Influence of the exchange symmetry beyond the exclusion principle by Tennie, F

“…In particular, we <em>analytically</em> study the (quasi-)pinning effect which corresponds to a saturation of the GPCs and imposes structural simplifications on the <em>N</em>-fermion state. …”

Somatosensory and clinical profiles of patients with spine-related and clinical framework-based neck–arm pain by Kapitza, C, Ballenberger, N, Luedtke, K, Schmid, AB, Tampin, B

“…Symptom descriptors, such as burning (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.031), tingling (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.018), pins and needles (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.031), numbness (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.016), spontaneous pain (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.001), and electric pain/shock (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.026) were more common in the radicular/radiculopathy groups compared with the somatic/mechanosensitivity groups. …”

Robust deep learning methods for accountable contrast-agent-free CMR imaging in clinical applications by Gonzales, RA

Mechanics of fracture and flexure in Antarctic ice sheets and ice shelves by Zhang, H

“…In grounding zones and floating ice shelves, ice fracturing is often associated with flexure modulated by ocean tides and subglacial water flow, as well as stresses created by shearing, such as pinning points. Fracture and flexure significantly affect the vulnerability of Antarctic ice shelves to hydrofracturing and, by altering buttressing effects, the mass balance of the entire Antarctic Ice Sheet. …”

Enlightening of the low-dimensional high-TC superconductivity: bond contraction and electron dual polarization [低维高温超导的启示: 键收缩与电子双重极化] by Sun, Chang Qing

“…Second, atomic undercoordination of the O-Cu chains and the O-Cu planes shortens and stiffens the local O-Cu bond and lengthens and weakens the O:Cup nonbonding interactions associated with further enhancement of the Cup dipoles polarization, this process is the same as the O:H-O bond relaxation and polarization occurred to the skins of water and ice. Last, the electronphonon interaction is realized by the undercoordination-induced bond relaxation and the dual polarization by lone pairs and bond contraction. …”
