    Abstract The Diode Pumped Optical Laser for Experiments (DiPOLE) project at the Central Laser Facility aims to develop a scalable, efficient high pulse energy diode pumped laser amplifier system based on cryogenic gas cooled, multi-slab ceramic Yb:YAG technology. We present recent results obtained from a scaled down prototype laser system designed for operation at 10 Hz pulse repetition rate. At 140 K, the system generated 10.8 J of energy in a 10 ns pulse at 1029.5 nm when pumped by 48 J of diode energy at 940 nm, corresponding to an optical to optical conversion efficiency of 22.5%. To our knowledge, this represents the highest pulse energy obtained from a cryo cooled Yb laser to date and the highest efficiency achieved by a multi-Joule diode pumped solid state laser system. Additionally, we demonstrated shot-to-shot energy stability of 0.85% rms for the system operated at 7 J, 10 Hz during several runs lasting up to 6 hours, with more than 50 hours in total. We also demonstrated pulse shaping capability and report on beam, wavefront and focal spot quality.

    Abstract Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is a well-established and sensitive analytical technique, which provides high-resolution imaging of endogenous elements, element tagged-markers, metal-containing nanoparticles, and metallodrugs within cells. Here we describe a protocol for imaging the subcellular distribution of platinum within A549 cells, following their incubation with the platinum-based anticancer agent, Oxaliplatin. We outline the essential steps in sample preparation and instrumental setup and discuss how the current generation of low-dispersion instruments facilitates new approaches to data acquisition and image processing. The protocol described herein can be easily adapted for other cell lines and metal-containing labeling agents.

    Abstract Introduction: Harm arising from National Health Service (NHS) healthcare results in significant human cost for the patient, those who care for them, and the medical staff involved. Furthermore, patient harm results in substantial financial costs to the public purse. Improving how NHS providers in England respond to patient harm could reduce the number of claims for clinical negligence brought against NHS. Doing so will ensure those affected receive the justice they deserve and protect the public purse. Law and policy are key to supporting providers of NHS healthcare to respond to patient harm but are not necessarily understood and therefore can be challenging to apply to practice. Research exploring how law and policy supports this understanding is limited. The purpose of this scoping review is to address this knowledge gap and improve understanding by critically evaluating how law and policy supports providers of NHS healthcare in England to respond to patient harm.
    Methods and analysis: The review will use the methodological framework proposed by Arskey and O'Malley, Levac et al and the Joanna Briggs Institute. Search strategies will be developed using selected key words and index terms. MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Westlaw and reference lists of relevant publications will be searched to identify relevant grey literature. Two reviewers will independently assess the extracted data against the eligibility criteria. All studies identified will be charted and the results presented as a narrative synthesis.

    Abstract Aquatic insects are a major indicator used to assess ecological condition in freshwater environments. However, current methods to collect and identify aquatic insects require advanced taxonomic expertise and rely on invasive techniques that lack spatio-temporal replication. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is emerging as a non-invasive complementary sampling method allowing broad spatio-temporal and taxonomic coverage. The application of PAM in freshwater ecosystems has already proved useful, revealing unexpected acoustic diversity produced by fishes, amphibians, submerged aquatic plants, and aquatic insects. However, the identity of species producing sounds remains largely unknown. Among them, aquatic insects appear to be the major contributor to freshwater soundscapes. Here, we estimate the potential number of soniferous aquatic insects worldwide using data from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. We found that four aquatic insect orders produce sounds totalling over 7000 species. This number is probably underestimated owing to poor knowledge of aquatic insects bioacoustics. We then assess the value of sound producing aquatic insects to evaluate ecological condition and find that they might be useful despite having similar responses in pristine and degraded environments in some cases. Both expert and automated identifications will be necessary to build international reference libraries and to conduct acoustic bioassessment in freshwaters. This article is part of the theme issue 'Towards a toolkit for global insect biodiversity monitoring'.

    Abstract Passive acoustic monitoring has been used for decades as a non‐invasive tool for quantifying biodiversity in terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Recently, there has been increased interest in the potential for the method to survey freshwater biodiversity. Fundamental aspects of freshwater soundscape phenology, however, often remain poorly understood, despite their importance for suitable survey design. To gain a greater understanding of daily acoustic variation in aquatic insect‐dominated temperate pond soundscapes, 840 hr of underwater sound recordings were collected from five ponds in the southwest of the U.K. We calculated six commonly used acoustic indices to investigate diel trends and evaluated the suitability of each acoustic index to identify biologically complex pond soundscapes. In addition, macroinvertebrates were collected from each pond to investigate potential drivers of diel soundscape variation. The ponds studied possessed clear patterns of daily acoustic variation, with acoustic activity typically peaking between 02:00 and 04:00 and around the solar noon. Acoustic Entropy showed the greatest variation between day and night soundscapes and was best suited for detecting overall daily acoustic variation in the study ponds. However, the Normalised Difference Soundscape Index and the Bioacoustic Index captured strong diel variation in aquatic insect‐dominated soundscapes. Furthermore, we calculated that a minimum hydrophone deployment time of 24 hr is required to ensure that soundscape variation is adequately captured. This study provides an increased understanding of daily acoustic variation in insect‐dominated temperate pond soundscapes, enabling us to provide guidelines for the design and implementation of future passive acoustic monitoring surveys. We suggest that a minimum of 24 hr is required to adequately capture pond soundscape variation. This will increase the chance of detecting key soniferous species in the soundscape and enable more accurate assessments of temperate pond soundscapes.
