An exploration of the institutionalisation of public relations at executive level in the top 100 companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) by Elizabeth Ferreira, Rene Engelbrecht

“…Current and recent literature provided a conceptual framework based on the premise that organisations have much to gain by involving senior practitioners in top-level decision-making and strategy formulation. The following theories informed the primary research, which took the form of qualitative semi-structured interviews with the participating practitioners: excellence theory, the dominant coalition, the relational approach, the reflective paradigm and roles theory, with the main focus on the strategic role of public relations. …”

Sensitive dependence of pairing symmetry on Ni-e g crystal field splitting in the nickelate superconductor La3Ni2O7 by Chengliang Xia, Hongquan Liu, Shengjie Zhou, Hanghui Chen

“…However, consensus has not been reached on its pairing symmetry in theory. By combining density-functional-theory (DFT), maximally-localized-Wannier-function, and linearized gap equation with random-phase-approximation, we find that the pairing symmetry of La3Ni2O7 is d x y , if its DFT band structure is accurately reproduced by a downfolded bilayer two-orbital model. …”
