Journal of Science Fiction and Philosophy, 2021 A planetary panic and almost deserted cities, fear of food shortages, and the growing threat of an invisible virus that does more damage day by day. In the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, many believe that science fiction has now been overtaken by reality.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.From a database of 170 pentagonal 2D materials, 4 candidates exhibiting altermagnetic ordering are screened. Furthermore, the spin‐splitting and unconventional boundary states in the pentagonal 2D altermagnetic monolayer MnS2 are investigated. A MnS2‐based altermagnetic tunneling junction is designed and, through ab initio quantum transport simulations,

Normative Crisis in Regionalist American Short Fiction
Journal of the Short Story in English, 2023 Methodically this essay tries to gauge the usefulness of anthropological and juridical concepts of transition and change for the analysis of short fiction. The first part scrutinizes Victor Turner’s liminality as well as Carl Schmitt’s and Giorgio Agamben’s states of exception as conceptualizations which explain the suspension of normative order in the

Micropatterned Biphasic Printed Electrodes for High‐Fidelity on‐Skin Bioelectronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Micropatterned biphasic printed electrodes achieve unprecedented skin conformity and low impedance by combining liquid‐metal droplets with microstructured 3D lattices. This scalable approach enables high‐fidelity detection of ECG, EMG, and EEG signals, including alpha rhythms from the forehead, with long‐term comfort and stability.
