In their Letter “Stop elephant hunting in Tanzania borderlands” (19 July 2024, p. 265), J. Poole et al. object to recent killings of elephants by trophy hunters on the grounds that the targeted animals were important to population sustainability and were part of a long-term research study in Kenya. Although we agree that this elephant…

Emerging wearable devices would benefit from integrating ductile photovoltaic light-harvesting power sources. In this work, we report a small-molecule acceptor (SMA), also known as a non–fullerene acceptor (NFA), designed for stretchable organic solar … Emerging wearable devices would benefit from integrating ductile photovoltaic light-harvesting power sources.

The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity. Accurately determining Al positions has been challenging. We used synchrotron resonant soft x-ray … The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity.
