Tracking and Characterization of Moving Acoustic Sources Using an Infrasound Array at Volcán Santiaguito, Guatemala [PDF]
, 2015 Active volcanic processes produce large amounts of acoustic energy within the infrasound band (0-20 Hz). Infrasound-sensitive microphones are often installed in addition to other forms of volcano monitoring equipment to increase the ability to remotely ...

Modified carbon dot‐mediated transient transformation for genomic and epigenomic studies in wheat
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 4, Page 1139-1152, April 2025.Summary Genotype restriction poses a significant bottleneck to stable transformation in the vast majority of plant species, thereby severely impeding advancement in plant bioengineering, particularly for crops. Nanoparticles (NPs) can serve as effective carriers for the transient delivery of nucleic acids, facilitating gene overexpression or silencing ...

Hobbes' Ship of Theseus: On the Limits of Surviving a Gradual Replacement of Parts
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the ancient example of the Ship of Theseus, a ship is restored, having all its parts replaced. Ancient philosophers in Athens wondered if the restored ship was identical to the original ship. About 2000 years later, Thomas Hobbes introduced a twist; after all of the parts of the original ship had been replaced, what if the original parts of

Fast and Autonomous Mannosylated Nanomotors for Dynamic Cancer Cell Targeting
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 23, June 2, 2025.An enzyme‐loaded nanomotor decorated with mannose polymers shows a synergistic effect with respect to cell targeting. The mannose units interact with mannose receptors (MRs) on the cell surface, whereas the presence of the glycopolymer on the motor surface also leads to a more effective motile behavior in cell medium. Abstract An attractive strategy in
