A peaked ion temperature profile is observed inside the magnetic island during mode locking after the back transition from H mode to L mode in JT-60U. The thermal diffusivity evaluated inside the magnetic island is 0.1 m(2)/s, which is much smaller than that outside the magnetic island by an order of magnitude. The present experiment gives clear evidence that ion heat transport inside a magnetic island can bifurcate and the transport level can be suppressed to the very low level associated with the strong flow shear at the boundary.

Importance: Opioid use disorder (OUD) impacts millions of people worldwide. Prior studies investigating its underpinning neural mechanisms have not often considered how brain signals evolve over time, so it remains unclear whether brain dynamics are altered in OUD and have subsequent behavioral implications.

Objective: To characterize brain dynamic alterations and their association with cognitive control in individuals with OUD.

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.

Resting-state functional connectivity analyses have been used to examine synchrony in neural networks in substance use disorders (SUDs), with the default mode network (DMN) one of the most studied. Prior research has generally found less DMN synchrony during use and greater synchrony during cessation, although little research has utilized this method with opioid use. This study examined resting brain activity in treatment-seeking persons who use opioids at two points-when using opioids and when opioid-free-to determine whether the DMN exhibits different levels of connectivity during opioid use and cessation and whether differences in connectivity predict subsequent relapse.

The presence of island grains in the initial finished sheets of grain-oriented electrical steel is inevitable in the preparation of ultra-thin strips. Owing to their distinctive shape and size effects, their deformation behavior during rolling differs from that of grain-oriented electrical steels of conventional thickness. This study focuses on the orientation evolution and deformation heterogeneity of island grains during rolling.
