Green hydrogen promotion in Cameroon: Implications for sustainable development
This paper argues that green hydrogen could be a driver of the technological transformation of a small open economy well integrated into the global energy market. Green hydrogen development is key to a sustainable transition of the economy. It can replace CO 2 -intensive technolo...

Numerical simulation of nonlinear wave propagation under Type-1 and Type-2 fuzzy scenarios
Purpose This research aims to create and evaluate fuzzy numerical methods to solve the coupled Whitham–Broer–Kaup equations (cWBKEs). These equations are used to study nonlinear wave movement through shallow water waves (SSW) and related models. This research aims to improve unce...

Evidence in Networked Metaverse Systems: Comparability, Reproducibility, and Deployment
Metaverse research now spans immersive networking, edge computing, digital twins, semantic communication, artificial intelligence, security, interoperability, sustainability, and deployment. The field is technically rich, yet apparently similar results are frequently produced und...

BACKGROUND: Late diagnosis (LD) of HIV, defined as CD4 count <350 cells/μL or AIDS at diagnosis, remains a substantial public health challenge, with half of individuals in Europe diagnosed late. How long these individuals have lived with HIV remains unclear. We applied a multi-bi...

Advances in Photochemical Alkene Difunctionalization via Electron Donor–Acceptor (EDA) Complexes
Alkenes are ubiquitous and versatile feedstocks in organic synthesis. Alkene difunctionalization, which enables the simultaneous installation of two functional groups across the carbon–carbon double bond, represents a highly efficient strategy for constructing complex molecular a...

Thermally Reversible Transformation between Two Isomers of Silver Sulfide Magic-Size Clusters
Abstract Isomers of semiconductor magic-size clusters (MSCs) share the same molecular formula but can exhibit distinct optical and electronic properties. Most of the reported MSC isomers have been so far limited to cadmium chalcogenides. Herein, we report the reversible transform...

Money Creation for Crypto Space: Stablecoins or Central Bank Digital Currencies?
Stablecoins are the current go-to digital money to settle transactions on the blockchain. We explore the implications of introducing competing tokenized public digital monies (i.e., tokenized central bank digital currencies (CBDCs)). When they pay a moderate interest rate and gua...

Abstract Recycled plastic modified asphalt mixtures show varied performance due to the variability in dosage, differences in source of materials, incorporation method, inconsistency in modification techniques, and absence of global standardization. This study addresses the existi...

A KK-theoretic note on the spectral localiser
Abstract We review the construction of the spectral localiser (due to Loring and Schulz-Baldes) from a KK -theoretic perspective. We first give a KK -theoretic argument providing a spectral flow expression for the even or odd index pairing in terms of the “infinite volume” spectr...

Communal cattle farming in Sub-Saharan Africa continues to face destabilization from non-linear climate variability, yet insurance penetration remains negligible. In Lupane District, Zimbabwe, uptake is exceptionally low at approximately 0.01%, despite recurrent droughts that thr...

Reconfiguring Rubberwood Starch from a Weak Link to a Protective Shield against Decay and Mold
Abstract Starch has long been regarded as a critical weakness limiting rubberwood’s construction applications due to its hygroscopicity and mold susceptibility. Instead of removing or chemically modifying this component, we develop a green hydrothermal and controlled drying strat...

A modern reconstruction and analysis framework for the ILD ZHH study
Abstract Measuring the Higgs potential represents one of the main goals of the physics programs of future colliders. At center-of-mass energies of $$\sqrt{s} \ge {500\,\mathrm{\text {G}\text {eV}}}$$ s ≥ 500 G , direct access to the self-coupling $$\lambda$$ λ is enabled through...

FINDING: Undecidability is not a peripheral paradox but a structural invariant of formal systems, extending from classical computability (halting problem) into quantum many-body physics, where spectral gaps and ground-state properties become provably non-computable. | MATH: Halti...

Potential, challenges, and opportunities in the development of geothermal energy projects
Geothermal energy is an important yet insufficiently explored renewable source. Known for its supply stability and low environmental impact, it offers significant potential, however, broader adoption faces notable technical, economic, and regulatory challenges. This paper first e...

The Standard Model from One Matrix: S = ψ†L_Tψ
Version 3.0 (6 October 2026): the neutrino mass m3 is now compared with √Δm²31 = 50.28 ± 0.33 meV, the correct reference when m1 = 0, giving −2.4σ (see Paper #47 v2.0, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23176405); references to unpublished internal review notes have been removed, so nothing in t...
