Smart without the local? Experimenting with smart grids in India’s urban energy transitions

India’s urban energy systems face significant challenges in modernizing electricity distribution networks while integrating emerging technologies for decarbonization. Smart grids, promoted under the National Smart Grid Mission (NSGM), have been positioned as key instruments to di...

Quantitative Characterization of RNA-Splinted Ligation as a Multipurpose Post-Synthetic Strategy for High-Density DNA Microarrays Synthesized by Nucleic Acid Photolithography

Abstract Complex arrays of surface-immobilized DNA oligonucleotides are widely used across diverse fields of bioanalytics, particularly for their applications in massively parallel genomic assays ranging from spatial transcriptomics to protein–DNA recognition studies. DNA microar...

Following Transient Conformational Adaptations during Peptide-Guided Calcium Phosphate Biomineralization with Hyperpolarized NMR

Abstract Peptide-guided biomineralization is a key process involved in the formation of calcium phosphate (CaP) in bone, yet the peptide–ion encounter complexes at the onset of this process have remained structurally invisible: methods with sufficient resolution to decipher these...

PLATO, GORGIAS 448c2

Abstract This article defends the transmitted text of a passage of Plato’s Gorgias against a suggestion first proposed by L.F. Heindorf in 1805 and adopted by all subsequent editors.

Seeding Norms by Making the Invisible Visible in a Field Study on Pro-Environmental Change

Most people are concerned about environmental issues, but underestimate others’ concern due to a lack of visible pro-environmental behaviour. This misperception creates a cycle of inaction, as people are less likely to act sustainably when they assume others do not share their pr...

Anthropology at a critical juncture in Pakistan: slow epistemic exclusion, disciplinary value, and futures beyond the ivory tower

Abstract Questions about anthropology’s gradually declining enrollment and uncertain career prospects repeatedly surface in Pakistan. These concerns range from a staff member asking, “What has happened to anthropology?” to students questioning what opportunities a degree in the d...

Toll-like receptor 2 modulates age-associated insulitis and fibrotic remodeling of Langerhans islets

Abstract Background The steadily increasing aging population highlights the importance of maintaining health at an advanced age. Metabolic diseases are among the most prevalent age-related disorders, and the Langerhans islets, critical regulators of glucose homeostasis, are parti...

Effects of fine-scale topographic variation on climatic connectivity in alpine landscapes

Abstract As climate change renders current habitats unsuitable for plant species, dispersal to favourable locations is an essential strategy for their populations’ persistence. In mountainous regions, climate warming may force species to move upward along elevational gradients or...

FEM-BEM coupling for the high-frequency Helmholtz problem

Abstract We present a wavenumber-explicit analysis of the FEM-BEM coupling methods for time-harmonic Helmholtz problems proposed in [1] for conforming discretizations and in [2] for discontinuous Galerkin (DG) volume discretizations. We show that the conditions that kh / p be suf...

A New Late Gravettian Mammoth Bone Deposit in Bukov, Ústí nad Labem, North Bohemia

Mammoth hunting and the exploitation of mammoth resources is one of the most characteristic features of the Gravettian culture in Central Europe. The exact nature of the mammoth-human relationship has been a subject of scientific debate since the first excavations of mammoth bone...

Teacher grades for university entrance qualification: comparing classroom grades with standardised examination scores before and after a grading reform

For university entrance qualifications, there is tension between relying on teacher grades and external examination results. In 2020, an Austrian grading reform allowed teacher grades to be averaged with examination results to form university entrance grades, raising concerns abo...

Sociolinguists against the AI hype? AI tools in sociolinguistics scholarship

Abstract This paper examines sociolinguists’ views of and engagement with artificial intelligence technology in sociolinguistics scholarship, an area that has received little systematic attention to date. Drawing on a global survey of 274 respondents, the study reveals that while...

The Python simulations of chemistry framework: 10 years of an open-source quantum chemistry project

Over the past decade, the Python-based Simulations of Chemistry Framework (PySCF) has developed into a widely used open-source platform for electronic-structure theory and quantum chemical method development. This article reviews the major advances since the previous overview in...

Time and landscape context shape insular bat responses to wildfire

Abstract Background Wildfires are increasing in frequency and severity, yet their longer-term effects on island bats remain poorly understood. We assessed temporal and landscape-dependent patterns in bat activity following the 2016 wildfires on Madeira by resurveying 58 acoustic...

The role of sport and physical activity within the rehabilitation and reintegration process: a longitudinal case study of a formerly incarcerated man

The purpose of prison to punish individuals while also functioning as a space for rehabilitation and personal change is a tension that is particularly relevant when considering interventions such as sport. Sport and physical activity adopt multiple roles in prisons and may be exp...

Galaxy luminosity functions from far-UV to submillimetre at z = 0 in the COLIBRE simulations

Abstract We present predictions from the colibre cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation for the present-day galaxy luminosity functions (LFs) at wavelengths ranging from the far-ultraviolet (FUV) to the submillimetre. The simulations are post-processed with t...

OPTICAT: A Deep Reinforcement Learning Framework for Instance-Specific Algorithm Configuration

Optimization algorithms contain parameters that greatly influence their behavior. Finding the right settings for parameters through automated algorithm configuration has become a critical component of designing competitive algorithms. While traditional offline configurators tackl...
