Front Cover: A model that can predict the evolving molecular weight distributions of star polymers undergoing mechanochemical degradation is developed. In the foreground of the cover image, a 3D plot shows the distributions obtained with this model for a theoretical four‐arm star polymer. In the background, the equations pertaining to the model are presented. Further details can be found in the article by G. I. Peterson and A. J. Boydston* on page 555 .
