The Achilles’ Heel of Lithium‐Ion Batteries: Protonic Species

ABSTRACT Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) are central to the global energy transition, dominating the markets for electric vehicles and grid‐scale renewable energy storage. However, as LIBs are pushed toward their theoretical energy density limits to meet ever‐escalating performance...

Evaluating the Impact of Surface Treatments on a Fluorinated Silicon Phthalocyanine Organic Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conductor

Abstract Small-molecule organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) offer an interesting alternative to polymers for the fabrication of reliable organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) thanks to their minimal batch-to-batch variability. The environmental and operationa...

Popularity Is Not Association: Auditing a Belief-Forming Rule Against 19,668 Respondents

A system that forms beliefs about people from partial evidence was tested against a population whose correlation structure the author did not choose. Two defects were found, and both were load-bearing. The rule that mined regularities recovered the dataset's known five-factor str...

Unsolved Math Problems as Symmetry-Breaking Phenomena — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Survey of unsolved problems (Collatz, Riemann Hypothesis, Millennium Problems) reveals no new solved mathematics, but highlights structural invariants (3n+1 dynamics, ζ(s) zeros, P vs NP) as unresolved symmetry-breaking phenomena. | MATH: Collatz map T(n)=n/2 if even, 3n...

Modelling and Evaluation of Nuclear Battery Designs and Performance

This study evaluates six nuclear battery conversion pathways as long-duration power sources for applications where conventional recharging, replacement, or maintenance access is limited. The methodology combines a technology and materials review, theoretical maximum-output models...

Gradient Orbital Coupling in Mn‐Doped Asymmetric Units Amplifies Red Emission of NH 4 CdCl 3 for X‐Ray Scintillation Imaging

ABSTRACT Halide perovskites are promising for applications in light‐emitting diodes, multilevel anti‐counterfeiting, and radiation detection due to their excellent luminescence properties. Mn 2+ doping can further tailor the optical properties of perovskites, yet its microscopic...

Clean Heating Renovation Differentially Reduces Nitro-PAH and Nitrated Phenol Exposure: Implications from Real-World Personal Monitoring and NF-κB-Based Toxicological Assessment

Abstract Nitrogen-containing organic compounds (NOCs) are key characteristic components in particulate matter (PM) from household solid fuel combustion, yet their personal exposure and class-dependent toxicity remain poorly characterized. We compared size-resolved personal exposu...

Blended Finance, Knowledge Management, And Product Innovation: Lessons from Nigeria's Farmcrowdy Enterprise

Blended finance has become a vital tool for mobilising resources into enterprises in developing economies, yet its ability to stimulate sustained product innovation remains uncertain. This study investigates how knowledge management (KM) practices enable blended-finance-backed fi...

LAB #1802 PROMISING: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: Phase distance TIGHT (<=2deg) — improves win rate from 31.9% to 36.3% (+ — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: Phase distance TIGHT (<=2deg) — improves win rate from 31.9% to 36.3% (+4.3pp, n=411) SAME-WINDOW EFFECT: Over the current live window, applying a phase-distance filter (≤2°) would have excluded...

Bioimpedance: From Body Composition Assessment to Emerging Technologies in Clinical Nutrition

This review examines the physical foundations, predictive models, emerging technologies and recent research trends in bioimpedance for clinical nutrition. A bibliometric analysis of cumulative scientific production from 1980 to 2025 shows that weighted logistic models provide a g...

Advanced Strategies for Comfort and Mechanical Performance of 3D-Printed Concrete Wall Structures: A State-of-the-Art Review

3D-printed structures are an important direction in green construction, but layer-wise deposition forms interlayer interfaces that strongly influence the axial compressive performance of printed walls. This paper reviews interlayer bonding, anisotropy, strengthening strategies, a...

Application of an Index Based on Aquatic Insect Biotic Integrity for River Ecosystem Health Assessment in Haihe River Basin, China

As critical biological components of freshwater ecosystems, aquatic insects are highly sensitive to cumulative anthropogenic disturbances and can effectively reflect long-term variations in river ecological quality, serving as ideal bioindicators for aquatic ecological monitoring...

Assessment of Nutritional Risk Representations in Publicly Available Data in Saudi Arabia: A Triangulated Scoping Study

Background: Saudi Arabia maintains official statistics on its food security, in addition to conducting surveys on health parameters and performing national health assessments. Also, several academic papers on dietary patterns are published every year. Many published documents ana...

Dissolved inorganic carbon in Chongqing urban section of Yangtze River, China

Understanding carbon cycling in reservoir ecosystems during hydrological regulation is essential for assessing inland water contributions to the global carbon cycle. Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) represents the dominant carbon pool in reservoir waters. In this study, Chongqing...

New Rank Record: Elliptic Curve over ℚ with Rank ≥29 — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Elliptic curve over ℚ with rank ≥29 discovered via Elkies-style construction; rank records for curves with rational torsion also advanced. | MATH: Rank r ≥ 29 (explicit curve not given in snippets, but Elkies' method typically uses polynomial parameterization + Mestre-Na...

Seed morphological screening improves germination efficiency but poorly predicts selfing in Eucalyptus hybrids

Breeding strategies in commercial Eucalyptus plantations have largely relied on crosses among hybrid genotypes, resulting in the recurrent selection of a limited number of superior clones. In this context, the development of inbred lines represents a complementary approach to bro...

Augmentative and Alternative Communication and Language: Some Old and New Urgent Issues

Some children struggle with speech development and a small minority never achieve intelligible speech. This review explores research on the use of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) to support their development of communication and language. There is no generally ac...

Stabilizing Grain Boundaries by Flexible Bidirectional Multisite Hydrazide Cations toward High-Performance Inverted Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract The grain boundary instability induced by defects and tensible strain impedes the realization of high-performance inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here, we propose a flexible bidirectional multisite additive strategy to stabilize perovskite. (6-(2,5-Dioxo-2,5-dihy...

Sensory plasticity of dorsal horn silent neurons as a critical mechanism for neuropathic pain

The spinal cord dorsal horn (DH) integrates sensory processing but undergoes critical plasticity following nerve injury, leading to mechanical allodynia, or “touch-evoked pain”. It has been proposed that after nerve injury, innocuous sensory neurons gain access to nociceptive-spe...
