Theatre of the street : subverting otherness in photography. by Rr Apriani Kartika Dristiningsih.

“…While their intentions may be to highlight the plight of the marginalised Other, implicit in the act of photography is placing the photographed subjects under the authorial directions of the photographer. The paradox is then clear: in placing light and bestowing visibility to these subjects through the photographic technique, the photographer is sustaining their invisibility precisely because they are stripped of their ability to assert their own identity in the face of the enigmatic lens. …”

Anisotropy of the zigzag order in the Kitaev honeycomb magnet α-RuBr3 by Pearce, JS, Kaib, DAS, Ma, Z, Ni, D, Cava, RJ, Valenti, R, Coldea, R, Coldea, AI

“…The torque for field rotated in the honeycomb plane has a clear six-fold periodicity with a saw-tooth shape, reflecting the three-fold symmetry of the crystal structure and stabilization of different zigzag domains depending on the field orientation, with a torque amplitude that follows an order parameter form inside the zigzag phase. …”

Complexity of Proto-Elamite administration system: insights from compositional data from sealings and tablets by Yeganeh, SJ, Holakooei, P, Nokandeh, J, Piran, S, Dahl, J

“…The relative error (RE%) and the expanded uncertainty (UΔ) accounted for the hXRF quantitative data acquired from six certified reference materials (CRMs) showed the hXRF data was accurate and the standard deviation (σ) of the measurements performed on the CRMs and relative standard deviation (RSD) accounted for the measurements performed on the clay materials showed that the hXRF data are precise enough to have a clear picture about the compositional diversity within the objects under study in terms of major and minor elements. …”

Clinical, genetic and omics-based biomarkers that might support the identification of the development of psoriatic arthritis in individuals with psoriasis – a narrative review of t... by Grohmann, T, Vivekanantham, A, Coates, L, Pennington, S, FitzGerald, O

Wide-bandgap perovskite-inspired materials: defect-driven challenges for high-performance optoelectronics by Grandhi, GK, Hardy, D, Krishnaiah, M, Vargas, B, Al-Anesi, B, Suryawanshi, MP, Solis-Ibarra, D, Gao, F, Hoye, RH, Vivo, P

“…The remarkable success of lead halide perovskites (LHPs) in photovoltaics and other optoelectronics is significantly linked to their defect tolerance, although this correlation remains not fully clear. The tendency of LHPs to decompose into toxic lead-containing compounds in the presence of humid air calls for the need of low-toxicity LHP alternatives comprising of cations with stable oxidation states. …”
