Using Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations measured in URu2Si2 over a broad range in a magnetic field of 11-45 T, we find a cascade of field-induced Fermi surface changes within the hidden order phase I and further signatures of oscillations within field-induced phases III and V [previously discovered by Kim et al., [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 256401 (2003)]. A comparison of kinetic and Zeeman energies indicates a pocket-by-pocket polarization of the Fermi surface leading up to the destruction of the hidden order phase I at ≈35 T. The anisotropy of the Zeeman energy driving the transitions in URu2Si2 points to an itinerant hidden order parameter involving quasiparticles whose spin degrees of freedom depart significantly from those of free electrons.

The study of transient and variable events, including novae, active galactic nuclei, and black hole binaries, has historically been a fruitful path for elucidating the evolutionary mechanisms of our universe. The study of such events in the millimeter and submillimeter is, however, still in its infancy. Submillimeter observations probe a variety of materials, such as optically thick dust, which are hard to study in other wavelengths.

In ordered magnets, the elementary excitations are spin waves (magnons), which obey Bose-Einstein statistics. Similarly to Cooper pairs in superconductors, magnons can be paired into bound states under attractive interactions. The Zeeman coupling to a magnetic field is able to tune the particle density through a quantum critical point, beyond which a 'hidden order' is predicted to exist.

These cognitive impairments, however, are transient when they first appear and can fluctuate across disease progression. Here, we investigate the neural mechanisms underlying fluctuations of performance in amnestic mice.

In order to improve predictability of outcome and reduce costly rounds of trial-and-error, machine learning models have been of increasing importance in the field of synthetic biology. Besides applications in predicting genome annotation, process parameters and transcription initiation frequency, such models have also been of help for pathway optimization. The latter is a common strategy in metabolic engineering and improves the production of a desirable compound by optimizing enzyme expression levels of the production pathway.

Concrete compressive strength is a critical parameter in construction and structural engineering. Destructive experimental methods that offer a reliable approach to obtaining this property involve time-consuming procedures. Recent advancements in artificial neural networks (ANNs) have shown promise in simplifying this task by estimating it with high accuracy.
