open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sociological accounts of modernity have long emphasized rationalization, alienation, and the attenuation of affective intensity. While these diagnoses capture crucial dynamics of modern social order, they leave underexplored a persistent and generative dimension of social life: enchantment.

Patients With Atypical Symptoms of Depression Respond Better to Lithium Augmentation Than Patients Without Atypical Symptoms

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding the differences in treatment response between subtypes of major depressive disorder (MDD) may help to prevent lengthy trial‐and‐error processes by identifying effective treatment options. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of atypical features of MDD (MDD‐A) on the response to lithium augmentation (LA)

Investigation into the dyeing of pre‐mordanted & cationised woven cotton fabric with cochineal

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dyeing cotton with natural dyes typically requires the pre‐application of a mordant, which enables better dye exhaustion from solution and ‘fixes’ the colorant in the fibre. The most common application system for cellulosic fibres is a combination of plant‐derived tannins and aluminium salts, such as aluminium sulphate.

Modeling the UV/Optical Light Curve of Re-brightening Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In recent years, a new subclass of tidal disruption events (TDEs) has been reported in the literature. The light curve of these TDEs shows a re-brightening feature in the decline phase after the first peak, which then leads to a second flare.

In vivo differentiation of scarring alopecia using line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography: a pilot study

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and Objectives: Diagnosing cicatricial alopecia is challenging. Even with histology, a definitive diagnosis cannot always be made. Line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC‐OCT), a non‐invasive imaging method with high resolution used in vivo, has proven helpful in diagnosing scarring alopecia.
