ϕ-dwarfs: white dwarfs probe quadratically coupled scalars

Journal of High Energy Physics
We study ultralight scalar fields with quadratic couplings to Standard-Model fermions and derive strong constraints from white-dwarf mass-radius data. Such couplings source scalar profiles inside compact stars, shift fermion masses, and can produce a new

Do Single‐Sex STEM Programs Have Merit? If So, for Whom, on What Measures?

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single‐sex STEM programs—defined here as voluntary, gender‐segregated extracurricular or supplemental activities (e.g., summer camps, workshops, robotics clubs, internships, or citizen science initiatives)—have experienced heightened popularity and scrutiny amid efforts to increase diversity in STEM fields.

Stellar Cycle and Evolution of Polar Spots in an M+WD Binary

The Astrophysical Journal
Stellar activity cycles reveal continuous relaxation and induction of magnetic fields. The activity cycle is typically traced through the observation of cyclic variations in total brightness or Ca H&K emission flux of stars, as well as cyclic variations ...

Environmental, Social and Governance Strategies for Sustainable Development Goal 3: Enhancing Health and Social Wellbeing

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The discourse on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategies is growing, yet its ability to meaningfully advance health and social wellbeing (H&SW) in line with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 3) remains under‐examined. Existing studies assume that ESG automatically strengthens SDG 3 outcomes, yet how the Governance

Illegal Gold Mining in the Brazilian Amazon: Environmental Degradation in Yanomami Indigenous Lands, and Regulatory Failures

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Illegal gold mining has emerged as a major sustainability threat in the Amazon, eroding Indigenous rights, forest integrity, and climate mitigation efforts. This study examines how international market incentives relate to the expansion of illegal mining and associated deforestation within the Yanomami Indigenous Territory (YIT) from 2008 to ...

Fragmentation Across Scales, Geography, and Climate Challenges in European Urban Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Research: A Bibliometric and Systematic Review

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European urban climate change research lacks integration across scales, geography, and climate challenges, despite Europe's coordinated policy frameworks. Through a hybrid bibliometric and systematic review of 1528 studies (2010–2025) using Cortext Manager and PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this study maps the conceptual patterns, knowledge gaps, and

Bias in, symbolic compliance out? GPT's reliance on gender and race in strategic evaluations

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research summary Organizations are increasingly using large language models (LLMs) to support strategic evaluations. We examine whether and how these systems rely on gender and race. We asked GPT to evaluate identical startup pitches varying only the founder's name, shaping gender and race perceptions.

Suppress Ru Over‐Oxidation Through Oxygen Vacancy Engineering – Showcase With Ni‐Modified RuO2 via Molten‐Salt Synthesis

Small, EarlyView.
Competitive OER catalyst for H2O splitting without using Ir is a luxury wish; Ru is an active element to do the job but often does not hold long. See how those scientists managed the task with Ni modified RuO2 suppressing Ru over‐oxidation through Oxygen Vacancy Engineering.

Questioning Your Brilliance in Physics: Differential Shifts in Fixed Mindsets by Grade and Gender

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Students' domain‐specific mindsets and their beliefs about their capacity to improve through effort play a crucial role in shaping their experiences and decisions to persist in STEM disciplines. Physics is generally seen as a field requiring innate brilliance, which can reinforce fixed mindsets, particularly after initial setbacks in ...

It's Not You, It's the System: Women Professors in TESOL and the Persistence of Gender Bias

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Although progress has been made with respect to the role and position of women in academia, overt and covert discrimination as well as structural and systemic bias persist. In this article, we report on research conducted with 14 women professors from 10 different countries to explore to what extent these issues affect women professors in ...
