A matrix model for strings beyond the c=1 barrier: the spin-s Heisenberg model on random surfaces
We consider a spin-s Heisenberg model coupled to two-dimensional quantum gravity. We quantize the model using the Feynman path integral, summing over all possible two-dimensional geometries and spin configurations.

The ultrahard teeth of mollusks that feed on rocky substrates contain a wear‐resistant coating on their surfaces consisting of densely packed mesocrystalline magnetic nanoparticles within an organic matrix. These coatings display significant hardness and toughness through their highly controlled mesocrystalline architectures.

One-loop corrections for Schwarzschild black hole via 2D dilaton gravity
We study quantum corrections for the Schwarzshild black hole by considering it as a vacuum solution of a 2D dilaton gravity theory obtained by spherical reduction of 4D gravity coupled with matter.

Porous carbon host materials are investigated for their possible usage in liquid alkali‐metal negative electrodes. X‐ray computed tomography reveals pore‐filling behavior under various conditions: non‐wetting, forced wetting, and spontaneous wetting. The applicability of porous carbon in electrochemical cells is demonstrated at high areal capacities ...

Euclidian 2D Gravity with Torsion
Closing a gap in the literature on the subject, the local solutions of 2D-gravity with torsion are given for Euclidian signature. For the topology of a cylinder the system is quantized.

Boundary operators in 2D gravity
Abstract We study boundary operators (open string vertices) in two-dimensional gravity and identify them as redundant operators in the matrix model. In the ( p , q ) minimal model coupled to 2D gravity there is always one relevant boundary operator, which measures the Z 2 -odd or Z 2 -even boundary length depending on whether q is odd ...

We characterized the distribution of cargo proteins associated with extracellular vesicles using various exogenous loading methods. In all cases, single‐particle analysis revealed that the distribution of protein content per EV is heterogeneous, following an exponential decay function.

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

Gravity duals of 2d supersymmetric gauge theories
We find new supergravity solutions generated by D5-branes wrapping a four-cycle and preserving four and two supersymmetries. We first consider the configuration in which the fivebranes wrap a four-cycle in a Calabi-Yau threefold, which preserves four ...

Bone fracture healing is a complex, timely orchestrated scenario involving multiple cell types and a plethora of cytokines and regulatory factors. To gain further insight, an in vitro model to a) study macrophage polarization under mechanical load in a fibrin hydrogel and b) subsequently assess the effect of conditioned media derived from macrophages ...
