with pre- and post test counselling, epidemiological treatment of patient contacts, and hepatitis B prophylaxis by passive or active immunization. Tertiary prevention is aimed at limiting disease progression or reversing damage, but such measures are usually quite expensive and of limited value. …”

Span-of-control’s role at the intersection of transactional leadership and employee commitment by Tabea R. Mabasa, Chukuakadibia E. Eresia-eke

“…Main findings: The study reveals that span of control does not moderate the relationship between contingent reward behaviour or management by exception (Passive) and employee commitment. However, span of control moderates the relationship between management by exception (Active) and affective commitment, but not with normative commitment or continuance commitment. …”
