Article Synopsis
  • The 2022 Gordon Cain Conference brought together participants to discuss the connections between the science of labor and the labor of science, focusing on themes of vulnerability, affect, and interdependence.
  • A key theme that emerged was "invisibility," leading to the creation of a collaborative syllabus aimed at examining historical and contemporary perspectives on scientific labor.
  • The syllabus features six thematic modules that aim to challenge traditional notions of invisible labor, confront gendered labor practices, and promote a more inclusive understanding of the history of science.

Article Synopsis
  • The article explores how a novel awareness of history developed in Germany around 1800, viewing mountains as symbols of a collective past.
  • It examines the contributions of Johann Christian Rosenmüller in the context of his paleontological debates regarding large mammal bones, highlighting his efforts to bridge elite scientific discussions and public understanding.
  • Rosenmüller's portrayal of a native "cave bear" not only illuminated Germany's ancient past but also fostered a sense of national identity rooted in the country's natural heritage.

A tight-binding model Hamiltonian is newly parametrized for silicon carbide based on fits to a database of energy points calculated within the density functional theory approach of the electronic energy surfaces of nanoclusters and the total energy of bulk 3C and 2H polytypes at different densities. This TB model includes s and p angular momentum symmetries with nonorthogonal atomic basis functions. With the aid of the new TB model, minima of silicon carbide cagelike clusters, nanotubes, ring-shaped ribbons, and nanowires are predicted.
