The 9Be(32Ar, 31Ar)X reaction, leading to the 5/2+ ground state of a nucleus at the proton drip line, has a cross section of 10.4(13) mb at a beam energy of 65.1 MeV/nucleon. This translates into a spectroscopic factor that is only 24(3)% of that predicted by the many-body shell-model theory. We introduce refinements to the eikonal reaction theory used to extract the spectroscopic factor to clarify that this very strong reduction represents an effect of nuclear structure. We suggest that it reflects correlation effects linked to the high neutron separation energy (22.0 MeV) for this state.

A combination of femtosecond stimulated Raman scattering and surface-enhanced Raman scattering, termed surface-enhanced stimulated Raman scattering (SE-FSRS), was proposed to leverage both temporal precision and sensitivity for advanced molecular dynamics analysis. During the initial successful implementations of this approach, unexpected spectral distortions were observed, and several potential explanations were proposed. Further progress in this novel technique and its broader implementation requires a profound understanding of the factors influencing the shape of the registered spectra and the underlying mechanisms.

Background: Loss-of-function FLG-mutation (FLGmut) carriers are at increased risk of developing atopic dermatitis (AD), characterized by earlier onset and more severe disease. AD is driven by a complex interplay between skin barrier function, Th2 and Th2 dominant immune dysregulation and dysbiosis. Results from the STOP AD study suggest two early, initiating AD-pathogenetic pathways; a FLGmut-related skin barrier deficiency pathway, and an immune function-related inflammatory pathway.

Microemulsions (MEs) are homogeneous, isotropic, transparent, and thermodynamically stable mixtures of water, oil, and surfactants. Their unique properties have garnered increasing interest across various fields, including chemistry, pharmacology, biotechnology, and biology. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of ME compositions, their macroscopic appearances, and the roles of their essential components - oil, water, surfactant, and co-surfactant - in controlling the nature and stability of MEs.

The amorphous/crystalline (A/C) assembly in molecular solids has a direct bearing on their attributes and applications, including mechanical, pharmaceutical, electronic and photophysical. A systematic analysis of the molecular features and interactions that determine the predilection towards the A, C or bi-stable A-C states is critical. This fundamental problem is addressed through an exhaustive investigation of a large family of alkoxyalkyl diaminodicyanoquinodimethanes (ROR'-DADQs); enhancement of their fluorescence from the solution, to the A, to the C state serves as an excellent signature of the phase preference and temporal stability.
