Robustness checks and reproduction of analyses with existing and updated data based on 110 articles in economics and political science journals with data and code-sharing requirements found high levels of robustness and reproducibility and determined that robustness was not dependent on author characteristics or data availability.

When 100 social and behavioural science claims were examined, 34% of reanalyses closely matched the original results, with 74% reaching the same conclusion, revealing limited robustness of single-path analyses and the need to address analytical uncertainty.

Ferroelectric ordering of moiré excitons and collective photon emission emerge in WSe₂/WS₂ heterobilayers near the Mott state driven by strong dipolar interactions and a transition to symmetry-broken ferroelectric phases.

Phase transitions in Na layered transition metal oxide materials involving slab gliding and considerable lattice parameter changes limit the battery cycling life, especially at high voltages. Here, authors pre-engineer 15.8% O-type stacking faults to a P-type Na0.7Mn0.8Ni0.2O2, improving stability and enabling an electrode specific energy of 635 Wh kg-1 with 600-cycle life.

Boracyclobutenes and their benzannulated derivatives are a rare class of highly reactive compounds, of which only a few examples have been sporadically obtained by thermal routes. Now, a photochemical strategy provides reliable access to a broad scope of bench-stable boron heterocycles.

The mechanisms by which tillandsioids adapt to elevated aerial habitats remain largely unexplored. Here, the authors report their evolution and link life history, diversification, comparative genomic, and functional changes to processes underlying the unique biology of air plants.

Hypericum plants contain complex compounds with promising medicinal properties. Here, the authors report a pair of enzymes catalyzing prenylation and regiodivergent cyclization. The forged scaffolds are characteristic of hyperforin analogs.

Authors perform an in vivo mass spectrometry-based interactome analysis of HOIL-1-interacting protein, a key component of linear ubiquitination assembly complex.

This study provides insights into how shade induces leaf senescence in soybean. The reduction of blue light intensity deactivates GmCRY1s, leading to the degradation of GmRGAs and the upregulation of WRKY100, ultimately promoting leaf senescence.

HfO₂-based ferroelectric films are attracting a great deal of attention. Here, the authors conclude that the performance degradation and the possible rejuvenation are ascribed to the reversible transition between polar and antipolar phases.

Introduction of any interface will inevitably lead to a decrease in carrier mobility. Here, authors employ atomic layer deposition technology to construct composite phase interfaces, decoupling the interrelated thermoelectric parameters in n-type ZrNiSn materials.

Here the authors have developed a superconducting microwave frequency comb that is fully integrated, easy to manufacture, and operates with ultra-low power consumption, and could significantly advance microwave photonics and quantum processor integration.

Toroidic phases and their phase transitions are notoriously hard to study in natural materials. Now, a direct-kagome spin ice provides access to two low-temperature toroidal phases, ferrotoroidicity and paratoroidicity, as well as to toroidic phase transitions.

The authors study Josephson junctions where the weak link is a NiTe₂ flake. They find that in-plane magnetic field in a particular direction causes the supercurrent to concentrate in the edges of the flake, excluding the bulk. They further argue that the supercurrent is carried by higher-order hinge states.

Hydropower development in the Yarlung-Tsangpo Grand Canyon, Southeastern Himalayas, can stabilize runoff regimes, enhance flood control capacity and support ecosystem stability, according to an analysis of hydrological model projections under a range of future scenarios.

Metabolic rewiring during tachycardia promotes tissue hypoxia, elevated glucose utilization and the suppression of oxidative phosphorylation, driving contractile dysfunction.

The most up-to-date combination of results on the properties of the Higgs boson is reported, which indicate that its properties are consistent with the standard model predictions, within the precision achieved to date.

The CMS Collaboration reports evidence for off-shell Higgs boson contributions in the production of Z boson pairs, and measures the width of the Higgs boson, which is inversely related to its lifetime.

The CMS Collaboration reports the study of three simultaneous hard interactions between quarks and gluons in proton–proton collisions. This manifests through the concurrent production of three J/ψ mesons, which consist of a charm-quark–antiquark pair.

A high-precision, high-field test of quantum electrodynamics measuring the bound-electron g factor in hydrogen-like tin is described, which—together with state-of-the-art theory calculations—yields a stringent test in the strong-field regime.

The ATLAS Collaboration reports the observation of the electroweak production of two jets and a Z-boson pair. This process is related to vector-boson scattering and allows the nature of electroweak symmetry breaking to be probed.

Interactions of atmospheric neutrinos with quantum-gravity-induced fluctuations of the metric of spacetime would lead to decoherence. The IceCube Collaboration constrains such interactions with atmospheric neutrinos.

The ATLAS Collaboration reports a measurement of the ratio of the decay rates of W bosons to τ leptons and muons, in agreement with universal lepton couplings as postulated in the standard model of particle physics.
