Photochemical Surface Degradation in Spiropyran Based Films
Monitoring of photoswitching surface properties using molecular photochromes can give misleading results due to primary inner filter effects. The surface layer can degrade but then protect deeper layers from damage, leading to misassignment of the origin of light driven changes in surface energy.

Walking the Talk? Managing Errors in the Audit Profession*
ABSTRACT Errors reflect unintended deviations from plans or goals and commonly carry negative connotations. Although errors cannot be eliminated, they offer opportunities for learning and innovation. Audit firms employ powerful mechanisms, such as review processes, to prevent or detect audit errors and safeguard their work in the public interest.

Gravitational lenses with changeable mass distribution cause characteristic changes of image brightness. Detection and analyze of such changes allow us to clarify the nature of the lens. This effect gives a possibility to obtain such dynamical objects as

Weak lensing, dark matter and dark energy
Weak gravitational lensing is rapidly becoming one of the principal probes of dark matter and dark energy in the universe. In this brief review we outline how weak lensing helps determine the structure of dark matter halos, measure the expansion rate of ...

A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

Gravitational lensing around Kehagias–Sfetsos compact objects surrounded by plasma
We study the optical properties of the Kehagias–Sfetsos (KS) compact objects, characterized by the “Hořava” parameter $$\omega _{_{KS}}$$ ωKS , in the presence of plasma, considering its homogeneous or power-law density distribution.

Strong gravitational lensing in a squashed Kaluza-Klein black hole spacetime
We investigate the strong gravitational lensing in a Kaluza-Klein black hole with squashed horizons. We find the size of the extra dimension imprints in the radius of the photon sphere, the deflection angle, the angular position and magnification of the ...

The Upper Permian Castile Formation of the Delaware Basin, a 515.3 m (1690.6 ft) thick deep‐water evaporitic sequence dominated by anhydrite and halite, is the focus of this study. This study's sedimentological and geochemical analysis of cores from the basin's centre and margin reveals that dynamic reflux of deep hypersaline brines significantly ...
