Spin selective filtering of polariton condensate flow by Gao, T., Antón, C., Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Martín, M. D., Hatzopoulos, Z., Viña, L., Eldridge, P. S., Savvidis, P. G.

“…Spin-selective spatial filtering of propagating polariton condensates, using a controllable spin-dependent gating barrier, in a one-dimensional semiconductor microcavity ridge waveguide is reported. A nonresonant laser beam provides the source of propagating polaritons, while a second circularly polarized weak beam imprints a spin dependent potential barrier, which gates the polariton flow and generates polariton spin currents. …”

Fracture energy and mechanical properties of toughened epoxy resin with eggshell powder by Fong, Collin, Sugiman, Sugiman, Chin, Desmond, Ahmad, Hilton

“…Dog-bone specimens were fabricated to investigate the mechanical properties of TEEP (i.e. elastic modulus, Poisson’s ratios and tensile strength) and tested under quasi-static tensile loading. Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) and End-Notched Flexure (ENF) tests were used to determine the mode I and Mode II fracture energies of TEEP specimens, respectively. …”

Probing transverse momentum dependent structures with azimuthal dependence of energy correlators by Kang, Zhong-Bo, Lee, Kyle, Shao, Ding Yu, Zhao, Fanyi

“…We study the azimuthal angle dependence of the energy-energy correlators $$\langle \mathcal{E}\left({\widehat{n}}_{1}\right)\mathcal{E}\left({\widehat{n}}_{2}\right)\rangle $$ in the back-to-back region for e+e− annihilation and deep inelastic scattering (DIS) processes with general polarization of the proton beam. We demonstrate that the polarization information of the beam and the underlying partons from the hard scattering is propagated into the azimuthal angle dependence of the energy-energy correlators. …”
