We demonstrate theoretically the bundle emission of n strongly correlated phonons in an acoustic cavity QED system. The mechanism relies on Stokes resonances that generate super-Rabi oscillations between states with a large difference in their number of excitations, which, combined with dissipation, transfer coherently pure n-phonon states outside of the cavity. This process works with close to perfect purity over a wide range of parameters and is tunable optically with well-resolved operation conditions. This broadens the realm of quantum phononics, with potential applications for on-chip quantum information processing, quantum metrology, and engineering of new types of quantum devices, such as optically heralded n-phonon guns.

Stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy is a powerful super-resolution imaging technique that only recently entered the field of mitosis, where it proved to be invaluable for studying various microtubule classes, kinetochore-microtubule attachments and chromosome segregation errors. Here, we describe immunofluorescence combined with STED microscopy as a method for analyzing microtubules and kinetochore-microtubule attachments in human mitotic spindles. We also describe live-cell STED microscopy as a method for single-plane short-term imaging of transient processes in crowded spindle areas.

We report the synthesis and characterization of pure CuO and CuO-ZnO nanostructured composite thin films sprayed on particle-free glass substrates using chemical spray pyrolysis method. The films were systematically analyzed through microstructural, morphological, chemical, and gas-sensing studies. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies confirmed the polycrystalline nature of the films, with a predominant monoclinic phase along the (002) direction.

Climate mitigation policies have broad environmental and socioeconomic impacts and thus underpin progress towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through national-scale integrated modeling, we explore the spillover effects of China's long-term climate mitigation pathways (CMPs) on achieving all 17 SDGs, and then identify a cost-effective CMP for China with co-benefits for sustainability. Our analysis indicates that the 9 original CMPs and 180 bundled CMPs can both substantially boost the SDGs, resulting in an increase of 6.

Type IV gas cylinders are widely used in the field of vehicles due to their advantages such as light weight, cleanliness, and low cost. Ramie fiber/degradable epoxy resin composites (RFRDE) provide new ideas for the material selection of Type IV gas cylinders due to their advantages of low carbon emissions, low environmental pollution, and renewable resource utilization. However, the poor interfacial bonding strength and moisture resistance between polyethylene plastics and RFRDE have limited their application areas.
