Quartic potentials play an important role in a broad range of fields in the Bose–Einstein Condensation (BEC) literature, from optical lattices to vortices and even to the quantum phase transitions. This also makes the study of thermodynamic properties of systems confined by these potentials...

There has been growing scholarly interest in understanding individual-level antecedents of counterproductive workplace behavior (CWB). While researchers have found a positive relationship between individuals’ negative affect and engagement in CWB, to date, our understanding of the factors...
