The refractive index of a single atom experienced by a single photon
Article describes how the refractive index of a system is often viewed as the collective response of a medium to an electromagnetic field. By studying the propagation of a single photon interacting with a two-level atom, the authors examine the dispersion behavior, calculate the phase and group velocity of the photon wave packet, and further analyze the dispersion experienced by the photon.

Estimating Hausdorff measure for Denjoy maps
Article describes how the authors plant to deal with orientation preserving homeomorphisms and, more specifically, diffeomorphisms of the unit circle S1. By employing the recurrence method worked out in Pawelec the authors provide effective lower estimates of the proper-dimensional Hausdorff measure of minimal sets of circle homeomorphisms that are not conjugate to any rotation.

ARKENSTONE – I. A novel method for robustly capturing high specific energy outflows in cosmological simulations
Article describes how ARKENSTONE is a new model for multiphase, stellar feedback-driven galactic winds designed for inclusion in coarse resolution cosmological simulations. In this first paper of a series, the authors describe the features that allow ARKENSTONE to properly treat high specific energy wind components and demonstrate them using idealized non-cosmological simulations of a galaxy with a realistic circumgalactic medium (CGM) using the AREPO code.

Benchmarking Metagenomic Classifiers on Simulated Ancient and Modern Metagenomic Data
Article describes how taxonomic profiling of ancient metagenomic samples is challenging due to the accumulation of specific damage patterns on DNA over time. The authors performed a comprehensive evaluation on simulated metagenomes representing human dental calculus microbiome, with the level of DNA damage successively raised to mimic modern to ancient metagenomes.

Identification of Novel Antimicrobial Resistance Genes Using Machine Learning, Homology Modeling, and Molecular Docking
Article claims antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens the healthcare system worldwide with the rise of emerging drug resistant infectious agents. To infer novel resistance genes, we used complete gene sets of several bacterial strains known to be susceptible or resistant to specific drugs and associated phenotypic information within a machine learning framework that enabled prioritizing genes potentially involved in resistance.

Optical in-situ measurements and modeling of post-flame sulfation of NaOH(g) and NaCl(g)
Article describes post-flame sulfation of gaseous sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium chloride (NaCl) was investigated with optical in situ measurements at 850 to 1475°C. The combined experimental data, chemical equilibrium calculations and kinetic modeling of the present study support that sulfation of alkali species can occur in the gas phase through homogeneous reactions.

Tuning the decay of sound in a viscous metamaterial
Authors of the article use analytical results for viscous dissipation in phononic crystals to calculate the decay coefficient of a sound wave propagating at low frequencies through a two-dimensional phononic crystal with a viscous fluid background. They claim that the decay coefficient exhibits dependence on the direction of propagation; that is, a homogenized phononic crystal behaves like an anisotropic viscous fluid.

Corrosion Inhibition Effect of Pyridine-2-Thiol for Brass in An Acidic Environment
Article states that the inhibitive performance of pyridine-2-thiol added to a corrosive solution was investigated for brass using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy showed defect free and less scale formation for the inhibited surface but the bare brass surface had larger amounts of scale formation. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy was used to investigate surface chemical composition and inhibitor structural changes over time.
