We report the phase diagrams for a square-shoulder, square-well fluids in two dimensions (2D), as well as confined in slitlike pores. The diagrams are obtained by histogram reweighting Monte Carlo simulations. The critical points are located by using finite size scaling analysis. Our calculations indicate that the phase behavior of the systems investigated is distinct from that observed in three dimensions. In particular, we have not found the liquid-liquid transition that occurs in the bulk.

Electronic confinement induced quantum dot behavior in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene.

Nanoscale

Transport at Nanoscale Interfaces Laboratory, Empa, Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, 8600 Dübendorf, Switzerland.

Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) has emerged as a versatile platform to explore correlated electron phases driven primarily by low-energy flat bands in moiré superlattices. While techniques for controlling the twist angle between graphene layers have spurred rapid experimental progress, understanding the effects of doping inhomogeneity on electronic transport in correlated electron systems remains challenging. In this work, we investigate the interplay of confinement and doping inhomogeneity on the electrical transport properties of TBLG by leveraging device dimensions and twist angles.

The ability of environmental cues to trigger alcohol-seeking behaviours is thought to facilitate problematic alcohol use. Individuals' tendency to attribute incentive salience to cues may increase the risk of addiction. We sought to study the relationship between incentive salience and alcohol addiction using non-preferring rats to model the heterogeneity of human alcohol consumption, investigating both males and females.

Background: Psilocybin therapy (PT) produces rapid and persistent antidepressant effects in major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the long-term effects of PT have never been compared with gold-standard treatments for MDD such as pharmacotherapy or psychotherapy alone or in combination.

Methods: This is a 6-month follow-up study of a phase 2, double-blind, randomised, controlled trial involving patients with moderate-to-severe MDD.

Introduction: The maternal mortality crisis in the United States disproportionately affects women who are Black, especially those living in the Gulf South. These disparities result from a confluence of healthcare, policy, and social factors that systematically place Black women at greater risk of maternal morbidities and mortality. This study protocol describes the Southern Center for Maternal Health Equity (SCMHE), a research center funded by the National Institutes of Health in 2023 to reduce preventable causes of maternal morbidity and mortality while improving health equity.

Unlabelled: Sensory filtering - prioritizing relevant stimuli while ignoring irrelevant ones - is crucial for animals to adapt and survive in complex environments. While this phenomenon has been primarily studied in organisms with complex nervous systems, it remains unclear whether simpler organisms also possess such capabilities. Here, we studied temporal information processing in , a freshwater planarian flatworm with a primitive nervous system.
