Invisible Labor and the “Ghost Particle”: Underground Physics at the Kolar Gold Fields**
Abstract When cosmic rays—high‐energy particles from outer space—encounter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce particles called neutrinos. To detect them, physicists go underground inside deep mines where the overlying rock can filter out the cosmic‐ray background radiation.

ABSTRACT Despite the environmental imperative of a transition to a circular economy (CE), the current literature finds that globally firms are being slow to engage with such a transition. In this context, our thematic review explores how artificial intelligence (AI) might accelerate firm CE transition.

A Metamodel of Unit Testing for Object-Oriented Programming Languages [PDF]
A unit test is a method for verifying the accuracy and the proper functioning of a portion of a program. This work consists to study the relation and the approaches to test Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) programs and to propose a metamodel that enables the programmer to write the tests while writing the source code to be tested by exploiting the key

Abstract There has been significant and extensive knowledge production in the last four decades regarding pragmatic language impairment (PLI) in children with neurodevelopmental disorders. The evidence contained in this literature, however, is contradictory. The present scoping review (ScR) seeks to disentangle competing explanations of conceptualizing,

Digital Technologies: Description, Classification, and Links to Circular Economy
ABSTRACT Digital technologies (DTs) and circular economy (CE) are currently two topics that are expected to contribute significantly to sustainable development, and digitization is generally considered a key enabler of CE. However, most studies only cover the most known Industry 4.0 technologies, and very limited research detailing how DTs can support ...

ABSTRACT The ongoing challenges of climate change, ecosystem degradation and demand for natural resources make sustainability a global priority. Models, guidelines and frameworks are particularly valuable in the field of management as they help to solve problems. This study aims to explore them from an interdisciplinary perspective, including a concern

Design and Implementation of a Reversible Object-Oriented Programming Language [PDF]
High-level reversible programming languages are few and far between and in general offer only rudimentary abstractions from the details of the underlying machine. Modern programming languages offer a wide array of language constructs and paradigms to facilitate the design of abstract interfaces, but we currently have a very limited understanding of the
