Genomic Diversity, Phylogenetic Structure, and In Silico Diagnostic Primer Compatibility of Available DENV-1 Genotype V from Mexico

Background: Dengue virus serotype 1 (DENV-1) is prevalent across the Americas, yet its genomic diversity in Mexico is poorly characterized. Methods: We analyzed 119 public Mexican DENV-1 genomes (polyprotein CDS, 10,179 nt) alongside 111 from 19 other American countries and terri...

Emzing: A Deep Learning-Enabled Software Suite for End-to-End Analysis of High-Resolution LC-MS Metabolomics Data

Abstract High-resolution LC-MS-based metabolomics requires transforming noise-dominated raw data into quantitative feature tables and, ultimately, biologically meaningful insights. In practice, this process is fragmented across multiple tools and involves extensive parameter tuni...

Synergistic effects of climatic drivers and anthropogenic land degradation on cascading geomorphic hazards in Iran

The core RUSLE model implementation in this repository was originally developed by Nicolás Riveras Muñoz and is available at: https://github.com/nriveras/RUSLE. It was used for data analysis in the manuscript Synergistic effects of climate forcing and anthropogenic land degradati...

Symbiosis on Acid

This article examines the relationship between Gaian ecology and psychedelic experience in the fiction of Ursula K. Le Guin and the work of ethnobotanist and psychonaut Terence McKenna. Both authors use psychedelics to open perspectives on symbiosis as a model for more equitable...

Sums of products of Kloosterman sums to prime power moduli

Abstract We prove new bounds on complete sums of products of $$k$$ k additively shifted Kloosterman sums to odd high prime power moduli $$q=p^n$$ q = p n , which feature substantially stronger power savings (about $$q^{-1/\lceil k/2\rceil}$$ q - 1 / ⌈ k / 2 ⌉ in generic configura...

Fluency and elaboration in dolphin object play: evidence for creativity in behavioral exchanges?

Innovative behaviors in non-human animals have been proposed as indicators of flexible thinking. Although dolphins have demonstrated creativity under stimulus control, these paradigms relied on human-directed tasks and may have overlooked spontaneous expression. This study evalua...

Consumer Valuation of AR-Enabled Indoor Navigation in Shopping Malls: A Choice-Based Conjoint Analysis

Augmented reality (AR) indoor navigation can combine wayfinding, information, gamification, and promotions in shopping malls, but how consumers value these features is unclear. In a choice-based conjoint experiment, 295 South Korean adults aged 20–49 from an online panel chose am...

Charging of a Quantum Battery by a Two-Photon Quantum Pulse

We investigate the charging of a harmonic-oscillator quantum battery by a propagating two-photon quantum pulse coupled through a two-level-system charger. Excitation-number conservation reduces the dynamics to a sequential response of the first and second excitation sectors, whos...

Vertical Excitation Energies in Solution via a Two-Time-Scale Solvation Model Coupled to Pair-Density Functional Theory

Abstract Calculations of many electronically excited states in solution require both a multiconfigurational treatment of the solute and an efficient treatment of solvent effects. Multiconfiguration pair-density functional theory (MC-PDFT) and its multistate, linearized extension...

Evaluating OpenMP Offloading for Intra-Node Multi-GPU Programming Across NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel Architectures: A 3D Heat Transfer Case Study

Currently, many of the leading supercomputers are equipped with GPUs from manufacturers such as NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel, which provide substantial parallelism and high throughput. It is common for a single compute node to host multiple GPUs (typically four or more); we refer to thi...

Mapping the Molecular Universe

Abstract The success of large-language-models highlighted the importance of datasets, whose quantity, quality, and diversity dictate the accuracy and creativity of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in learning and inferring. However, in scientific domains, such datasets requir...

Holographic multipartite entanglement dynamics in AdS3-Vaidya

A bstract We study how multipartite entanglement is dynamically reorganized during holographic thermalization following a global quench in AdS 3 /CFT 2 . We first use the n -partite information (− 1) n I n to probe collective multipartite entanglement in holographic configuration...

GeoPhysAdapter: Scale-matched geophysical adaptation for cross-domain landslide mapping with vision foundation models

Newly triggered landslides rarely carry immediate annotations, so cross-domain transferability determines the value of landslide mapping for emergency response and regional risk assessment. Vision foundation models have strengthened representational transfer, yet on unseen region...

A trans-therapeutic signature of recovery in internet gaming disorder: From shared network reorganization to molecular underpinnings.

Background and aims: A variety of self-regulation interventions have shown efficacy in treating Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD), but their shared and unique neurobiological mechanisms remain unclear. This study aims to identify a common, trans-therapeutic neural signature of recov...

Warm-sector heavy rainfall over the eastern China plains: identification, characteristics, and precursor dynamic signals

Abstract. Warm-sector heavy rainfall (WSHR) features small spatial scales, posing critical forecast challenges, while its fractional contribution to regional heavy rainfall and its short-term precursors remain poorly quantified. Drawing on 2021–2025 warm-season (June–September) o...

Multidisciplinary insights into Late Pleistocene-Holocene palaeoenvironment at the archaeo-palaeontological Loltún Cave site in Yucatán, Mexico

Abstract A lack of well-dated archaeological and palaeontological sequences containing proxy-based palaeoenvironmental information has hindered the reconstruction of long-term human-biodiversity interactions in Mexico. Here, we re-evaluate the stratigraphy of the Huechil Chamber...

The Longitudinal Association Between Disability and Loneliness Among Older Adults in China: An Urban–Rural Comparative Analysis

Loneliness is a major mental health concern among older adults and has been increasingly linked to functional decline in later life. This study aimed to inform targeted care strategies by exploring urban–rural differences in the longitudinal association between disability and lon...

Empowering Drivers as Collaborative Social Agents: Enhancing Pedestrian Interaction through Cooperative Interfaces in Autonomous Vehicle Systems

While autonomous driving technology reduces the operational burden on drivers, it may also diminish their sense of engagement, for example, by interrupting social interactions between drivers and other road users such as pedestrians. To address this, this article proposes a “Soci...

Nonclassical condensation pathways revealed by the multivariable theory of nucleation

Classical nucleation theory (CNT) provides a simple conceptual framework for nucleation but often fails to quantitatively reproduce experimental and numerical observations. In this work, we extend the theory by explicitly incorporating the multidimensional nature of nucleation an...

Using large language models to probe the limits of atom-centered structural descriptors

Mapping an atomic structure to a compact set of geometric descriptors is an essential step in any machine-learning application to atomic-scale modeling. A powerful and widely used approach can be understood as a discretization of the histogram of pair distances, triangles, etc.,...
