Phase separation of a microtubule plus-end tracking protein into a fluid fractal network by Czub, MP, Uliana, F, Grubić, T, Padeste, C, Rosowski, KA, Lorenz, C, Dufresne, ER, Menzel, A, Vakonakis, I, Gasser, U, Steinmetz, MO

“…Its liquid condensation likely involves the formation of higher-order oligomers that phase separate in a manner dependent on the protein’s N-terminal CAP-Gly domain and C-terminal EEY/F-like motif. …”

Interpretation of an anomalous peak in low-temperature photoluminescence measurements of bulk GaAs[sub 1−x]N[sub x] on GaAs by Cheah, Weng Kwong, Fan, Weijun, Yoon, Soon Fatt, Loke, Wan Khai, Liu, R., Wee, A. T. S.

“…The band-anticrossing model is used to identify the origins of the two peaks and we propose a model to explain the RTA observations by the concept of increased confinement in areas of higher N concentrations by trapped N localized states. The peak is due to the accumulation of N content near the GaAs/GaAsN interface. …”

High flux strontium atom source by Feng, C. H., Robert, P., Bouyer, P., Canuel, B., Li, Jianing, Das, Swarup, Kwong, Chang Chi, Wilkowski, David, Prevedelli, M., Bertoldi, A.

“…Our approach involves velocity-dependent transverse capture of atoms using a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap. To enhance the atomic flux, we employ tailored magnetic fields that minimize radial beam expansion and incorporate a cascaded Zeeman-slowing configuration utilizing two optical frequencies. …”

Radioactive Atoms and Molecules for Fundamental Physics by Udrescu, Silviu-Marian

“…I will then present the theoretical calculations and the status of an experiment aiming to measure hadronic parity violation using single molecular ions inside a Penning trap. The experiment's goal is to use the external magnetic field provided by the trap to fine-tune molecular energy levels of opposite parity close to degeneracy, thus increasing the signal produced by parity violating nuclear properties. …”

The spreadsheet : is it an asset in an accountants balance sheet? by Heng, Stefanie Gek Hiong, Ng, Jane Sook Yin, Sia, Valerie Puay Khim

“…Hence, plans to increase/maintain market share should perhaps take into account strategic factors like: -building market share quickly, -enticing upgraders to switch, and -preventing existing customers from switching. To cap it all, this project has confirmed the role spreadsheets play in contributing to work performances within the accounting arena and dispelled the "myth" (belief) that Lotus is the leading spreadsheet.…”

Injection moulding of micro droplet generation thermoplastics devices by Goh, Qing Wen

“…The thermal bonding process is a bonding method commonly used in microfluidics, however, the heat from the bonding process causes deformation to the microchannels due to the residual stresses trapped in the microchannels that was induced during the injection moulding process. …”

Antiferromagnetic half-skyrmions and bimerons at room temperature by Jani, H, Lin, J-C, Chen, J, Harrison, J, Maccherozzi, F, Schad, J, Prakash, S, Eom, C-B, Ariando, A, Venkatesan, T, Radaelli, PG

“…Here we realize a family of topological antiferromagnetic spin textures in α-Fe2O3—an Earth-abundant oxide insulator—capped with a platinum overlayer. By exploiting a first-order analogue of the Kibble–Zurek mechanism20,21, we stabilize exotic merons and antimerons (half-skyrmions)8 and their pairs (bimerons)16,22, which can be erased by magnetic fields and regenerated by temperature cycling. …”
