Article on first-principles analysis of electron-phonon interactions in graphene.

This article identifies a sample of 74 high-redshift quasars with weak emission lines from the Fifth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and present infrared, optical, and radio observations of a subsample of four objects at z > 4.

Article discussing comparative trace elemental analysis in cancerous and noncancerous human tissues using PIXE.

This article reviews comparative trace elemental concentrations of cancerous and noncancerous tissues using PIXE.

Article studying chemical and electronic properties of ion beam synthesized Fe-Si binary structures using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy binding energy analysis.

This article discusses complex materials for molecular spintronics applications.

This article elaborates on a discussion of the emergence of intelligence via criticality as a consequence of locality breakdown, by using criticality for the foundation of a novel generation of game theory making the local interaction between players yield long-range effects.

This article discusses cooperation-induced topological complexity and the emergence of intelligence.

Authors of the article present a suite of high-resolution simulations of an isolated dwarf galaxy using four different hydrodynamical codes: Gizmo, Arepo, Gadget, and Ramses. They find reasonable agreement on the time-averaged star formation rates as well as the joint density–temperature distributions between all codes.

This article reviews approaches for improvement of tribological properties of polymers based on inclusion of fillers.

Patent relating to an apparatus and method for inducing electrical property changes in carbon nanotubes.

The article presents one scheme for what is referred to as magnetic plasma expulsion, which would prevent the plasma from entering a given region. Magnetic plasma expulsion techniques may allow instrumentation access to the interiors of plasmas. Magnetic plasma expulsion techniques may also make alternative approaches for magnetic plasma confinement possible. Particle-in-cell simulation with the Warp code is used to study magnetic plasma expulsion. Some conditions for achieving magnetic plasma expulsion are reported.

Article states that to bolster the series of Brief Guides released by International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, the authors introduce the first Brief Guide to Polymer Characterization. This article provides a concise overview of characterization methods for teachers, students, non-specialists, and newcomers to polymer science as well as being a useful manual for researchers and technicians.
