Multiwavelength studies of classical novae by Aydi, Elias

“…Classical novae are transient astronomical events resulting from an eruption on the surface of an accreting white dwarf in interacting binary stars, namely cataclysmic variables. These eruptions and their progenitors are ideal astronomical events/objects to study a variety of interesting topics, such as mass-transfer mechanisms, binary evolution, and thermonuclear and radiative emission processes. …”

Association between infant feeding practices and infant growth by maternal HIV and antiretroviral therapy status: A prospective study in Cape Town, South Africa by Rhoda, Janice

“…Feeding data and infant anthropometry were collected at birth, 7 days, 10 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months postpartum. Infant weight and length at birth were converted to weight-for-age (WAZ) and length-forage (LAZ) using Intergrowth-21st software, and the World Health Organization (WHO)-Anthro survey analyzer tool was used to obtain these and weight-for-length z-scores (WLZ) from 10 weeks old. …”

The effect of clothing and carrion biomass load on decomposition and scavenging in a forensically significant thicketed habitat in Cape Town, South Africa by Jan Spies, Maximilian

“…The decay of ten ~60 kg porcine carcasses, as proxies for human decomposition, was quantitatively examined using daily weight loss. This occurred over two consecutive summers and winters between 2018 and 2020, initially comparing clothed versus unclothed carcasses, then examining single clothed carcasses to ascertain the effect of carrion biomass load. …”
