Domain Walls and Spaces of Special Holonomy [PDF]
We review the relations between a family of domain-wall solutions to M-theory and gravitational instantons with special holonomy. When oxidized into the maximal-dimension parent supergravity, the transverse spaces of these domain walls become ...

Concussed: Unintended Consequences of the Guardian Cap Mandate in the NFL
ABSTRACT Guardian Caps are padded shells worn over American football helmets to cushion impacts and reduce concussion risks. In 2022, the NFL mandated their use for specific position groups during preseason practices, later expanding this requirement. While the league praised the Caps for enhancing player safety, skeptics argue they may promote riskier

Assessing habitat suitability for black grouse broods at the bioregional scale
The black grouse Lyrurus tetrix, a galliform species emblematic of the European Alps, is currently threatened by habitat change, particularly given the closure of heathland linked to the rising tree line at higher altitudes. The presence of heathlands in good ecological condition is, however, imperative for the species' reproduction.

Little is known about what happens to juvenile birds after one or both of their parents are harvested by hunters during the post‐fledging dependency period. Here, we compare the fate of juvenile Canada geese Branta canadensis that lost ≥ 1 parent to hunters (orphans) during this period to other juveniles that retained both parents (non‐orphans). For 25

Orthogonal decomposition of Lorentz transformations
The canonical decomposition of a Lorentz algebra element into a sum of orthogonal simple (decomposable) Lorentz bivectors is discussed, as well as the decomposition of a proper orthochronous Lorentz transformation into a product of commuting Lorentz ...

Modeling small‐angle scattering data of porous and/or bicontinuous structures in n dimensions
A small‐angle scattering fitting function is derived for porous materials with arbitrary fractal dimension. It includes a correlation peak and a power law at higher q.Fractal structures are often observed in small‐angle scattering experiments where a simple power law q−α describes the scattering intensity over many orders of magnitude.

Spectroscopic Determination of Binding Constants of Modified β-cyclodextrins with Brooker’s Merocyanine [PDF]
Host-guest complexation occurs when a guest molecule is held inside a host molecule through weak molecular forces. β-cyclodextrin, a host molecule, has a variety of uses and is often applied in pharmaceuticals.

The authors distil how dimensions of biodiversity drive ecosystem processes with increasing temperature. Specifically, species physiology more greatly affected ecosystem primary production than did foraging behaviour, and physiology mediated non‐additive interactions with temperature.
