Cyanobacterial UV Pigments Evolved to Optimize Photon Dissipation Rather than Photoprotection by Aleksandar Simeonov, Karo Michaelian

“…Since photoprotection is not dependent on absorption, such a scenario could imply selection of photon dissipation rather than photoprotection over the evolutionary history of life, consistent with the thermodynamic dissipation theory of the origin and evolution of life which suggests that the most important hallmark of biological evolution has been the covering of Earth’s surface with organic pigment molecules and water to absorb and dissipate ever more completely the prevailing surface solar spectrum. …”

Relationship Between Pore-Size Distribution and 1D Compressibility of Different Reconstituted Clays Based on Fractal Theory by Yanhao Zheng, Tanfang Zhu, Junqi Chen, Kun Shan, Junru Li

“…This is associated with distinct pore size evolution patterns under 1D loading while also emphasising the crucial role of mesopores in macroscopic clay deformation. (2) Fractal dimensions increase with loading, reflecting the progressive refinement of the pore structure, with natural Shenzhen clay demonstrating the most pronounced change. (3) A mathematical relationship between fractal dimension and 1D compressibility is established for each clay type, providing a quantitative tool for predicting 1D compressibility based on fractal dimensions. (4) The testing procedures and methods to ensure the representativeness of pore structure analysis are elaborated, ensuring reliable PSD data. …”
