Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Early evolutionary history of the seed
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Innovations in microsurgery: The role of non‐invasive blood perfusion imaging—A review and framework
Abstract Background This review evaluates current literature on non‐invasive blood perfusion imaging in periodontology, with a focus on applications in periodontal microsurgery. Methods A hypothesis‐building review was conducted by two reviewers from January 2022 to April 2025 across multiple databases. Results Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) and

Staggered, square, and heavily bent dimers occur in the five known solvatomorphs of paddlewheel (PW) complex [PtVO(SOCPh)4]. These and other structural motifs are well within energetic reach due to the shallow potential energy surface that guides dimerization and are included in a revised classification of available structural data on heterobimetallic ...

ABSTRACT The chemical system Li/Ti/P has previously been subject to intensive investigation. However, reliable structural data for the reported phases have remained elusive. Motivated by the growing interest in phosphorus‐based lithium‐ion conductors, we have reinvestigated the synthesis, crystal structure, and physical properties of Li8TiP4.

Fluorinated poly(pyridyl)borates have been utilized to stabilize rhodium‐diene complexes and as supporting ligands in rhodium‐catalyzed redox‐neutral C–C silylation of cyclopropyl acetates, producing silicon‐containing heterocyclic products, dioxasilolanes.

Surfactant‐modified nanoparticles adsorb at the oil–water interface, enabling interfacial stabilization and microemulsion formation. Abstract This study systematically investigated the interfacial behaviour of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS), and nonionic (Triton ...

Bayesian clustering of multivariate extremes
Abstract The asymptotic dependence structure between multivariate extreme values is fully characterized by their projections on the unit simplex. Under mild conditions, the only constraint on the resulting distributions is that their marginal means must be equal, which results in a nonparametric model that can be difficult to use in applications ...
