The emotional compound of information and its volume estimation by M. Yu. Sverdlov

“…The obtained results are the following: a relative share of the pragmatic component promptly decreases at the background of rapid growth of digital information amount; the emotional component of information messages and flows is the most significant while measuring their amount and quality; it is offered to estimate the degree of the information resource emotional efficiency by means of an aggregative dimensionless indicator; saturation of information messages and flows with an emotional component should determine further tendencies of upgrading the information space, including library resources.…”

Numerical Study of the Passive Motion of Airfoils in Porous Media by J. Tang, Z. Zhou, Y. Zhang, B. Moghtaderi, Y. Wang

“…Permeability (α), ranging from 10−12 m2 to 10−8 m2, indicates the ease with which fluid can pass through the porous medium and is a key factor in determining the flow resistance. Both porosity and permeability play crucial roles in the flow field and aerodynamic performance of the airfoil, and their interaction jointly regulates the formation of flow patterns and propulsion efficiency. …”

8-Anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate-Conjugated Carbon-Coated Ferrite Nanodots for Fluoromagnetic Imaging, Smart Drug Delivery, and Biomolecular Sensing by Anbazhagan Thirumalai, Koyeli Girigoswami, Alex Daniel Prabhu, Pazhani Durgadevi, Venkatakrishnan Kiran, Agnishwar Girigoswami

“…Background: Superparamagnetic properties and excitation independence have been incorporated into carbon-decorated manganese ferrite nanodots (MnFe@C) to introduce an economical and safer multimodal agent for use in both T1-T2 MRI and fluorescence-based imaging to replace the conventional highly toxic heavy metal contrast agents. Methods: The surface conjugation of 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS) to MnFe@C nanodots (ANS-MnFe@C) enhances both longitudinal and transverse MRI relaxation, improves fluorescence for optical imaging, and increases protein detection sensitivity, showing higher multimodal efficacy in terms of molar relaxivity, radiant efficiencies, and fluorescence sensitivity compared to MnFe@C. …”
