Strain superlattices (SL) in 2D materials like graphene provide an ideal test bed for generating flat bands and exploring the effects of strong correlations. Here we report STM/STS measurements on an engineered SL generated by placing graphene on a periodic array of silica nanospheres. A pseudomagnetic field as high as 55 T is observed along with the formation of pseudo-Landau levels (pLLs), not only at the expected integer values but also at fractional values.

This was followed by compression-moulding as well as solution-casting to make PVDF/Li-AHA composite thin films. FTIR analysis established interactions between the -CF groups in PVDF with amine functional moieties of Li-AHA.

- The study focuses on understanding the types of parasites that affect domestic goats in the tropical monsoon region of Kerala, India, where the warm and humid climate helps these parasites thrive.
- Researchers looked at 227 goats but studied 30 in detail to find different types of parasites that can cause health problems, like fever and anemia.
- They wanted to see how these parasites spread, how they affect the goats' health, and if there are multiple infections happening at the same time.
Purpose: Ionizing radiation-based technologies are extensively used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. While utilizing the technologies, exposure to a certain amount of radiation is unavoidable. Data can be obtained from participants who received radiation during medical imaging and therapeutic purposes to predict the effects of low-dose radiation.
