Monkeypox: A comprehensive review on mutation, transmission, pathophysiology, and therapeutics.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) is the causative agent of the monkeypox (Mpox) disease, belongs to the Orthopoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family. Due to the recent re-emergence of Mpox in 2024, this is the second time when the World Health Organization (WHO) declared Mpox as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). This review intends to offer an in-depth analysis of Mpox, including its key characteristics, epidemiological, mutation, pathophysiology, transmission, and therapeutics.

High sensitivity direct magnetic field detection based metrology for ultra-thin magnetic films and Li-ion cells.

Ultra-low magnetic field sensing is emerging as a tool for materials' diagnostics, particularly for the operando studies of electrochemical systems. A magnetic metrology system having the capability of sensing fields as low as ∼1.88 pT has been setup for such studies using a commercial atomic magnetometer.

Charge noise in low Schottky barrier multilayer tellurium field-effect transistors.

Creating van der Waals (vdW) homojunction devices requires materials with narrow bandgaps and high carrier mobilities for bipolar transport, which are crucial for constructing fundamental building blocks like diodes and transistors in a 2D architecture. Following the recent discovery of elemental 2D tellurium, here, we systematically investigate the electrical transport and flicker noise of hydrothermally grown multilayer tellurium field effect transistors. While the devices exhibit a dominant p-type behavior with high hole mobilities up to ∼242 cm V s at room temperature and almost linear current-voltage characteristics down to 77 K, ambipolar behavior was observed in some cases.

Search for Soft Unclustered Energy Patterns in Proton-Proton Collisions at 13 TeV.

The first search for soft unclustered energy patterns (SUEPs) is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1} of proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV, collected in 2016-2018 by the CMS detector at the LHC. Such SUEPs are predicted by hidden valley models with a new, confining force with a large 't Hooft coupling. In events with boosted topologies, selected by high-threshold hadronic triggers, the multiplicity and sphericity of clustered tracks are used to reject the background from standard model quantum chromodynamics.
