Highly oxidized products from the atmospheric reaction of hydroxyl radicals with toluene
Abstract Simple aromatics, largely toluene (C 7 H 8 ) and benzene (C 6 H 6 ), are emitted into Earth´s atmosphere by different sources. Their degradation initiated by the gas-phase reaction with hydroxyl radicals (OH) forms mainly bicyclic peroxy radicals (BCP) besides phenol-typ...

Disturbance observer-based predefined-time sliding mode attitude control for rigid spacecraft
This paper investigates the predefined-time attitude stabilization control of rigid spacecraft under external disturbances. A predefined-time stability criterion is established using a bounded function. A continuous predefined-time disturbance observer is designed to handle unkno...

Reactionary aesthetics and the politics of dark femininity
In recent years, feminist politics have faced a renewed reactionary backlash. Drawing on Jilly Boyce Kay's articulation of the ‘femosphere’ and Asa Seresin's ‘heteropessimism’ as key theoretical frameworks, we explore how women in the femosphere advance reactionary politics by pr...
