Who Is the System? On the Externalisation and Depersonalisation of Responsibility for Abuse

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the externalisation and depersonalisation of responsibility in the institutional communication of the Roman Catholic Church in the context of sexualised violence. Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems is used to show how semantic constructions such as ‘systemic causes’ rhetorically blur responsibility and contribute ...

Ab Initio Benchmarking on Unsupported and Coronene‐Supported Silver Atomic Clusters: Interplay Between Jahn–Teller Distortions and Fluxionality

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
The article presents a benchmark study using state‐of‐the‐art high‐level ab initio methodologies to predict infrared and Raman frequencies of subnanometric metal clusters. The importance of characterizing conical intersections in their potential energy landscapes is also highlighted, with the associated (Pseudo‐)Jahn–Teller distortions of cluster ...

Enhancing Open‐Circuit Voltage and Fill Factor in Sn‐Based Perovskite Solar Cells: Challenges and Opportunities for Sustainable Photovoltaics

open access: yesSusMat, EarlyView.
This review summarizes advances in tin (Sn)‐based perovskite solar cells, a promising lead‐free alternative. It examines the main causes of Voc and fill factor losses, including Sn2+ oxidation, undercoordinated sites, and deep‐level traps. Strategies such as molecular coordination, surface passivation, compositional tuning, interface engineering, and ...
