Dibenzosuberene‐Winged Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
The twisted acene 8, which features two dibenzosuberene “wings”, was prepared by the addition of a crowded aryne to a similarly “winged” cyclopentadienone. Compound 8 is chiral, and it has a high barrier to thermal racemization (ΔG‡rac = 36 kcal/mol), but it undergoes fast photochemical racemization even in ambient light.

Mesoblends consist of a nanostructured polymer into which a second polymer is imbibed with a selective solvent. In this work, a solvent‐templatable pentablock terpolymer possessing a sulfonated midblock is modified with a hydrophilic polymer that is photocrosslinked in situ, yielding a hierarchical binetwork.

Illuminating the x-Axis by α-Floodlights.
Given a set S of regions with piece-wise linear boundary and a positive angle α < 90◦, we consider the problem of computing the locations and orientations of the minimum number of α-floodlights positioned at points in S which suffice to illuminate the entire x-axis.

We experimentally evaluated the effects of artificial lighting on mammal visitation patterns at waterholes in north‐central Namibia using motion‐activated camera traps across two dry seasons. Lighting had minimal effects on most species, although gemsboks increased use of artificially lit waterholes and lions reduced nocturnal activity at illuminated ...

MLDAS: Machine Learning Dynamic Algorithm Selection for Software‐Defined Networking Security
ABSTRACT Network security is a critical concern in the digital landscape of today, with users demanding secure browsing experiences and protection of their personal data. This study explores the dynamic integration of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms with Software‐Defined Networking (SDN) controllers to enhance network security through adaptive ...

Abstract Capturing the high‐speed behaviour of nocturnal animals remains technically challenging because conventional video systems require intense illumination that disrupts natural activity. Event‐based vision sensors (EVS) overcome this constraint, yet their ecological uptake has been slow owing to a lack of software capable of analysing the sparse,

Haptic Feedback and the Role of Need for Touch on Augmented Reality Mobile Shopping Apps
ABSTRACT As mobile commerce has become increasingly prevalent, retailers have sought to enhance the mobile shopping experience by incorporating multisensory stimulation (i.e., visual, auditory, and now tactile stimulation). This paper investigates the presence of sensory inputs, specifically haptic feedback, when positioning and manipulating augmented ...

Given three angles summing to 2, given n points in the plane and a tripartition k1 + k2 + k3 = n, we can tripartition the plane into three wedges of the given angles so that the i-th wedge contains ki of the points. This new result on dissecting point sets is used to prove that lights of specied angles not exceeding can be placed at n xed points in the

Elevated temporal tau PET predicts faster cognitive decline in women than men: A meta‐analysis
Abstract INTRODUCTION Women show higher levels of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology than men, but the implications for cognitive decline remain unclear. Determining the extent to which tau burden differentially accelerates cognitive decline in men and women will provide critical insights into sex‐specific pathways of disease progression.
