The Czech Transition: The Importance of Microeconomic Fundamentals [PDF]
We examine the case of the Czech Republic, which has been frequently cited as one of the most successful cases of transition economies in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Despite the costs related to the break-up of Czechoslovakia in late 1992 and 1993,

Strain‐Tunable Photoluminescence From Ge Quantum Dots on Si Nanotips for CMOS‐Compatible Photonics
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.This work studies strain in Ge quantum dots grown on Si nanotips using photoluminescence, X‐ray diffraction, and band structure calculations. It shows how emission changes with dot size, evaluates strain in the dot and substrate, and explains the role of direct and indirect transitions in the optical behavior.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigated the Písečný vrch (Czech Republic), a site exploited for quartz mining in both prehistoric times and the 20th century. Due to their morphological similarity across all mining periods, the differentiation between pits with archaeological potential and recent ones is challenging.
