Manipulating polarization attenuation in NbS2–NiS2 nanoflowers through homogeneous heterophase interface engineering toward microwave absorption with shifted frequency bands by Yiru Fu, Yuping Wang, Junye Cheng, Yao Li, Jing Wang, Yongheng Jin, Deqing Zhang, Guangping Zheng, Maosheng Cao

“…Herein, we construct NbS2–NiS2 heterostructures with NiS2 nanoparticles uniformly grown in NbS2 hollow nanospheres, and such particular structure enhances the interfacial polarization. The strong electron transfer at the interface promotes electron transport throughout the material, which results in less scattering, promotes conduct ion loss and dielectric polarization relaxation, improves dielectric loss, and results in a good impedance matching of the material. …”

Tailor-Made, Linear, and “Comb-Like” Polyester-Based Copolymers: Synthesis, Characterization, and Thermal Behavior of Potential 3D-Printing/Electrospinning Candidates by Franco L. Redondo, Mario D. Ninago, Augusto G. O. de Freitas, Cristiano Giacomelli, Andrés E. Ciolino, Marcelo A. Villar

“…The macromolecular structure exerts a noticeable effect on the PCL block behavior when compared to the PCL homopolymer, at least for the temperature range studied (16–24°C): less differences in thermal properties were observed for linear block copolymers, whereas for “comb-like” graft copolymers their final crystallization capacity strongly depends on the presence of branches. For both sets of copolymers, the decrease in the resulting melting temperatures and the increase in the half-life crystallization time values might be useful processing parameters, particularly if these copolymers are planned for using as an alternative source of 3D printing or electrospinning materials.…”

Research on Design Indicators for Graded Crushed Stone Mixture Based on Vibration Molding Method by Li-biao Chen, Er-hu Yan, Jian Xu, Tao Ma, Jun-cheng Zeng, Yan Gong

“…Further, the performance indexes got by the modified vibration compaction and the modified Proctor compaction have strong correlations. Therefore, based on the modified vibration compaction, the guidelines for standardized mix design of graded crushed stone mixture in Fujian province are proposed: the resilient modulus of 300 MPa and the deformation rate of 10–8 in the dynamic triaxial test are used as the performance indicators of the bearing capacity and the antideformation ability; the shear strength of 400 kPa in the static triaxial test is used as the performance indicators of the shear failure resistance. …”

Single-cell transcriptomes of dissecting the intra-tumoral heterogeneity of breast cancer microenvironment by Peixian Chen, Kaifeng Liang, Xiaofan Mao, Qiuyuan Wu, Zhiyan Chen, Yabin Jin, Kairong Lin, Tiancheng He, Shuqing Yang, Huiqi Huang, Guolin Ye, Juntao Gao, Dan Zhou, Zhihao Zeng

“…In macrophages, two mainly tumor associated macrophages (TAMs), TAM1 and TAM2, were also detected and the highly variable genes in TAM2 were strongly enriched in IFN-α and IFN-γ. The changes of lipid metabolism pathways in macrophages are closely related to the microenvironment of breast cancer. …”

Pakistan-Russia Relations within the Framework of the SCO: A Regional Analysis by Hira Yaqoob, Abeeda Qureshi

“… Pakistan and Russia have shared geographical proximity, but historically, this proximity did not translate into extensive cooperation due to Pakistan's alignment with the Western bloc during the Cold War and India’s strong relations with Russia. Pakistan's official membership in the Russian-cofounded Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) in 2017 marked a significant development in bilateral relations. …”

Factors Influencing Post-Study Employment by International Graduates of Regional Universities (Case of Northwestern Federal District of the Russian Federation) by M. Yu. Makhotaeva, O. A. Bakumenko

“…As a result of the analysis of foreign experience, the authors come to a conclusion that locally-trained international graduates’ employment is an effective tool for replacing the migration outflow from the periphery to megalopolises. A strong positive correlation is proved between the share of international graduates in the normalized student body and the rate of migration growth for the period 2015–2020 in the peripheral subjects in the Northwestern federal district of the Russian Federation. …”

“…The navigational task showed shorter average blink durations (204.236-1656.397 ms) and fewer blinks (1.987-9.786) compared to the informative task (553.598-1864.440 ms; 9.648-20.040 blinks, respectively). Strong interaction effects were observed between average fixation duration and individual position in both navigational (ηp2 = .216) and informative (ηp2 = .176) tasks. …”
