Measuring racial attitudes pre-treatment in survey experiments
Abstract Experimental researchers often need to assess the moderating effect of racial attitudes. However, it is unclear whether the racial attitude battery deployed may bias treatment effects. Less subtle batteries could bias treatment effects toward zero if measuring racial att...

In this work, we fabricated dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs) functionalized with amino acids (leucine, serine, and ornithine) for removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. Structural characterization showed mesoporous architecture, with TEM showing a...

A Tert ‐Alkyl Terephthalate Derivative as a Universal Degradable Unit for Condensation Polymers
ABSTRACT Incorporating cleavable triggers into the backbones of parent polymers enables programmed degradation, offering a pathway to chemically recyclable plastics. Although various triggers have been reported to date, simple esters bearing a C─O bond cleavable by photocatalytic...

Abstract Existing hyperchaotic medical image encryption schemes derive all chaotic initial conditions solely from statistical features of deep-learning-segmented anatomical regions, creating a structural chosen-plaintext-attack (CPA) vulnerability: images with similar segmentatio...

Chemical Characterization and Bioactive Profile of a Selection of 45 Rapini Populations
The present study evaluated the chemical profiles and bioactivities of 45 rapini (Brassica rapa L.) populations (RA1-RA45) cultivated in Central Greece. Our results suggest that the tested rapini populations differed in their compositional traits, with coefficients of variation (...

Capital and race: the history of a modern hydra
Capital and Race opens with an interrupted conversation. Martin Luther King, Sylvie Laurent reminds us, insisted that the racial question could not be posed without considering capitalism, and was ...

Phonon thermal Hall effect in quartz and its absence in silica
The observation of a misalignment between the applied heat flux and the measured temperature gradient in insulating solids induced by magnetic field has become a subject of experimental investigation, theoretical speculation, and unsettled controversy. To identify the origin of t...

Numerical Simulation of Droplet Impact, Spreading and Penetration onto Curved Porous Media
Droplet impact on curved porous media involves coupled spreading, wrapping, recoiling, and penetration. A three-dimensional level set model was developed in COMSOL and validated using high-speed imaging experiments to quantify axial and circumferential spreading lengths, central...

Wood Properties: Measurement, Modeling, and Future Needs
Wood science has long been shaped by a fundamental challenge: the properties that determine material performance are intrinsically heterogeneous, anisotropic, scale-dependent, and sensitive to environmental and processing conditions [...]
