Comparing GenAI Summaries Versus Chatbots for Supporting Reflection in Healthcare Simulation
Reflection is critical for learning. In healthcare, simulations help learners practice clinical and teamwork skills, while reflection supports improving practice. Learning analytics (LA) dashboards can support reflection by visualizing activity data, but their effectiveness is li...

Multimodal imaging reveals no evidence for magnetite-based magnetoreceptors in the mole-rat eye
Magnetoreception is widespread across animals, but its sensory mechanism remains unresolved. One leading hypothesis proposes that single-domain magnetite is coupled to mechanosensitive ion channels. In subterranean Ansell's mole-rats, such receptors have been proposed to reside i...

Inducing Room Temperature Ferromagnetism in Phyllosilicates via Iron Implantation
Abstract The modulation of intrinsic two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetism has attracted significant attention due to its potential applications in spintronics and magnetic field sensing. However, the limited availability of intrinsically magnetic 2D materials has driven the explor...

Atomistic framework for glassy polymer viscoelasticity across twenty frequency decades
Glassy polymers are central to engineering applications, yet their viscoelastic response over broad frequency and temperature ranges remains difficult to characterize. We extend non-affine deformation theory by incorporating a time-dependent memory kernel within the generalized L...

Automated Spin‐Assisted Layer‐by‐Layer Epitaxy Produces Highly Oriented Mixed‐Linker MOF Thin Films
ABSTRACT Control over crystallographic orientation in metal‐organic framework (MOF) thin films is crucial for exploiting their anisotropic properties in sensing, catalysis, and separation. Achieving reproducible, highly oriented films remains challenging, especially for mixed‐lin...

On non-negative operators in Krein spaces and their perturbations
Abstract One of the most important contributions of Heinz Langer in the area of operator theory in Krein spaces is the introduction of the notion of definitizable operators and the construction of the corresponding spectral function. In this note we obtain a new characterization...

GHG reduction potential of biomass gasification pathways: An Austrian life cycle emission analysis
Dual fluidized-bed gasification of biomass is one way to defossilize the Austrian energy system. Although this technology is yet to be implemented on an industrial scale, it shows potential in terms of e.g. feedstock flexibility and product range. The present study assesses the s...

Qualitative changes in binocular rivalry experience with age
Abstract Binocular rivalry is a visual phenomenon that occurs when two dissimilar stimuli are presented to each eye. The perception alternates between dominance periods when one of the stimuli is perceived with brief transition periods in between, providing a unique window into t...
