Trauma is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality in working-age population. Abdominal injuries comprise 20-30% of traumas. Uncontrolled bleeding is the main cause of death in 30-40% of patients.

Quasimolecular orbitals in cluster Mott insulators provide a route to tailor exchange interactions, which may yield novel quantum phases of matter. We demonstrate the cluster Mott character of the lacunar spinel GaTa_{4}Se_{8} using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the Ta L_{3} edge. Electrons are fully delocalized over Ta_{4} tetrahedra, forming quasimolecular J_{tet}=3/2 moments.

Lacunar spinels, represented by AMX compounds (A = Ga or Ge; M = V, Mo, Nb, or Ta; X = S or Se), form a unique group of ternary chalcogenide compounds. Among them, GeVS has garnered significant attention due to its distinctive electrical and magnetic properties. While previous research efforts have primarily focused on studying how this material behaves under cooling conditions, pressure is another factor that determines the state and characteristics of solid matter.

Magnetization reversal in ferro- and ferrimagnets is a well-known archetype of non-equilibrium processes, where the volume fractions of the oppositely magnetized domains vary and perfectly compensate each other at the coercive magnetic field. Here, we report on a fundamentally new pathway for magnetization reversal that is mediated by an antiferromagnetic state. Consequently, an atomic-scale compensation of the magnetization is realized at the coercive field, instead of the mesoscopic or macroscopic domain cancellation in canonical reversal processes.

Recent neutron scattering experiments suggested that frustrated magnetic interactions give rise to antiferromagnetic spiral and fractional skyrmion lattice phases in MnSc[Formula: see text]S[Formula: see text] . Here, to trace the signatures of these modulated phases, we studied the spin excitations of MnSc[Formula: see text]S[Formula: see text] by THz spectroscopy at 300 mK and in magnetic fields up to 12 T and by broadband microwave spectroscopy at various temperatures up to 50 GHz. We found a single magnetic resonance with frequency linearly increasing in field.
