Laser‐Synthesized Amorphous PdSe2‐x Nanoparticles: A Defect‐Rich Platform for High‐Efficiency SERS, Photocatalysis, and Photothermal Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 8, 21 April 2026.
Using femtosecond ablation, we show that an ordered, stoichiometric crystalline PdSe2 target can be controllably converted into a stable, disordered, non‐stoichiometric, and highly functional amorphous nanomaterial, PdSe2−x${\rm PdSe}_{2-x}$. The obtained nanoparticles offer significant advantages over conventional planar plasmon‐free substrates due to

On the literary structure of the Older Avesta [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, 2002
This article argues that the Yasna Haptaŋhāiti constituted the kernel of a ritual text recited during the Yasna ceremony. Zaraθušhtra's Gathas were arranged around it, and so were the holy prayers and later additions in Younger Avestan. The arrangement of the extant Older Avesta is probably the original one, and may go back to the composer himself. Its

Observation of Linear and Nonlinear Light Trapping on Topological Dislocations

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 8, 17 April 2026.
Topological dislocations are global lattice defects found in various systems ranging from crystals to photonic lattices. This work reports the first observation at optical frequencies of linear modes with tunable localization bound to edge dislocations and their nonlinear counterparts ‐ dislocation solitons. These results reveal an intriguing interplay

Correctable or not? The case of plant epithets derived from the Elbrus/Elburs Mountains in Iran, with further notes on taxonomic grey literature

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Plant name epithets (as well as names of other organisms governed by the ICN), which are derived from geographic names, are not correctable when their original spelling was intentional and based on contemporary linguistic realities, even if it is currently considered outdated.
