Transition Metal Compounds as Thermochromic Materials: Classification, Properties, Limitations, and Applications

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines how different transition metal compounds—such as binary and multinary metal oxides, halides, sulfides, and salts—exhibit thermochromism based on the d‐electron configurations of their transition metal cations. It focuses on three main mechanisms of thermochromism: phase transition, charge transfer, and bandgap change.

The Relevance of Apology to Reparations for Historical Injustice

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Infant frontal alpha asymmetry predicts social attention and transdiagnostic risk for emotional reactivity

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Differences in Frontal Alpha Asymmetry (FAA), derived from the electroencephalogram (EEG), have been associated with approach‐withdrawal behavior, although inconsistently. The current study examined how early patterns of FAA during the first 2 years of life relate to various socioemotional characteristics (at 2 years) and ultimately

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Young children with emerging mental health problems and neurodevelopmental differences often do not receive the support they need early in life, and if they do receive support, it may not be appropriately targeted towards their individual needs.

A Test Function Method for Weakly Coupled Systems With Derivative‐Type Nonlinearity

Mathematische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider a two by two system of inequalities which include fractional powers of the Laplace operator, coupled through a semilinear term of derivative type. We prove the nonexistence of global‐in‐time weak solutions for powers below the critical curve and possibly on the critical curve.

The Brand‐New Overestimation Effect: Materialism and Identity Misforecasting As Cognitive Barriers to Second‐Hand Consumption
