This study investigates the causes of event-dating biases. Two hundred participants provided knowledge ratings and date estimates for 64 news events. Four independent groups dated the same events under different boundary constraints. Analysis across all responses showed that forward telescoping decreased with boundary age, concurring with the boundary-effects model. With guesses removed from the data set, backward telescoping was greatly reduced, but forward telescoping was unaffected by boundaries. This dissociation indicates that multiple factors (e.g., guessing and reconstructive strategies) are responsible for different dating biases and argue against a boundary explanation of forward telescoping.

The study of transient and variable events, including novae, active galactic nuclei, and black hole binaries, has historically been a fruitful path for elucidating the evolutionary mechanisms of our universe. The study of such events in the millimeter and submillimeter is, however, still in its infancy. Submillimeter observations probe a variety of materials, such as optically thick dust, which are hard to study in other wavelengths.

A forward model is developed to predict how the radiance field from a specular surface will be angularly distributed and how samples detected from that field can be used to infer surface profile characteristics. We present lab studies to validate the forward model and demonstrate unresolved object identification and classification.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers are studying the multi-scale interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy to understand the relationships between gas, dust, and star formation in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs).
- The Milky Way's complex structure is influenced by massive stars and dust lanes, making it essential to observe these features at (sub-)millimeter wavelengths for in-depth analysis.
- A proposed 50m single-dish sub-mm telescope called AtLAST aims to provide comprehensive observations of the Galactic Plane and surrounding areas to enhance our understanding of stellar formation, planetary system evolution, and the overall ecology of our Galaxy.

In recent years, there has been significant interest in incorporating micro-actuators into industrial environments; this interest is driven by advancements in fabrication methods. Piezoelectric actuators (PEAs) have emerged as vital components in various applications that require precise control and manipulation of mechanical systems. These actuators play a crucial role in the micro-positioning systems utilized in nanotechnology, microscopy, and semiconductor manufacturing; they enable extremely fine movements and adjustments and contribute to vibration control systems.

Introduction: Treatment of skeletal class II growing patients often requires the use of functional appliances, aimed at promoting mandibular advancement. Among these, Herbst appliance is recommended for its effectiveness, efficiency, and reduced need for compliance. Despite its skeletal favourable effects, well-known dental compensations can occur, especially when the appliance is not used close to the pubertal peak: upper incisors retroclination, lower incisors proclination, upper molars distalization and lower molars mesialization could reduce the overjet needed for a proper mandibular advancement.
