CONTINUOUS SURVEILLANCE OF POINTS BY ROTATING FLOODLIGHTS [PDF]

International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications, 2014
Let P and F be sets of n ≥ 2 and m ≥ 2 points in a plane, respectively. We study the problem of finding the minimum angle α ϵ [2Π/m, 2Π] such that one can install at each point of F a stationary rotating floodlight with illumination angle α, initially oriented in a suitable direction, in such a way that, at all times, every target point of P is ...

High‐Gloss SVBRDF Capture Using Bounce Light

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Reflectance capture aims at the visual reproduction of an object under varying illumination. Past works differ substantially in their experimental overhead, from single‐ or few‐image approaches, that employ significant (often learned) priors at the expense of biased reconstructions, to more accurate approaches that tend to be time‐consuming ...

Recruiting Street‐Level Bureaucrats Through Co‐Design: The Effects of Incorporating Citizen Insights Into Job Advertisements

Public Administration Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Street‐level bureaucrats (SLBs) directly affect citizens, making them central to public service delivery. Service success therefore hinges on public sector organizations' ability to recruit competent SLBs. We argue that citizens' perspectives should inform SLB recruitment, especially for contact‐intensive, relational frontline roles.

Targeting progressive multiple sclerosis: Toward mechanism‐informed precision medicine

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 300, Issue 3, Page 238-257, September 2026.
Abstract Multiple sclerosis has undergone a therapeutic revolution over the past three decades. Randomized clinical trials and real‐world data demonstrate that modern disease‐modifying therapies substantially reduce relapse rates and acute inflammatory activity detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Dual Pathways of Loneliness in the Marketplace: Emotional Attachment, Empowerment, and Evaluations of Brand Warmth and Brand Competence

Psychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 8, Page 1933-1950, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Loneliness shapes consumer behavior, yet whether it increases preference for warm or competent brands remains unresolved. We argue that this question cannot be answered without distinguishing who is perceived to be lonely. Individual loneliness, which is a person's subjective experience of social disconnection, activates agency‐restoration ...

Shadow‐Free Back‐Contact Perovskite Thin‐Film Detectors for Direct Extreme‐Ultraviolet and Soft X‐Ray Sensing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 14, 21 July 2026.
A triple‐cation perovskite detector with a quasi‐interdigitated back‐contact architecture enables highly sensitive and linear EUV/soft x‐ray detection by minimizing electrode shadowing and enhancing charge extraction. Efficient interfacial carrier collection and rapid temporal response highlight the potential of back‐contact‐engineered perovskites for ...

Personal Roles, Professional Choices: The Effect of Boundary Management in Professional Partner Selection

Journal of Organizational Behavior, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 985-1004, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Developments such as digitalization and remote work increasingly decentralize traditional work environments, shifting professional interaction from physical to virtual spaces. This shift may blur traditional boundaries between individuals' roles within and beyond the workplace and consequently heighten the influence of cues that signal ...

The Ironic Effects of Financial Constraint‐Induced Suppression on Consumer Behavior

Psychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 1549-1559, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Financial constraints are a pervasive concern for consumers, shaping spending patterns and psychological coping mechanisms. While previous research has primarily focused on behavioral adaptations, this study explores a cognitive mechanism: thought suppression.
