We demonstrate high-resolution single-pixel imaging (SPI) in the visible and near-infrared wavelength ranges using an SPI framework that incorporates a novel, dedicated sampling scheme and a reconstruction algorithm optimized for the rapid imaging of highly sparse scenes at the native digital micromirror device (DMD) resolution of 1024 × 768. The reconstruction algorithm consists of two stages. In the first stage, the vector of SPI measurements is multiplied by the generalized inverse of the measurement matrix.

Glycan-mediated molecular recognition events are essential for life. NMR is widely used to monitor glycan binding to lectins in solution using isolated glycans and lectins. In this context, we herein explore diverse NMR methodologies, from both the receptor and ligand perspectives, to monitor glycan-lectin interactions under experimental conditions mimicking the native milieu inside cells and on cell surface.

Chirality - a characteristic handedness that distinguishes 'left' from 'right'-is a fundamental property of quantum particles under broken symmetry intimately connected to their spins. Chiral fermions have been identified in Weyl semimetals through their unique electrodynamics arising from 'axial' charge imbalance between pairs of chiral Weyl nodes-the topologically protected 'relativistic' crossings of electronic bands. Chiral magnetotransport phenomena critically depend on the details of electronic band structure.

Y-modified perovskite-type oxides BaCe Y O ( = 0-0.30) were synthesised and used as supports for cobalt catalysts. The influence of yttrium content on the properties of the support and catalyst performance in the ammonia synthesis reaction was examined using PXRD, STEM-EDX, and sorption techniques (N physisorption, H-TPD, CO-TPD).

Repeat expansion disorders (REDs) encompass over 50 inherited neurological disorders and are characterized by the expansion of short tandem nucleotide repeats beyond a specific repeat length. Particularly intriguing among these are multiple fragile X-associated disorders (FXds), which arise from an expansion of CGG repeats in the 5' untranslated region of the FMR1 gene. Despite arising from repeat expansions in the same gene, the clinical manifestations of FXds vary widely, encompassing developmental delays, parkinsonism, dementia, and an increased risk of infertility.
