Ultrastable and ultra-accurate clock transitions in open-shell highly charged ions by Chunhai Lyu, Christoph H. Keitel, Zoltán Harman

“…This indicates that having a high-performance optical clock transition is not a property of particular elements, but a virtue host by most elements from the periodic table. Furthermore, at given configurations, the clock transitions in heavy ions scale up to the XUV and soft-x-ray region, and thus enable the development of ultrastable clocks based on shorter wavelengths. …”

Seasonal Macrofaunal Diversity in the Shells of Dead <i>Pinna nobilis</i> Linnaeus, 1758 in Southern Istria by Petra Burić, Neven Iveša, Adrian Brajković, Ante Žunec, Iris Matulja, Ines Kovačić, Andrej Jaklin, Gioconda Millotti, Paolo Paliaga, Emina Pustijanac, Tin Matulja, Moira Buršić

“…A total of 2225 individuals representing 183 species across 19 taxonomic groups were identified, with Malacostraca, Bivalvia, and Polychaeta being the most abundant. Vertically positioned shells hosted significantly more organisms than horizontally positioned ones, likely due to greater available surface area for settlement. …”
