TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that two cultural forces combine in advanced industrial societies to create a new sort of sex segregation regime: gender essentialist ideology and self-expressive value systems, which create opportunities and incentives for the expression of gender identities.
Abstract: Data from 44 societies are used to explore sex segregation by field of study. Contrary to accounts linking socioeconomic modernization to a “degendering” of public‐sphere institutions, sex typing of curricular fields is stronger in more economically developed contexts. The authors argue that two cultural forces combine in advanced industrial societies to create a new sort of sex segregation regime. The first is gender‐essentialist ideology, which has proven to be extremely resilient even in the most liberal‐egalitarian of contexts; the second is self‐expressive value systems, which create opportunities and incentives for the expression of “gendered selves.” Multivariate analyses suggest that structural features of postindustrial labor markets and modern educational systems support the cultivation, realization, and display of gender‐specific curricular affinities.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that holographic entanglement entropy can be calculated at arbitrary orders in the bulk Planck constant using the concept of a "quantum extremal surface", i.e., a surface which extremizes the generalized entropy.
Abstract: We propose that holographic entanglement entropy can be calculated at arbitrary orders in the bulk Planck constant using the concept of a “quantum extremal surface”: a surface which extremizes the generalized entropy, i.e. the sum of area and bulk entanglement entropy. At leading order in bulk quantum corrections, our proposal agrees with the formula of Faulkner, Lewkowycz, and Maldacena, which was derived only at this order; beyond leading order corrections, the two conjectures diverge. Quantum extremal surfaces lie outside the causal domain of influence of the boundary region as well as its complement, and in some spacetimes there are barriers preventing them from entering certain regions. We comment on the implications for bulk reconstruction.

TL;DR: Primary test found that mesoporous MoO(2) material exhibits a reversible electrochemical lithium storage capacity as high as 750 mA h g(-1) at C/20 after 30 cycles, rendering it as a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries.
Abstract: Highly ordered mesoporous crystalline MoO(2) materials with bicontinuous Ia3d mesostructure were synthesized by using phosphomolybdic acid as a precursor and mesoporous silica KIT-6 as a hard template in a 10% H(2) atmosphere via nanocasting strategy. The prepared mesoporous MoO(2) material shows a typical metallic conductivity with a low resistivity ( approximately 0.01Omega cm at 300 K), which makes it different from all previously reported mesoporous metal oxides materials. Primary test found that mesoporous MoO(2) material exhibits a reversible electrochemical lithium storage capacity as high as 750 mA h g(-1) at C/20 after 30 cycles, rendering it as a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on molecular-dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones liquids sheared between two solid walls and show that the degree of slip is directly related to the amount of structure induced in the fluid by the periodic potential from the solid walls.
Abstract: We report on molecular-dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones liquids sheared between two solid walls. The velocity fields, flow boundary conditions, and fluid structure were studied for a variety of wall and fluid properties. A broad spectrum of boundary conditions was observed including slip, no-slip, and locking. We show that the degree of slip is directly related to the amount of structure induced in the fluid by the periodic potential from the solid walls. For weak wall-fluid interactions there is little ordering and slip was observed. At large interactions, substantial epitaxial ordering was induced and the first one or two fluid layers became locked to the wall. This epitaxial ordering was enhanced when the wall and fluid densities were equal. For unequal densities, high-order commensurate structures formed in the first fluid layer creating slip within the fluid.

TL;DR: In this article, the fractal dimension of colloidal aggregates of small silica particles is measured by both light and x-ray scattering, showing that the aggregates are fractal.
Abstract: Measurement of the fractal dimension, $D$, of colloidal aggregates of small silica particles is reported. We observe power-law decay of the structure factor $[S(k)\ensuremath{\sim}{k}^{\ensuremath{-}D}]$ by both light and x-ray scattering showing that the aggregates are fractal. $D$ is found to be 2.12\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05, which is intermediate between recent numerical results for the kinetic models of diffusion-limited aggregation ($D=2.5$) and cluster aggregation ($D=1.75$), but is rather close to the value for lattice animals ($D=2.0$), which are equilibrium structures.
