On the negative squares of indefinite Sturm–Liouville operators
Sturm--Liouville operators on the half-line \(x>0\) are studied. The number of negative squares of all self-adjoint extensions of a simple symmetric operator of defect one with finitely many negative squares is characterized in terms of the behaviour of an abstract Titchmarsh--Weyl function near \(0\) and \(\infty\).

A Perspective of Multi‐Reflecting TOF MS
ABSTRACT Time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (TOF MS) excels in rapid and high‐sensitivity analysis, making it a cornerstone of analytical chemistry. But as sample complexity explodes in omics studies, so does the need for higher resolving power to ensure accurate results.
