Towards the understanding of heavy quarks hadronization: from leptonic to heavy-ion collisions by Altmann, J, Dubla, A, Greco, V, Rossi, A, Skands, P

“…The formation of hadrons is a fundamental process in nature that can be investigated at particle colliders. As several recent findings demonstrate, with e+e- collisions as a “vacuum-like” reference at one extreme, and central nucleus–nucleus as a dense, extended size system characterized by flow and local equilibrium at the opposite extreme, different collision systems offer a lever arm that can be exploited to probe with a range of heavy-flavour hadron species the onset of various hadronization processes. …”

Populist attitudes, subjective social status, and resentment in Italy by Melli, G, Scherer, S

“…Thus, using original data collected in 2021, this paper analyses populist attitudes in Italy and the relationship between subjective social status, status mismatch, and social resentment. This study finds that subjective status matters more than objective conditions for populist attitudes. …”

Strong and weak random walks on signed networks by Babul, SA, Tian, Y, Lambiotte, R

“…Comparing strong and weak walks on synthetic and empirical networks, we demonstrate that weak walks outperform strong walks in scenarios involving more than two communities or asymmetric link densities. Our findings suggest that replacing strong walks with weak walks could enhance other signed network random-walk algorithms, broadening their applicability to more realistic network structures.…”

Aged and wheeled mobility in transit-oriented development: the capabilities approach by Xu, Y, Chan, H-Y, Chen, A, Chim, T-Y, Liu, X

“…Our focus is on understanding these conversion factors, which highlight both environmental and individual constraints when converting resources into capabilities. Our findings reveal significant disparities in walking environments between the initially planned and the realized catchment areas, as well as disparities between individuals with and without physical limitations. …”

A manifesto for a globally diverse, equitable, and inclusive open science by Ghai, S, Thériault, R, Forscher, P, Shoda, Y, Syed, M, Puthillam, A, Peng, HC, Basnight-Brown, D, Majid, A, Azevedo, F, Singh, L

“…In this Perspective, we raise the spectre of Questionable Generalisability Practices and the issue of MASKing (Making Assumptions based on Skewed Knowledge), calling for more responsible practices in generalising study findings and co-authorship to promote global equity in knowledge production. …”

How coalitions shape legislative institutions in parliamentary democracies by Zubek, R

“…Procedural opportunities to use legislative committees to challenge ministerial proposals tend to be strengthened under multi-party cabinets in which preference divergence between coalition partners is substantial and in which parties have similar probability of making proposals to implement joint policies. These findings open interesting avenues for future work on how parties shape legislative institutions in parliamentary democracies.…”

Longitudinal effects of a scenario-based learning intervention on preservice teacher self-efficacy by Rushby, JV, Klassen, RM, Durksen, TL, Pfaffel, A, Bardach, L

“…Results from open-ended responses following the intervention showed how reflection on scenarios and feedback played a role in preservice teachers’ self-efficacy. The findings highlight the benefits of providing preservice teachers with low-risk, authentic classroom experiences bolstered by expert feedback and opportunities for reflection.…”

Testing the national identity argument by Miller, D, Ali, S

“…Using case studies from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, we suggest that the relationship between national identity and social justice varies between societies, and that a key factor is finding an appropriate balance between the strength of such identities and their inclusiveness.…”

Mental contrasting changes the meaning of reality by Kappes, A, Wendt, M, Reinelt, T, Oettingen, G

“…Importantly, the meaning of reality as obstacle mediated mental contrasting effects on goal pursuit (Studies 1, 2). The findings suggest that mental contrasting produces selective goal pursuit by changing the meaning of a person's reality.…”

Function and regulation of the ADP-ribosylhydrolase TARG1 by Groslambert, J

“…Moreover, I sought to translate the prior <em>in vitro</em> findings to a more physiological context by directly investigating TARG1’s glutamate/aspartate-linked ADPr reversal activity in cells. …”

The Viking Great Army north of the Tyne: A Viking camp in Northumberland? by Kershaw, J, Jarman, C, Weber, H, Horton, M

“…This paper introduces the site, its topography and small finds and details the results from initial geophysics and lidar surveys. …”

The effects of fasting on acute ischemic infarcts in the rat by Schneider, AM, Buchan, AM, Couch, Y

“…After 24 hours, fasting was found to reduce infarct volume and BBB breakdown, and lower both circulating and brain neutrophils. These findings suggest that fasting may be a beneficial non-pharmacological additive therapeutic option for cerebral ischemia, potentially by reducing inflammation in the acute stage of the disease.…”

Parameterization of nice polynomials by Anton, Hozjee

“…This research concentrates on finding parameterized families of symmetric polynomial with four, five, and seven roots. …”

Evaluating the effect of students' behavioural intention to use social media for collaborative learning by Nur Shamsiah, Abdul Rahman, Noor Azida, Sahabudin

“…The Structural Equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the model fit and corresponding hypotheses. The findings indicated that students’ attitudes and behaviour are strong indicators of their intentions to use social media for collaborative learning.…”

Towards graphane applications in security: the electrochemical detection of trinitrotoluene in seawater on hydrogenated graphene by Seah, Tzu Hui, Poh, Hwee Ling, Chua, Chun Kiang, Sofer, Zdeněk, Pumera, Martin

“…This is likely due to the fact that graphene contains a larger amount of aromatic rings than hydrogenated graphene, enabling larger preconcentration. These finding are of high importance to the application of graphene-based materials for explosives detection.…”
