Magnetobound positronium and protonium
This article investigates the formation of magnetobound positronium and protonium via classical trajectory simulations of binary point charge interactions in an external magnetic field. The results of computer simulations of the fully three-dimensional trajectories of classical and non-relativistic point charges with the same mass, equal charge magnitude, and opposite sign are reported. The simulations show the formation of magnetobound positronium and protonium. The results yield formation cross sections, which are compared to analytical expressions. Additionally, the results reveal that magnetobound states drift across magnetic field lines.
SPHK1 regulates proliferation and survival responses in triple-negative breast cancer

Antiviral Activity of Metal-Containing Polymers—Organotin and Cisplatin-Like Polymers
This article examines the use of metal-containing polymers as a novel class of antivirals.

The mechanisms responsible for the antitumor activity include inducing a delay in cell proliferation and sister chromatid exchanges blocking tumor growth.
