Dust Budget Crisis in Little Red Dots
The Astrophysical Journal LettersLittle red dots (LRDs), a population of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) recently identified by JWST, are characterized by their compact morphology and red optical continuum emission, which is often interpreted as evidence for significant dust extinction of

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how directors with environmental protection (EP) backgrounds influence corporate biodiversity concern (BIO) among Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Drawing on Upper Echelons Theory, we argue that directors' environmental expertise shapes firms' biodiversity strategies.

Protocol for Reconstituting Adaptor‐Mediated Activation of Full‐Length Kinesin‐1
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Kinesin‐1 is a member of the kinesin superfamily that plays an essential role in intracellular cargo transport. In the absence of cargo, Kinesin‐1 exhibits low motor activity due to autoinhibition. Multiple studies have demonstrated that adaptor proteins, which link cargos to Kinesin‐1, can activate Kinesin‐1 by releasing the autoinhibition ...

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.Abstract The growing demand for sustainable fuels has accelerated the development of algae‐derived biodiesel for compression‐ignition engines. In this study, Chlorella vulgaris methyl ester (AME) exhibited physicochemical properties comparable to diesel and satisfied ASTM D6751 fuel quality requirements, making it suitable for blending.

A Detection of Circumgalactic Dust at Megaparsec Scales with Maximum Likelihood Estimation
The Astrophysical JournalOne of the more surprising astrophysical discoveries of the past decade has been the presence of enormous quantities of dust at megaparsec distances from galaxies, which has important implications for galaxy evolution, the circumgalactic and ...

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This research was conducted within the framework of project SI2.825082, funded by the European Commission—DG GROW. The project's objective was to finalise a European approach for assessing the fire performance of façades under medium and large fire exposure conditions.

Examining extinction distributions for type Ia supernovae in simulated 3D galaxies
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. Dust extinction and reddening, commonly parameterized by AV and E(B − V), respectively, greatly contribute to type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) observed color and magnitude variations.

Flammability of Facades Across Scales and International Standards
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Facade fires are a rare but destructive hazard that can lead to the rapid spread of fire between the floors and fire compartments of a building. Today, there are at least 21 different national standards for facade fire tests in use around the world, which seek to categorize facades based on their flammability.
