A [3]Rotaxane Containing {Ti7Ga} Rings Linking CuII: Synthesis, Structure, and Spectroscopic Studies
Extended hybrid inorganic‐organic [2]‐ and [3]‐rotaxanes are reported based on heterometallic rings with threads that link CuII complexes; the crystal structures are reported, and the solution behavior is investigated by double electron electron resonance spectroscopy methods.

A Novel Heterometallic Ring {Cr5Ni3} and New {Cr6Co2} and {Cr6Zn2} Rings
A novel heterometallic ring containing five Cr(III) and three Ni(II) centers is reported. It forms an octagon and has a single isomer, as revealed by a combination of magnetic and EPR studies and collision‐induced dissociation mass spectrometry. ABSTRACT A new heterometallic ring, [Me4N][(Me4N)2Cr5Ni3F8(BTFB)16] (BTFB = 3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)benzoate)

ABSTRACT Objective Self‐reported frequency measures of social media use (e.g., “How often do you use social media?”) are convenient, yet their criterion validity against objective behavioral data remains largely untested in eating disorder research. We compared self‐reports of TikTok use with objective data extracted from TikTok datafiles.

Divine Action in the World of Physics: Response to Nicholas Saunders
Nicholas Saunders claims that, in my view, divine action requires and is confined to indeterminacies at the quantum level. I try to make clear that, in speaking of “gaps” in physical causality, I mean that the existence of intentions entails that ...

CD11b+ lung dendritic cells at different stages of maturation induce Th17 or Th2 differentiation
Dendritic cells in the lung may be specialised to mediate specific types of immune function. Here the authors show that subpopulations of mouse CD11b+ lung DC at different stages of maturation and phenotype can promote Th17 or Th2 CD4+ T cell ...
