Soft x-ray resonant magnetic powder diffraction of the ([Formula: see text]) reflection at the Ni L(2, 3) edges is used to study the magnetic and electronic properties of a series of RNiO(3) materials (with R = Pr, Nd, Eu, Ho and Y) below the metal-insulator transition. The polarization and energy dependence of the reflection gives further support for a non-collinear magnetic structure and charge disproportionation in the whole RNiO(3) series. Only small changes in the spectra of the magnetic ([Formula: see text]) reflection and in the absorption spectra could be detected. The results are discussed with comparison to charge transfer multiplet calculations. Our results emphasize that the lighter and heavier RNiO(3) compounds are very similar from the point of view of their local electronic and magnetic state despite the strong change of the metal-to-insulator transition temperature.

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is increasingly targeted by various noninvasive transcranial magnetic stimulation or transcranial current stimulation protocols in a range of neuropsychiatric and other brain disorders. The rationale for this therapeutic modulation remains elusive. A model is proposed, and up-to-date evidence is discussed, suggesting that the dlPFC is a high-level cortical centre where uncertainty management, movement facilitation, and cardiovascular control processes are intertwined and integrated to deliver optimal behavioural responses in particular environmental or emotional contexts.

Background: The development of heat transfer devices used for heat conversion and recovery in several industrial and residential applications has long focused on improving heat transfer between two parallel plates. Numerous articles have examined the relevance of enhancing thermal performance for the system's performance and economics. Heat transport is improved by increasing the Reynolds number as the turbulent effects grow.

Compact high-bandwidth single-beam optically-pumped magnetometer for biomagnetic measurement.

Optically-pumped magnetometer (OPM) has been of increasing interest for biomagnetic measurements due to its low cost and portability compared with superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID). Miniaturized spin-exchange-relaxation-free (SERF) OPMs typically have limited bandwidth (less than a few hundred Hertz), making it difficult to measure high-frequency biomagnetic signals such as the magnetocardiography (MCG) signal of the mouse. Existing experiments mainly use SQUID systems to measure the signal.

Stretchable microwave absorbers (SMAs) are vital for flexible electronics. Traditional SMAs display unstable tensile properties resulting from inconsistencies between the constrained conductive layer and the flexible dielectric layer. This study introduces an organohydrogel-based stretchable microwave absorber (OSMA) that incorporates an organohydrogel within an island-bridge structure.

Background: Radiofrequency (RF) transmit arrays play a crucial role in various MRI applications, offering enhanced field control and improved imaging capabilities. Designing and optimizing these arrays, particularly in high-field MRI settings, poses challenges related to coupling, resonance, and construction imperfections. Numerical electromagnetic simulation methods effectively aid in the initial design, but discrepancies between simulated and fabricated arrays often necessitate fine-tuning.
