The fabrication of energy storage electrode materials with high specific capacitance and rapid charge-discharge capability has become an essential and major issue of concern in recent years. In the present work, sphere-shaped interconnected interlinked binder-free nickel sulfide (NiS) grown on the surface of a three-dimensional nickel foam (3DNF) was fabricated by a one-step solvothermal method under optimized synthesis conditions, including different solvents, amounts of sulfur, and experimental reaction times. The fabricated binder-free SS-NiS@3DNF-E electrodes were characterized by a range of spectroscopic and microscopic techniques and further evaluated for their comparative electrochemical supercapacitive performance in half-cell assembly cells. The optimized sphere-shaped interconnected interlinked binder-free SS-NiS@3DNF-E-3 electrode showed an outstanding specific capacitance of 694.0 F/g compared to SS-NiS@3DNF-E-1 (188.0 F/g), SS-NiS@3DNF-E-2 (470.0 F/g), and SS-NiS@3DNF-E-4 (230.0 F/g) as well as excellent cycling stability up to 88% after 6700 continuous charge-discharge cycles, with an energy density of 24.9 Wh/kg at a power density of 250.93 W/kg. The obtained results demonstrate that the interconnected interlinked binder-free NiS@nickel electrode is a potential candidate for energy storage applications.

Qualitative-archival research is not just "preservation": it shows the potential of providing dynamic and interlinked information, including legal frameworks, policy documents, historical context, and original narratives, capable of supporting policies in the long term. Besides this, it is a potential tool to foster the agency of migrants. Morover, qualitative-archival research can be a powerful tool for social innovation, as conducting qualitative research, based on individual and collective narratives, is a necessary basis to non-emergency policies and to social work planning and evaluation.

Background: Breast cancer is a significant public health issue, with a rising incidence in young women who have more aggressive tumors and a poorer prognosis. In 2022, breast cancer accounted for 20.8% of all cancers in women in Chile, highlighting the urgent need for targeted research and support for young survivors.

How are capital and the family interconnected in contemporary capitalism? In this article, we argue that they come together in owning relations. By owning capital across generations, families bridge the temporal gap between the durability of capital and the finite lifespan of private property holders and thus resolve the problem of bona vacantia. We posit that the ownership of capital influences the structure and practices of families.

The random and variable generation of wind and solar energies, particularly in DC microgrids, leads to undesirable fluctuations in the DC link voltage, consequently decreasing the power quality on the DC side. This issue is exacerbated in independent AC/DC hybrid microgrids, where AC and DC subgrids are interconnected via interlinking converters (ILCs), intensifying the voltage fluctuations and severely impacting power distribution in the AC domain. This article proposes a hybrid battery system integrated with a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system to stabilize voltage fluctuations in the DC link, which occur due to the variable nature of renewable energy sources influenced by weather conditions.

Purpose: To use the "three delays model" as a framework to identify and synthesise qualitative literature that identifies barriers to accessing and utilising P&O services in low-middle-income countries from the perspective of individuals with disabilities and clinicians.
Methods: A systematic search of four databases was used to identify research exploring user and clinician experiences in accessing P&O services in LMICs. Selected search terms and combinations identified through an adapted version of the SPIDER tool were used to identify studies.
