We study dynamics of charged particle in current sheets with magnetic fluctuations. We use the adiabatic theory to describe the nonperturbed charged particle motion and show that magnetic field fluctuations destroy the adiabatic invariant. We demonstrate that the evolution of particle adiabatic invariant's distribution is described by a diffusion equation and derive analytical estimates of the rate of adiabatic invariant's diffusion. This rate is proportional to power density of magnetic field fluctuations. We compare analytical estimates with numerical simulations. We show that adiabatic invariant diffusion results in transient particles trapping in the current sheet. For magnetic field fluctuation amplitude a few times larger than a normal magnetic field component, more than 50% of transient particles become trapped. We discuss the possible consequences of destruction of adiabaticity of the charged particle motion on the state of the current sheets.

Fluidized Electrochemical Exfoliation of Layered Transition Metal Dichalcogenides toward Fast Production of High-Quality Nanosheets in the Aqueous Phase.

Nano Lett

State Key Laboratory of Chemo/Biosensing and Chemometrics, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Hunan University, Changsha 410082, China.

The transformation of bulk transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) particles into ultrathin nanosheets with both an acceptable yield and preserved crystalline integrity presents a substantial challenge in electrochemical exfoliation. This challenge arises from the continuous potential stress that the materials experience in traditional exfoliation setups. Herein, we propose a new fluidized electrochemical exfoliation (FEE) method to efficiently transform TMD powders into high-quality, few-layered TMD nanosheets in the aqueous phase.

Introduction: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a multifactorial and age-related dermatological disease that affects both males and females, usually at older ages. Traditional hair repair drugs exemplified by minoxidil have limitations such as skin irritation and hypertrichosis. Thus, attention has been shifted to the use of repurposing drugs.
