Research on manipulating materials using light has garnered significant interest, yet examples of controlling electronic polarization in magnetic materials remain scarce. Here, the hysteresis of electronic polarization in the anti-ferromagnetic semiconductor FePS is demonstrated via light. Below the Néel temperature, linear dichroism (i.

Methods: ASCO convened an Expert Panel of medical oncology, thoracic surgery, radiation oncology, pathology, cancer genetics, and advocacy experts to conduct an updated literature search, which included systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and prospective and retrospective comparative observational studies published from 2016 through 2024. Outcomes of interest included survival, disease-free or recurrence-free survival, and quality of life.
This paper presents the reversible transformation between two polymorphs of a hexacatenar liquid crystal () with distinct fluorescence colors at room temperature (RT). This method utilizes mechanical pressure (mechanochromism) and an electric field (E-field-chromism). The molecule (), designed with a pyrene core and 1,2,3-triazole linkers, exhibits a blue-emissive crystalline (CRY) polymorph () and a green-emissive liquid crystalline (LC) polymorph () at RT, depending on the cooling rate from the liquid phase.

Preventing primary varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection is crucial in these populations to mitigate morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the live attenuated MAV/06 varicella vaccine in pediatric patients post-HSCT and post-chemotherapy.

Crustaceans residing in deep-sea hydrothermal vents, recognized as one of Earth's extreme environments, may have adapted to withstand severe conditions, including elevated temperatures and pressure. This study compares the exoskeletons of two vent crustaceans (bythograeid crab sp.
