Evidence consistent with local adaptation to predation shaping stabilizing effects underlying local coexistence

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Trait divergence in resource use and susceptibility to predation can promote local competitor coexistence if such divergence generates demographic advantages when species are rare, producing frequency‐dependent stabilizing effects. These effects may vary spatially as populations experience different ecological conditions shaping species ...

Uncertainty Quantification of Analytical Solutions for the Nonlinear Space and Time Fractional Order ϕ4$$ {\phi}^4 $$ Equation Under Fuzziness

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Analytical fuzzy soliton solutions of a modified space–time fractional ϕ4$$ {\phi}^4 $$ model are derived using EHFM, capturing memory effects and uncertainty. Results reveal diverse wave structures and show how fractional order and fuzziness significantly influence soliton amplitude, localization, and propagation, with heightened sensitivity near the ...

Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

InfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

Gubernatorial Re‐Election Incentives, Local Investment Bias, and Pension Fund Performance

Journal of Corporate Accounting &Finance, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 213-234, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of gubernatorial re‐election incentive and political factors on US public pension funds from 1990 to 2022. Our empirical analysis finds no significant overall relationship between gubernatorial re‐election incentives and local bias in the full sample.

How Long Is the Coast of Quantum Chemistry? Or, How to Evaluate Density Functional Theory as a Scientific Revolution

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
Within quantum chemistry, density functional theory (DFT) is a revolution. This serves as an example of a multitude of other scientific events, supporting the idea that revolutions are always large, if observed with the appropriate magnification. ABSTRACT Distinguishing scientific revolutions from normal science is a subjective, conflicting matter ...

A Dialogue on Revolutions and Revolutionaries in Science: A Perspective From Quantum Mechanics

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We discuss the notions of scientific revolutions and revolutionaries in the context of the Relativity Revolution and of the First, Second, and Third Quantum Revolutions. We conclude that at the core of the question of what qualifies as a revolution and revolutionary is an assessment of the gradients of knowledge accumulation over time, both at
