The separation of xenon/krypton (Xe/Kr) mixture is of great importance to industry, but the available porous materials allow the adsorption of both, Xe and Kr only with limited selectivity. Herein we report an anion-pillared ultramicroporous material NbOFFIVE-2-Cu-i (ZU-62) with finely tuned pore aperture size and structure flexibility, which for the first time enables an inverse size-sieving effect in separation along with record Xe/Kr selectivity and ultrahigh Xe capacity. Evidenced by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, the rotation of anions and pyridine rings upon contact of larger-size Xe atoms adapts cavities to the shape/size of Xe and allows strong host-Xe interaction, while the smaller-size Kr is excluded. Breakthrough experiments confirmed that ZU-62 has a real practical potential for producing high-purity Kr and Xe from air-separation byproducts, showing record Kr productivity (206 mL g ) and Xe productivity (42 mL g , in desorption) as well as good recyclability.

Participation of spirilloxanthin in excitation energy transfer in reaction centers from purple bacteria Rhodospirillum rubrum.

The femtosecond dynamics of energy transfer from light-excited spirilloxanthin (Spx) to bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) a in the reaction centers (RCs) of purple photosynthetic bacteria Rhodospirillum rubrum was studied. According to crio-electron microscopy data, Spx is located near accessory BChl a in the B-branch of cofactors. Spx was excited by 25 fs laser pulses at 490 nm, and difference absorption spectra were recorded in the range 500-700 nm.

Horizontal connections in anterior inferior temporal cortex (ITC) are thought to play an important role in object recognition by integrating information across spatially separated functional columns, but their functional organization remains unclear. Using a combination of optical imaging, electrophysiological recording, and anatomical tracing, we investigated the relationship between stimulus-response maps and patterns of horizontal axon terminals in the macaque ITC. In contrast to the "like-to-like" connectivity observed in the early visual cortex, we found that horizontal axons in ITC do not preferentially connect sites with similar object selectivity.

Method: Using data collected from a completed randomized control trial with women who sought safety in a domestic violence shelter (W-DVS; = 172), we conducted a secondary data analysis. Participants completed measures of CA, PTSD severity, and other types of IPV at each time point.
Preferences for facial femininity/masculinity across culture and the sexual orientation spectrum.

Judgments of attractiveness have many important social outcomes, highlighting the need to understand how people form these judgments. One aspect of appearance that impacts perceptions of attractiveness is facial femininity/masculinity (sexual dimorphism). However, extant research has focused primarily on White, Western, heterosexual participants' preferences for femininity/masculinity in White faces, limiting generalizability.

Sexual sadism has long been of interest to scholars and clinicians in psychology, and most research on sexual sadism has focused on forensic samples. However, recently, research has uncovered the existence of sexual sadism in general populations. Measures designed to assess sexual sadism in the general population are lacking.
