1. KiDS-Legacy: Covariance validation and the unified <sc>OneCovariance</sc> framework for projected large-scale structure observables 

   Reischke, Robert; Unruh, Sandra; Asgari, Marika; et al. (2025)

   Astronomy & Astrophysics

   We introduce OneCovariance, an open-source software designed to accurately compute covariance matrices for an arbitrary set of two-point summary statistics across a variety of large-scale structure tracers. Utilising the halo model, we estimated the statistical properties of matter and biased tracer fields, incorporating all Gaussian, non-Gaussian, and super-sample covariance terms. The flexible configuration permits user-specific parameters, ...

2. A Strategy to Prevent Fluorine-Induced Transition Metal Dissolution in Lithium-Ion Batteries 

   Kim, Yeonju; Moysiadou, Aliki; Egorov, Konstantin; et al. (2025)

   Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research

   Increasing the upper cut-off potential of NMC811 electrodes beyond 4.3 V versus Li/Li+ offers the potential to increase the specific energy of lithium-ion battery cells by 20%. However, high-voltage operation typically leads to accelerated aging resulting from a combination of degradation phenomena that are difficult to deconvolute. This study focuses on isolating the impact of electrolyte salt decomposition by replacing the unstable ...

3. Jet Rates in Higgs Boson Decay at Third Order in QCD 

   Fox, Elliot; Ridder, Aude Gehrmann-De; Gehrmann, Thomas; et al. (2025)

   Physical Review Letters

   We compute the production rates for two, three, four, and five jets in the hadronic decay of a Higgs boson in its two dominant decay modes to bottom quarks and gluons to third order in the QCD coupling constant. The five-, four-, and three-jet rates are obtained from a next-to-next-to-leading order calculation of Higgs decay to three jets, while the two-jet rate is inferred at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order from the inclusive decay ...

4. Investigating the sensitivity difference of gaseous and particulate carbon in two-phase sample transport in LA-ICP-MS 

   Brunnbauer, Lukas; Gibbs, David Ken; Gunther, Detlef; et al. (2025)

   Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry

   LA-ICP-MS is a widely used analytical technique for elemental analysis of different solid samples, including carbon-based samples. To compensate for matrix-effects and instrumental drifts during analysis, application of an internal standard is recommended. For carbon-based samples, the application of carbon as an internal standard seems reasonable but is typically not recommended due to the so-called two-phase sample transport where ablated ...

5. Gut microbiota-derived TMAVA is a modulator of acute CNS-GVHD 

   Chatterjee, Sangya; Rueckert, Tamina; Martin, Ina; et al. (2025)

   Journal of Experimental Medicine

   Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) can affect the central nervous system (CNS) through microglial activation and T cell infiltration, but the role of gut microbiota in CNS-aGVHD remains unclear. Here, we investigated the role of microbiota in microglial activation during aGVHD using antibiotic-treated specific pathogen-free (SPF), germ-free (GF), and wildling mice. Antibiotic-mediated microbiota depletion led to infiltration of ...
