A Role for Sunspots in Explaining Endogenous Fluctutations in Illegal Immigration [PDF]

In this paper we provide an alternative explanation for why illegal immigration can exhibit substantial fluctuations despite a constant wage gap. We develop a model economy in which migrants make decisions in the face of uncertain border enforcement and ...

Gravitational waves in the $f(R,T)$ theory of gravity

, 2016
There is a host of alternative theories of gravitation in the literature, among them the $f(R,T)$ recently elaborated by Harko and collaborators. In these theories the $R$ and $T$ are respectively the Ricci scalar and the trace of the energy momentum ...

Engineering Porous Hollow Metal‐Poly(Heptazine Imide) Spheres: An Optimized Synthetic Strategy for Controlling Surface, Morphology, and Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hollow poly(heptazine imide) spheres are prepared through a novel approach that integrates hard templating with ionothermal synthesis. This method enables precise control over surface area, pore volume, hydrophilicity, light absorption, band position, and metal composition. These tunable properties facilitate the customized design of semiconductors for

The Host R‐M Systems Change the Host Range of Staphylococcus Phage EBHT

MicrobiologyOpen
Therapeutically utilized phages should optimally be produced in defined bacterial strains that are free of prophages and virulence factors. However, phage–host interactions in these production strains may be very different from clinical strains. Here, we

Pentagonal 2D Altermagnets: Material Screening and Altermagnetic Tunneling Junction Device Application

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
From a database of 170 pentagonal 2D materials, 4 candidates exhibiting altermagnetic ordering are screened. Furthermore, the spin‐splitting and unconventional boundary states in the pentagonal 2D altermagnetic monolayer MnS2 are investigated. A MnS2‐based altermagnetic tunneling junction is designed and, through ab initio quantum transport simulations,
