Advanced Flame Retardant Strategies and Fire Performance Assessment for Safer Photovoltaics in Buildings: A Two‐Part Review

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into building structures introduces distinct fire risks with critical implications for occupant safety. This review examines the key fire hazards associated with PV implementation and explores mitigation strategies, including flame‐retardant additives.

Local Government in the United States

Local Government in the United States
米国の地方政治に関する講義においてボーゲル教授は以下の4点を論じた。1）地方政府制度の特徴（細分化、連邦制度、分権の進んだ地方政府制度）2）アメリカの地方自治（地方自治の限界―ディロンのルール、住民投票、自治憲章、財源なき委任、民間企業に経済的に依存する市、連邦補助金の削減、高歳入創出、地方主義、弱い政党システム、官民のパートナーシップ、個人主義、プラグマティズム）3）政府間関係の最近の変化 4）アメリカの地方分権から日本が学べること（分権化の受け皿となる発達した地方行政制度が必要、分権化は政策に大きな影響を及ぼす、新たな責任を果たす力が地方政府にあるかどうかは経済状況に深く関わっている） identifier:https://repository.tku.ac.jp/dspace/handle ...

Financing local and regional self-government units

Zbornik radova Pravnog fakulteta u Splitu, 2019
Teritorijalna organizacija suvremenih država počiva na načelima decentralizacije, što obuhvaća političku, upravnu i financijsku neovisnost nižih razina vlasti. Temeljno je načelo da ni jedna funkcija, ni jedan posao ni zadatak ne može se dodijeliti određenoj razini vlasti ili tijelu državne vlasti a da se za to ne osiguraju novčana sredstva.

Backbone Heterojunction Photocatalysts for Efficient Sacrificial Hydrogen Production

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, a ‘single‐component’ organic semiconductor photocatalyst is presented in which a molecular donor is bonded to a polymer acceptor. The resultant material demonstrates exceptional photocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution in aqueous triethylamine with an outstanding external quantum efficiency of 38% at 420 nm.

Fermi Surface Nesting and Anomalous Hall Effect in Magnetically Frustrated Mn2PdIn

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mn2PdIn, a frustrated inverse Heusler alloy, showing electronic‐structure driven anomalous Hall effect with Weyl crossings, Fermi‐surface nesting and near‐zero magnetization ideal for low‐magnetization spintronics. Abstract Noncollinear magnets with near‐zero net magnetization and nontrivial bulk electronic topology hold significant promise for ...

Supraparticles Composed of Graphitic Carbon Nitride Nanoparticles and Silica‐Supported Horseradish Peroxidase as Customizable Hybrid Catalysts for Photo‐Biocatalytic Cascade Reactions in Continuous Flow

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Herein presented supraparticles combine the nanoparticulate photocatalyst graphitic carbon nitride with the enzyme horseradish peroxidase, which is immobilized on silica nanoparticles. In an optimized compatibility range, both catalysts operate effectively within the hybrid supraparticles and catalyze a cascade reaction consisting of the photocatalytic
