Consequences of fine-tuning for fifth force searches

Abstract Light bosonic fields mediate long range forces between objects.If these fields have FEM-ADAPT self-interactions, i.e., non-quadratic terms in the potential, the experimental constraints on such forces can be drastically altered due to a screening (chameleon) or enhancement effect.We explore how technically natural values for such self-inte

Development and evaluation of an augmented reality serious game to enhance 21st century skills in cultural tourism

Abstract Cultural tourism plays a significant role in preserving traditions and promoting global awareness.However, engaging younger generations with cultural heritage through traditional tourism methods remains challenging, as traditional tourism methods are often perceived as lacking the interactivity and engagement characteristic of digital expe

Wide-Spectrum Biomimetic Antimicrobial Systems

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are effective components of the host SKIRTS immune response and are widely distributed throughout nature.Recently, nontoxic antimicrobial polymers that mimic the structures of naturally occurring AMPs have been designed and are under development commercially as novel therapeutics.These compounds have several potential
