In situ formation of surface-functionalized ionic calcium carbonate nanoparticles with liquid-like behaviours and their electrical properties [PDF]
This paper reports a new route to synthesize calcium carbonate (CaCO3)-based nanoscale ionic materials (NIMs) via an in situ formation method to form the CaCO3 nanoparticles with a polysiloxane quaternary ammonium salt (PQAC) corona (PQAC-CaCO3 ...

A node-based informed modularity strategy to identify organizational modules in anatomical networks
The study of morphological modularity using anatomical networks is growing in recent years. A common strategy to find the best network partition uses community detection algorithms that optimize the modularity Q function.

A circular Nim game is a two player impartial combinatorial game consisting of $n$ stacks of tokens placed in a circle. A move consists of choosing $k$ consecutive stacks, and taking at least one token from one or more of the $k$ stacks. The last player able to make a move wins. We prove results on the structure of the losing positions for small $n$
