Mobile electromagnetic levitator for time‐resolved in situ X‐ray diffraction studies of high‐temperature phase transformations

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A mobile electromagnetic levitator combined with time‐resolved synchrotron X‐ray diffraction enables in situ studies of high‐temperature phase transformations without container‐induced contamination and reveals the first direct observation of metastable phase formation in undercooled Fe–Co alloys.In situ observations of high‐temperature transformations,

Re‐refinement of the structure of the planar hexagonal phase of ZnO nanocrystals

Acta Crystallographica Section B, EarlyView.
The planar hexagonal phase of ZnO is significant for understanding ferroelectricity in this class of materials, and it is well established for ZnO in layered systems. Previously it has been reported as freestanding nanocrystals, but the fitted unit‐cell parameters differed from predictions by up to 16%; we resolve this anomaly to provide fundamental ...

Allochthonous chemical cues drive predation by a top carnivore

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Identifying the mechanisms by which mobile predators detect and select prey remains a central challenge in sensory biology and functional ecology. This study provides the first direct evidence that chemical cues associated with allochthonous organic matter (e.g.

The Red–Green Electoral Threat to the Labour Party

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract For the first time, Labour faces credible electoral threats from minor parties to its left. The Greens and the newly formed Your Party offer left‐wing and Muslim voters disillusioned with Labour viable electoral alternatives and parliamentary representation. This article considers how great the threat is to Labour. It uses a model of how minor

‘The Good Couscous That Pleases Us!’: The Meanings of Enduring Imperialist Imagery in Postcolonial French Food Advertising, 1970–2000

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines a wave of Orientalism‐inspired food commercials that appeared on television in France between 1975 and 2000. Older commercials for couscous were more banal, emphasizing a given product's superiority or affordability. Around 1975, however, there was a concerted shift in the advertising; new spots contained exoticized ...

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

Analysts' Cultural Long‐Term Orientation and Their Information Production Orientation culturelle à long terme des analystes et production d'information

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study how analysts' inherited cultural attitudes to time orientation affect their production of long‐term information and the profitability of their stock recommendations. We find that analysts from long‐term‐oriented cultures exhibit a longer forecast horizon and issue more long‐term forecasts.

Impact of Forest Fragmentation and Associated Edge Effects on Tropical Forest Biodiversity in North West Madagascar, Assessed via Ecoacoustics

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Public virtue, private ambition—Women owners of private hospitals in early twentieth‐century New Zealand

Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract New Zealand's early‐twentieth‐century health service was a two‐tier system of state hospitals supported by an expanding network of over 300 private hospitals, almost exclusively owned by nurses and midwives. This article will show that this environment was created by a legislative framework introduced between 1901 and 1906, requiring nurses ...
