Overcoming thermal quenching in X-ray scintillators through multi-excited state switching by Wang, Min, Zhang, Zhongbo, Lyu, Jing, Qiu, Jian, Gu, Chang, Zhao, He, Wang, Tao, Ren, Yiwen, Yang, Shuo-Wang, Xu, Guo Qin, Liu, Xiaogang

“…The structure of perovskite provides a platform to modulate the luminescence centers. The rigid framework constructed by this perovskite structure stabilized its triplet states, resulting in TpyBiCl5 exhibiting an approximately 12 times higher (45 % vs. 3.8 %) photoluminescence quantum yield of room temperature phosphorescence than that of its organic ligand (Tpy). …”

Nucleon Electromagnetic Form Factors at Large Momentum Transfer from Lattice QCD by Syritsyn, Sergey, Engelhardt, Michael, Green, Jeremy, Krieg, Stefan, Negele, John, Pochinsky, Andrew

“…Abstract Nucleon form factors at large momentum transfer are important for understanding the transition from nonperturbative to perturbative QCD and have been the focus of experiment and phenomenology. We calculate proton and neutron electromagnetic form factors $$G_{E,M}(Q^2)$$ G E , M ( Q 2 ) from first principles using nonperturbative methods of lattice QCD. …”
