Effect of strong electric fields on material responses : the Bloch oscillation resonance in high field conductivities by Singh, Satyvir, Battiato, Marco

“…We then extend the method to strong electric fields and show how the responses are deviated from the low-field ones and the transition to a dampened Bloch oscillation regime. Most importantly, we report the observation of a new regime induced by the resonance between the standard low-field response and Bloch oscillations.…”

Accuracy of second order perturbation theory in the polaron and variational polaron frames by Lee, Chee Kong, Moix, Jeremy, Cao, Jianshu

“…In the study of open quantum systems, the polaron transformation has recently attracted a renewed interest as it offers the possibility to explore the strong system-bath coupling regime. Despite this interest, a clear and unambiguous analysis of the regimes of validity of the polaron transformation is still lacking. …”

Delocalized Davydov D1 Ansatz for the Holstein polaron by Sun, Jin, Duan, Liwei, Zhao, Yang

“…The delocalized D1 Ansatz lowers the ground-state energies at the Brillouin zone boundary significantly compared with the Toyozawa and Global-Local Ansätze in the weak coupling regime, while considerable improvement is demonstrated to have been achieved over the entire Brillouin zone in the strong coupling regime. …”

Rifaximin potentiates clarithromycin against Mycobacterium abscessus in vitro and in zebrafish by Goh, Boon Chong, Larsson, Simon, Dam, Linh Chi, Ling, Sharon Yan Han, Chua, Patrina Wei Lin, Abirami, R., Singh, Samsher, Ong, Ernest Jun Long, Teo, Jeanette W. P., Ho, Peiying, Ingham, Philip William, Pethe, Kevin, Dedon, Peter C.

“…Because of its extensive innate resistance to numerous antibiotics, treatment options are limited, often resulting in poor clinical outcomes. Current treatment regimens usually involve a combination of antibiotics, with clarithromycin being the cornerstone of NTM treatments.…”

Fluid-fluid displacement in porous-media microfluidics by Qiu, Yu

“…We first develop a phase-field model to simulate two-phase flow with moving contact lines in the partial wetting regime. We construct a self-consistent formulation of fluid-solid surface energy which allows prescribing arbitrary static contact angles. …”

Investigating the impact of growth arrest mechanisms on tumour growth and responses to radiotherapy and hyperthermia by Colson, C

“…In each regime, we determine the biological processes that may underpin positive and negative treatment outcomes and assess which treatment (RT, HT or RT + HT) and dosing regimen maximise the reduction in tumour burden. …”
