Jewelled Byzantine and Medieval Reliquaries of the True Cross: Peridots and Other Gemstones in Material and Symbolic Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
An interdisciplinary in situ study of jewelled reliquaries of the True Cross integrates gemmology and portable analytical techniques, revealing new evidence on the identification and symbolic role of peridots and other gemstones. ABSTRACT Jewelled crosses containing relics of the True Cross occupy a central position in the devotional, artistic and ...

Nature of Surface Microcracks on Phosphorus Micro‐Alloyed Copper

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
SSRT tests and microscopic characterization methods were used to study the effect of plastic deformation and environment on the formation of surface microcracks on Cu‐OFP. Results show that, while ambient conditions produced thousands of microcracks per mm2, exposure to sulfide water resulted in fewer microcracks with no evidence of crack growth ...

AI Cracks Jokes: Building Consumer–Brand Closeness Through Machine‐Generated Humor

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integrating AI led social cues into service encounters has become a key strategy for humanizing technology. Grounded in Social Penetration Theory, this research examines how AI‐generated humor styles (affiliative vs. self‐defeating) influence consumer brand identification and proposes consumer personality as a key moderator.

A Case of Distal Hereditary Motor Neuronopathy‐7 With Two Novel VWA1 Variants in Compound Heterozygosity

open access: yesNeurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Distal hereditary motor neuronopathy‐7 (HMNR7) is an autosomal recessive VWA1‐related disorder characterized predominantly by distal motor involvement. A 41‐year‐old man with a history of childhood orthopedic surgery for foot deformities exhibited progressive distal weakness and muscle atrophy with lower limb predominance. Electrophysiological

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...
