The Frontiersmen as an Object of Czech Nationalism 1918–1935
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.

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
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

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
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?
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
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
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]
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 ...
