The Frontiersmen as an Object of Czech Nationalism 1918–1935

open access: yesStudies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the phenomenon of the frontiersmen, that is, the Czech minority border communities, as a part of the discourse of the Czech nationalist movement. Via the example of the Czechoslovak National Democracy party, it traces the frontiersmen on two levels.

Diffusion of Carbamazepine in Hydrophobic Zeolites: A Comparative Study Using Classical and Machine‐Learned Potentials

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 26, 11 July 2026.
Can hydrophobic, shape‐selective zeolites efficiently remove the persistent pharmaceutical CBZ from water? This work moves beyond the static picture of interaction energies by modeling diffusion with umbrella sampling and machine‐learned potentials. Even high intrinsic diffusion barriers can be overcome through exergonic adsorption from water, yielding

Max Planck (1858–1947): A Revolutionary Against His Will

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
Max Planck (1848–1947) in 1937. Photograph by Tita Binz. Archive of the Max Planck Society, Berlin. ABSTRACT We examine Max Planck's pivotal role in the emergence of quantum physics and the paradoxical nature of his legacy. Planck's derivation of the black‐body radiation law in 1900 and his introduction of the quantum of action, h, initiated a profound

‘If they can’t see a punishment, they’re not happy’: Punitive Attitudes as Barriers to Restorative Practice in New Zealand Schools

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
This article analyses the experiences of using restorative practice of New Zealand school staff, from primary and secondary schools in the Wellington region. With data collected from 12 participants in semi‐structured qualitative interviews, it examines the barriers to restorative practice in New Zealand schools.

Resilient Flow Regimes in the Rio Grande—Río Bravo Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 1038-1053, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Water is essential for human development and is an indispensable resource for economic activity and a country's growth. However, current water practices, along with increasing land‐use change, climate change, and agricultural practices, have significantly altered the hydrological cycle and water availability.

Maxwell’s Demon and Comoving Observers in General Relativity: What Do They Have in Common?

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
We elaborate on the similarities between the explanation of the well known Maxwell’s demon paradox, based on the theory of information, and the rationale behind the fact that real dissipative (entropy producing) processes may be detected by non–comoving ...

The evidence for old age motor neuron death: A scoping review

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, June 2026.
We systematically evaluated the extant literature on age‐related motor neuron (MN) death in aging, focusing on studies directly assessing MNs. We show that in the spinal cord and brainstem, there is robust evidence for MN loss, particularly in the human spinal cord. In rats, MN loss was readily observed across a variety of labelling methods and regions,

Experimental methods in chemical engineering: Atomic absorption spectrometry—AAS

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page 2206-2224, May 2026.
Abstract Elements absorb electromagnetic radiation (light) of a specific wavelength in proportion to the number of atoms in its path. As the atoms absorb this light energy, electrons rise from the ground state to an excited state. In atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), high temperatures produce clouds of atoms from the sample (atomization) and ...

Electrical Maxwell demon and Szilard engine utilizing Johnson noise, measurement, logic and control. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We introduce a purely electrical version of Maxwell's demon which does not involve mechanically moving parts such as trapdoors, etc. It consists of a capacitor, resistors, amplifiers, logic circuitry and electronically controlled switches and uses ...
