Diffusively coupled chemical oscillators can exhibit a wide variety of complex spatial patterns. In this paper, we show that a ring of relaxation oscillators diffusively coupled through the inhibitory species leads to remarkable spatiotemporal patterns in the regime where there is a large separation of time scales between the activator and the inhibitor dynamics. The origin of these complex patterns can be traced back to a preponderance of antiphase synchronized states in the space of attractors. We provide an analytical explanation for the existence and stability of the antiphase synchronized states by examining the limit of extreme time scale separation. Numerical results on rings with small numbers of oscillators show that an explosion of patterns occurs for a ring with five oscillators.

Two-dimensional (2D) vibrational spectroscopy is a powerful means of investigating the structure and dynamics of complex molecules in condensed phases. However, even in theory, analysis of 2D spectra resulting from complex inter- and intra-molecular motions using only molecular dynamics methods is not easy. This is because molecular motions comprise complex multiple modes and peaks broaden and overlap owing to various relaxation processes and inhomogeneous broadening.

Background: Neural activity and subjective experiences indicate that breath-awareness practices, which focus on mindful observation of breath, promote tranquil calm and thoughtless awareness.
Purpose: This study explores the impact of tristage Ānāpānasati-based breath meditation on electroencephalography (EEG) oscillations and self-reported mindfulness states in novice meditators following a period of effortful cognition.
Methods: Eighty-nine novice meditators (82 males; Mean Age = 24.
Coherent Exciton Spin Relaxation Dynamics and Exciton Polaron Character in Layered Two-Dimensional Lead-Halide Perovskites.

The quantum-well-like two-dimensional lead-halide perovskites exhibit strongly confined excitons due to the quantum confinement and reduced dielectric screening effect, which feature intriguing excitonic effects. The ionic nature of the perovskite crystal and the "softness" of the lattice induce the complex lattice dynamics. There are still open questions about how the soft lattices decorate the nature of excitons in these hybrid materials.

In this Letter, by interfacing traditional semiconductor quantum dots with industry-grade plasmonic transducer technology, we demonstrate that the near-field-induced thermal gradient can facilitate the requisite population inversion for coherent phonon amplification and lasing at the nanoscale. Our detailed analysis uncovers both the characteristics and parameter sensitivity of inversion and relaxation oscillations in the system, thereby unveiling hitherto unexplored opportunities for leveraging plasmonic near-field effects in the context of quantum thermodynamics and phononics.

Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) is an audio-visual phenomenon that has recently become popular. Many people have reported experiencing a tingling-like sensation through their body while watching audio/video clips known as ASMR clips. People capable of having such experiences have also reported improved overall well-being and feeling relaxed.
