Experimental and theoretical Stark broadening studies of the Paschen beta line of hydrogen (lambda=1.28 microm) are reported. Line shape measurements were performed at electron densities of the plasma between 3.5 x 10(15) cm(-3) and 7.5 x 10(15) cm(-3), applying as the light source a wall-stabilized arc operated at atmospheric pressure in a helium-hydrogen gas mixture. The radiation of the plasma, emitted from nearly homogeneous plasma layers in the end-on direction, was registered with the use of a grating spectrometer equipped with a charge coupled device detector. The measured light outputs were calibrated against signals obtained from a tungsten strip radiation standard. The experimentally determined line profiles are compared with results of new Stark broadening calculations based on simulation techniques. The measured broadening, shift, and asymmetry parameters are also compared with results of previous Stark broadening calculations and other experimental data obtained at electron densities higher as well as lower than ours.

Article Synopsis
- * By analyzing data from the Million Veteran Program and other cohorts, the study identifies 63 genetic loci linked to AMD, including 30 that were previously unknown, highlighting significant differences in risk among various ancestries.
- * The findings reveal that certain genetic risk factors, like those found in the CFH locus, have varying effects based on ancestry, suggesting that targeted therapies could be developed by considering these genetic differences.

Pharmaceutical tablets need to have a homogenous chemical structure, especially in cases where the patient may divide the tablet in half prior to consumption. This work aims to demonstrate the viability of using laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for analyzing the homogeneity and determining the chemical composition of losartan potassium tablets. This was accomplished by obtaining the spectra of 10 tablet points in 30 successive laser pulses, which revealed four main peaks (C, H, N, and O) as well as a high concentration of calcium and potassium in the core tablets and titanium in the coating-all of which are excellent analytical objectives for LIBS.

Er-doped glasses and fibers with broadband near infrared (NIR) emission have been widely applied in EDFA. Limited by optical gain band of Er-doped glasses and fibers, it was hardly meet to the demands of broadband amplification in the C + L band. In this work, six glass matrixes were employed for discussing the influence of glass matrix on the Stark splitting of Er and the wavelength of laser output and amplification.

The concept of ferroelectric polarons is proposed to partially explain the exceptional optoelectronic properties observed in lead halide perovskites (LHPs). It is intriguing but unclear how this proposal, which involves local or transient polarizations, applies in general to 2D LHPs with long-range ferroelectricity. Here, this work presents a pioneering time-domain experimental investigation of polarons in ferroelectric (IA)(MA)PbBr (IMPB; IA is isoamylammonium and MA is methylammonium) using transient absorption spectroscopy.
