Application of electrostatic and multi‐layer embedding in Hirshfeld atom refinements: a cost‐effective approach for approximating bulk effects in crystalline environments

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
A new efficient embedding mechanism for molecule‐in‐a‐crystal electron‐density calculations during Hirshfeld atom refinement is made available in NoSpherA2 and benchmarked.One of the main advantages of Hirshfeld atom refinement (HAR), besides improved refinement statistics and reduced uncertainties of all derived parameters, is the possibility of ...

Early‐life environment drives long‐term decrease in adult body mass in a wild bird population

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using more than 90,000 body mass measures of adult and nestling great tits Parus major, we show that the 1 SD decline in adult mass between 1978 and 2024 is a consequence of changes in the environment (i.e. increase in population density) experienced at early life.

Government by WhatsApp? Transparency, Secrecy and Avoidance during Covid in the UK

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been claimed repeatedly that transparency undermines decision‐making.

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Few have asked what happens to gender when a noun is heteroclitic – when its inflection draws on more than one inflection class. While heteroclisis has moved from being treated as a marginal irregularity to a theoretically revealing phenomenon, its implications for gender assignment remain largely unexplored.
