Orbital stability in a classical pilot-wave system by Liu, Nicholas Z.

“…We then consider the effect of weak external forces on spin states, circular orbits arising in the absence of external forces, and show that the destabilisation of spin states depends in a complex manner on the type of external force applied. …”

Multiple scattering of light in cold atomic clouds in a magnetic field by Sigwarth, Olivier, Labeyrie, Guillaume, Delande, Dominique, Miniatura, Christian

“…We show that, for atoms with nonzero spin in their ground state, the CBS interference contrast can be increased compared to its value when B=0, a result at variance with classical samples. …”

Novel method of probe design for characterising unclassified microbial taxa in wastewater by Tan, Shi Ming

“…Shimingles; distinct clades were in line with two draft genomes recovered through genomic binning. The two genomic bins were recovered with a size of 4.92 Mbp and 4.49 Mbp respectively, and a completeness of more than 90% and a contamination of less than 4%. …”

Factor modeling for clustering high-dimensional time series by Zhang, Bo, Pan, Guangming, Yao, Qiwei, Zhou, Wang

“…Numerical illustration with both simulated data as well as a real data example is also reported. As a spin-off, the proposed new approach also advances significantly the statistical inference for the factor model of Lam and Yao. …”

A variational master equation approach to quantum dynamics with off-diagonal coupling in a sub-Ohmic environment by Sun, Ke-Wei, Fujihashi, Yuta, Ishizaki, Akihito, Zhao, Yang

“…A master equation approach based on an optimized polaron transformation is adopted for dynamics simulation with simultaneous diagonal and off-diagonal spin-boson coupling. Two types of bath spectral density functions are considered, the Ohmic and the sub-Ohmic. …”

Optical study of excitonic complexes in transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers by Bao, Di

“…The different energy splittings of the excitonic features in a magnetic field arise from several contributions, including spin magnetic moment, valley magnetic moment and atomic orbital magnetic moment. …”

Electronic structure of topological quantum materials probed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy by Schröter, N

“…Graphene is predicted to be a quantum spin Hall insulator, but due to the weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of carbon, the predicted bulk energy gap at its Dirac point remains unresolved. …”

Hand-held devices for generating force/torque perturbations by Wong, Yoke Cung.

“…The working principle is to spin the flywheel at a certain angular speed and then break this rotation motion within a very short period so that relatively high deceleration will take place and torque will be generated. …”

Topological phases with parafermions: theory and blueprints by Alicea, J, Fendley, P

“…First we generalize the intimate connection between the -symmetric Ising quantum spin chain and Majorana fermions to -symmetric chains and parafermions. …”

Gender equality, growth, and how a technological trap destroyed female work by Humphries, J, Schneider, B

“…We then explain how a crucial example of technological unemployment for women—the destruction of hand spinning during the British Industrial Revolution—contributed to the emergence of the male breadwinner family. …”

Geometric hashing for camera based localization by Tan, Wei Chian

“…During pre-processing, VCLH signature obtained from each camera pose in the 2D map is quantized into bins and inserted into a two dimensional (2D) hash table. …”

Calibration and limits of camera-based fluorescence correlation spectroscopy : a supported lipid bilayer study by Bag, Nirmalya, Sankaran, Jagadish, Paul, Alexandra, Kraut, Rachel Susan, Wohland, Thorsten

“…Using optimized experimental conditions we provide diffusion coefficients for over ten different lipid membranes consisting of one, two and three constituents, measured in over 200000 individual correlation functions. Using software binning and thus the inherent advantage of ITIR-FCS of providing multiple observation areas in a single measurement we test the FCS diffusion law and show how they can be complemented by the local information provided by the difference in cross-correlation functions (ΔCCF). …”

Fourier transform-based scalable image quality measure by Narwaria, Manish, Lin, Weisi, McLoughlin, Ian Vince, Emmanuel, Sabu, Chia, Clement Liang-Tien

“…We accommodate this fact via a simple yet effective strategy of non-uniform binning of the frequency components. This process also leads to reduced space representation of the image thereby enabling the reduced-reference (RR) prospects of the proposed scheme. …”

Measurements of the CKM angle γ at the LHCb experiment by Cheung, S

“…The subsequent <em>D</em> meson decays to the <em>K</em>_S⁰π⁺π⁻ and <em>K</em>_S⁰<em>K</em>⁺<em>K</em>⁻ final states are studied using a binned Dalitz plot analysis. The <em>D</em> strong-phase variation over the Dalitz plot is taken from measurements performed at the CLEO-c experiment, making the analysis independent of a model to describe the <em>D</em> decay amplitude. …”

Azadihomocorannulene as a heptagon-embedded diradicaloid by Hamamoto, Yosuke, Wang, Weifan, Li, Yongxin, Ito, Shingo

“…The synthesis was achieved through a mechanochemical C(sp2)-H/C(sp3)-H coupling in the presence of sodium as a key reaction. Electron spin resonance studies revealed that the neutral azapentabenzodihomocorannulene adopts a singlet diradical (diradicaloid) ground state with a small singlet-triplet energy gap of 2.1 kcal/mol. …”

Magnetism in graphene oxide induced by epoxy groups by Lee, Dongwook, Seo, Jiwon, Zhu, Xi, Cole, Jacqueline M., Su, Haibin

“…Local density approximation calculation results well reproduce the magnetic moments obtained from experiments, and these results indicate that the unpaired spin induced by the presence of epoxy groups is the origin of the magnetism. …”
