Endohedral fullerenes as qubits: From synthesis to quantum computing applications

InfoMat, EarlyView.
Endohedral fullerenes emerge as promising platforms for qubits and qudits. This review surveys the primary synthesis routes, from arc‐discharge to high‐yield molecular surgery. It then details spin manipulation and readout in key systems, including metal‐based, cluster, and nitrogen‐containing fullerenes.

Utilisation of Objective and Subjective Image Quality Metrics to Guide Optimal Contrast Volumes for Abdominal CT

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Determining the appropriate volume of iodinated contrast media (ICM) for portal venous phase abdominal CT is challenging. Objective image quality assessment demonstrates weight‐based volume dosing reduces the dependence of enhancement on patient size, compared to fixed volume.

From the sea to DNA barcode: Optimized preservation method for gelatinous zooplankton integrative taxonomy

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Chronic Loneliness Reduces Choice Likelihood of Products With Prosocial Attributes

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic loneliness influences consumer preferences and behaviors in various consumption domains. Building on the evolutionary theory of loneliness (ETL), this article extends the marketing and psychology literature on the effects of chronic loneliness to prosocial consumption.

Design and optoelectronic profiling of a semicrystalline thiophene–phenylene copolymer for advanced organic electronics

Polymer International, EarlyView.
A new semicrystalline copolymer, PTBT‐3OBu, was synthesized. Intramolecular S···O conformational locks induce high backbone planarity, promoting strong interchain coupling and molecular ordering in thin films, seen in an optical red shift. This synergy between planarity and semicrystalline morphology is promising for photovoltaic and electrochromic ...

A framework to evaluate and identify development requirements for land‐surface models at km‐scale resolution: Application to a semi‐arid and mountainous region

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need
