We probed spin-spin correlations up to 725 K with 63Cu nuclear quadrupole resonance in the S = 1 / 2 three-leg ladder Sr2Cu3O5. We present experimental evidence that below 300 K weak interladder coupling causes dimensional crossover of the spin-spin correlation length xi from the quasi-1D (xi approximately 1 / T) to the anisotropic 2D regime ( xi approximately exp2pirho(s) / T, where 2pirho(s) = 290+/-30 K is the effective spin stiffness).

Among control methods for robotic exoskeletons, biologically inspired control based on central pattern generators (CPGs) offer a promising approach to generate natural and robust walking patterns. Compared to other approaches, like model-based and machine learning-based control, the biologically inspired control provides robustness to perturbations, requires less computational power, and does not need system models or large learning datasets. While it has shown effectiveness, a comprehensive evaluation of its user experience is lacking.

We reassess the modeling of amorphous silica bilayers as a 2D classical system whose particles interact with an effective pairwise potential. We show that it is possible to reparametrize the potential developed by Roy, Heyde, and Heuer to quantitatively match the structural details of the experimental samples. We then study the glassy dynamics of the reparametrized model at low temperatures.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous disease, influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the human genome may influence the risk of developing COPD and the response to treatment. We assessed the effects of gene polymorphism of inflammatory and immune-active factors and gene-environment interaction on risk of COPD in middle-aged and older Chinese individuals.

Polarons, quasiparticles from electron-phonon coupling, are crucial for material properties including high-temperature superconductivity and colossal magnetoresistance. However, scarce studies have investigated polaron formation in low-dimensional materials with phonon polarity and electronic structure transitions. In this work, we studied polarons of tellurene, composed of chiral Te chains.

Purpose/ Hypothesis: The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of swing style (SHS, OHS) and KB mass on hip extension kinematics and kinetics in young adult females. A secondary purpose was to determine the effects of swing style and KB mass on the forces applied to the total body center of mass and KB.
