Quantum Maxwell's demon assisted by non-Markovian effects by Poulsen, Kasper, Majland, Marco, Lloyd, Seth, Kjaergaard, Morten, Zinner, Nikolaj T

“…So far, implementations of Maxwell's demon have largely been limited to Markovian baths. In our work, we study the degree to which such a demon may be assisted by non-Markovian effects using a superconducting circuit platform. …”

Improving Attention Using Wearables via Haptic and Multimodal Rhythmic Stimuli by Whitmore, Nathan W, Chan, Samantha, Zhang, Jingru, Chwalek, Patrick, Chin, Sam, Maes, Pattie

“…However, the effects and user experience of using wearables for inducing such rhythmic stimuli have been under-investigated. We conducted a study with 20 participants to understand the effects of rhythmic stimulation wearables on attention. …”

To What Extent Do Alternative Energy Sources Displace Coal and Oil in Electricity Generation? A Mean-Group Panel Analysis by Liddle, Brantley

“…As such, our approach avoids/addresses several statistical issues common in long-macro panel analyses—heterogeneity, nonstationarity, and cross-sectional dependence—that have largely been ignored/unaddressed in previous displacement studies. …”

An organometallic swap strategy for bottlebrush polymer-protein conjugate synthesis by Liu, Bin, Rodriguez, Jacob, Kilgallon, Landon J., Wang, Wencong, Wang, Yuyan, Wang, Aiden, Dai, Yutong, Nguyen, Hung V.-T., Pentelute, Bradley L., Johnson, Jeremiah A.

“…Polymer–protein bioconjugation offers a powerful strategy to alter the physical properties of proteins, and various synthetic polymer compositions and architectures have been investigated for this purpose. Nevertheless, conjugation of molecular bottlebrush polymers (BPs) to proteins remains an unsolved challenge due to the large size of BPs and a general lack of methods to transform the chain ends of BPs into functional groups suitable for bioconjugation. …”

Contextual Predictability and Phonetic Reduction by Martin, Kinan R.

“…However, the nature of how the context direction and size governs phonetic reduction has not been thoroughly explored. The advancement of self-supervised language models provides a means to assign meaningful estimates of word predictability conditioned on different contexts. …”

Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coasts by Palermo, Rose V, Ashton, Andrew D, Soderblom, Jason M, Birch, Samuel PD, Hayes, Alexander G, Perron, J Taylor

“…Applying this framework to Titan, we find that the shorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded by waves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates at fetch lengths of tens of kilometers.…”

Characterizing the Impact of Oligomerization on Redox Flow Cell Performance by Weiss, Trent A, Fan, Gang, Neyhouse, Bertrand J, Moore, Evan B, Furst, Ariel, Brushett, Fikile R

“…Redox‐active oligomers (RAOs) have recently been proposed for mitigating this phenomenon while maintaining sufficient transport properties; however, to date, few studies have quantified how the chemical and electrochemical properties of RAOs influence their performance in redox flow cells. …”

US federal resource allocations are inconsistent with concentrations of energy poverty by Batlle, Carlos, Heller, Peter, Knittel, Christopher, Schittekatte, Tim

“…Federal assistance programs exist, but allocations across states have been nearly static since 1984, while the distribution of energy poverty is dynamic in location and time. …”

Post-polymerisation modification of surface chemical functionality and its effect on protein binding by Choong, Cleo Swee Neo, Griffiths, Jon-Paul, Luo, Baiwen, Bora, Meghali, Foord, J. S., Parker, Emily M., Moloney, Mark G.

“…Protein binding experiments with bovine serum albumin demonstrate that protein adhesion is dependent upon the identity of the surface chemical group, with tert-butyl, hexyl, dimethylamino, amino, and carboxyl modified systems all exhibiting higher levels of binding, while glycol, hydroxyl, and phosphonate give similar or lower levels of binding, relative to the control. This behaviour has been shown to be time dependent, and an approximate trend of protein binding with cheminformatic descriptors %PSA and contact angle was observed.…”
