Tuning the Hydrogen Bond Network Inside the Helmholtz Plane for Industrial Hydrogen Evolution
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The hydrogen bond network within the Helmholtz plane, a key component affecting the hydrogen evolution kinetics, remains far from having a consensus owing to the lack of fundamental understanding. Herein, it is discovered that the introduction of the atomic electric field generated by the weak Ru─Ga bonds can further improve the proportion of 4 ...

Voter Turnout in Direct Democracy: Theory and Evidence [PDF]
We analyse voter turnout as a function of referendum types. An advisory referendum produces advice that a legislature may or may not take into account when choosing between two alternatives, whereas a binding referendum generates a decisive decision.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, a physically enhanced vascular dECM bioink and used 3D‐coaxial bioprinting are developed to fabricate mature brain blood vessels for cerebral atherosclerosis research. This model demonstrates that vascular geometry‐induced hemodynamic changes trigger vascular inflammation, ensuring its potential for cerebrovascular research.

With or Against the People? The Impact of a Bottom-Up Approach on Tax Morale and the Shadow Economy [PDF]
Policymakers often propose strict enforcement strategies to fight the shadow economy and to increase tax morale. However, there is also a bottom-up approach: decentralizing the political power to those who are close to the problems and give them a direct
