Self‐Organized Metal‐Carbon Multilayers Formed by Ion Beam Induced Deposition from Trimethyl(methylcyclopentadienyl)platinum(IV)
Ion beam induced deposition (IBID) of MeCpPtMe3 using low-energy Ar+ and H2+ generates self-organized multilayers of Pt and C, in marked contrast to the homogeneous deposits created by typical IBID a....

This is awesome! The sign at Trump’s Doonbeg, Ireland golf course has been vandalized to remove the “T”. I barely had time to snap the photo as we drove past. Gotta love the Irish!

If you're a grad student or an undergrad interested in research I need to you listen to me very carefully.
You cannot learn to write good research papers if you do not read good research papers.
Stop asking LLMs to summarize papers for you.

In the U.S. in 1825, *452* out of 1000 children born died before their 5th birthday.
By 1925, that number was 135 out of a 1000 children.
Today, in 2025, that number is *7*
And it is entirely due to advances in medicine, public health, and technology.

Thanks Ted!
U.S. Senator Ted Cruz has made an appearance at the Final Four championship game, despite fans claiming that when the Texas senator attends the game for the team he is rooting for, they are "cursed" and lose the game.
