Beginning with the spiritual life by Wynn, MR

“…In this chapter, the authors consider how they might approach some issues in the philosophy of religion by beginning with the spiritual life. They then seek to understand certain recurrent features of the spiritual life: for instance, the fact that spiritual understanding and practice typically seem to have a traditioned character. …”

Vitrimer-like shape memory polymers : characterization and applications in reshaping and manufacturing by Wang, Tao Xi, Chen, Hong Mei, Salvekar, Abhijit Vijay, Lim, Junyi, Chen, Yahui, Xiao, Rui, Huang, Wei Min

“…Vitrimer, which is between thermoset and thermo-plastic, is featured by the reversible cross-linking. Vitrimer-like shape memory polymers (SMPs) combine the vitrimer-like behavior (associated with dissociative covalent adaptable networks) and SME, and can be utilized to achieve many novel functions that are difficult to be realized by conventional polymers. …”

Regulation and function of innate-like T cells by Hagel, JP

“…It is expressed by NK- and T-cell subsets, particularly by innate-like T cells such as MAIT and γδT cells. CD161-expressing T-cell subsets share a transcriptional and functional phenotype, including the ability to be activated by cytokines in a T-cell receptor-independent manner, similar to NK cells. …”

A conformal transformation approach to wide-angle illusion device and absorber by Huang, Yao, Zhang, Youming, Zhang, Jingjing, Liu, Dongjue, Wang, Qijie, Zhang, Baile, Luo, Yu

“…We theoretically investigate the illusion device designed by a conformal transformation that can render an elliptic defect behave like a flat mirror. Different from illusion devices consisting of the complementary medium and anti-object with negative permittivity and permeability, our proposed illusion device requires only isotropic positive permittivity medium. …”
