A MultitaskLarge Reasoning Model for Molecular Science
Abstract Artificial intelligence in molecular science must move beyond pattern recognition toward chemically valid and interpretable reasoning. We present a task-adaptive large reasoning model that integrates chemical knowledge through a synergistic multispecialist architecture,...

Electrohydrodynamically Driven Broadband and Color‐Shifting in Cholesteric Liquid Crystals
ABSTRACT Rapid, multimode photonic bandgap tuning of cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) is achieved by harnessing ion‐driven electrohydrodynamic (EHD) effects. By utilizing CLCs with negative dielectric anisotropy doped with ions and applying low‐frequency AC voltage, two distinc...

Gamma-Irradiation-EnhancedReduction of 99Tc(VII) and Re(VII) by Natural Pyrite
Abstract Reductive immobilization of 99Tc(VII) to sparingly soluble TcO2-type phases is a key process limiting 99Tc transport in the environment. However, the reactivity of natural pyrite toward 99Tc(VII) under conditions relevant to nuclear waste repositories remains poorly unde...

ImbibitionTheory and Design for Multiscale MicropillarRandom Arrays
Abstract Efficient liquid transport in micrometer-scale confined spaces is crucial for phase-change thermal management systems, like heat pipes (HPs). While multiscale micropillar random arrays (MMRAs) demonstrate enhanced imbibition performance, their structural randomness has h...

Abstract Reliable and accurate physiological mechanosensing requires tactile sensors that maintain linearity across ultrawide ranges, yet most reported devices saturate below 500 kPa due to strain hardening and deformation saturation of elastic microstructures. Balancing this lon...

Matrix Stiffness-Encoded Mechanical Memory Maintains Proliferative Dominance in Metastatic Tumors
Primary and metastatic lesions share similar biological properties despite existing in different microenvironments. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the maintenance of phenotypic homogeneity in heterogeneous microenvironments could help identify strategies for...

Phylogeny and taxonomic revisions of Piper (Piperaceae) in Taiwan
Taiwan, located at the northernmost extent of Huxley's Line, marks the furthest point along this biogeographic boundary where exchanges of flora and fauna occur. The genus Piper, a globally distributed and taxonomically complex group of both economic and evolutionary importance,...

Assessing and predicting tourism readiness: a data-driven analysis of Niagara winery website
Purpose Research on wine tourism has traditionally emphasized onsite hospitality, regional branding and physical accessibility, while the role of digital readiness remains underexplored. This study aims to address that gap by developing a predictive framework that links wineries’...
