Beyond economic growth: the synergistic effects of globalization, environmental policies, and the triple green strategy on environmental sustainability in OECD countries by Xiang Ma, Xiang Ma, Ousama Ben-Salha, Dhouha Choukaier

“…Achieving ecological sustainability requires a comprehensive strategy integrating green energy transition, financial incentives, technological diffusion, and stringent environmental policies. This study investigates the impact of the “Triple Green Strategy”—green energy (GE), green innovation (GI), and green finance (GF)—alongside ecological policies (EP), technological diffusion (TD), economic growth (EG), and globalization (GB) on environmental deterioration (ED) across 34 OECD countries from 1990 to 2022. …”

Interface Engineering Enabled Low Temperature Growth of Magnetic Insulator on Topological Insulator by Nirjhar Bhattacharjee, Krishnamurthy Mahalingam, Alexandria Will‐Cole, Yuyi Wei, Adrian Fedorko, Cynthia T. Bowers, Michael Page, Michael McConney, Don Heiman, Nian Xiang Sun

“…In this work, it is demonstrated that a thin titanium capping layer on TI, followed by oxidation in atmosphere to produce a thin TiOx interfacial layer, protects the TI surface, without significantly compromising spin transport from the magnetic material across the TiOx to the TI surface states. First, it is demonstrated that in Bi2Te3/TiOx/Ni80Fe20 heterostructures, TiOx provides an excellent barrier against diffusion of magnetic species, yet maintains a large spin‐pumping effect. …”

Mini-Publics and Party Ideology: Who Commissioned the Deliberative Wave in Europe? by Ernesto Ganuza, Graham Smith, Rodrigo Ramis-Moyano, Thamy  Pogrebinschi

“…Unlike this previous literature, we have little understanding of whether mini-publics appeal equally across the ideological spectrum. This paper draws on the large-N OECD database to analyse the impact of governing party affiliation on the commissioning of DMPs in Europe across the last four decades. …”

Cross-attention swin-transformer for detailed segmentation of ancient architectural color patterns by Lv Yongyin, Yu Caixia

“…Traditional approaches, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and standard transformer-based models, have achieved significant success; however, they often face challenges in capturing fine-grained details and maintaining efficiency across diverse datasets. These methods struggle with balancing precision and computational efficiency, especially when dealing with complex patterns and high-resolution images.MethodsTo address these limitations, we propose a novel segmentation model that integrates a hierarchical vision transformer backbone with multi-scale self-attention, cascaded attention decoding, and diffusion-based robustness enhancement. …”
