-expansion and improved tanh schemes. Ferromagnetic materials play a vital role in telecommunications applications, data storage, and manipulation. A new wave variable in the sense of confirmable fractional derivative is utilized to convert the governing model into the ordinary system. The motions of ultra-short-wave pulses in ferrite’s materials are analyzed by showing the effects of fractional derivatives and noise terms on the Brownian motion through multiple diverse 3D, 2D and contour plots. Periodic, singular periodic, kink, anti-kink etc. are visualized under the different parameter’s values involved in the obtained solitary wave solutions. The outcomes made available in the current study might play vital role to depict relevant intricate nonlinear phenomena and inspire the researchers to consider the utilized techniques in further studies.
The Factualist Interpretation of the Skeptical Solution and Semantic Primitivism
Authors: Wieczorkowski Michał 
Published: April 2024

AbstractAccording to the factualist interpretation, the skeptical solution to the skeptic’s problem hinges on rejecting inflationary accounts of semantic facts, advocating instead for the adoption of minimal factualism. However, according to Alexander Miller, this account is unsound. Miller argues that minimal factualism represents a form of semantic primitivism, a position expressly rejected by Kripke’s Wittgenstein. Furthermore, Miller states that minimal factualism presupposes the conformity of meaning ascriptions with rules of discipline and syntax. However, he contends that this maneuver is also undermined by Kripke’s skepticism. In this paper, I demonstrate that Miller’s arguments against minimal factualism are unsound. To achieve this goal, I argue that the minimalist account of semantic facts should not be equated with semantic primitivism. Moreover, I argue that statements regarding the conformity of meaning ascriptions are either beside the criticism of Kripke’s skeptic or should be interpreted from the perspective of the account on assertibility offered by the skeptical solution. On this basis, I conclude that the factualist interpretation provides a conducive environment for solving the problem posed by Kripke’s skeptic.

AbstractCarbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies play an essential role in achieving Net Zero Emissions targets. Considering the lack of timely reviews on the recent advancements in promising CCUS technologies, it is crucial to provide a prompt review of the CCUS advances to understand the current research gaps pertained to its industrial application. To that end, this review first summarized the developmental history of CCUS technologies and the current large-scale demonstrations. Then, based on a visually bibliometric analysis, the carbon capture remains a hotspot in the CCUS development. Noting that the materials applied in the carbon capture process determines its performance. As a result, the state-of-the-art carbon capture materials and emerging capture technologies were comprehensively summarized and discussed. Gaps between state-of-art carbon capture process and its ideal counterpart are analyzed, and insights into the research needs such as material design, process optimization, environmental impact, and technical and economic assessments are provided.
Why does advertising work? exploring the neural mechanism of concreteness and emotional effects of donation advertising slogans
Authors: Zhang Dianyuan , Yao Jie , Han Wenhao 
Published: April 2024

AbstractAdvertising is methods to encourage donations, and text is one of the most crucial fundamental elements in advertising. Therefore, we chose advertising slogans as the focus of this study. The main goal of this research is to investigate how the emotional and concrete aspects of advertising slogans can impact information processing procedures and neural mechanisms, ultimately influencing advertising effectiveness. We conducted a two-factor experiment with a 2 × 2 design, using the ERPs experimental paradigm. The results reveal that slogans with an emotionally positive appeal outperformed in terms of advertising memory (recognition response time) and audience intention (liking, acting, and sharing). Emotional-negative advertising slogans performed better in eliciting early attention (P1). Concrete advertising slogans excelled in enhancing advertising memory (recognition response time, correct recognition rate), as well as in the later stages of information processing stage (N400 and LPC). Furthermore, abstract advertising slogans performed better in capturing early attention (P2) and influencing action intention. We introduce a framework comprising five distinct phases for individuals to process the advertising slogans and emphasize the foundational role of emotions in individual cognition and the processing of advertising. These findings uncover the underlying mechanism behind the effectiveness of donation advertising and provide valuable insights for the design of philanthropic advertising practices.

Published: April 2024

AbstractTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly heterogeneous tumor lacking estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression. It has higher aggressiveness and metastasis than other subtypes, with limited effective therapeutic strategies, leading to a poor prognosis. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is prevalently over-activated in human cancers and contributes to breast cancer (BC) growth, survival, proliferation, and angiogenesis, which could be an interesting therapeutic target. This review summarizes the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway activation mechanism in TNBC and discusses the relationship between its activation and various TNBC subtypes. We also report the latest clinical studies on kinase inhibitors related to this pathway for treating TNBC. Our review discusses the issues that need to be addressed in the clinical application of these inhibitors.
Restored Wetland Size and Age Influence Small Mammal Communities in West Virginia, USA

Published: April 2024

AbstractSmall mammals are important, albeit often overlooked, fauna in wetland restoration projects. However, it is essential to evaluate factors that influence small mammal community metrics in restored wetlands to maximize wetland restoration effectiveness. Previous studies found that vegetation differed as restored wetlands aged and that wetland age may play a role in the presence of amphibians and birds. Therefore, we assessed whether wetland age influenced small mammals. We also evaluated 17 environmental factors in restored wetlands that could influence small mammal communities in these wetlands. To assess and evaluate the effects of age and environmental factors on the small mammal community, we appraised 14 restored wetlands in West Virginia, USA, in the summers of 2020 and 2021 for small mammal community metrics, specifically relative abundance, diversity, richness, and evenness. We captured six species of small mammals: deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus), meadow voles (Microtus pennsylvanicus), meadow jumping mice (Zapus hudsonius), northern short-tailed shrews (Blarina brevicauda), and eastern chipmunks (Tamias striatus). We found that the relative abundance of deer mice, white-footed mice, and meadow voles decreased with wetland age. However, both species diversity and evenness increased with wetland age. Wetland size influenced the relative abundance of white-footed mice, meadow jumping mice, and all small mammals combined. Although the relative abundance of white-footed mice and total small mammals decreased with wetland size, the relative abundance of meadow jumping mice increased with wetland size. Wetland managers should consider wetland age and size when designing wetlands to facilitate small mammal communities.
Uncovering Digital Platforms’ Ethics and Politics: The Case of Airbnb
Authors: Spier Shaked 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThe paper deploys the disclosive computer ethics (DCE) approach to reconstruct the ethics and politics of one of the sharing economy’s flagships—Airbnb. I investigate Airbnb’s technical design to identify the moral and political values that are embedded in the platform’s technology. I then analyze the platform’s ethics and politics towards a generalization of relevant ethical and political aspects by reconnecting them to the mechanisms, operations, rationales, and ideologies of the sharing economy in general. The paper contributes to the existing literature by linking between the ethics and politics of digital platforms and their technical design, using the case study of Airbnb. Additionally, it explores Airbnb as a specific platform technology with unique ethical and political values. Thus, the paper refutes the neutrality thesis and similar claims made by sharing economy platforms. Finally, the paper makes a methodological contribution to the literature on the ethics and politics of technology. It develops a practical DCE research methodology for uncovering the values, ethics, and politics of digital technologies.

Published: April 2024

AbstractThe objective of this study was to elucidate the intricate interplay among miR-105–1, kisspeptin, and their synergistic influence on basic ovarian granulosa cell functions. The effects of miR-105–1 mimics or miR-105–1 inhibitor, kisspeptin (0, 1, and 10 ng/ml), and its combinations with miR-105–1 mimics on porcine granulosa cells were assessed. The expression levels of miR-105–1, viability, proliferation (accumulation of PCNA, cyclin B1, XTT-, and BrdU-positive cells), apoptosis (accumulation of bcl-2, bax, caspase 3, p53, TUNEL-positive cells), proportion of kisspeptin-positive cells, and the release of steroid hormones and IGF-I were analyzed. Transfection of cells with miR-105–1 mimics promoted cell viability and proliferation, the occurrence of kisspeptin, and the release of progesterone and IGF-I; in contrast, miR-105–1 mimics inhibited apoptosis and estradiol output. MiR-105–1 inhibitor had the opposite effect. Kisspeptin amplified the expression of miR-105–1, cell viability, proliferation, steroid hormones, and IGF‐I release and reduced apoptosis. Furthermore, the collaborative action of miR-105–1 mimics and kisspeptin revealed a synergistic relationship wherein miR-105–1 mimics predominantly supported the actions of kisspeptin, while kisspeptin exhibited a dual role in modulating the effects of miR-105–1 mimics. These findings not only affirm the pivotal role of kisspeptin in regulating basic ovarian cell functions but also represent the inaugural evidence underscoring the significance of miR-105–1 in this regulatory framework. Additionally, our results show the ability of kisspeptin to promote miR-105–1 expression and the ability of miR‐105–1 to promote the occurrence and effects of kisspeptin and, therefore, indicate the existence of the self‐stimulating kisspeptin‐miR‐105–1 axis.
Die psychologische Bedeutung des Romans. Phänomenologische Anmerkungen zur Literaturpsychologie
Authors: Wendt Alexander Nicolai , Müller Janis 
Published: April 2024

ZusammenfassungEine methodologische Antwort auf die Frage, welche Bedeutung der Roman für die empirische Psychologie hat, lässt sich in der Literaturpsychologie suchen, nach der Texte entweder als Verhaltensdaten behandelt oder inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet werden können. Zur Bestimmung eines spezifischen Unterschieds zu anderen Textgattungen reicht diese Perspektive allerdings nicht aus. Um die psychologische Bedeutung des Romans zu begreifen, ist es notwendig, seine wesentlichen Eigenheiten zu bestimmen. Äußerliche Merkmale können nicht ausreichen, dem Roman als Roman gerecht zu werden, stattdessen bedarf es einer innerlichen Bestimmung, einer Phänomenologie des Romans. Die fiktionale Welt, die sich im Roman entwirft, ist in einer eigenen Struktur konstituiert. Ein Roman ist weder die bloße Aneinanderreihung von Ereignissen noch ein akkurater wohl formulierter Informationsbericht. Er ist ein Kunstwerk, das eine eigene Welt erschafft, in welcher der lesende Geist zu neuen Erkenntnissen voranschreiten kann. Das literaturschaffende Genie versetzt das lesende Subjekt in die Perspektiven der Figuren. Hier wird das Subjekt konfrontiert mit den Wertgefügen innerhalb der Romanwelt. Auf diesem Wege kann der lesende Geist zu Erfahrungen gelangen, die ihm sonst verborgen bleiben würden. Der Roman ist für die Psychologie eine methodologische Herausforderung, aber zugleich auch eine Gelegenheit. Um die psychologische Bedeutung des Romans verständlich zu machen, müssen Theorien der Werterfahrung, der Narrativität und der Einbildungskraft zum Thema werden.
Green extraction of anthocyanins from Syzygium cumini fruit pulp using aqueous glycerol through ultrasound-assisted extraction
Authors: Kaur Darshanjot , Qadri Ovais Shafiq 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Aqueous glycerol is a proposed green extractant for anthocyanins and polyphenols as an alternative to conventional solvents. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential use of aqueous glycerol to extract anthocyanins from Syzygium cumini fruit pulp with high yields. The ultrasound-assisted extraction process was also examined to enhance the extraction yield. The application of ultrasound-assisted extraction along with glycerol as a modifier remarkably enhanced the extraction of anthocyanins compared to the conventional extraction. Aqueous glycerol (70%) was screened against conventional solvents (ethanol, methanol and water), where glycerol showed promising outcomes. The optimised ultrasonication time and extraction temperature (25 °C for 5 min) were selected based on our previous study of NADESs. The results showed that glycerol gave the highest amount of anthocyanin content (201.05 mg C3G/100 g fresh weight) compared to conventional solvents for retrieving anthocyanins from S. cumini fruit pulp. Besides the anthocyanin content, the extract yield, phenolic content, and antioxidant activities using DPPH and FRAP were also determined. Glycerol showed a higher phenolic recovery (0.9 mg GAE/g dry sample), resulting in higher antioxidant activity (DPPH activity-73.35% inhibition). Therefore, the application of UAE with aqueous glycerol provides accessibility and enhanced anthocyanin extraction efficiency, thus fulfilling the green and sustainable approach to anthocyanin extraction.
Population, Climate Change and the Philosopher’s Message
Authors: Stanbury Craig 
Published: April 2024

AbstractPopulation size is a significant variable that can be addressed to help combat climate change. If global fertility rates dropped by only 0.5 births per woman, almost a third of the emissions needed to avoid catastrophic climate change could be saved. This is equivalent to the annual emissions that would be saved from doubling the fuel efficiency of cars, increasing wind energy 50-fold or improving nuclear energy three times over. It accounts for over half of the Earth’s yearly emissions. Yet, is there a way to address population size without violating human rights? To what extent should individual reproductive practices change? These are live questions. However, various philosophers claim that procreators should limit themselves to having no more than one child. Doing so, they say, strikes the most appropriate balance between protecting reproductive justice for people who want to have children and achieving a sustainable future.This paper pushes back on this claim. There are plausibly too many sexist, racist, classist and eugenic outcomes in demanding people limit their procreation to one child. Therefore, philosophers should relax their messaging about permissibility limits and be more concerned with helping people cultivate the right character to think through procreation and overpopulation.
One British Archive: Seeing the Rev. John Clifford Archives and the Gender of Passive Resistance
Authors: Koven Seth 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThis article discusses the archives of Westbourne Park Baptist Church in London and its world-renowned pastor in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Dr. John Clifford. As leader of the National Passive Resistance League, the fiery Clifford came to be synonymous with the Nonconformist conscience at the height of its political influence in the early twentieth century. The article foregrounds the tension between what I call archival intimacy and archival precarity, while analyzing the power of seeing the diverse photographs in this collection as evidence of the gendered politics of passive resistance in the early twentieth century. Some— though not all—of the collection that I consulted at Westbourne Park Baptist Church in 2016 has now been transferred to the Angus Library, Regent's Park College, Oxford.

Abstract
We present a quantitative ground-penetrating radar (GPR) analysis of the Lower Calderone Glacieret to highlight the recent evolution of one of the southernmost glacial systems in Europe. The Upper and Lower Calderone Glacierets are the last two perennial ice bodies in the Apennine Mountains (Italy), and their continuous monitoring is important for glaciology, hydrology and climate science. We applied a proprietary auto-picking algorithm to track reflections accurately and objectively within three pseudo-3-D GPR data sets that were acquired over the Lower Glacieret in different years. After the time-to-depth conversion, the basal reflections were projected onto the normal versors of a 3-D topographic model of the survey area, at the different GPR trace positions. We then applied an Adjusted Inverse-Distance Weighted Spatial Interpolation method to extrapolate the ice-bedrock interface within the areas not directly covered by the GPR profiles and compare it with the topographic surface to recover the glacieret volume. In this paper, we critically examine the accuracy of the reconstructed models, including possible issues related to the challenging survey areas, such as local artifacts in the interpolated interface caused by irregular GPR coverage. We further discuss the various advantages of the implemented procedure with respect to more traditional glacier monitoring techniques.

Abstract
The interaction of focused high power laser beam with solid targets leads to acceleration of charged particles among other by non-linear effects in the plasma. In this experiment, the hot electrons are characterized from the interaction of sub-nanosecond and kilo-joule class laser pulse with thin metal foil targets (Cu, Ta, Ti, Sn, Pb). The energy distribution functions of electrons were measured by angularly resolved multichannel electron spectrometer. The hot electron temperatures were observed in range from 30 to 80 keV for laser intensities between

${\sim}10^{15}$

and

$3 \times 10^{16}\ \mathrm{W\,cm^{-2}}$

. The measured energy distribution and electron temperature were compared with published results and known scaling laws at higher laser intensities. For foil targets of different materials, the temperature and flux of hot electrons were scaled with target thickness in the range of 1–100

$\unicode{x03BC}\mathrm{m}$

from low Z to high Z materials where Z is the atomic number. The profile of conversion efficiency from laser energy to hot electrons is discussed in the energy range from 100 to 600 J. For the given laser and target parameters, the nonlinear behaviour of conversion efficiency and relevant physics are also described in detail.
How Local Context Affects Populist Radical Right Support: A Cross-National Investigation Into Mediated and Moderated Relationships

AbstractPopulist radical right (PRR) parties are often more successful in some regions of their countries than in others. However, previous research shows that the relationship between context and PRR support is not straightforward. We develop and test an expanded framework linking local conditions to PRR support through two causal mechanisms. First, we argue economic and cultural contextual factors can influence citizens by fostering a sense of perceived local decline, which in turn predicts both populist and nativist attitudes and, hence, PRR support (mediation). Second, we expect that citizens with fewer resources and stronger local embeddedness are more strongly influenced by the context in which they live (moderation). Combining geocoded survey data with contextual data from four countries (DE, FR, GB and NL), we show that the link between local context and PRR support is indeed mediated and moderated, providing a better understanding of the spatial distribution behind recent PRR success.
