A crucible of competition and cooperation: Where do the concepts fit in recreation activity delivery? [PDF]
The prevailing use of competitive activities in leisure, sport and recreation continues to inspire debate as people question the value, influence and outcomes of competitive behaviour for participants.

A strategy of sieving catalysis based on the MIL‐101(Cr) with multistage pore structure and Lewis acid sites has been proposed as the catalyst to accelerate the kinetics of desolvation and redox conversion of sulfur species, achieving high performance Mg‐S batteries.

Estimating the Recreation Value of Ecosystems by Using a Travel Cost Method Approach [PDF]
Recreation is one of the ecosystem’s secondary values of a well conserved natural ecosystem, associated with the direct use individuals make of these natural assets.

Double Helical Plasmonic Antennas
Plasmonic double helical antennas funnel circularly polarized light to the nanoscale, offering strong chiroptical interaction and directional light emission. Extending a single helix design tool, this study combines numerical modeling with experimental validation, revealing large, broadband dissymmetry factors in the visible range.

A Tangent Category Perspective on Connections in Algebraic Geometry [PDF]
There is an abstract notion of connection in any tangent category. In this paper, we show that when applied to the tangent category of affine schemes, this recreates the classical notion of a connection on a module (and similarly, in the tangent category of schemes, this recreates the notion of connection on a quasi-coherent sheaf of modules).

Microneedle‐assisted RA therapy with MC complexes in CCMNP effectively treats cartilage degradation and synovitis without visceral damage. The dual capability in therapeutic intervention and in situ monitoring inflammation through local pH and ROS levels facilitates the dynamic adjustment of treatment protocols and represents a paradigm shift in the RA
