Epitaxial Stabilization and Emergent Charge Order in Copper Selenide Thin Films
We demonstrate epitaxial growth of copper selenide (Cu$_{2-x}$Se) thin films in both cubic and rhombohedral phases, achieved via molecular beam epitaxy on Al$_2$O$_3$ (001) substrates. Remarkably, the high-temperature cubic phase -- which in bulk transforms into the rhombohedral structure below 400 K -- is stabilized at room temperature and below, well outside its bulk equilibrium stability range. In the cubic phase films, temperature-dependent electrical transport reveals a pronounced, hystere…

Apache Flink is uniquely positioned to serve as the backbone for AI agents, equipping them with the powerful new tool of stream processing. Join Steffen Hoellinger at this year's Berlin Buzzwords to explore how Flink jobs can be transformed into “Agents”—autonomous, goal-driven entities that dynamically interact with data streams, trigger actions, and adapt their behaviour based on real-time insights.

Alarming escalation in attacks on journalists amid political crisis in Serbia - Committee to Protect Journalists
Berlin, June 3, 2025—What journalists called a “witch hunt” atmosphere against government critics in Serbia one year ago has since escalated into a rise in attacks and threats against the press, following a deadly railway station collapse in November 2024 that triggered a widespread anti-corruption movement. Initial protests demanding accountability for the tragedy have turned...

This survey has a few hours of life left, but I've gone ahead and chosen "Innocuous In Innisfil." That feels right and suits my general objective to be harmless and not give offense or arouse strong feelings. Although I've failed that objective on occasion.

Hello!
I have a happy favour to ask.
Last year, I had a US intern working with us and she now is looking for help that you- good reader of this account- could give.
(She needs academic survey participants)

Research Study on Data Privacy and Collective Redress
A researcher at University College Dublin wants to conduct anonymous interviews to learn about why you would or would not participate in a legal action to rectify a data protection violation. This information can be used to help nonprofit organizations better represent you when organizations violate your data protection rights. Provide your email to receive more information. All personally identifiable information will be deleted following completion of the study.
