Summertime and the drivin’ is easy? Daylight Saving Time and vehicle accidents. LEQS Paper No. 150/2019 December 2019 [PDF]
, 2019 Although it is commonly understood that light conditions affect driving behaviour, detailed evidence is scarce especially for EU countries. In this paper we use the exogenous variation in daylight caused by Daylight Saving Time (DST) shifts to examine ...

Thermochromic Gires‐Tournois Resonators with Tellurium for Battery Thermal Runaway Warning
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A thermochromic Gires‐Tournois (GT) resonator with a thin tellurium layer enables rapid, reversible, and untethered detection of battery surface temperature <80 °C. Exploiting tellurium's refractive index change driven by a thermally induced phase transition between solid and quasi‐liquid states, the GT resonator visualizes heat propagation, providing ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Large‐area N‐doped amorphous carbon films are synthesized at room temperature via hybrid linear ion source technique. Nitrogen doping promotes the formation of sp2−C and C‐N bonds, thus enhancing the electrode's sensitivity. These electrodes achieve ultra‐low Cu2+ detection (8 × 10−3 mM) in 3.5 wt% NaCl and exhibit excellent stability/repeatability for

Recessions Are Bad for Workplace Safety [PDF]
Workplace accidents are an important economic phenomenon. Yet, the pro-cyclical fluctuations in workplace accidents are not well understood. They could be related to fluctuations in effort and working hours, but workplace accidents may also be affected ...
