PUERTO RICO : A NATIONAL HISTORY / by Meléndez Badillo, Jorell A., author 656083

“…This resulted in the proliferation of unsuccessful slave revolts and, in 1868, an insurrection that declared the Republic of Puerto Rico, which only lasted 48 hours. Puerto Rico's major regime change came in 1898 with the US occupation. …”

Ultrafast modulation of exciton – plasmon coupling in a monolayer WS2 – Ag nanodisk hybrid system by Du, Wei, Zhao, Jiaxin, Zhao, Weijie, Zhang, Shunping, Xu, Hongxing, Xiong, Qihua

“…Utilizing transient absorption pump–probe spectroscopy, here we report an ultrafast modulation of the exciton–plasmon coupling in a monolayer WS2–Ag nanodisk hybrid system that displays Fano resonance at the steady-state regime. Specifically, the instant switch-off of the Fano resonance was observed upon the femtosecond pump excitation, characterized by the photoinduced absorption signal at the Fano resonance frequency. …”

Effects of infilled wall opening on load resisting capacity of RC frames to mitigate progressive collapse risk by Qian, Kai, Lan, Dong-Qiu, Fu, Feng, Li, Bing

“…The two-bay and three-story RC frames were tested using a pushdown loading regime. It was found that the infill walls could increase the first peak load by 256%. …”

A BIT does go a long way: the positive effect of bilateral investment treaties on China's foreign direct investment inflows by Liow, Karyn Sze Min

“…Such heterogeneous treatment effects suggest that China’s BIT policy in the 1980s was a strategic one – it selectively concluded BITs with the most promising economic partners in the early period of its BIT regime. It then gradually broadened the BIT network to more partner countries as its diplomatic relations expanded over time.…”

Dimensionality-dependent type-II Weyl semimetal state in Mo₀.₂₅W₀.₇₅Te₂ by Li, Peiling, Deng, Ya, Hsu, Chuang-Han, Zhu, Chao, Cui, Jian, Yang, Xue, Zhou, Jiadong, Hung, Yi-Chun, Fan, Jie, Ji, Zhongqing, Qu, Fanming, Shen, Jie, Yang, Changli, Jing, Xiunian, Lin, Hsin, Liu, Zheng, Lu, Li, Liu, Guangtong

“…Here, by selecting a special sample with the thickness gradient across two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) regime, we show strong evidences that Mo$_{0.25}$W$_{0.75}$Te$_{2}$ is a type-II Weyl semimetal by observing the following two dimensionality-dependent transport features: 1) A chiral-anomaly-induced anisotropic magneto-conductivity enhancement, proportional to the square of in-plane magnetic field (B$_{in}$$^{2}$); 2) An additional quantum oscillation with thickness-dependent phase shift. …”

Transient dynamics of a one-dimensional Holstein polaron under the influence of an external electric field by Huang, Zhongkai, Chen, Lipeng, Zhou, Nengji, Zhao, Yang

“…In particular, at variance with the case of an infinite linear chain, no steady state is found in a finite-sized ring within the anti-adiabatic regime. For strong diagonal coupling, the multi-math formula Anstaz is found to be highly accurate, and the phonon confinement gives rise to exciton localization and decay of the Bloch oscillations.…”

Observation of a Prethermal U(1) Discrete Time Crystal by Stasiuk, Andrew, Cappellaro, Paola

“…In addition to observing the signature period-doubling behavior, we show the existence of a long-lived prethermal regime whose lifetime is significantly enhanced by strengthening an emergent U(1) conservation law. …”

Fragmented and fitful: India’s energy diplomacy by Chaudhuri, PP

“…This has not been an easy process and the recently elected Narendra Modi government is just the latest regime to announce ambitious plans for reform. There are numerous reasons for this having proved to be such an onerous task: natural resources are treated as government assets, energy regulation is divided between the federal and state governments, and the domination of inefficient state-owned enterprises has resulted in a sector shot through with corruption and political interests. …”

A length-adjustable vacuum-powered artificial muscle for wearable physiotherapy assistance in infants by Gollob, Samuel Dutra, Mendoza, Mijaíl Jaén, Koo, Bon Ho Brandon, Centeno, Esteban, Vela, Emir A., Roche, Ellen T.

“…This is crucial in applications such as infant physical therapy where the device must adapt to the growth of the patient during a 6-month treatment regime without actuator replacement. The ability to adjust the length of the VPAM on demand offers a significant advantage over traditional fixed-length actuators, making it a promising solution for soft robotics. …”

Inferring electrospray emission characteristics from molecular dynamics and simulated retarding potential analysis by Schroeder, Madeleine, Gallud, Ximo, Petro, Elaine, Jia-Richards, Oliver, Lozano, Paulo C

“…In this work, we present coordinated molecular dynamics, ion cluster acceleration, and retarding potential analysis simulations to determine cluster fragmentation behavior in a realistic emitter geometry for electrosprays operating in the pure ionic regime. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to determine the fragmentation rates of ionic liquid clusters as a function of internal energy, electric field strength, and cluster size. …”
