Published: April 2009

We discuss how to engineer the phase and amplitude of a complex order parameter using localized dissipative perturbations. Our results are applied to generate and control various types of atomic nonlinear matter waves (solitons) by means of localized dissipative defects.

Photosynthesis in nature begins with light harvesting. The special pigment-protein complex converts sunlight into electron excitation that is transmitted to the reaction center, which triggers charge separation. Evidence shows that quantum coherence between electron excited states is important in the excitation energy transfer process.

E3 ligase FBXW7 suppresses brown fat expansion and browning of white fat.

Joint Center for Translational Medicine, Fengxian District Central Hospital, Fengxian District, Shanghai, 201400, China.

Thermogenic fat, including brown and beige fat, dissipates heat via thermogenesis and enhances energy expenditure. Thus, its activation represents a therapeutic strategy to combat obesity. Here, we demonstrate that levels of F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7 (FBXW7), an E3 ubiquitin protein ligase, negatively correlate with thermogenic fat functionality.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on creating composite films of poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) blended with magnesium oxide quantum dots (MgO QDs) at varying concentrations, and the films were annealed at 130°C for different durations to observe changes in their properties.
  • Analysis revealed that the initial crystallinity of the PMMA films decreased with annealing but slightly improved with the diffusion and coalescence of MgO QDs, leading to the formation of larger clusters that influenced the films' structural properties.
  • The research highlights the significance of temperature and molecular forces in the evolution of the film's morphology and stability, demonstrating unique energy dissipation mechanisms and the complex interplay of inter- and intra

Chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) generates giant spin polarization in transport through chiral molecules, paving the way for novel spintronic devices and enantiomer separation. Unlike conventional transport, CISS magnetoresistance (MR) violates Onsager's reciprocal relation, exhibiting significant resistance changes when reversing electrode magnetization at zero bias. However, its underlying mechanism remains unresolved.

This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the intrinsic properties of RNiP (where R = Sm, Eu) filled skutterudite, employing the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within density functional theory (DFT) simulations using the WIEN2k framework. Structural, phonon stability, mechanical, electronic, magnetic, transport, thermal, and optical properties are thoroughly explored to provide a holistic understanding of these materials. Initially, the structural stability of SmNiP and EuNiP is rigorously evaluated through ground-state energy calculations obtained from structural optimizations, revealing a preference for a stable ferromagnetic phase over competing antiferromagnetic and non-magnetic phases.
