Diagnosis of sunscreen residue on skin with portable Raman microscope by Li, Yihan

“…It is well known that ultraviolet ray (UVR) irradiation can cause cutaneous damage, hence dermatologists encourage people to use sunscreen to absorb or reflect a number of the sun's UV radiation on the skin exposed to sunlight. In recent years, sunscreen is extensively used in our daily life to protect the damage to our skin by the sun. …”

Spin-ice physics and phase transitions in cadmium cyanide by Coates, CS

“…Ice-rules-obeying states are characterised by an absence of long range order, leading to a manifold of degenerate ground states, extensive residual entropy and exotic excitations; in spin-ices, these excitations correspond to topological defects in the form of effective magnetic monopoles. …”

Magnetic field control of the optical spin Hall effect by Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Shelykh, Ivan A., Morina, Skender

“…We investigate theoretically the effect of an external magnetic field on polarization patterns appearing in quantum microcavities due to the optical spin Hall effect. We show that increase of the magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the cavity resulting in the increase of the Zeeman splitting leads to the transition from azimuthal separation of polarizations to their radial separation. …”
