Innovation adoption by forward‐looking social learners
We build a model studying the effect of an economy's potential for social learning on the adoption of innovations of uncertain quality. Assuming consumers are forward‐looking (i.e., recognize the value of waiting for information), we analyze how qualitative and quantitative features of the learning environment affect equilibrium adoption dynamics ...

Estimating causes of maternal death in data‐sparse contexts
Understanding the underlying causes of maternal death across all regions of the world is essential to inform policies and resource allocation to reduce the mortality burden. However, in many countries there exists very little data on the causes of maternal death, and data that do exist do not capture the entire population at risk.

In the nonlinear regime, circular dichroism can appear even in achiral particles. A condition for its observation across a wide range of nanostructure shapes, materials, and incident vortex beams is derived. Utilizing these results, the condition for observing dichroism under vector beam illumination is established.

Background – Supplementation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) enables dose reduction of prednisolone and ciclosporin in canine atopic dermatitis (cAD). Objective – To determine if oral administration of PUFA can reduce the dose of oclacitinib for cAD. Conclusion – Oral supplementation of PUFA allowed dose reduction of oclacitinib and improved pVAS,

In this research, a new Ag(I) complex, namely, [Ag(5‐Chlorobenzimidazole)2NO3], has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV‐Vis, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The electronic behavior of the compounds were investigated with DFT method. Also, antioxidant and antidiabetic properties of the ligand and its Ag(I) complex were investigated.

A two‐stage solution method for the design problem of medium‐thick plates in steel plants
The design of the mother plate is an important part in the production process of a medium‐thick plate, which includes the combination of sub‐plates and the size design of plate. In this study, a multi‐objective model for medium‐thick plate design is proposed based on the 2D bin packing model.

Triflate's bigger brother: The unprecedented tribrate anion, [Br3CSO3]−
The tribromomethansulfonate anion (“tribrate”), [Br3CSO3]−, has been prepared for the first time. The anion is, up to now, the biggest brother of the well‐known triflate anion. Key step of the synthesis is the bromination of phenyl‐methanesulfonate by KOBr.

Willingness to pay for agricultural mechanization services by smallholder farmers in Malawi
Abstract One of the main barriers to adopting smallholder agricultural mechanization in developing countries is the mismatch between the economies of scale of machines and farm size. Private sector‐led mechanization services hold a promise to address this challenge, but there is a lack of evidence on demand for smallholder mechanization services.
