**FINDING:** Undecidability extends to quantum measurement occurrence and separability, revealing a deeper computational limit than classical analogues. **MATH:** No explicit equations or constants derived; core result is that the decision problem "Does a given quantum circuit pr...
- Materials & EnergyOpen access
The transportation sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, driving the need for low-carbon energy solutions. Hydrogen is increasingly recognised as a promising option for decarbonising heavy-duty and long-distance transport; however, hydrogen storage sys...

Supply Chain Resilience and Total Factor Productivity: Evidence from Listed Manufacturing Firms
Background: Manufacturing productivity increasingly depends on reliable interorganizational flows, yet supply chain disruptions can interrupt materials, information, finance, and efficient use of productive inputs. Although supply chain resilience is widely treated as a continuit...

Interrogating Learner Progression Policy in South African Schools Through Teachers’ Perspectives
Learner progression policy in South Africa is intended to promote inclusive education by reducing grade repetition and preventing learner dropout, yet its implementation remains contested, particularly in under-resourced schooling contexts. Drawing on teacher agency and socio-eco...

{167--83. \\Spectral Structure and Zeros of the Symmetrized Difference Function $I(s)$}
The central object of this paper is the symmetrized difference function: I(s) = zeta(s)/s - zeta(1-s)/(1-s) initially defined for Re(s) in (0,1). Our approach consists in: Constructing I(s), that is, deriving it from a single foundational integral representation (Riemann's formul...

Embodied artificial intelligence is commonly evaluated by what it can perceive, plan, and do. Human-robot interaction research, however, increasingly shows that capability is not sufficient: an agent must also determine when action would interrupt a human, when assistance can be...

Measuring masses of transiting Earth-like planets: first insights from the PLATO RV Data Challenge
Abstract The PLATO Stellar Variability Mitigation Working Group designed a radial-velocity (RV) data challenge to assess the precision and accuracy achievable on RV semi-amplitudes in the context of the future PLATO follow-up. Using Sun-as-a-star observations obtained with HARPS-...

Modeling driver cognitive states for shared-control vehicles in intelligent transportation systems
This study aims to model driver cognitive states for shared-control vehicles operating within intelligent transportation systems. We introduce driving activity level as an interpretable state variable that combines attention allocation, steering behavior, and perceived situationa...

The efficiency–verification trade-off in large language model-assisted workplace risk assessment
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly adopted in occupational health and safety (OHS) to accelerate workplace risk assessment, yet their integration raises a dilemma between efficiency and verification. The study examines this trade-off in an LLM-assisted workflow using d...

Geochemistry of Methane and Sulfide Sulfur in the Bottom Sediments of Small Lakes in Southern Russia
Small lakes are widespread, yet their biogeochemistry, particularly regarding greenhouse gases, remains insufficiently studied. This article presents the findings from an investigation of six small lakes in the Southern European part of Russia, conducted from September to October...

The True Cost of Care: A Team-Based Learning Example
Abstract Veterinary medicine is increasingly shaped by environmental change, social inequities, and economic pressures that influence animal health, access to care, and professional practice. Preparing graduates to respond to these challenges requires educational strategies that...

Universal Spectrum and Edge-Crowding Transitions for Discrete Difference Operators
This preprint studies the discrete Euler map E a = a + V((x−ζ)a) built from theLagrange difference operator (Va)_i = Σ_{j≠i} (a_i − a_j)/(x_i − x_j) on m distinctreal nodes. The spectrum of the induced operator on the quotient by constants isuniversal — always {1, …, m−1}, indepe...
