Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Electric utilities are expected to implement measures to improve their performance in all three dimensions of sustainable development—environmental, social, and economic. While several studies have investigated the environmental dimension, measures related to the social pillar have hardly been researched to date.

Laser‐Assisted In Situ Fabrication of rGO/Bi2O3 Nanocomposites for Heavy Metal Sensing
Small, EarlyView.Rapid CO2 laser irradiation drives the in situ formation of Bi2O3 nanoplatelets within reduced graphene oxide, yielding flexible, reproducible electrodes with excellent stripping voltammetric performance toward trace heavy metals. ABSTRACT In this work, we introduce a laser‐assisted approach to synthesize reduced graphene oxide/bismuth oxide (III) (rGO/

Small, EarlyView.This study reveals how a zirconium‐based metal–organic framework (UiO‐66) stabilizes copper species during CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. Operando X‐ray spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and theory show that zinc promotes highly dispersed copper and suppresses particle growth, while the framework dynamically responds to reaction intermediates.

Small, EarlyView.A magnetic stimulation platform for the remote stimulation of cells is presented, consisting of a magnetic stimulator and magnetic microspheres. Skeletal muscle cells are labeled with magnetic microspheres, which act as local magnetic actuators on the cells upon application of the magnetic field.

Small, EarlyView.Thermo‐responsive granular hydrogels (TRGHs), composed of microparticles and an interstitial matrix, exhibit thermo‐responsive mechanical properties and allow cell infiltration. This system effectively addresses the conventional compromise between mechanical strength and porosity observed in granular hydrogels.

Small, EarlyView.This study reports a self‐powered broadband photodetector based on compositionally tuned p‐(CuS)x(ZnSe)1−x/p‐Si isotype heterojunctions. Increasing the CuS ratio improved the film crystallinity and produced a denser, more homogeneous nanopillar morphology, enhancing light absorption.

[Au4(dppb)3]2+ – A Planar Gold Cluster with Bright Excitation Wavelength Dependent Emission
Small, EarlyView.The first planar [Au4]2+ cluster with a deltoid geometry displays red to near‐infrared emission tunable from 700 to 918 nm. A quantum yield of 17% is observed at 770 nm upon 375 nm excitation. Excitation‐wavelength‐dependent shifts in emission reveal the involvement of multiple excited states, highlighting unprecedented photophysical versatility in ...

Exploring sources of uncertainty in the estimate of waterfowl harvest in the United Kingdom
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.There is an urgent need to gather data on harvest rates of waterbirds in Europe to assess the sustainability of hunting. Estimates of total waterbird harvest in the United Kingdom (UK) and the relative harvest of different huntable species come from two separate surveys, the Value of Shooting (PACEC 2014) and National Gamebag Census (NGC), and these ...

Rare Lightning and Convection Characteristics During Two Successive Tornadoes in Southern China
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Systematic investigations into lightning characteristics of tornado storms in China remain scarce. This study comprehensively analyses rare lightning behaviour and overshooting top characteristics for two successive tornadoes during a long‐lived supercell in southern China on 27 April 2024.
