TwinX shows how a single interbody wire connecting two robots can support both integrated morphological reconfiguration and distributed wire‐mediated cooperation. When the robots dock, they reconfigure into different forms for locomotion and manipulation.

Methane Activation by B5+ Toward a CB5H2+ Isomer Containing a Planar Tetracoordinate Carbon Atom
Methane activation by B5+ yields CB5H2+ through H2 elimination. Electronic‐structure calculations connect the nascent dehydrogenation product to a low‐lying isomer containing a planar tetracoordinate carbon atom. ABSTRACT Planar tetracoordinate carbon (ptC) motifs have been identified predominantly in the global‐minimum structures of gas‐phase clusters

Graph Neural Network‐Based Reinforcement Learning for Decentralized Multi‐Robot Manipulation
Robot arms lifting a large object face a trade‐off: centralized controllers explode in parameters, while decentralized ones cannot coordinate. A GNN resolves this—each arm runs its own network but acts on the full team state, achieving centralized‐level coordination with decentralized execution. Trained across team sizes, a single policy scales to four‐

A Mechanical sp2‐Jail for C60 Fullerene
A rigid bisporphyrin receptor with an exceptionally compact 3D cavity functions as a molecular “mechanical jail”, tightly enclosing C60 fullerene. Near‐perfect shape complementarity affords ultrahigh binding affinity while imposing a large kinetic barrier for guest exchange, rendering encapsulation effectively irreversible under ambient conditions ...

Premium subsidy designs and crowding out of insurance demand
Abstract Crop insurance is an important instrument to protect farmers against extreme weather events. Many countries provide subsidies for crop insurance products to make insurance more affordable for farmers. The Federal Crop Insurance Program in the United States and major European crop insurance programs such as in Spain, Italy, and France focus on ...

Income sharing for common pool resources with uncertain productivity
Abstract We address the interconnected issues of externalities in the use of a natural common‐pool resource system and adverse effects of environmental uncertainty on risk‐averse resource users. We set up a simple analytical model and derive conditions such that insurance by means of an income sharing mechanism mitigates externalities and hence ...
