ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means?
The arrest of David Huerta, president of SEIU-USWW and SEIU California,
by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Friday
is going to have a major impact on the coming months as deportations continue.
Unions in California are different from those in other places.
More than any state in our troubled country, their ranks are filled with people of color and immigrants.

ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means?
Unions in California are different from many in the U.S. because they are predominately people of color and immigrants. The arrest of a union president in L.A. will likely activate these unions to become powerful forces of nonviolent protest.

Autoreifen sind Hauptquelle für Nanoplastik in den Alpen
Alpengletscher sind stark mit Nanoplastik aus Autoreifen belastet. Neue Studien prüfen, ob dies ein globales Problem ist.

The Flat-Space Limit of AdS Coupled to a Bath
We explain how to take a well-defined flat-space limit of brane models of AdS coupled to a non-gravitating bath. In the dual BCFT this amounts to a triple-scaling limit where both the number of boundary degrees of freedom and the boundary coupling are taken to infinity while the BCFT boundary piecewise approaches a lightcone. We show how this procedure acts on the conformal generators as a Wigner-İnönü contraction, reducing the global BCFT symmetry algebra to the global symmetry algebra of f…

Existentially closed measure-preserving actions of approximately treeable groups
Given a countable group $Γ$, letting $\mathcal{K}_Γ$ denote the class of {\pmp} actions of $Γ$, we study the question of when the model companion of $\mathcal{K}_Γ$ exists. Berenstein, Henson, and Ibarlucía showed that the model companion of $\mathcal{K}_Γ$ exists when $Γ$ is a nonabelian free group on a countable number of generators. We significantly generalize their result by showing that the model companion of $\cal K_Γ$ exists whenever $Γ$ is an approximately treeable group. The c…

Scientists find millions of tons of nanoplastics in the North Atlantic Ocean
Scientists have measured the amount of nanoplastics in the open ocean for the first time and found they make up the vast majority of marine plastic pollution. Plastic debris in the ocean can be of varying sizes. Nanoplastics are the tiniest, about 1,000 times smaller than the smallest microplastics — small enough to go through […]

#Nanoplastik kann bei Mäusen die #Darmschleimhaut durchlässiger machen und das #Mikrobiom aus dem Gleichgewicht bringen.

Auf welche Weise Nanoplastik der Darmgesundheit schaden könnte
Eine Studie an Mäusen zeigt, dass kleinste Teilchen aus Polystyrol die Darmschleimhaut durchlässiger machen dürften. Zudem stören sie das Gleichgewicht der Darmbakterien
