Association of platinum-based chemotherapy with live birth and infertility in female survivors of adolescent and young adult cancer.

Objective: To estimate the effect of platinum-based chemotherapy on live birth (LB) and infertility after cancer, in order to address a lack of treatment-specific fertility risks for female survivors of adolescent and young adult cancer, which limits counseling on fertility preservation decisions.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: US administrative database.

Ultrafast spin dynamics: complementing theoretical analyses by quantum state measures.

In theoretical analyses of ultrafast spin dynamics simulated phenomena are commonly discussed in terms of observables. In this paper we report on possible benefits of complementing such studies by quantum state (QS) measures. These measures quantify specific properties of QSs, e.

Thermal Hall Effect of Magnons in Collinear Antiferromagnetic Insulators: Signatures of Magnetic and Topological Phase Transitions.

We demonstrate theoretically that the thermal Hall effect of magnons in collinear antiferromagnetic insulators is an indicator of magnetic and topological phase transitions in the magnon spectrum. The transversal heat current of magnons caused by a thermal gradient is calculated for an antiferromagnet on a honeycomb lattice. An applied magnetic field drives the system from the antiferromagnetic phase via a spin-flop phase into the field-polarized phase.

Adlayer influence on Dirac-type surface state at W(110).

In a combined experimental and theoretical study, we investigated how Fe and Co adlayers on W(110) affect the Dirac-type surface state (DSS). Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy data show an increase in binding energy of 75 meV and 107 meV for Fe and Co, respectively. In order to identify the origin of the energy shift we performed first-principles calculations of the surface electronic structure.

Orbital Magnetic Moment of Magnons.

In experiments and their interpretation usually the spin magnetic moment of magnons is considered. In this Letter, we identify a complementing orbital magnetic moment of magnons brought about by spin-orbit coupling. Our microscopic theory uncovers that spin magnetization M^{S} and orbital magnetization M^{O} are independent quantities; they are not necessarily collinear.
