Diagnosis of sunscreen residue on skin with portable Raman microscope by Li, Yihan

“…It is well known that ultraviolet ray (UVR) irradiation can cause cutaneous damage, hence dermatologists encourage people to use sunscreen to absorb or reflect a number of the sun's UV radiation on the skin exposed to sunlight. In recent years, sunscreen is extensively used in our daily life to protect the damage to our skin by the sun. …”

Lattice Encoding of Cyclic Codes from Skew-polynomial Rings by Ducoat, Jérôme, Oggier, Frédérique

“…We propose a construction of lattices from cyclic codes from skew-polynomial rings. This construction may be seen as a variation of Construction A of lattices from linear codes, obtained from quotients of orders in cyclic division algebras. …”

Reconstituting ring-rafts in bud-mimicking topography of model membranes by Ryu, Yong-Sang, Lee, In-Ho, Suh, Jeng-Hun, Park, Seung Chul, Oh, Soojung, Jordan, Luke R., Wittenberg, Nathan J., Oh, Sang-Hyun, Jeon, Noo Li, Lee, Byoungho, Parikh, Atul N., Lee, Sin-Doo

“…In all cases, in addition to the generation or relief of the curvature stress, the buds recruit specific lipids and proteins from the donor membrane through restricted diffusion for the development of a ring-type raft domain of closed topology. Here, by reconstituting the bud topography in a model membrane, we demonstrate the preferential localization of cholesterol- and sphingomyelin-enriched microdomains in the collar band of the bud-neck interfaced with the donor membrane. …”

The computational complexity of finding stationary points in non-convex optimization by Hollender, A, Zampetakis, M

“…<p>Finding approximate stationary points, i.e., points where the gradient is approximately zero, of non-convex but smooth objective functions f over unrestricted d-dimensional domains is one of the most fundamental problems in classical non-convex optimization. …”

A common supersolid skin covering both water and ice by Zhang, Xi, Huang, Yongli, Ma, Zengsheng, Zhou, Yichun, Zheng, Weitao, Zhou, Ji, Sun, Changqing

“…This relaxation–polarization process enhances the dipole moment, elasticity, viscosity, and thermal stability of these skins with a 25% density loss, which is responsible for the hydrophobicity and toughness of the water skin and results in the slippery behavior of ice.…”
