Published: June 2022

AbstractPolicymakers face a daunting task when it comes to achieving sustainable environmental development and avoiding additional environmental degradation. This study examines the significance of green technology innovation and green financing in creating a more sustainable environment. The impact of green technology innovation and green investment on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions has yet to be empirically and theoretically examined in the literature, especially in conjunction with a moderating component, particularly social globalisation. Accordingly, this research examines the role of green technological innovation and green financing in reducing CO2 emissions in the G7 countries. Our study uses empirical research data from a panel of the G7 countries covering the period 1995 to 2019. We employ advanced panel approaches to address panel data analysis concerns, such as cross‐sectional dependence, structural break, and slope heterogeneity (the Banerjee and Carrion‐i‐Silvestre unit root and cointegration test and cross‐sectional augmented ARDL). This study shows that green technology innovation (GINV) as well as green financing (GFIN) have a negative but significant impact on CO2 emissions. Whilst economic growth has shown a positive and significant impact on CO2 emissions in the G7 countries, social globalisation positively moderates the relationship between CO2 emissions and GDP, but negatively and significantly causes GFIN and GINV with CO2 emissions amongst the G7 countries. According to our study, countries would be able to meet the United Nations' SDG‐7 and SDG‐13 targets if they implemented green financing and green technology policies.
Agency in physiological dynamics

AbstractWith a view to finding new applications of biomedical system dynamics, this article expands upon on our talk at the 2021 International System Dynamics Conference on the occasion of receiving the J. W. Forrester Award for the article, “Personalized ESA doses for anemia management in hemodialysis patients with end‐stage renal disease” (System Dynamics Review 2018, 34(1–2): 121–153). We summarize the evolution of a project which took place in a clinical setting between 2008 and 2015 that led to the award‐winning article. We present concepts from receptor theory that informed the first system dynamics application of biophysical system dynamics to the successful diagnosis, prescription, administration, and improvement of individualized patient care. We expand upon these ideas to present a generalized structure, DART (Dynamic Approach to Receptor Theory). It can be used to simulate the physiological effects of any agent, be it an exogenous pharmacological agent, an endogenous enzyme or hormone, or a toxin of some sort. We suggest including within the pharmacological technical literature easily acquired but frequently omitted critical parameter values and rate constants. These would enable researchers to perform transient analyses of biophysical phenomena in addition to static equilibrium analyses typically performed. With the availability of this data, we suggest that the fundamental tools of system dynamics might be used to reconceptualize the 100‐year‐old field of “occupation theory” (today, receptor theory) to deliver high‐resolution insights into physiological dynamics and the preventive, prescriptive, and palliative interventions they might require. It is our hope that these ideas could pave the way forward to novel, groundbreaking applications in biomedical system dynamics. © 2022 System Dynamics Society.

AbstractNanovaccine‐based immunotherapy (NBI) has the ability to initiate dendritic cell (DC)‐mediated tumor‐specific immune responses and maintain long‐term antitumor immune memory. To date, the mechanism by which the mechanical properties of nanoparticles alter the functions of DCs in NBI remains largely unclear. Here, a soft mesoporous organosilica‐based nanovaccine (SMONV) is prepared and the elasticity‐dependent effect of the nanovaccine on the underlying DC‐mediated immune responses is studied. It is found that the elasticity results in greater internalization of SMONV by DCs, followed by the induction of substantial cytosolic delivery of antigens via endosomal escape, leading to effective DC maturation and antigen cross‐presentation. Impressively, elasticity enables SMONV to enhance lymphatic drainage of antigens in vivo, thus stimulating robust humoral and cellular immunity. The results from therapeutic tumor vaccination further reveal that subcutaneously administered SMONV effectively suppresses tumor growth in tumor‐bearing mice by evoking antigen‐specific CD8+ T‐cell immune responses, mitigating regulatory T‐cell‐mediated immunosuppression, and increasing central memory and effector memory T‐cell populations. Furthermore, combinatorial immunization with SMONV and anti‐PD‐L1 blocking antibodies results in an amplified therapeutic effect on tumor‐bearing mice. These findings reveal the elastic effect of the nanovaccine on DC‐mediated immune responses, and the prepared SMONV represents a facile and powerful strategy for antitumor immunotherapy.
Safety and security risks management process for cyber‐physical systems: A case study
Authors: Inayat Irum , Farooq Muhammad , Inayat Zubaria 
Published: June 2022

AbstractCyber‐physical systems (CPS) are applicable in emerging industries such as health, energy, autonomous vehicles, and Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). In CPS the physical assets, that is, actuators and sensors, etc. communicate with each other over a messaging protocol. This communication process of CPS makes them vulnerable to cyber‐attacks which challenge the system safety, making security and safety two major concerns for CPS. Both safety and security risks are considered separately in literature. However, the International Society of Automation (ISA) focuses on the alignment of security and safety risks of CPS. Weak or no alignment in safety and security of a system may result in an inefficient or partially protected system which could end up in disasters. This pressed the need for an integrated safety‐security risk management process. For this purpose, we used a tetra packaging case study to (i) examine the vulnerabilities of CPS by running the risk management process, (ii) identify safety‐security requirements, and (iii) align retrieved safety‐security requirements with the relevant standards. The results show (i) safety hazards and security risks along with their severity and priority, (ii) mitigation guidelines are provided by consulting IEC 61508, and (iii) 15 safety‐security requirements are identified and are aligned with ISO9001 Packaging and labeling machine standard.

AbstractControlling the edge morphology and terminations of graphene nanoribbons (GNR) allows tailoring their electronic properties and boosts their application potential. One way of making such structures is encapsulating them inside single‐walled carbon nanotubes. Despite the versatility of Raman spectroscopy to resolve strong spectral signals of these systems, discerning the response of long nanoribbons from that of any residual precursor remaining outside after synthesis has been so far elusive. Here, the terrylene dye is used as precursor to make long and ultra‐narrow armchair‐edged GNR inside nanotubes. The alignment and characteristic length of terrylene encapsulated parallel to the tube's axis facilitates the ribbon formation via polymerization, with high stability up to 750 °C when the hybrid system is kept in high vacuum. A high temperature annealing is used to remove the terrylene external molecules and a subtraction model based on the determination of a scaling factor related to the G‐band response of the system is developed. This not only represents a critical step forward toward the analysis of the nanoribbon‐nanotube system, but it is a study that enables unraveling the Raman signatures of the individual CH‐modes (the signature of edge passivation) for GNR for the first time with unprecedented detail.

AbstractThe photocatalytic system using hydrohalic acid (HX) for hydrogen production is a promising strategy to generate clean and renewable fuels as well as value‐added chemicals (such as X2/X3−). However, it is still challenging to develop a visible‐light active and strong‐acid resistive photocatalyst. Hybrid perovskites have been recognized as a potential photocatalyst for photovoltaic HX splitting. Herein, a novel environmentally friendly mixed halide perovskite MA3Bi2Cl9–xIx with a bandgap funnel structure is developed, i.e., confirmed by energy dispersive X‐ray analysis and density functional theory calculations. Due to gradient neutral formation energy within iodine‐doped MA3Bi2Cl9, the concentration of iodide element decreases from the surface to the interior across the MA3Bi2Cl9–xIx perovskite. Because of the aligned energy levels of iodide/chloride‐mixed MA3Bi2Cl9–xIx, a graded bandgap funnel structure is therefore formed, leading to the promotion of photoinduced charge transfer from the interior to the surface for efficient photocatalytic redox reaction. As a result, the hydrogen generation rate of the optimized MA3Bi2Cl9–xIx is enhanced up to ≈341 ± 61.7 µmol h−1 with a Pt co‐catalyst under visible light irradiation.

Published: June 2022

AbstractRechargeable aqueous zinc‐based batteries (AZBs) have received massive attention as promising contenders for the future large‐scale energy storage due to their low cost, inherent safety, and abundant resources. However, the insufficient energy density and poor stability have become the key to hinder their further application. As is well known, the energy densities (E, Wh kg−1) of AZBs are determined by the specific capacity (mAh g−1) and output voltage (V). Given the fixed redox potential and capacity of the Zn metal anode, the energy density of AZBs is mainly determined by the cathode material, and the rich material systems of the cathode provide more possibilities to this field. Meanwhile, the methods to improve the stability and performance of the Zn anodes have gained more and more attention due to the severe Zn dendrite growth that can pierce the separator and lead to short‐circuiting of the cell. Therefore, in this review, we comprehensively summarize the rational design methods in optimizing the cathode, anode, and device architecture, and classic examples of each catalogue are discussed in details as well. Last, the issues and outlook for further development of high performance AZBs are also presented.

Published: June 2022

AbstractNi‐rich layered cathodes with high energy densities reveal an enormous potential for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs), however, their poor stability and reliability have inhibited their application. To ensure their stability over extensive cycles at high voltage, surface/interface modifications are necessary to minimize the adverse reactions at the cathode‐electrolyte interface (CEI), which is a critical factor impeding electrode performance. Therefore, this review provides a comprehensive discussion on the surface engineering of Ni‐rich cathode materials for enhancing their lithium storage property. Based on the structural characteristics of the Ni‐rich cathode, the major failure mechanisms of these structures during synthesis and operation are summarized. Then the existing surface modification techniques are discussed and compared. Recent breakthroughs in various surface coatings and modification strategies are categorized and their unique functionalities in structural protection and performance‐enhancing are elaborated. Finally, the challenges and outlook on the Ni‐rich cathode materials are also proposed.

AbstractLaser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a new treatment option for patients with brain and non‐central nervous system (non‐CNS) tumors. MRI guidance allows for precise placement of optical fiber in the tumor, while MR thermometry provides real‐time monitoring and assessment of thermal doses during the procedure. Despite promising clinical results, LITT complications relating to brain tumor procedures, such as hemorrhage, edema, seizures, and thermal injury to nearby healthy tissues, remain a significant concern. To address these complications, nanoparticles offer unique prospects for precise interstitial hyperthermia applications that increase heat transport within the tumor while reducing thermal impacts on neighboring healthy tissues. Furthermore, nanoparticles permit the co‐delivery of therapeutic compounds that not only synergize with LITT, but can also improve overall effectiveness and safety. In addition, efficient heat‐generating nanoparticles with unique optical properties can enhance LITT treatments through improved real‐time imaging and thermal sensing. This review will focus on (1) types of inorganic and organic nanoparticles for LITT; (2) in vitro, in silico, and ex vivo studies that investigate nanoparticles' effect on light–tissue interactions; and (3) the role of nanoparticle formulations in advancing clinically relevant image‐guided technologies for LITT.This article is categorized under:

Visitors, Usurpers, and Renovators: Glimpses from the History of Egyptian Sepulchral Monuments
Authors: Gundacker Roman 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe Egyptian ideal was to establish an everlasting mortuary cult in order to ensure for the deceased infinite commemoration in this world and eternal life in the otherworld. In order to achieve this bold aim, funerary institutions were endowed with land and income, the priests and personnel were bound strictly to observe their duties and principles, and future offspring were defined as legally constrained to take over the offices and obligations of their fathers. In most instances, however, families became incapable of affording the cult or were extinct after a few generations, personnel left the priesthood, or the funerary institutions were stripped of property and were discontinued. Over time, even royal mortuary cults were ended and royal monuments abandoned. The tombs and memorial monuments then remained uncared for and were left to an uncertain future. As time went by, some of those monuments evolved into local attractions for visitors, some were piously restored, some were usurped or reused, and some were dismantled in order to process the building materials for new edifices. The present contribution aims at tracing the Egyptians’ thoughts and experiences and at illustrating the manifold fates of Egyptian mortuary monuments.
The Graves When They Open, Will Be Witnesses Against Thee: Mass Burial and the Agency of the Dead in Thomas Dekker’s Plague Pamphlets
Authors: Briest Sarah 
Published: June 2022

AbstractPlague pamphlets like Thomas Dekker’sThe Wonderfull Yeare(1603),Newes from Graves-end(1604), andA Rod for Runawayes(1625) recount devastating, large-scale outbreaks of bubonic plague in early modern London, chronicling a metropolitan state of crisis in which normality is suspended and Londoners live in mortal fear of the dead and the dying (while country folk live in mortal fear of Londoners). Amid the terror of contagion, with parochial cemeteries overflowing and the urban economy near a standstill, conventional funerary practices are supplanted by emergency measures. In his pamphlets, Dekker indicts sins—mostly of omission—committed in this climate against the infected and their mortal remains. Dekker laments that plague victims may be treated in death like convicted criminals or suicides but his especial horror is reserved for the mass grave which he understands as the worst possible affront to the dignity of the deceased. Although the historical accuracy of Dekker’s portrayal of plague burial is debatable (especially given the evidence provided by the 2015 New Churchyard excavations), he demonstrates striking conceptions of postmortem agency and individuality in the plague pamphlets. He recalls the dead from the convenient concealment of the grave and makes them visible once more (to the mind’s eye) and it is in this visibility that their agency resides.
Introduction
Authors: Hazell Philip 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe purpose of this book is to describe the multidisciplinary model of care delivered by a long stay high severity psychiatric unit for adolescents. We acknowledge that many jurisdictions do not have the resources to establish a unit that fulfils such a specialized role within the system of mental health care. Nevertheless, we hope that the learnings derived from the unit may generalize to other specialist adolescent mental health inpatient settings.
Music Therapy
Authors: McIntyre Joanne 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe Walker Unit is one of only a few adolescent inpatient units in Australia to include a Registered Music Therapist on the Allied Health team. The Walker Unit has a music room equipped with guitars, ukuleles, a keyboard, a drum kit, African drums, a cello and a violin. Music therapy sessions are conducted with individuals, patient groups and families. Empirical evidence supporting the benefits of Music Therapy in this setting is limited, however we have observed that creating music in a containing environment enhances self-awareness, stimulates verbalization and facilitates relaxation.
The Pharmacist and Pharmacotherapy
Authors: Hanh Jacky , Hazell Philip , Feijo Isabelle 
Published: June 2022

AbstractClinical pharmacy services aim to optimise health outcomes and improve patient safety throughout all steps of the medicines management pathway, by ensuring the quality use of medicines and minimising medication-related problems. The role of the pharmacist includes gathering and documenting medication histories, performing medication reconciliation and undertaking clinical medication reviews. These services support collaborative approaches between patients, carers and the multidisciplinary team to develop patient-centred medication management plans. The practice of pharmacotherapy at the Walker Unit shares features in common with prescribing in acute child and adolescent mental health inpatient units, but there are some differences. This chapter will in particular seek to highlight the characteristics of pharmacotherapy that are distinct to longer stay intensive psychiatric care.
The Policy Context and Governance
Authors: Kotze Beth 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe Walker Unit opened in 2009 as the first of its kind in Australia to provide an intensive longer stay secure psychiatric inpatient rehabilitation programme for adolescents with severe mental illness who had not benefited from at least one but generally repeated admissions or prolonged care in other tertiary inpatient unit settings. Unusually, this happened at a time when the focus of reform in mental health at a State and National level is on community models, early intervention and community residential care rather than extended inpatient care in the specialist clinical sector. As a first of its kind, the Unit is an important innovation in inpatient mental health care and has garnered a reputation in the clinical sector for creating value in mental health care.

AbstractGiven the typical length of admission young people hospitalised at the Walker Unit may spend somewhere in the vicinity of 3–5% of their current lifespan living in the facility. It is imperative therefore that the admission affords the opportunity for engagement in a developmentally appropriate therapeutic programme, while at the same time maintaining safety. Patient mix, including phase of recovery, has an important impact on the ward milieu. Safety is maintained through observation and engagement. A level system the young people have helped design promotes and rewards skill development and prosocial behaviour. The chapter will describe the strategies the Walker Unit uses to maintain safety while at the same time addressing adolescent needs such as access to social media, interaction with peers, and sexual safety.
Einstein Yang-Mills amplitudes from intersections of twisted forms

Abstract
We present a geometric derivation of all-multiplicity (single-trace) tree-level Einstein Yang-Mills (EYM) amplitudes $$ \mathcal{A} $$
A
(n; r) involving n gluons and r gravitons by a bilinear of two twisted differential forms on the moduli space of Riemann spheres with m := n + r punctures. The differential forms are gained by studying the underlying superstring disk amplitude and proposing an embedding of the disk onto the sphere. This map can be interpreted as a geometrical map from the open superstring to a heterotic or ambitwistor string structure. Then, the twisted intersection number of the two m-forms, which is obtained by integrating over the moduli space of Riemann sphere with m punctures, reproduces in the infinite inverse string tension limit α′ → ∞ the corresponding CHY formula of the EYM amplitude. To bolster our findings we study the disk amplitude of open and closed strings using the Graßmann description of the underlying superstring amplitude, map it to a closed string amplitude and consider the α′ → ∞ limit. Finally, we present an all-multiplicity decomposition formula of any EYM amplitude $$ \mathcal{A} $$

(n; r) as linear combination over (m − 3)! pure m gluon subamplitudes.
Light sterile neutrinos and lepton-number-violating kaon decays in effective field theory
Authors: Zhou Guanghui 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
We investigate lepton-number-violating decays K∓ → π±l∓l∓ in the presence of sterile neutrinos. We consider minimal interactions with Standard-Model fields through Yukawa couplings as well as higher-dimensional operators in the framework of the neutrino-extended Standard Model Effective Field Theory. We use SU(3) chiral perturbation theory to match to mesonic interactions and compute the lepton-number-violating decay rate in terms of the neutrino masses and the Wilson coefficients of higher-dimensional operators. For neutrinos that can be produced on-shell, the decay rates are highly enhanced and higher-dimensional interactions can be probed up to very high scales around $$ \mathcal{O} $$
