Evaluation of the Safety Rate in the Diagnostic Radiology Departments in Alkhoms City, Libya

Diagnostic radiation such as X-rays and CT scans play a central role in the diagnosis of diseases. Excessive radiation exposure poses a high risk for healthcare providers as well as patients, which may cause serious diseases such as cancer. Providing protection requirements in the radiation departments and continuous inspection to prevent radiation leakage is the right way to provide human protection. The current study aimed to evaluate the safety rate in the diagnostic radiology departments in Alkhoms City. The questionnaire designed for the study in Arabic language, presented to experts for verification and review, then distributed to eleven medical centres in the Alkhoms region containing many relevant questions regarding the radiology department such as the name and address of a medical centre, in-formation about users and safety. Lead plates are present in 91% of health centres 36% of health centres installed lead plates for 1-5 years, 27% for 6-10 years, and 36% for 21 years or more. Lead plates are inspected once in 27%, three times in 9%, and four times or more in 9% of medical centres, on the other hand, 56% of medical centres didn’t inspect lead plates since installed. The lead plates last examined in 27% of medical centres a year ago, in 9% examined less than five years ago, and in 9% examined less than twenty years ago. On the other hand, 56% of medical centres have not performed any check-ups since installation. Protection glass and lead plates are present in 82% of medical centres, a radiation protection gown is present in 36%, and a dosimeter is present in 9% of medical centres only. Only 18% of health centres have organised a training programme for their radiology department staff. The safety rate in radiology departments in Alkhoms City- Libya is low because most medical centres lack protective equipment, and if they do, there is no regular inspection or testing of this equipment.

Knowledge and Adherence to Radiation Protection among Non-Radiation Health Care Workers at Two Operating Theatres in Windhoek, Namibia.

Background: In operating theatres, diagnostic radiography is used to capture images during surgical operations. With the growing use of fluoroscopy, there are concerns about increased radiation exposure to healthcare workers such as doctors and nurses. Thus, assessing HCWs' knowledge and adherence to radiation protection is crucial to prevent overexposure, radiation-related health issues, and ensure patient safety. Objective:The study aimed to assess the knowledge of non-radiation HCWs regarding radiation protection and determine the level of adherence to radiation protection in two theaters. Methods: A quantitative descriptive research methodology was used. Data collection involved a questionnaire, and participants were selected through a simple random sampling method. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. Results: Fifty-eight non-radiation HCWs participated. Most (77.6%) were female with nurses comprising the largest demographic (62.1%). Most participants (53.4%) lacked prior education in radiation protection. Concerningly, 70.7% did not use dosimeters during theater radiography, which is a requirement for radiation protection. No significant association was found between participants' allocated hospital and the level of knowledge, but a significant association (p = 0.027) was found between participants' allocated hospital and adherence levels. Conclusion: The findings suggest inadequate knowledge and adherence to radiation protection. Therefore, education on radiation protection must be mandated, and measures should be taken to enforce adherence.

Photodamage prediction model and optimal lighting system for polychrome artworks in museum

When lighting polychrome artworks in museum, the light sources are required not only to provide high-quality visual performance, but also to minimize the photodamage. Currently, though there are mature methods to calculate visual performance, how to predict the degree of photodamage remains a challenge, which leads to a lack of light sources satisfying both visual and protection requirements. Our study conducted a series of 294 accelerated aging experiments spanning over 11 years for materials commonly used in Chinese polychrome artworks, using isoenergetic white-light D55 and 10 different wavelengths of narrow-band light as experimental light sources. The mathematical model predicting the photodamage degree caused by intensity (I), exposure time (t), the relative spectral power distribution of the light source (S(λ)), and the irradiated material's relative spectral responsivity (P(λ)) to polychrome artworks was established, and the mean absolute percentage error of the model, as verified by experiments, was 11.63 %. Combined with the existing visual performance calculation methods, an optimal lighting algorithm that simultaneously meets high-quality visual performance and minimum photodamage was developed, followed by developing a new Spectrally Tunable White LEDs (STWLEDs) lighting system with 10 LED chips. It is found that the STWLEDs can adjust and output the optimal spectra and recommended illuminance according to the characteristics of polychrome artworks, thus realizing lighting with minimum photodamage, meanwhile, satisfying high-quality visual performance. After testing, as well as satisfying the requirements of visual performance, the average photodamage is reduced by 40.95 % with STWLEDs compared with the traditional WLEDs.

HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTIONS AND REFUGEES' WELFARE

The extraordinary magnitude of population displacement, stemming from conflict, persecution, and natural disasters, has exerted significant strain on international organizations, governments, and civil society. Humanitarian interventions, involving various actions undertaken by these entities, are essential in supplying refugees with vital resources, protective measures, and possibilities to endure and reconstruct their lives. This study thoroughly evaluates the influence of humanitarian interventions on refugee welfare, investigating their roles and impacts, addressing their challenges and triumphs, and offering policy recommendations to enhance refugee welfare through more effective humanitarian initiatives. The research design is qualitative, employing secondary data sources including scholarly publications, policy documents, and reports from international organizations and NGOs. Data and visualizations from Our World in Data were utilized to examine trends and patterns in refugee welfare, encompassing access to fundamental requirements, protection, healthcare, education, livelihoods, and psychosocial assistance. The results underscore the substantial influence of humanitarian efforts on refugee well-being, as demonstrated by the examination of the Syrian and Rohingya refugee crises. The graphical representation depicts the significant spike in asylum applicants resulting from these crises and the extent of dislocation experienced by impacted populations. The study highlights the necessity of ongoing and extensive humanitarian aid to meet the varied requirements of refugees, encompassing shelter, nutrition, healthcare, psychosocial support, and protection. The study indicates that humanitarian interventions are essential for improving refugee welfare; nonetheless, hurdles remain, including resource limitations, coordination difficulties, and the necessity to transition from short-term relief to long-term development. Recommendations encompass enhancing global alliances, ensuring equitable burden-sharing, integrating long-term development goals, refining legislative frameworks, prioritizing vulnerable populations, and investigating novel finance options.

Energy harvesting properties for potassium-sodium niobate piezoceramics through synergistic effect of phase structure and texturing engineering

In order to address the energy dilemma and meet environmental protection requirements, it is an urgent need to develop lead-free piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs). However, the low output power density has seriously hindered the application of lead-free piezoceramics as high efficiency energy harvesters. To solve above question, the combination of phase structure regulation and texturing technique in the K0.5Na0.5NbO3-xBi0.5Na0.5ZrO3-0.5%wtBiFeO3 (KNN-xBNZ) ceramics was adopted in this work. Because of both the Rhombohedral-Orthorhombic-Tetragonal (R-O-T) multiphases coexistence and texturing engineering, an ultrahigh piezoelectric activity quality factor d33×g33 ∼ 18324 ×10-15 m2·N-1 was achieved in the textured KNN-0.05BNZ (T-KNN-0.05BNZ) ceramics, which is about third times higher than that of random KNN-0.05BNZ (R-KNN-0.05BNZ) (d33×g33 ∼ 6672 ×10-15 m2·N-1) ones. A high output power of ∼ 0.32 mW was also obtained in the T-KNN-0.05BNZ ceramics by cantilever beam-based energy harvester devices under the resonance frequency of 75 Hz and matched RL of 1.2 MΩ, suggesting that the T-KNN-0.05BNZ ceramics have a great potential for application in the PEHs devices. This result also reveals that the combination of phase structure regulation and texturing technique is an effective way to achieved a high energy harvesting performances.

Identification of characteristics of conceptual prototype of microprocessor resource-saving relay protection system

The object of the study is the conceptual prototype of a microprocessor resource-saving relay protection system. Currently, relay protection ensures electrical networks reliable and efficient work, however, the traditional architecture is proprietary, not allowing to fix and replace damaged parts without a company specialist. Therefore, the open-architecture relay protection is a very pressing issue, but the problem lies in meeting the relay protection requirements. The data transmission protocols nRF and ESP-NOW, Hall sensors evaluation for AC current measurement determination and sensor accuracy improvement was implemented. Experimental validation demonstrated that nRF and ESP-NOW protocols meet the delay and reliability requirements, however, the nRF protocol is more suitable due to its flexibility and obstacle penetration. The data demonstrated that the most effective conditions are without obstacles at 15 meters from the modem and with obstacles 5 meters from the modem. The experiment of Hall sensors characteristics determination demonstrated the accuracy of current measurement with the set values of the opening and closing currents. Nevertheless, it is not accurate (12.45 %) for the relay protection application. Therefore, the application of the changing values of the opening and closing currents is more effective and accuracy reaches 6.92 %. As a result, the service life of the Hall sensor was determined, and even after 10 million openings, the open state time remained unchanged. Therefore, the approximation function for current amplitude determination depending on open state time was found. On the other hand, Hall sensors may suffer from temperature drift and require further optimization to be fully reliable. The study limitation is the current range from 0 to 800 A

Record linkage as a vital key player for the COVID-19 syndemic

Abstract Chronicity, comorbidities, and social context influence COVID-19 risk and prognosis, drawing attention to a syndemic dimension. We discuss how linking routinely collected data and data collected through observational population-based cohorts can contribute to advance knowledge on the association between COVID-19 and chronic diseases and social indicators. Record linkage as a multidimensional tool may ultimately enable defining and optimizing of integrated strategies, which may create multilevel public health measures to foster solidarity on health in all policies when ethical and legal barriers under prerequisite data protection and privacy can be overcome. Legal discrepancies have been proving detrimental to research in member states, including those which already had established a margin for research for the common good without explicit consent. We hence call for further harmonization of data protection requirements for scientific research activities in the EU/EEA, focusing in particular on health-related research. A proposed framework demonstrates the role of record linkage as a trailblazing key player in research optimization due to its multidimensional possibilities calling for harmonization. Key messages • Further harmonization of data protection requirements for scientific research may create multilevel public health measures. • As a multidimensional tool, it optimizes integrated strategies and fosters solidarity on Health in All Policies (HiAP).

Development and Characterization of Thermal Protection Gels for Steel Pipelines Transporting Combustible Materials

Due to low costs, pipelines are commonly used for transporting hazardous substances such as combustible liquids and gasses. Currently, chemical industrial parks and gas production stations have dense pipeline networks. In the case of a pipeline leakage and subsequent fire accident, the adjacent pipelines could be directly impinged by the flame or engulfed in hot smoke, with the potential to result in a chain of accidents and catastrophic consequences. It is thus of practical importance to develop an efficient thermal protection material for pipelines. In this study, a new type of bio-based gel material was prepared for pipeline thermal protection, using guar gum (GG) as the gelling agent, sodium tetraborate (B) as the crosslinking agent and magnesium chloride (MgCl2) as the fire retardant. Firstly, orthogonal experiments were conducted to examine the gelling time of the gel and determine the optimal formulations that meet the protection requirements. Subsequently, water retention, thermal stability and the microstructure of these formulations were analyzed. Finally, the thermal protection performance of the gel formulations was evaluated under the direct impingement of flames or high-temperature smoke. The results indicated that the best performance was achieved by the formulation with GG, B and MgCl2 mass fractions of 2.5, 0.6 and 0.5 wt%, respectively. This formulation also exhibited the best water retention capacity and thermal stability. In the pipeline thermal protection experiments, this formulation achieved effective protection times of 216 s (for a 90 mm diameter) and 312 s (for a 120 mm diameter) for the lower part of the pipeline under direct flame impingement. Under high-temperature smoke impingement, this formulation also showed excellent performance. These research and findings can provide an important foundation for the further development of thermal protection materials for pipelines under fire conditions.

Ecological Suitability Evaluation of City Construction Based on Landscape Ecological Analysis

Ecological suitability evaluation is a critical component of regional sustainable development and construction, serving as a foundation for optimizing spatial patterns of regional growth. This is particularly pertinent in karst mountainous regions characterized by limited land resources and heightened ecosystem vulnerability, where a quantitative assessment of ecological suitability for land development is both crucial and urgent. Based on the fundamental principles of structural and functional dynamics in landscape ecology, this study focuses on Gui’an New Area, a designated urban development zone situated in the karst landscape of Guizhou Province. An index system was established encompassing three dimensions: ecological elements, ecological significance, and ecological resilience, utilizing the integrated ecological resistance (IER) model to evaluate the suitability of regional development and construction. The results reveal that the eastern region exhibits higher suitability compared to the central and western regions, with the northwest region demonstrating the lowest suitability overall. Relatively speaking, the evaluation of geological environment suitability and the comprehensive ecological constraints associated with development and construction indicates that the areas currently planned and ongoing reflect flat terrain and low ecological risk. Furthermore, within the scope of ecosystem dynamic adaptation, developmental activities in these regions exert minimal impact on the natural ecosystem, thereby demonstrating a high suitability for development and construction. In terms of future key development zones, areas with gentle slopes ranging from 8 to 15 degrees are recommended, aligning with the actual requirements for cultivated land protection. The total area designated as prohibited development zones constitutes the smallest proportion, representing only 9.45%, which is significantly lower than that of priority development zones (38.75%) and moderate development zones (22.45%). From the perspective of landscape ecology, this paper provides a comprehensive investigation into the ecological suitability evaluation system for development and construction in the karst regions of Southwest China, offering valuable insights for assessing ecological suitability in similar areas.

Ecological Environment Assessment System in River–Riparian Areas Based on a Protocol for Hydromorphological Quality Evaluation

This paper aims to propose a method for the evaluation of the hydromorphological quality of a river and its riparian areas using three essential components: morphological characterization, river connectivity, and vegetation coverage. The method has been applied to the Tordera river in Catalonia, Spain. The general goal is to establish a riparian environment assessment tool by proposing parameters for each of the three mentioned aspects. This approach relies on data collection and evaluation with a simple computational procedure for eliminating subjectivity in the weighting and classification of evaluation levels. In the proposed methodology, the weights of the indicators are determined by the Distance Correlation-Based CRITIC (D-CRITIC) method, and the results are integrated using the Coupling Coordination Degree Model (CCDM). The proposed methodology quantifies assessment parameters and analyzes the environmental problems faced by riparian zones and rivers through the parameters and the results of the CCDM and thus can be used as a basis for proposing methods to improve the ecological situation. The results can be used for the enhancement of the coordination between the development of riparian resources and the requirements of ecosystem protection and utilization, and they can be used to promote the healthy development of ecological environments and the effective use of riparian resources.

Raman Measurements in the Hydroformylation of Decene with Laser Powers of 1 mW in Ex Zones

AbstractA custom‐made Raman setup is improved and adjusted to allow its use in Ex zones by using a 1‐mW laser and no optical focusing elements. The application under consideration is the hydroformylation of decene to undecanal, which must take place under explosion protection. To investigate the dispersive mixture, a separation takes place in a phase separation cell in which the Raman probe performs measurements. It can be shown that, with the use of highly sensitive detectors, even very low excitation powers can lead to a processable signal, and thus the application of Raman measurement technology far below the requirements of explosion protection is possible.

Trimetallic MOF–derived Fe–Mn–Sn oxide heterostructure enabling exceptional catalytic degradation of organic pollutants

Developing efficient and environmentally benign heterogeneous catalysts that activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of persistent organic contaminants remains a challenge. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)–derived metal oxide catalysts in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have received considerable attention research fraternity. Herein, we report an innovative magnetic trimetallic MOF-derived Fe-Mn-Sn oxide heterostructure (FeMnO@Sn) with adjustable morphology, size and Sn content, prepared through an impregnation–calcination strategy. The formation of a novel magnetic Fe2O3/Fe3O4/Mn3O4 heterostructure induces the generation of abundant Fe2+ and Mn2+ sites on the FeMnO@Sn surface. Meanwhile, the introduction of SnO2 into the Fe2O3/Fe3O4/Mn3O4 heterostructure facilitates the cleavage of the OO bond in adsorbed PMS. The synergy among the different functionalities of each metal oxide plays a vital role in the swift and effective degradation of pollutants. In addition, the uniquely designed catalyst exhibits magnetic properties that facilitate easy recycling and repeated use, thereby meeting environmental protection requirements. Overall, this research highlights the design of heterogeneous catalysts for the effective activation of PMS and provides valuable insights for the advancement of future environmental catalysts.

High‐speed main protection for multiterminal LCC‐MMC‐UHVDC based on initial wave process comparison

AbstractThe multiterminal LCC‐MMC‐UHVDC, which employs an LCC on the rectifier side and multiple FHMMCs on the inverter side, has emerged as a cutting‐edge technology. Nevertheless, distinct disparities in their protection requirements compared to those of conventional DC grids pose notable challenges in attaining the desired attributes. This paper first derives variation patterns in the time domain of initial waves under different fault conditions. By utilizing the theoretically calculated rate‐of‐change waveform for the backward current traveling wave in an external fault scenario as a reference, a main protection relay grounded in initial wave process comparison is proposed. This approach capitalizes on the disparity observed in internal faults with the theoretical waveform. To mitigate maloperations stemming from the employment of a non‐directional start‐up criterion in reverse fault scenarios, subtle noise patterns, mimicking the theoretical waveforms, are infused into the actual waveforms. This approach averts maloperations in reverse faults and obviates the need for added delays associated with directional start‐up criteria, thereby enhancing both speed and security. Case studies demonstrate that the proposed protection offers sufficient selectivity and a resistive tolerance of 600 ohms and boasts a speed of 0.2 ms, satisfying the requirements of 800 kV UHVDC systems.

Axial Impact Response of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Structures in High-Speed Trains Based on Filament Winding Process.

The continuous increase in the operating speed of rail vehicles demands higher requirements for passive safety protection and lightweight design. This paper focuses on an energy-absorbing component (circular tubes) at the end of a train. Thin-walled carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) tubes were prepared using the filament winding process. Through a combination of sled impact tests and finite element simulations, the effects of a chamfered trigger (Tube I) and embedded trigger (Tube II) on the impact response and crashworthiness of the structure were investigated. The results showed that both triggering methods led to the progressive end failure of the tubes. Tube I exhibited a mean crush force (MCF) of 891.89 kN and specific energy absorption (SEA) of 38.69 kJ/kg. In comparison, the MCF and SEA of Tube II decreased by 21.2% and 21.9%, respectively. The reason for this reduction is that the presence of the embedded trigger in Tube II restricts the expansion of the inner plies (plies 4 to 6), thereby affecting the overall energy absorption mechanism. Based on the validated finite element model, a modeling strategy study was conducted, including the failure parameters (DFAILT/DFAILC), the friction coefficient, and the interfacial strength. It was found that the prediction results are significantly influenced by modeling methods. Specifically, as the interfacial strength decreases, the tube wall is more prone to circumferential cracking or overall buckling under axial impact.

Smart Product-Service System for Parking Furniture—Sale of Storage Space in Parking Places

Growing competition, changing customer needs, and growing environmental protection requirements mean companies are forced to change their approach to business. Traditional product sales are being replaced by systemic solutions focused on meeting specific customer requirements while reducing negative impacts on the environment. One such solution is the Product-Service System (PSS). This allows manufacturers to offer their products’ functionalities and features through related services. By extending the life of products, promoting the reuse of materials, and reducing the amount of waste, the implementation of PSS strongly supports sustainable development. The paper focuses on a new product group—garage boxes (GB). It discusses a new PSS business model that responds to the needs of people living in blocks of flats with no tenant storage lockers or rooms in the basement. The new business model sells the function (storing various possessions) and eliminates problems faced by tenants due to the lack of sufficient storage space. It provides customers with high-quality GB for as long as they need them. Customers can pick and choose equipment with additional services depending on their needs. The idea of the model is the outcome of a nationwide study carried out in Poland on a group of 500 residents of blocks of flats and consultations with manufacturers, homeowner associations, wholesale and retail traders, and the financial sector. The study provided us with information and data that provided a comprehensive picture of the problem of the absence of storage lockers or rooms for residents and the needs connected with GB. The results of the conducted research indicate that the developed business model responds to the diverse requirements of residents and supports sustainable solutions. It is an alternative to the lack of a storage unit assigned to each apartment. The business model developed in the paper is highly innovative and comprehensive. This makes it an attractive solution for residents of apartment blocks, and its implementation can significantly reduce the environmental impact.

Mechanical performance and prediction of a novel reinforced octagonal honeycomb

Honeycomb structures are widely used in various engineering applications due to their lightweight and excellent energy absorption capabilities. Materials with two plateau stress regions exhibit unique advantages in multi-stage energy dissipation and multi-task applications. This paper presents a reinforced octagonal honeycomb structure (ROHC) inspired by the topology of an octagonal tensegrity structures. The paper demonstrates the phenomenon of two plateau deformation stages through the 3D printing of ROHC specimens and finite element simulation. By adjusting three geometric parameters of ROHC (angle α, length ratio r, and thickness t of internal reinforcement), the paper obtains the influence laws on the first and second plateau stress and strain, and proves the controllability of two-stage mechanical performance of ROHC. Based on deep learning technology, a performance prediction model for ROHC's two-stage mechanical performance is proposed, with the MSE and R values confirming the accuracy of the prediction model. Based on the prediction model, a rapid reverse design method is proposed, capable of designing structures with expected two-stage mechanical performance, with errors <7.25 %. The proposed honeycomb structure with predictable and reversible design has significant research value in fields with multi-stage energy absorption and crash protection requirements.

Extend UTAUT2 Model to Analyze User Behavior of China Construction Bank Mobile App

The outbreak of COVID-19 has been accelerating the digital transformation of financial institutions all over the world. Mobile banking APPs become an important channel to provide financial services in the Internet and Big Data era. Factors that restrict its development have attracted the close attention of scholars and practitioners around the world. Different from a general APP software, mobile banking APPs naturally have some financial attributes which set high requirements for personal privacy protection and other security issues. For this reason, this paper extends the original UTAUT2 model by incorporating a new constructor: perceived risks. The study carefully selects China Construction Bank’s mobile banking app (short as “the CCB APP”), as she is the biggest bank in China and has good novelty and representativeness in financial technology. This paper constructs an extended UTAUT2-based model using questionnaires and structural equation modeling the user behavior of CCB APP and tests the influencing factors of the proposed model through empirical analysis. Similar to other studies using the UTAUT2 model, the findings of this paper indicate that performance expectations, effort expectations, social influence, facilitators, and habits, all have a positive impact on CCB APP users’ intentions. Their intention to use was a mediating variable of user behavior, while facilitators directly influenced CCB users’ behavior. However, the study finds that perceived risk negatively affects the CCB users’ intention while hedonic motivation and price value do not significantly affect users’ decision-making process. Based on these findings, the misdirection should to be avoided in regard to financial APP development by financial institutions is discussed and the future research direction concerning mobile banking app adoption is illustrated.

Setting-Aside Proceedings Against Treaty- Based Arbitral Awards in Switzerland and Their Contribution to the Debate Regarding the Fundamental Requirements for Protection under Investment Treaties

The Swiss Federal Supreme Court has rendered over twenty-five decisions in setting-aside proceedings brought against treaty-based arbitral awards to date. Against the backdrop of conflicting decisions by arbitral tribunals on many issues that regularly arise in investment arbitrations, the emergence of a consistent body of jurisprudence by the Court may be of interest even outside of Switzerland. The present contribution provides an overview of the procedure for setting aside arbitral awards before the Court and assesses the relevance of the various grounds for setting-aside that can be invoked specifically with regard to treaty-based arbitral awards. It addresses the Court’s most interesting findings in relation to the fundamental requirements for obtaining protection under investment treaties and shows that the Court will likely further contribute to the debate on jurisdictional issues in treaty-based arbitrations.

Spin Exchange-Enabled Quantum Simulator for Large-Scale Non-Abelian Gauge Theories

A central requirement for the faithful implementation of large-scale lattice gauge theories (LGTs) on quantum simulators is the protection of the underlying gauge symmetry. Recent advancements in the experimental realizations of large-scale LGTs have been impressive, albeit mostly restricted to Abelian gauge groups. Guided by this requirement for gauge protection, we propose an experimentally feasible approach to implement large-scale non-Abelian SU(N) and U(N) LGTs with dynamical matter in d+1D, enabled by two-body spin-exchange interactions realizing local emergent gauge-symmetry stabilizer terms. We present two concrete proposals for 2+1DSU(2) and U(2) LGTs, including dynamical bosonic matter and induced plaquette terms, that can be readily implemented in current ultracold-molecule and next-generation ultracold-atom platforms. We provide numerical benchmarks showcasing experimentally accessible dynamics, and demonstrate the stability of the underlying non-Abelian gauge invariance. We develop a method to obtain the effective gauge-invariant model featuring the relevant magnetic plaquette and minimal gauge-matter coupling terms. Our approach paves the way towards near-term realizations of large-scale non-Abelian quantum link models in analog quantum simulators. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
