• Methods — the materials, data, and approaches used (experimental, numerical, modeling, and/or machine-learning);
• Results — the main outcomes, with key quantitative findings where possible;
• Conclusions and significance — the principal implications and what the work adds to the field.

Abstracts should be written in clear English, contain no references or footnotes, and not exceed [250–300] words. Please provide [3–5] keywords.

Authors are also welcome to submit a graphical abstract — a single, self-explanatory figure summarizing the main message of the work — should this help convey the contribution.
