Toward Detection of Nocturnal Hypoglycemia in People With Diabetes Using Consumer-Grade Smartwatches and a Machine Learning Approach.

Background: Nocturnal hypoglycemia poses significant risks to individuals with insulin-treated diabetes, impacting health and quality of life. Although continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems reduce these risks, their poor accuracy at low glucose levels, high cost, and availability limit their use. This study examined physiological biomarkers associated with nocturnal hypoglycemia and evaluated the use of machine learning (ML) to detect hypoglycemia during nighttime sleep using data from consumer-grade smartwatches.

The effect of work function during electron spectroscopy measurements in Scanning Field-Emission Microscopy.

Electron spectroscopy proves to be a handy tool in material science. Combination of electron spectroscopy and scanning probe microscopy is possible through Scanning Field Emission Microscopy (SFEM), where a metallic probe positioned close to the surface is used as an electron source. However, using this not too much technologically demanding technique, it looks like the compromise between the lateral resolution and spectroscopic clarity must be considered.

Compact setup for spin-, time-, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

We present a compact setup for spin-, time-, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. A 10 kHz titanium sapphire laser system delivers pulses of 20 fs duration, which drive a high harmonic generation-based source for ultraviolet photons at 21 eV for photoemission. The same laser also excites the sample for pump-probe experiments.

Early Stages of Ultrafast Spin Dynamics in a 3d Ferromagnet.

Prior to the development of pulsed lasers, one assigned a single local temperature to the lattice, the electron gas, and the spins. With the availability of ultrafast laser sources, one can now drive the temperature of these reservoirs out of equilibrium. Thus, the solid shows new internal degrees of freedom characterized by individual temperatures of the electron gas T_{e}, the lattice T_{l} and the spins T_{s}.

Ultrafast demagnetization in iron: Separating effects by their nonlinearity.

The laser-driven ultrafast demagnetization effect is one of the long-standing problems in solid-state physics. The time scale is given not only by the transfer of energy, but also by the transport of angular momentum away from the spin system. Through a double-pulse experiment resembling two-dimensional spectroscopy, we separate the different pathways by their nonlinear properties.
