A Field-Driven Growth Model for Uniform Thin-Film Growth
Externally applied electric fields are widely employed during thin-film deposition to improve film uniformity, texture and densification. Despite extensive experimental evidence, the physical mechanisms by which such fields influence nucleation, surface ...

Asteroseismic Stellar Modelling with AIMS
The goal of AIMS (Asteroseismic Inference on a Massive Scale) is to estimate stellar parameters and credible intervals/error bars in a Bayesian manner from a set of asteroseismic frequency data and so-called classical constraints.

Abstract Oblique slow rifting in a hotspot setting has created a distributed volcanic zone in the central part of the Azores but it's unclear what causes focusing of magma upflow under the islands within a wide plate boundary deformation zone. For São Jorge Island, we use a three‐dimensional finite element model to evaluate crustal stress from the ...

Abstract Uncertainty in anthropogenic forcing driven by aerosol‐cloud interactions (aci) limits our ability to infer the sensitivity of the Earth system to forcing from historical records. The driver of aci is the change in cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) due to changes in aerosol serving as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).

Epidemiological Insights Into Polycystic Liver Disease: Data From Forensic Autopsies in Portugal
ABSTRACT Polycystic liver disease (PLD) is a rare hereditary disorder characterised by multiple hepatic cysts, occurring either in isolation or in association with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Population‐based prevalence data are scarce, and no national data are available for Portugal.

Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency
Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.
