First‐Principles Study of Structural, Mechanical, Electronic, Thermodynamical, and Optical Properties of XGaO2 (X = Rb and Cs): Unlocking Its Green Energy Potential

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This study employs density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the structural, mechanical, electronic, optical, and thermodynamic properties of RbGaO2 and CsGaO2. The calculated band structures and band‐edge positions indicate semiconducting behavior and favorable alignment for photocatalytic dye degradation and hydrogen evolution, highlighting ...

Exploration of Physical Properties of Sodium‐Based Perovskite Hydrides ANaH3 (A = Hf, Nb, Pd, Ru) for Hydrogen Storage Applications: First Principles Study

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
First‐principles calculations reveal that ANaH3 (where A = Hf, Nb, Pd, Ru) perovskite hydrides combine structural stability, favorable electronic properties, and low hydrogen desorption temperatures (280–369 K). Strong metal–hydrogen interactions and reversible hydrogen storage characteristics identify these materials as promising candidates for ...

Study of Structural, Electronic, Optical, Mechanical, Thermal, and Thermoelectric Properties of MPSi3 [M = Al, Ga, In] Semiconductors by DFT Method

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This study explores the compounds MPSi3 [M = Al, Ga, In] and introduces InPSi3 as a promising material for solar cell applications. Findings reveal stability, excellent band gaps, and strong optical absorption, suggesting that these materials are ideal candidates for advancing energy‐harvesting technologies. ABSTRACT In this study, a new semiconducting

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Endothermy, neuron counts, and other issues: Further remarks on neurocognitive evolution in fossil vertebrates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Biochemical Studies and Production Optimization of β‐Glucosidase From Microcystis aeruginosa CACIAM 03 Using Organic Waste

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming and industrial pollutants pose significant threats to environmental sustainability. In response, enzymes have emerged as promising tools for mitigating pollution. Enzymatic hydrolysis is considered environmentally sustainable due to its biological nature.
