A Scoping Review of Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation in South Sudan (2021–2026): Gendered Dimensions in Juba, Western Equatoria, Jonglei, and Eastern Equatoria

This scoping review provides a systematic mapping of the literature concerning the gendered dimensions of climate change impacts and adaptation in South Sudan. It addresses a critical gap in synthesising how climate-induced environmental changes, particularly those affecting natu...

V2R: Resonant Convergence in a Dynamically Coupled Phase Field Revisited — Claim-Bounded Numerical Audit of Model Closure, Associative Completion, Distributed Carrier Reorganization, and Directional Rejection

V2R is a structured numerical revision of the historical V2 study, Resonant Convergence in a Dynamically Coupled Field (2025). The original work contained several under-specified elements, including an undefined feedback function, a quartic spatial expression without a unique dyn...

Dissipative Gradient Dynamics: A Macroscopic Postulate and Its Mathematical Consequences

Dissipative processes are usually described through individual entities exchanging energy or matter. A relational framework is developed whose fundamental quantities are differences between modes rather than the modes themselves. In an isolated system, under appropriate condition...

A7U Molecular Visibility Transport: From Certified Source Gap to Talbot-Lau Matter-Wave Shape and Row-Packet Execution

A matter-wave visibility floor becomes physics only when a frozen source certificate produces a surviving experimental shape. The paper inserts the A7U source factor into the ordinary Talbot-Lau transport rather than replacing environmental decoherence: \[ B_n^{\rm QTT}(v) = B_n^...

Electrodynamics of Lattice Vacuum Defects: The Topological Origin of Drift-Induced Hole Generation

Traditional solid-state physics treats the hole as a mathematical abstraction—a vacant state at the top of a valence band assigned an effective mass mh* purely to balance transport equations—without offering a physical mechanism for why this mass spans more than an order of magni...

When LLMs Pass Tests but Fail the Process: Lessons from Governing a Multi-Agent Software Development Project

Software teams increasingly use large language models (LLMs) to plan, implement, and verify changes, but a passing test suite does not establish that the team built what was intended. This experience report describes an independent Ruby on Rails benchmark project in which a human...

Stochastic Morphogenetic Extensions of Autonomous Fractal Trees in D-Dimensional Spaces and Their Optical Rendering via Cascaded Perspective Projection with Lipschitzian Culling Stabilization

Traditional algorithmic frameworks for morphological synthesis, such as discrete L-systems, frequently induce structural dissociation under stochastic perturbation regimes due to the absence of geometric inheritance across ancestral lineages. This paper employs a novel algebraic...

Universal Mass Gap Formula ∆m = m0 ln K: Spontaneous Kubo-Martin-Schwinger State Emergence with Maximal Quantum Chaos

We demonstrate that quark confinement and a non-zero quantized mass gap naturally emerge from deterministic, exactly solvable chaotic dynamics. Crucially, the fluctuation spectrum is natively quantized by discrete Lyapunov exponents λL = lnK, yielding a universal logarithmic mass...

TRIAD UNIT TESTS 1.3: Unit Testing Specification for TRIAD 6.0 Core Mathematics

Unit Testing Specification for TRIAD 6.0 Core Mathematics Document Version: 1.3 adversarial-grade Target: Formal ontology core (Part I, Chapters 1–9) + Pragma Forge Logs 1A,1B,2A,2B Scope: Pure functions and logical invariants; no external simulators Testing framework: pytest + h...

AST: Theorem Realisation, Representation, and Downstream Translation Between Theory Form and Empirical Instantiation

This working paper specifies the intermediate methodological layer between AST-based theory generation and downstream empirical operationalisation. It addresses how a completed theorematic structure can be represented, normalised, translated, and frozen for empirical use without...

Cytotoxic Effects of Carboxyl-Modified Polystyrene Microplastics: Differential Effects on Hepatoma Cells and Immortalized Hepatocytes

Carboxyl-modified polystyrene microplastics (cPS-MPs) may accumulate in the liver and interfere with cellular metabolism; however, their effects may differ substantially between cancerous and non-cancerous hepatocytes. In this study, we compared the responses of HUH-7 hepatocellu...

Hidden barriers of education and artificial intelligence: rethinking equity, affordances and ability

Purpose This article investigates how artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes digital inequality in education by introducing the concepts of the AI divide and ability divide. It examines how exclusion emerges not only from unequal access or skills but from differential capacities t...

Frequency effects of alternating dielectric-barrier-discharge plasma actuation on turbulent flow of circular cylinder

Abstract An in-house solver for the three-dimensional, unsteady, compressible Navier–Stokes equations with a large-eddy simulation (LES) turbulence model is applied to simulate the unsteady flow over a circular cylinder at a Reynolds number of 15,000 under the control of a pair o...

Co-creating an intergenerational intervention to enhance physical activity in the older adult population: A qualitative study of the engAGE project

Background Older adults are the most sedentary population segment, and effective, sustainable interventions are needed to modify these behaviours. Intergenerational and participatory approaches may enhance adherence and support long-term engagement. This study reports on the co-c...

Incidence and factors associated with surgical site infection following coronary artery bypass grafting in Nepal: a prospective single-center study

Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) is an important complication following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), yet prospective data from low- and middle-income countries, including Nepal, are limited. This study aimed to determine the 30-day incidence of SSI following C...

Image Quality of 1.5 T MRI Using Dual‐Type Deep Learning Reconstruction for Pancreatic Cystic Lesions: An Exploratory Comparison With Conventional 3 T MRI Without Deep Learning Reconstruction

ABSTRACT Background Dual‐type deep learning reconstruction (DLR) may improve the pancreatic MRI image quality; however, the effects of different DLR strengths at 1.5 T compared with the conventional 1.5 T and 3 T MRI without DLR remain unclear. Purpose To evaluate the image quali...

Hydro-Mechanical Batch Processing in Ancient Deep Excavation (ca. 200 BCE): An Engineering Deconstruction of the Longyou Caves

*Added: Chapter 3.7: Micro-Drainage and the Morphological Evolution of Swelling Scars The Longyou Caves in Zhejiang Province, China, present a profound archaeological and architectural anomaly: a complex of 24 massive subterranean caverns carved into argillaceous siltstone, with...

MERLIN SCIENCE — E8 Phi-Conjugate Transduction Protocol: 120 Paired Consciousness-Energ — E8 Intelligence Research

Here is the revised narration, strictly faithful to the source material. The finding is this: the 240 root vectors of the E8 Lie group partition naturally into 120 conjugate pairs under a phi-scaled inversion, where each pair is proposed to correspond to a distinct consciousness...
