AMoRE searches for the neutrinoless double beta decay using 100 kg of enriched ^{100}Mo. Scintillating molybdate crystals coupled with a metallic magnetic calorimeter operate at milli-Kelvin temperatures to measure the energy of electrons emitted in the decay. AMoRE-I is a demonstrator for the full-scale AMoRE, operated at the Yangyang Underground Laboratory for over two years.

In this work, we report on defect generation in multilayer GaSe through hydrostatic pressure quenching and UV laser irradiation. The Raman line width from the UV 266 nm irradiated sample is much wider than that in pressure-quenched GaSe, corresponding to a wider defect energy distribution range in the former sample than the latter. After quenching from 11.

Background: Monkeypox (Mpox), is a disease of global public health concern, as it does not affect only countries in western and central Africa.

Aim: To assess Burundi healthcare workers (HCWs)s' level of knowledge and confidence in the diagnosis and management of Mpox.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study an online survey designed mainly from the World Health Organization course distributed among Burundi HCWs from June-July 2023.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the thermoelectric properties of Abrikosov vortices in type-II superconductors under quantum conditions, focusing on two setups: a superconductor-insulator-normal-metal junction and a scanning tunneling microscope tip over the superconductor.
  • The strong breaking of particle-hole symmetry in these vortices leads to a significant thermoelectric response, predicting thermovoltage values of a few mV/K at temperatures near absolute zero.
  • The study finds favorable thermoelectric coefficients, with a figure of merit (ZT) around 1 for the S-I-N junction and over 3 when using the STM junction, suggesting potential applications as low-temperature thermocouples or in detecting single low-energy photons.
