Code Comparison in Galaxy-scale Simulations with Resolved Supernova Feedback: Lagrangian versus Eulerian Methods

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.

A brief guide to polymer characterization: structure (IUPAC Technical Report)

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.

Dementia and COVID-19 among Older African American Adults: A Scoping Review of Healthcare Access and Resources

Article discusses how African American/Black communities comprise 12.2% of the U.S. population, with a COVID-19 infection rate of more than 18% and marginal access to healthcare services. This scoping review synthesizes the emerging evidence on healthcare accessibility among older African American adult communities with dementia and COVID-19, as well as the resource requirements for this population during the pandemic.
