Ballistic spin transport in exciton gases by Kavokin, A. V., Vladimirova, M., Jouault, B., Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Leonard, J. R., Butov, L. V.

“…We present the theory of exciton ballistic spin transport which may be applied to a range of systems supporting bosonic spin transport, in particular to indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells. We describe the effect of spin-orbit interaction for the electron and the hole on the exciton spin, account for the Zeeman effect induced by external magnetic fields and long-range and short-range exchange splittings of the exciton resonances. …”

Molecular characterisation of alpha-thalassaemia in patients investigated for hypochromic microcytic indices in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia by Vijian, Divashini

“…Deletional or non-deletional mutations of one or both HBA1 and HBA2 on chromosome 16 cause a reduction/abnormal in the production of α globin chains, a component of haemoglobin (Hb) which are required for the formation of red blood cells (RBC). Thus, reduced Hb leads to anaemia. Many genetic mutations in α- thalassaemia have been discovered, which produced wide spectrum of clinical manifestation, ranging from asymptomatic to lethal. …”
