On Modified Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We consider some aspects of nonlocal modified gravity, where nonlocality is of the type $R \mathcal{F}(\Box) R$. In particular, using ansatz of the form $\Box R = c R^\gamma,$ we find a few $R(t)$ solutions for the spatially flat FLRW metric.

Mid‐Infrared Quantum Scanning Microscopy via Visible Light Beyond Spatial Correlations

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work introduces a raster‐scanning approach based on quantum imaging with undetected light (QIUL) that probes samples in the mid‐infrared (MIR) spectral range while performing detection in the visible domain. Unlike previous QIUL implementations, this technique operates independently of photon‐pair spatial correlations and relies solely on induced ...

Associations between Fitness Measures and Change of Direction Speeds with and without Occupational Loads in Female Police Officers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Female police officers may be required to pursue offenders on foot while wearing occupational loads. The aim of this study was to determine relationships between fitness measures and change of direction speed (CODS) in female police officers and the ...

Effect of Nanoparticles Type and Content on the Antimicrobial Activity of Magnetoelectric Polymer‐Based Composites

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Magnetoelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) nanocomposites containing CFO or Fe3O4 nanoparticles were developed to generate electroactive microenvironments under magnetic stimulation. At 1 Hz, particularly with 20% CFO, strong antimicrobial effects were observed against E. coli and S. aureus. This approach highlights the potential of magnetically activated surfaces to

Electrochemical and Surface Insights Into X12CrMoWVNbN10‐1‐1 Steel Corrosion in Chloride Solutions at Variable pH

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The corrosion performance of X12CrMoWVNbN10‐1‐1 steel in chloride environments dramatically depends on pH. Acidic conditions trigger intense surface degradation, whereas neutral and alkaline media foster the formation of a compact and stable passive film, drastically reducing both general and localized corrosion.

Angular momentum and topological dependence of Kepler's Third Law in the Broucke-Hadjidemetriou-H\'enon family of periodic three-body orbits

open access: yes, 2016
We use 57 recently found topological satellites of Broucke-Hadjidemetriou-Henon's periodic orbits with values of the topological exponent $k$ ranging from $k$ = 3 to $k$ = 58 to plot the angular momentum $L$ as a function of the period $T$, with both $L$

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.

Socio‐demographic and geographical patterns in forest and park use: Insights from 33 European countries

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Access to (urban) nature is vital for people's wellbeing, but this accessibility is not evenly spread across socio‐demographic groups, nor across the European continent. This paper fills a research gap by exploring the use patterns and accessibility of forests and parks across European cities, based on a standardised online survey of 10,462 ...

Ongoing Pristina – Belgrade Talks: from Decentralization to Regional Cooperation and Future Perspectives. EDAP 4/2012 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
On 17 February 2008, Kosovo declared independence, ending its nine years unresolved status. The principal goal was, and remains, the need to involve different communities in the state structures.

Linking Density and Nanoscale Crystallinity to Hydration in Nafion PEMFC Membranes: Insights From Experiment and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics and experimental analysis show that higher crystallinity in Nafion enhances molecular packing, thereby increasing effective density. A proposed model bridges experimental and molecular‐scale observations by quantitatively linking water uptake to density variations, offering a predictive framework for optimising hydration and ...
