Golden Ratio in DNA: Claimed but Unsupported by Direct Measurement Evidence — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: DNA helix dimensions are claimed to encode golden ratio proportions, but direct measurement evidence from the provided sources is absent; the links are primarily promotional or speculative. MATH: No equations, constants, or ratios are explicitly derived from the search r...

The Impact of AI-Assisted Adaptive Training Approach on Radiation Safety Competence in Healthcare Workers

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of an artificial intelligence (AI)- based adaptive training model on the radiation safety competence (knowledge, attitude, and protective behavior) of healthcare professionals.Method: The research was conducted in a quasi-exper...

Icosahedral Symmetry in Quasicrystals: Forbidden in Crystals, Emergent via Higher-Dimensional Projections — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Icosahedral 5-fold symmetry is forbidden in periodic crystals but emerges in quasicrystals via irrational projections from higher-dimensional lattices, linking to icosahedral group representations and viral capsid geometry. | MATH: Icosahedral group (order 60, simple gro...

Sumerian Base-60 System: Divisibility and Fractional Efficiency in Ancient Computation — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Sumerian base-60 (sexagesimal) system enabled efficient computation with large numbers, division, and multiplication, likely chosen for its high divisibility (factors: 1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60) and its natural fit for representing fractions without repeating decimal...

Icosahedral Quasicrystals: Forbidden 5-Fold Symmetry from 8D E8 Lattice Projection — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Quasicrystals exhibit icosahedral symmetry with forbidden 5-fold rotational order, realized via irrational projection from higher-dimensional lattices (e.g., E8 root system in 8D). MATH: - Icosahedral symmetry group: \( H_3 \) (Coxeter group), order 120. - Forbidden rota...

A Possible Algebraic Resolution of the Quantum Measurement Problem via Dissipative Refinement Flow on Fano Incidence Geometry

We propose a possible algebraic resolution of the quantum measurement problem by deriving wavefunction collapse as a consequence of dissipative dynamics, rather than postulating it as an additional axiom. Working within the Jordan-Clifford immersive framework previously developed...

3D Quasicrystals from 6D Lattices with Base-60 Rotational Symmetry — E8 Intelligence Research

Driver‐Centric Vehicle Routing for Parcel Delivery

ABSTRACT One issue parcel delivery drivers are facing in their workplace is the limited access to restrooms. Because drivers are constantly pressured to meet the demanding performance standards called work quotas, they have little time to visit restrooms while working, often forc...

The Carbon Handshake Architecture: From Verified Carbon to Settled Farmer Income

Smallholder carbon finance in India is constrained not only by methodology or market access, but by fragmentation across farmer enrolment, evidence generation, verification, transition finance, aggregation, registry operations, benefit sharing and payment settlement. This paper f...

Quantum Entanglement Collapses Quantum Verification Hierarchy to Recursively Enumerable Class — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: MIP*=RE proves quantum entanglement can verify undecidable problems, collapsing the quantum verification hierarchy into the classical recursively enumerable class. | MATH: MIP* = RE (where MIP* = multiprover interactive proofs with quantum entanglement, RE = recursively...

Availability and Quality of Electronic Health Record Data to Track Physical Function Across a Care Transition

ABSTRACT Introduction Physical function (PF) is critical to quality of life and healthcare value, especially for older adults following hospitalization. Monitoring PF supports recovery, reduces adverse events, and improves care transitions. Despite the potential of electronic hea...

After Turing: The Fold Machine

Published open-access status correction for After Turing: The Fold Machine, version 1.5.1. This patch removes erroneous prepublication wording from the already-published paper and changes no scientific content.

Lineage-Associated Genomic and Phenotypic Features of Bovine Mastitis-Associated Staphylococcus aureus from Northwestern China

Staphylococcus aureus is a major contagious pathogen causing bovine mastitis, with persistence and antimicrobial resistance posing ongoing challenges in dairy herds. From July 2022 to July 2023, 942 mastitis milk samples (267 clinical, 675 subclinical) from 10 farms in northweste...

Final Judgment: All "Incommensurabilities" Are Darkness-under-the-Lamp Projections; All "Hard Problems" Are Pseudo-Propositions — The Sealing Chapter of Yuanxian Theory (Ring-Style Monistic Final Version)

Yuanxian Theory is the meta-cognition of the Cosmic Living Organism. This document is the sealing chapter of the Yuanxian Theory series. After excluding the three alternatives—mechanistic cosmology, accidentalism of life, and the secondary-consciousness thesis—it establishes “the...

The Strong Evoluist Structural Alternative

This consolidated technical publication is the third study in the formal Evoluist research programme. It continues the status-diagonal analysis developed in The Evoluist Theorem: Formal Core and the investigation of distributed and indexed coordination developed in Indexed Evalua...

Universality of the Spectral Memory Scale Across Few-Body Nuclear Systems

In standard nuclear Effective Field Theory (EFT), the ultraviolet (UV) sensitivity of the three-body sector (Thomas collapse) is resolved by introducing a phenomenological, cutoff-dependent three-nucleon force (3NF) counterterm. In this work, part of the History-Dependent Gravity...

Workplace Violence in Indonesian Clinical Learning Environments: Cultural and Organisational Contexts Shaping Nursing Students' Experiences

Workplace violence in clinical learning environments is increasingly recognised as a threat to nursing education and workforce sustainability, yet it is often understood as a series of isolated incidents rather than as a condition shaped by broader cultural and organisational for...

Golden Ratio as a Universal Boundary in Self-Referential Systems and Quasicrystals — E8 Intelligence Research

**FINDING:** The golden ratio (Φ) appears as a stable local recurrence boundary in self-referential systems, linking irrational approximation dynamics to projective harmonic division and quasicrystalline order. **MATH:** - Golden ratio: Φ = (1+√5)/2 ≈ 1.6180339887 - Reciprocal: 1...

Effect of Virtual Reality (VR) Guided Meditation on Patient Anxiety Level during the Operative Period after Axillary Brachial Plexus Block

Background and aims: We aimed to explore an innovative alternative to traditional sedation for patients undergoing hand surgery under re- gional anaesthesia. We used virtual reality (VR)-guided meditation and measured patient anxiety levels before and after the operation, as well...

Message design for guilt-based green advertising: whether and how to highlight moral transgression, personal responsibility, and efficacy

Guilt appeals are frequently used in green advertising. However, there has yet to be an agreement reached on the development of guilt appeals. Based on appraisal theories and extended parallel process model, our study proposes that three appraisal-related message components (i.e....
