Towards an integrated molecular understanding of plant hormones

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review offers a comprehensive overview of the nine plant hormones, delving into their biosynthesis, transport, signaling and crosstalk mechanisms. Because the complexity of plant hormonal control goes beyond these core elements, additional specific features are discussed. Lastly, this review highlights how fundamental insights drive hormonal‐based

Polymer degradation rate control of hybrid rocket combustion [PDF]

Polymer degradation to small fragments is treated as a rate controlling step in hybrid rocket combustion. Both numerical and approximate analytical solutions of the complete energy and polymer chain bond conservation equations for the condensed phase are

“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

Simulations of secondary Farley-Buneman instability driven by a kilometer-scale primary wave: anomalous transport and formation of flat-topped electric fields [PDF]

, 2019
Since the 1950s, high frequency and very high frequency radars near the magnetic equator have frequently detected strong echoes caused ultimately by the Farley‐Buneman instability (FBI) and the gradient drift instability (GDI).

Narrative reconstruction of the self: Living funerals as rituals of trauma and transformation

The Australian Journal of Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Living funerals mark a radical reconfiguration of contemporary engagements with mortality, transforming death from an imposed ending into an actively authored narrative. This study examines the practice in Hong Kong's hybrid sociocultural landscape, where traditional Chinese death rituals collide with neoliberal selfhood and globalised ...

Chronic Low‐Dose Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine Exposure in Rats: Multiorgan Mechanisms and Biomarker Identification

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1987-2002, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

3D printed hybrid rocket fuels with μAl core-shell particles coated with polyvinylidene fluoride and polydopamine: Enhanced combustion characteristics

Defence Technology
3D printing technology enhances the combustion characteristics of hybrid rocket fuels by enabling complex geometries. However, improvements in regression rates and energy properties of monotonous 3D printed fuels have been limited.

Nitrous Oxide/Paraffin Hybrid Rocket Engines [PDF]

Nitrous oxide/paraffin (N2OP) hybrid rocket engines have been invented as alternatives to other rocket engines especially those that burn granular, rubbery solid fuels consisting largely of hydroxyl- terminated polybutadiene (HTPB).

Situating African FinTech in Global Financial Networks

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract This paper explores the geographical patterns of firm creation and investments in African FinTech and how they have evolved since the emergence of FinTech on the continent. Our findings show waves of investment, specialisation of different FinTech centres and the networks of FinTech capital.
