Bounds of Degree-Based Molecular Descriptors for Generalized F-sum Graphs by Jia Bao Liu, Sana Akram, Muhammad Javaid, Abdul Raheem, Roslan Hasni

“…Wiener (1947) and Trinjastic and Gutman (1972) used molecular descriptors to find the boiling point of paraffin and total π-electron energy of the molecules, respectively. For molecular graphs, the general sum-connectivity and general Randić are well-studied fundamental topological indices (TIs) which are considered as degree-based molecular descriptors. …”

Metals valorization from pyrolyzed waste PCBS by Kilibarda Nikola B., Kamberović Željko J., Đokić Jovana M., Kovačević Tihomir M., Jovanović Nikola M.

“…This paper examines the potential for valorizing the non-metallic fraction (NMF) of e-waste, focusing on metal recovery through pyrolysis to address challenges in electronic waste recycling. Characterization of a real sample showed that NMF contains 3.44 wt.% metals, primarily copper (80 wt.%), indicating potential for its valorization. …”

Highly oxygenated cyclohexenes from the leaves of Uvaria grandiflora Roxb. ex Hornem and their cytotoxic and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities by Virayu Suthiphasilp, Moses Egoh Betangah, Passakorn Teerapongpisan, Narawadee Rujanapun, Boonyanoot Chaiyosang, Sarawut Tontapha, Pakit Kumboonma, Brian O. Patrick, Raymond J. Andersen, Rawiwan Charoensup, Thidarat Duangyod, Phunrawie Promnart, Tharakorn Maneerat, Surat Laphookhieo

“…The (1S,2S,3R,6S) absolute configuration of uvariagrandols A and B was established by the comparison of the experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD). (+)-Grandifloracin (9) displayed cytotoxicity against SW480 and K562 cell lines with IC50 values of 154.9 and 60.9 μM, respectively. 6-Methoxyzeylenol (5) had α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with the IC50 value of 34.1 μM.…”

Interferometric Study of Ionospheric Plasma Irregularities in Regions of Phase Scintillations and HF Backscatter by Andres Spicher, James LaBelle, John W. Bonnell, Roger Roglans, Chrystal Moser, Stephen A. Fuselier, Scott Bounds, Lasse B. N. Clausen, Francesca Di Mare, Connor A. Feltman, Yaqi Jin, Craig Kletzing, Wojciech J. Miloch, Jøran I. Moen, Kjellmar Oksavik, Rhyan Sawyer, Toru Takahashi, Tim K. Yeoman

“…We take advantage of the fact that the irregularities were detected by spatially separated probes, and present an interferometric analysis of both the observed electron density and electric field fluctuations. We provide evidence that fluctuations spanning a few decameters to about a meter have low phase velocity in the plasma reference frame and are nondispersive, confirming that decameter‐scale irregularities follow the E × B velocity. …”

Discharge photoelectrocatalytic system for the degradation of aromatics by Hak-Soo Kim, Eun-Ah Lee, Ju-Hyeon Lee, Chul-Hee Han, Jin-Wook Ha, Yong-Gun Shul

“…Based on the experimental data, the rates of the removal of these compounds in this system are higher compared to either the discharge—only system (without the photocatalyst) or the photocatalyst—only system (without high voltage discharge), and the higher rates of degradation of these compounds in the photoelectrocatalytic system are attributed to the reduced rate of electron-hole recombination in TiO2.…”

Analysis and improvement of ZG off-line TTP non-repudiation protocol by LIU Dong-mei1, QING Si-han 2, LI Peng-fei4, LI Shang-jie1

“…Based on the weakness of ZG off-line TTP（trusted third party） non-repudiation protocol because of using pro-tocol deadline, the improvement of the ZG off-line TTP non-repudiation protocol was given, which eliminated the delay-ing resolve request attack and ensured non-repudiation and fairness.Therefore, two kinds of improvement of ZG off-line TTP non-repudiation protocol were given, which had different point of focus.Among them, the first one could eliminate delaying message attack in ZG protocol;the second one also had the property of preventing the abuse of sub-protocol be-sides eliminating delaying message attack.The first one is suitable for electronic payment and certified email, but the second one is suitable for digital contract signature.…”
