The Legal Implications Arising from Economic and Social Reconstruction as an Aspect of Peace Support Operations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This article asserts that the link between peace and security and stabilization and development, as exemplified by the UN-mandated international presences in Afghanistan, is to be welcomed but that, from the perspective of the laws governing both the use

Asymmetric Dual‐Electron Bridge Via Gradient Orbital Coupling for Robust Alkaline Oxygen Evolution in Low‐Iridium Water Electrolysis

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The engineered IrOx/FeEu‐NiTex composite, with ultralow Eu (0.72 at%) and Ir (0.14 at%) content, harnesses an asymmetric dual‐electron‐bridge structure (Ni 3d–O 2p–Eu 4f, Ni 3d–O 2p–Ir 5d) for gradient orbital coupling. This unique architecture delivers superior and robust alkaline oxygen evolution activity, enabling efficient low‐iridium water ...

Die deutschen Provincial Reconstruction Teams: ein neues Instrument zum Nation-Building

open access: yes, 2005
'Die erstmals Anfang 2003 von den USA in Afghanistan eingesetzten 'Provincial Reconstruction Teams' (PRTs) sind ein neues Instrument der Internationalen Gemeinschaft zur Unterstützung des Peace-, Nation- und State-Building in Post-Konflikt-Gesellschaften. Eine deutsche Variante ist seit Ende 2003 in Kunduz und Feyzabad im Einsatz.

Nickel‐Catalyzed LiF‐Rich Interface for Silicon Anodes

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Modulating the decomposition of F‐containing species in the electrolyte to form LiF‐rich SEI has been proven to be an effective strategy for interface optimization. Herein, through nickel‐catalyzed pyrolysis of carbon precursors on silicon, graphene‐like carbon was formed to construct three‐dimensional conductive networks.

The “Magic” of Conflict: How Participatory Governance Can Enable Transformative Climate Adaptation

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In many cases, addressing climate risks requires transformative climate adaptation (TCA) that goes beyond small adjustments to existing systems. While scholars increasingly argue that participatory governance is key and should embrace conflict rather than push for consensus to enable TCA, this assumption remains underexplored.

Peptide RL‐QN15 Regulates Functions of Epidermal Stem Cells to Accelerate Skin Wound Regeneration via the FZD8/β‐Catenin Axis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Amphibian‐derived peptide RL‐QN15 activates the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway by interacting with the FZD8 membrane receptor, promoting epidermal stem cells proliferation, migration, stemness, and EMT processes, thus promoting skin wound healing.

Programmable crack dynamics engineering enables flexible strain sensors with high linearity

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
First‐decoupling theoretical framework of crack evolution elucidating the control methods, mechanistic insights, and structure‐activity relationships is established. Crack propagation from uncontrollable randomness systematically evolves into spatially ordered states.
