The design choices of modern generative systems-noise schedules, EMA weights, VQ codebooks, classifier-free guidance, sampling temperature, learning-rate schedules-are generally treated as independent engineering decisions. This paper shows that they all realize a single information-physics structure with two axes: a…

The presence of nanoplastics (NPs) in the environment raises concerns about human exposure, mainly through ingestion. However, little is known about their physicochemical transformations during digestion. This study investigated the behaviour of polystyrene (PS) NPs (350 nm, 500 nm, and a 1:1 mixture) during in vitro…

Herein, BBOT solubility in supercritical carbon dioxide was investigated for the first time over a 12–30 MPa pressure range and a 313 to 343 K temperature range. The experimentally determined molar solubility of BBOT in SC-CO 2 was seen to change within the limits of 0.767 × 10⁻ 6 to 2.881 × 10⁻ 6 at 313 K, 0.406 × 10…
