On the Assembly of Actin Polymerization‐Powered Motors

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Actin polymerization‐powered motors have the highest speed when the actin recruiting‐polymerizing proteins are immobilized in polymer brushes on their surface. These motors orbit around larger tracer particles at pH above the isoelectric point of ActA but dock onto the tracer particles’ surface at lower pH. ABSTRACT Nano‐ and micromotors are a class of

A physics primer on photon‐counting detectors in CT: Physics, signal formation, and performance

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Photon‐counting detector CT (PCD‐CT) is moving from laboratory development to clinical deployment. However, its threshold‐bin data arise from a tightly coupled detector–readout chain that can be difficult to understand as a whole. These data are not a direct readout of photon energy, but the outcome of a sequence of physical and electronic ...

A Stopped‐Flow Instrument for Millisecond Timescale Reaction Monitoring on a Standard NMR Spectrometer

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Chemistry, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 711-728, August 2026.
A new stopped‐flow instrument allows kinetic measurements of reactions 10 milliseconds after initiating them by mixing in a flow cell inserted into a standard NMR probe and spectrometer. High‐speed video, pressure and NMR line‐shape data are used to characterise mixing and stopping, and a protodeboronation reaction with a 5‐millisecond half‐life used ...

The Evolution of Semiconductor Devices: From Transistors to Quantum and Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, Volume 20, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review presents the evolution of semiconductor devices from BJTs to fin field‐effect transistors (FinFETs), nanowire, and carbon nanotube transistors. It highlights emerging materials, including SiC and GaN, and examines neuromorphic and quantum computing, industry applications, performance benchmarks, challenges, and future directions.

Muscle Mitochondrial Oxidative Capacity and Cognitive Decline Over up to a Decade: Sex Differences

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
Skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity is linked to cognition and predicts cognitive decline primarily in men. Underlying mechanisms appear to differ by sex, likely through a metabolic‐drive pathway in men and a hematologic‐inflammatory pathway in women.

Graphdiyne as a Hole‐Transport Channel in Carbon Nitride Heterojunctions for Synergistic CO2 Reduction and γ‐Butyrolactone Synthesis

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 28, 6 July 2026.
A fully metal‐free heterojunction constructed from graphdiyne (GDY) and polymeric carbon nitride (PCN) enables efficient coupling of CO2 reduction and tetrahydrofuran oxidation. GDY serves as a hole‐transport channel, establishing a built‐in electric field that drives spatial charge separation. The optimized catalyst achieves near‐unity selectivity for

South Korea's THAAD Decision at the Domestic–International Nexus: Preferences, Information, and Constraints

open access: yesPacific Focus, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 175-188, August 2026.
ABSTRACT South Korean President Park Geun‐hye's 2016 decision to authorize the deployment of the U.S. Forces Korea THAAD system—and Beijing's subsequent economic and diplomatic coercion—marked a decisive inflection point in Seoul's China policy.

Aboveground and Belowground Insect Herbivory Changes Maize‐Wireworm Interactions via Root Volatile Cues

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5689-5702, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The rhizosphere harbours critical plant‐herbivore interactions often mediated by small lipophilic molecules (SLMs). Despite the agricultural importance of many soil‐dwelling insects, surprisingly little is known about chemically mediated belowground crop‐pest interactions. Root and shoot herbivores can influence these interactions by modifying

Atomic Simulations of Volatile Coverage on Silicate Surfaces

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Understanding how surface processes shape exosphere formation on airless bodies is limited by how surface properties influence the ejection of volatiles such as Na. Recent studies show that retention and release are sensitive to surface binding energy (SBE), motivating the need for SBE values as a function of mineral type and surface coverage.
