Reframing reflexivity: collaborative ethics, collective responsibility, and learnings from researching Russia’s war on Ukraine by Howlett, M, Kurylo, B

“…Ukraine’s resistance against Russia’s aggression has particularly brought to light previously excluded political and academic subjectivities, underscoring the need for a reframing of reflexivity that challenges the dominance of Russian- and Western-centric perspectives in analyses of the region. This paper accordingly contends that reflexivity should be approached as a collaborative practice grounded in the ethic of reciprocity and collective epistemic responsibility, rather than simply a process of personal introspection. …”

High transparency Pr:Y₂O₃ ceramics: a promising gain medium for red emission solid-state lasers by Li, Qing, Wang, Ying, Wang, Jun, Ma, Jie, Ni, Meng, Lin, Hui, Zhang, Jian, Liu, Peng, Xu, Xiaodong, Tang, Dingyuan

“…It was also found that the charge states of the Pr ions could be changed through regulating the annealing atmospheres, resulting in different absorption and emission characteristics in the visible wavelength region. Annealing in reducing atmosphere (5% H2/95% Ar) favored the formation of Pr3+, resulting in stronger red emissions, while annealing in oxygen atmosphere led to the rise of lattice constant due to the concentration increase of oxygen interstitials. …”
